专题08 阅读理解25篇（说明文） 主题01 人与自我 Passage 1 （2026·安徽宿州·一模）Spring and Autumn Holidays for Students The 2026 Government Work Report says China will help some areas to have spring and autumn holidays for primary and secondary school students. And workers can take their holidays at different times. This policy (政策) has been tried in Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Sichuan. These holidays are good for students. They can help students reduce study pressure after long-time learning, and keep them healthy both in body and mind. With nice weather, students can go out of the classroom to do many interesting activities, like farming, watching nature and learning local culture. In this way, they can turn book knowledge into real-life experience. The holidays are also good for families. Parents can spend happy time with their children at low cost, without the crowds of busy travel seasons. Many families travel, visit relatives or go to museums together, making family relationships closer. The holidays also help local tourism and economy. However, there are some problems. The main one is that many working parents can’t look after their children during holidays. To solve this, schools offer after-school care with fun activities, and communities also have more programs for students. Holidays can be set differently according to local situations. In short, spring and autumn holidays are a great change for education. They help students grow in a healthier and more meaningful way with the help of families, schools and society. 1．What can the holidays do for students? A．Increase their study pressure. B．Keep them healthy only in body. C．Help them turn book knowledge into real-life experience. D．Let them play games all day. 2．Why are the holidays good for families? A．Parents can spend time with kids at low cost. B．Parents have to pay more for travel. C．Families can only visit museums. D．Families can’t travel during holidays. 3．What is the main problem of the policy? A．Students have no activities to join. B．Schools refuse to offer after-school care. C．Many working parents can’t look after their kids. D．Communities have no programs for students. 4．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．The holidays are bad for students’ growth B．The holidays only focus on exams C．Students grow better with the help of families, schools and society D．Families don’t need to help with the holidays Passage2 （2026·安徽滁州·一模）One morning, I stopped at my favorite restaurant to get something to eat and got comfortable at a small table. Shortly after, I noticed four young people sitting at a table near me. After simply greeting each other and ordering, they all looked at their phones and continued to do so until their orders arrived. After photographing their food, they ate, continuing to look at their phones. I was wondering why they came here to eat together. They were phubbing, or phone snubbing (冷落), a very common problem these days. You may not know the word “phubbing”, but this kind of act is not strange to you. In fact, 32% of people report that they are phubbed two or three times a day. Do you have a conversation on your phone while talking to another person face to face? Do you scroll (上下滑动) through your phone while eating with someone for fear of missing out? If your answer is yes to either of them, you might be a “phubber”. The writer of The Psychology of Phubbing did a survey and found that the influence of phubbing on relationships can be very harmful or destructive. For example, children felt that parents who phubbed them didn’t care about them. This led to a feeling of being left out. Also, partners who were phubbed might be less satisfied with the relationship because of jealousy (嫉妒) and worries. Phubbing is a learned act, so unlearning it is possible. Start by accepting the problem. Set a time limit (限制) for not using your phone. Create areas where phones are off-limits. Don’t let the modern technology which is designed (设计) to bring people together separate you from others. 1．What did the four young people keep doing before their orders arrived? A．Greeting each other. B．Looking at their phones. C．Photographing their food. D．Talking with each other. 2．How does the writer introduce the word “phubber” in Paragraph 3? A．By raising questions. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving reasons. D．By giving examples. 3．What does the underlined word “destructive” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．微乎其微的 B．积极正向的 C．有破坏性的 D．重要的 4．What is the main purpose of the text? A．To warn people against phubbing. B．To show how phones bring people closer. C．To present the advantages of modern technology. D．To show how people protect their phones. Passage 3 （2026·安徽亳州·一模）How often do you drink milk tea? In China, milk tea is very popular. Now, some Chinese milk tea brands (品牌) are also becoming successful in other countries. One popular brand, Chagee, recently started selling its shares in the US. On its first day, people thought the company was worth about 55 billion yuan. This is a very big success. How did Chagee do it? The company has a good plan. It doesn’t make too many different drinks. It only focuses on a few best-selling ones. Also, it uses special machines. These machines can make a drink very quickly, in just eight seconds. This smart plan makes their work very efficient. Their products sell out fast, and the cost of moving products around is very low. This strong system is very important for doing business in other countries. An expert said that while others can copy drink styles or prices, it’s hard to copy this efficient system. Other Chinese brands are also growing around the world. Mixue has many stores in other countries. ChaPanda has opened stores in South Korea, Thailand, and Spain. These brands try to fit into new places. They change their flavors (口味) to match local tastes. For example, in Southeast Asia, Chagee uses popular local tea flavors. But they also keep their Chinese style, using things like Peking Opera masks in their designs. This mix of new and old helps them win fans everywhere. 1．What happened to Chagee when it started selling its shares in the US? A．It opened 4,800 new stores worldwide.

Passage 4 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Wenzhou No. 23 Middle School started a Chinese Herbal Medicine Club in 2022. It aims to help students develop an interest in traditional Chinese medicine. Since then, the club has helped students explore the world of Chinese herbs (草药) through interesting, hands-on activities. The program is divided into three parts: knowing the herbs, planting the herbs and making herbal sachets (香囊). Students discover the names, uses and stories behind many herbs. “I learned that Chinese medicine is a big part of our country’s ancient culture,” said Cao Chenhao, an 8th grader. “Some foods we eat, like yams (山药) and red dates, are medicines too.” Planting the herbs is the most exciting activity for many. Students have learned patience, responsibility and how to care for living plants. “Our teacher gave each of us different seeds (种子),” said 7th grader Wu Xuanyi. “We planted and watered them ourselves.” The students also get to make herbal sachets. Guided by the teacher, they mix herbs and create their own sachets. “Although I failed at first, I still remember how great it felt when I finally shaped mine correctly.

Reading under big trees may sound simple, but it’s a wonderful way to help students enjoy reading and get close to nature. At Yangliu Primary School in Dongcheng, Lichuan, the “Reading Under Big Trees” activity lets children read in the arms of nature, making the reading experience more fun and relaxing. School leaders said many students feel stressed when reading in classrooms. They hope this activity can break the limits (限制) of traditional reading spaces. Under the thick and green trees, the students sit together, holding their favorite books. The wind blows softly, making the leaves rustle (沙沙作响)—this sound mixes with the turning of book pages, creating a piece of beautiful “reading music”. Some students read aloud and share wonderful parts of their books. Others lose themselves in the stories, smiling or thinking deeply from time to time. Zhao Jiayue, a Grade Four student, said reading under big trees makes him feel like he’s part of nature and the stories. Wu Jianhua from Grade Five also loved the activity, as he found more interesting books and made new friends through communication.

Students from Da’anzhen Middle School, Hebei, sit together, choosing grains and turning them into creative patterns (图案). With their hands, they show the beauty of traditional culture, the spirit of farming and the love for their hometown. As they create, they enjoy the fun of making grain art, feel the joy of the harvest and learn the meaning of “Who knows the rice that feeds is the fruit of hard toil (谁知盘中餐，粒粒皆辛苦)”. The school’s grain art class is open once a week. Each lesson begins with a sketch (草图), followed by choosing the right grains and finally, pasting (贴) and framing (装框). The students use simple, common grains to let their imagination run wild. “I didn’t know how to start first,” said 13-year-old Zhang Lingfei. “With my teacher’s help, I learned to match colors and paste carefully. This class has made me more patient. Seeing the grains slowly become a lively picture gives me a real sense of pride,” Zhou Yihang, aged 14, said. His favorite piece is Spring, made mostly from rice grains. He used to think rice was only for eating, but now he knows it can be art. “Through painting, I realized rice can be full of life,” he said.

Passage 2 （2026·安徽黄山·一模）In the mountainous areas of southern Anhui, the special Hui-style architecture(建筑)has stood for centuries, showing the wisdom of ancient Chinese builders. These white-walled, black-tiled houses with horse-head gables are not just beautiful, but also designed for local living conditions. The thick walls made of special clay can keep houses cool in summer and warm in winter. The skywell (天井) in the center of each house solves two problems: it lets in sunlight and fresh air, while collecting rainwater for daily use. What’s more surprising is the fireproof (防火) system—the wooden structures are covered with fire-resistant paint, and the high walls between houses stop fires from spreading. Modern architects are now studying these ancient technologies. Professor Wang from Hefei University says, “The Hui-style buildings are perfect examples. They used local materials and fitted the environment long before “eco-friendly” (环保) was popular.” In 2000, Xidi and Hongcun villages became UNESCO World Heritage Sites, bringing researchers and tourists from around the world. 1．What is the main purpose of the skywell in Hui-style houses?

It is a tiny treat that carries both sweetness and health benefits. It tastes sweet and makes your throat feel better. Many people love it. Pear-syrup candy was first made more than a thousand years ago in China. Long before it became a snack, it was a traditional medicine believed to stop coughs and calm the throat. Its recipe (食谱) was simple but magical: pear juice, honey, and a mix of herbs (药草). It’s said that in the Tang Dynasty, a government officer named Wei Zheng was known for his deep love and care for his mother. One day, his mother caught a bad cough, and he worried about her. The doctors offered medicine, but it tasted so bad that she refused to take it. So Wei Zheng tried something new. He mixed sweet pear syrup with herbs, stirring (搅拌) it carefully over the fire until it became thick. When his mother tasted it, her eyes lit up—it was sweet and pleasant! She had it every day and soon got better. Word spread quickly. People everywhere began making this “sweet medicine” for their family. In the Song Dynasty, pear-syrup candy became popular. Later in 1855, the first pear-syrup candy shop opened in Shanghai. Two others soon followed, and together they made the candy famous across China. In tea houses, people drank hot tea, listened to storytellers, and enjoyed the candy’s soft sweetness. Pear-syrup candy’s making process was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage (国家非物质文化遗产) in 2021.

In the past, phones were mainly used for making calls and sending messages. Today, communication technology is used in factories, cars and many other areas. Now, people are paying more attention to 6G, the next step in communication technology. Compared with 5G, 6G may be much faster. It may use higher-frequency signals (高频信号), so it can carry more information. In the future, downloading a 4K movie may take less than one second. 6G may also help machines “see” better. Its signals can be used not only for communication, but also for sensing. This means self-driving cars and drones (无人机) may be able to understand road conditions more clearly and avoid danger more quickly. What’s more, 6G will be smarter. Traditional networks mainly send and receive information, but 6G base stations may have AI power of their own. They may offer smarter services, find problems by themselves and improve their work in time. China has already completed the first stage of 6G technical tests and started the second stage. Experts believe 6G will be used more widely in the future and make people’s lives better. 1．What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about 6G? A．Speed. B．Cost. C．Popularity.

In Greater Manchester, UK, a new program will teach “soft skills” to Generation Z — young people born between the late 1990s and early 2010s. The program will teach useful life skills such as managing time well, recognizing false news online, staying safe on the internet, and avoiding tricks. By September, around 10, 000 students are expected to join the course. Most learning will be online, but final tests will be taken in person. Many British businesses are worried that young people may find it hard to talk confidently on the phone or during a job interview. This is because Gen Z grew up with the Internet. They are more comfortable with quick online messages than real-life conversations. A university teacher also pointed out that recent world events have made it harder for some young people to learn key social skills. Since Gen Z will make up more than a quarter of the UK’s workforce by 2025, learning these skills is very important. Also, as artificial intelligence (AI) does more technical work, humans can focus on improving soft skills — something AI cannot do well. 1．What will the new program in Greater Manchester teach? A．How to use artificial intelligence. B．Useful life skills like time management. C．Ways to improve technical knowledge. D．How to grow up with the Internet. 2．What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph? A．British businesses prefer online messages. B．Gen Z is very confident in job interviews. C．The internet helps young people talk better. D．Why Gen Z finds real-life communication difficult. 3．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To explain why soft skills are becoming more important. B．To encourage people to work in Greater Manchester. C．To show that technical skills are no longer useful. D．To describe the history of Generation Z. Passage8 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）The 2026 Government Work Report says China will let qualified (有资格的) places have spring and autumn holidays for primary and secondary school students, and workers can take holidays at different times. The policy has received wide support from both schools and families, and it will be tried in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Sichuan, and Anhui. We can benefit a lot from it. These short holidays are good for students. They can make students feel less tired after long study time and keep students healthy in body and mind. When the weather is nice, students can leave classrooms to do fun activities like farming, watching nature and learning about local culture. Then, book knowledge can become real-life experience. Families also get good things from the holidays. Parents can take time off at different times to stay with kids at a low cost, and they won’t meet too many people when traveling. Families can travel, visit relatives or go to museums together, which makes family ties stronger. The holidays also help local tourism and economy grow, making education and society both happy. But there are problems too. Many parents work and can’t look after kids during holidays. To solve this, schools offer fun activities with care services, and local communities give more programs. Children can grow better with the help of families, schools and society. 1．What does the underline word “it” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．the 2026 Government Work Report B．the policy of spring and autumn holidays C．the support from schools and families D．the idea of taking holidays at different times 2．If a city wants to start the spring and autumn holiday policy, what should be prepared?

A．They are all good with no problems. B．They are bad and should be stopped. C．They are helpful but have problems. D．They are not important for students. Passage9 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）In recent years, “city walk” has become a popular way of traveling among young people in China. Instead of visiting famous tourist spots, city walkers prefer to walk around the streets, explore local markets, and experience the everyday life of a city. Unlike traditional travel, city walk has no strict plan. People just walk at their own pace (节奏), discovering hidden cafes, old buildings, and small shops. Some even take part in guided city walk tours, where a local guide shares stories and history about the area. Why is city walk so attractive? For many, it’s a way to escape from the fast-paced life. Walking slowly allows them to relax and notice the small details they would usually miss. It also helps them connect with a city on a deeper level. Shanghai, a famous city in China, is a great place for city walks; the old streets near the Bund (外滩), the artistic vibe (氛围) of Tianzifang, and the modern look of Lujiazui all offer different experiences. Young people in Shanghai, like many others, now share their city walk routes (路线) online, encouraging others to discover the beauty of their own city. 1．What do city walkers usually do during a city walk? A．Visit famous tourist spots. B．Follow a strict travel plan. C．Explore local streets and markets. D．Take part in outdoor sports. 2．Why is city walk attractive to many people? A．It saves a lot of money. B．It helps them relax. C．It improves physical health. D．It makes them travel faster. 3．What can we learn from the passage? A．City walk is a traditional way of traveling. B．Guided city walk tours are very expensive. C．City walk is only popular in some big cities. D．The young enjoy sharing their walking routes. 主题01 人与自然 Passage 1 （2026·安徽滁州·一模）In Canada, sea ice covers western Hudson Bay for most of the year. It’s a perfect place for polar bears. However, the ice melts (融化) and they have to move to land. Without enough food, polar bears must live off fat (脂肪) in their bodies for months. Because of global warming, the period becomes longer. Here comes the question: can polar bears live well on land? According to a study in Nature, the answer is “No”. Anthony Pagano, a scientist from America, led his team to Hudson Bay. They put GPS video trackers (追踪器) on 20 bears there for three weeks in the summers between 2020 and 2023. They studied what the bears ate, how they moved, how much energy they used each day and so on. “The bears can’t find food on land. The rising temperature makes a big change to their life,” said Pagano. The ice is disappearing slowly there. Polar bears now spend around 130 days on land a year. And scientists say the number may go up by 5 to 10 days every ten years in the future. This will lead to poor health of polar bears and a big drop in their number. What’s worse, they may fight with humans when moving into new places to search for food. So it’s time for humans to take action to stop global warming. 1．What do we know about the study in Nature? A．It began about six years ago. B．A British scientist did it alone. C．It showed polar bears live a good life on land. D．It showed that polar bears can hardly survive on land. 2．What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A．Polar bears will be in great danger. B．Polar bears will only live on land in the future. C．Scientists will do more studies on polar bears. D．Polar bears will be able to find more food on land. 3．What’s the best title for the text? A．How we protect polar bears in danger B．How the polar bears can live on land C．The influence of humans on the environment D．The influence of global warming on polar bears Passage 2 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）A new study shows that nearly one in four animals living in rivers, lakes and other freshwater places are in danger of dying out. Freshwater habitats—such as rivers, lakes, wetlands—cover less than 1% of the earth’s surface, but are home to 10% of all animal species. Scientists studied about 23,500 kinds of animals that live only in freshwater, including fish, crabs, and dragonflies. They found that 24% of them are at risk, because of pollution, dams, farming, new species, climate change and other problems. Many animals face several of these dangers at the same time, which makes it even harder for them to survive. This is the first time researchers have looked at the risk to freshwater animals around the world. Earlier studies focused on land animals like mammals and birds. In North America and Europe, many big rivers have been changed by dams, putting animals at risk. In South America, the Amazon River faces threats (威胁) from forest fires and illegal (非法的) gold mining (采矿). Ash from fires and mercury (汞) from mining can pollute the water badly. “If something really bad happens, it can hurt a whole species,” one scientist said. “There is nowhere else for them to go.” 1．What does the underlined word “habitats” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．Lake. B．Home. C．Fish. D．Plant. 2．Why did the scientists do the study? A．To help people build more dams on rivers. B．To find out how many freshwater animals there are. C．To study the risk to freshwater animals around the world. D．To learn about the influence of climate change on land animals. 3．What is a common threat to freshwater animals in North America and Europe? A．Forest fires. B．Illegal mining. C．Dams on rivers. D．New kinds of animals. 4．Which of the following is the best title (标题) for the text? A．Freshwater Homes Around the World B．The Importance of the Amazon River C．How Dams Put Big Rivers at Risk D．The Danger to Freshwater Animals Passage 3 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）When there is little rain, trees in Panama’s forests have a way to stay alive. They send their roots (根) deeper into the ground to find water. But scientists say this may not be enough to help them face climate change. These forests are home to many animals and plants. They also store a lot of carbon (碳). But climate change brings hotter weather and longer dry times. Scientists wanted to know how tree roots change when there is no rain. They did a study in Panama. They put covers over some forest areas to keep out most of the rain. They also dug deep holes so roots could not get water from outside. For five years, they carried out this study and watched how the roots grew. All the forests acted the same way. When the ground got dry, many small roots near the top died. But the trees grew new roots deeper down to look for water. At the same time, helpful tiny living things in the soil helped the remaining roots get more water and food. But scientists are not sure whether this will be enough. Five years is a short time for a forest. We do not know how long trees can keep this up. If dry times last too long, some trees may not live. The forest could change in ways we cannot yet see. 1．Why did the scientists do the study? A．To see how tree roots change in dry times. B．To find enough water for tree roots. C．To know how to fight against climate change. D．To help trees grow better in dry times. 2．How did the trees act in the study? A．They lost all the water and food. B．Their new roots grew deeper. C．They helped tiny living things grow. D．The top roots look for water. 3．What does the underlined “this” refer to? A．The way trees use to stay alive in dry conditions. B．Panama’s forest. C．Climate change. D．The hotter weather. Passage 4 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Today, rockets take astronauts to space. But long before this, people were already dreaming about going to the moon. Wan Hu, born in the 1300s, was the first Chinese to try using a rocket to go to space. Chinese people began to use gunpowder (火药) in wars over 1,200 years ago. They found that the hot air from burning gunpowder could push arrows (箭) forward. By 1232, the first simple rockets, called “fire arrows,” had become common. Each rocket had a tube (管子). The tube was full of gunpowder and was tied to a stick with an arrow. One end of the tube was left open. When the gunpowder was lit, the hot air came out of the open end and pushed the rocket forward. Then people began to wonder: Can rockets be used for travel? After all, if a small rocket could move something small, a bigger one might move a person. Wan Hu wanted to have a try. He got 47 rockets and 47 helpers. He tied a chair to the rockets and added two kites. Then, he sat in the chair. He told his helpers to light all the rockets at once. There was a loud noise and lots of smoke. When the smoke was gone, Wan Hu had disappeared. Wan Hu’s idea was surely not safe. But he showed the world a dream: using rockets to fly. 1．Why was the tube used to make “fire arrows”? A．To burn sticks. B．To store gunpowder. C．To carry arrows. D．To clean air. 2．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Advantages of Wan Hu’s rockets. B．Helpers of sending Wan Hu to space. C．Wan Hu’s way of lighting rockets. D．Wan Hu’s attempt to travel with rockets. 3．What does the writer think of Wan Hu’s idea? A．Smart and simple. B．Crazy and scary. C．Unsafe but creative. D．Challenging but stupid. Passage 5 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）The deep ocean is a world of almost complete darkness. Yet, surprisingly, it shines with living light. Many sea animals have a special ability called bioluminescence — they can create their own light. This is not for beauty; it is an important tool for living. In the upper (上层的) ocean sunlight still reaches, being seen can mean danger. So some animals keep away from the light area during the day. ________ Others use light in clever ways to hide. For example, certain shrimp (虾) can light up their undersides. They make the same light as that from above. So other hunters can hardly see them from below. But why do some sea animals shine brightly when touched? There are two main reasons. First, a sudden bright shining can scare a hunter, giving the smaller animal a chance to run away. It’s like shining a bright light in the hunter’s eyes. Second, light can call for help. When tiny fishes are caught, their shining acts like a “warning”, drawing larger fish that might hit the hunter. For these slow-moving fishes, light becomes their best protection. Light is a tool for hiding, a way to run away, and a call for help — a true language of living in a dark world. According to a recent study, the bioluminescence of sea animals has many useful applications in our life... 1．What does the underlined word “bioluminescence” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．The beauty of sea life. B．The tool used by fishes. C．The danger from hunters. D．The ability to make light. 2．Which of the following can be put in ________? A．This is how animals catch shrimps. B．But no food can be found there. C．They only rise to the upper at night. D．And light can make them safer. 3．Why do some sea animals shine when touched? A．To move faster. B．To drive away hunters. C．To help larger fish. D．To look more beautiful. 4．What will probably be talked about in the end? A．The world of sea animals. B．The study of light. C．The use of bioluminescence. D．The language of fish. Passage 6 （2026·安徽蚌埠·一模）If you search for places of beauty, wetlands probably won’t be high on your list. Wetlands are areas of land that are often completely wet with water. The roles that the wetlands play in nature might go beyond many people’s imagination. Wetlands appear naturally in almost every part of the world. There are many different types of wetlands on Earth. Along with rainforests, they are among the most diverse (多样的) places on Earth. Besides natural wetlands, humans are also creating man-made ones for a number of purposes about water management. One of the main advantages of wetlands is that they can prevent floods. They do so by storing water for a certain time and then slowly releasing (释放) it over time. Wetlands operate similarly to a sponge (海绵). When it rains heavily and water levels rise, they take in the extra water which may cause floods. Then, when water levels become low later, they will release it. In many cases, wetlands offer a much more natural way than dams (坝). However, it’s important to note that wetlands, like dams, don’t stop all dangers from flooding. Wetlands also play a part in cleaning water. Farming actions and city waste are main causes of water pollution. Wetlands include plants and organisms that can reduce this pollution. Wetlands have other advantages for the environment as well. They can help to feed nearby fish populations by releasing something that can be used as food for them into rivers. Also, many animals like frogs use wetlands as baby-raising grounds because they provide the place for catching food and the water required. Although wetlands may not look pretty, it’s clear that they are able to do the important work which is necessary to make sure that the circle of life remains unbroken. 1．What are wetlands according to the passage? A．Dry land with many rare plants. B．Land areas that are often fully covered with water. C．Man-made places for water management only. D．The most beautiful natural places in the world. 2．What does the underlined word “operate” probably mean in Paragraph 3? A．Look. B．Work. C．Change. D．Form. 3．Which of the following is NOT a way wetlands help the environment? A．Cleaning water by reducing pollution. B．Providing food and living places for animals. C．Feeding nearby fish populations indirectly. D．Stopping all the flood dangers completely. 4．We can infer from the passage that ________. A．wetlands are less diverse than rainforests B．man-made wetlands have no environmental value C．wetlands are important for keeping the food chain balanced D．most people know the great importance of wetlands well Passage 7 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）In March 2026, China’s National Climate Center made an important report. It said La Niña, which had influenced global weather for a long time, ended in February 2026. Scientists are now warning that a strong El Niño event may arrive later this year. La Niña and El Niño are natural climate events in the Pacific Ocean. They can greatly change weather around the world. La Niña usually brings more rain to some places, while El Niño often causes extreme (极端) weather. La Niña usually brings more rain in parts of Asia and cooler weather in some areas. If a strong El Niño comes, many places will face high risks. There may be long-lasting high temperatures, dry weather and sudden heavy rain. Some experts even say that 2026 and 2027 could become the hottest years on record. Historical data (数据) show that strong El Niño events often lead to serious climate conditions around the world. For example, in 1997 and 2015, strong El Niño caused serious dry weather in Australia and Southeast Asia, and heavy floods in South America. These events not only influence daily life but also put pressure on the balance of nature and food supply (供应). As global warming continues, the influence of El Niño is likely to become worse. Though La Niña is less strong, it still changes weather greatly, making it necessary for countries to develop ways to warn people early about bad weather. 1．What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A．El Niño has already appeared. B．La Niña will last for another year. C．The weather will be clear soon. D．Scientists expect the coming of El Niño. 2．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．All climate events. B．La Niña and El Niño. C．The Pacific Ocean. D．Global temperatures. 3．Why does the writer mention 1997 and 2015? A．To show El Niño appears every year. B．To tell readers the history of El Niño. C．To explain how El Niño becomes strong. D．To show the serious influence of El Niño. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Two Climate Events and Their Risks B．Ways to Warn People of Bad Weather C．Global Warming: How To Deal With It D．La Niña: A Less Harmful Climate Event Passage 8 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Have you ever wondered how plants protect themselves from insects? A new study shows that some plants can “hear” insects (昆虫) eating their leaves and fight back quickly! The study, done by a team of scientists, was about tomato plants. They found that when an insect eats tomato leaves, the leaves make small vibrations (震动). The plant “feels” these vibrations and starts making a chemical (化学物质) that tastes bad to insects. This way, the insects stop eating the leaves. To test this, the scientists played recorded eating sounds to tomato plants. The plants still made the bad-tasting chemical. However, other sounds didn’t influence the plants, like wind blowing or raindrops hitting leaves. This means plants can tell the difference between “dangerous” vibrations and “safe” ones. To make this idea sounder, the scientists did another test with apple plants. They found the same result: apple leaves also made bad-tasting chemicals when they “heard” eating vibrations. Scientists say this finding could help farmers. If we understand how plants protect themselves, we might grow crops that make more of these bad-tasting chemicals to keep insects away. More research is needed to learn how different plants “hear” vibrations, but this study is a great start. 1．What is the new study mainly about? A．When tomatoes made vibration sounds. B．How plants reacted to insect-eating vibrations. C．Where tomatoes were planted on farms. D．Why insects produced different chemicals. 2．What did the scientists do to test tomato plants? A．They put some real insects on leaves. B．They grew the plants in windy weather. C．They played recorded sounds to the plants. D．They recorded the sounds of plants’ growth. 3．Why did scientists do tests on apple plants in paragraph 5? A．To support a finding. B．To raise a new question. C．To recommend a test. D．To draw readers’ interest. 4．What might future research study? A．How other plants hear vibrations. B．How to kill insects with chemicals. C．How plants taste better to humans. D．How to grow more tomatoes in farms. Passage 9 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Small plastic particles (微粒) in water have become one of the biggest problems for human health. A Chinese team has developed a new way to take away the plastic particles from water. ▲ They describe a special foam (泡沫橡胶) that can take in up to 99.8% of the particles in its first use! The best part is that it can be used again and broken down into harmless materials. The researchers from Wuhan University and Huazhong University of Science and Technology made this foam from sea life and cotton. The foam is full of tiny holes, which helps it take in different kinds of particles. These particles often come from things like electronics, plastic products, and clothes. To assess how well the foam works, the team used water from different real-world places. They found that the foam took in almost all the particles in its first use. After using the foam five times, it still cleared away more than 95% of the particles. The study also says the foam works well even when there are other things in water, like soil, heavy metals, or tiny living things. Deng Hongbing, one of the researchers, says that these particles will keep increasing in our environment because of all the plastic waste. However, the team believe that using natural materials like this foam could be a smart and low-cost way to solve the problem of harmful particles in water. They hope to use this technology in real-world water treatment or home water cleaning machines in the near future. 1．Which of the following can be put in Paragraph 2? A．Scientists are trying hard to solve this serious problem. B．The study has recently been published in Science Advances. C．Small plastic particles in water are harmful to human health. D．Some people take no notice of small plastic particles in water. 2．What does the underlined word “assess” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．Improve. B．Correct. C．Accept. D．Test. 3．How does the team feel about the use of the foam? A．Doubtful. B．Hopeful. C．Careful.

And workers can take their holidays at different times. This policy (政策) has been tried in Zhejiang, Jiangsu and Sichuan. These holidays are good for students. They can help students reduce study pressure after long-time learning, and keep them healthy both in body and mind. With nice weather, students can go out of the classroom to do many interesting activities, like farming, watching nature and learning local culture. In this way, they can turn book knowledge into real-life experience. The holidays are also good for families. Parents can spend happy time with their children at low cost, without the crowds of busy travel seasons. Many families travel, visit relatives or go to museums together, making family relationships closer. The holidays also help local tourism and economy. However, there are some problems. The main one is that many working parents can’t look after their children during holidays. To solve this, schools offer after-school care with fun activities, and communities also have more programs for students. Holidays can be set differently according to local situations. In short, spring and autumn holidays are a great change for education. They help students grow in a healthier and more meaningful way with the help of families, schools and society. 1．What can the holidays do for students? A．Increase their study pressure. B．Keep them healthy only in body. C．Help them turn book knowledge into real-life experience. D．Let them play games all day. 2．Why are the holidays good for families? A．Parents can spend time with kids at low cost. B．Parents have to pay more for travel. C．Families can only visit museums. D．Families can’t travel during holidays. 3．What is the main problem of the policy? A．Students have no activities to join. B．Schools refuse to offer after-school care. C．Many working parents can’t look after their kids. D．Communities have no programs for students. 4．What can we learn from the last paragraph? A．The holidays are bad for students’ growth B．The holidays only focus on exams C．Students grow better with the help of families, schools and society D．Families don’t need to help with the holidays 【答案】1．C 2．A 3．C 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了中国部分地区将推行中小学生春秋假政策，阐述了该政策对学生、家庭、地方旅游和经济的好处，同时指出了政策存在的主要问题及解决办法，最后表明春秋假是教育的一大变革，有助于学生在家庭、学校和社会的帮助下更健康、更有意义地成长。 1．第二段提到“With nice weather, students can go out of the classroom to do many interesting activities, like farming, watching nature and learning local culture.

Shortly after, I noticed four young people sitting at a table near me. After simply greeting each other and ordering, they all looked at their phones and continued to do so until their orders arrived. After photographing their food, they ate, continuing to look at their phones. I was wondering why they came here to eat together. They were phubbing, or phone snubbing (冷落), a very common problem these days. You may not know the word “phubbing”, but this kind of act is not strange to you. In fact, 32% of people report that they are phubbed two or three times a day. Do you have a conversation on your phone while talking to another person face to face? Do you scroll (上下滑动) through your phone while eating with someone for fear of missing out? If your answer is yes to either of them, you might be a “phubber”. The writer of The Psychology of Phubbing did a survey and found that the influence of phubbing on relationships can be very harmful or destructive. For example, children felt that parents who phubbed them didn’t care about them. This led to a feeling of being left out. Also, partners who were phubbed might be less satisfied with the relationship because of jealousy (嫉妒) and worries. Phubbing is a learned act, so unlearning it is possible. Start by accepting the problem. Set a time limit (限制) for not using your phone. Create areas where phones are off-limits. Don’t let the modern technology which is designed (设计) to bring people together separate you from others. 1．What did the four young people keep doing before their orders arrived? A．Greeting each other. B．Looking at their phones. C．Photographing their food. D．Talking with each other. 2．How does the writer introduce the word “phubber” in Paragraph 3? A．By raising questions. B．By listing numbers. C．By giving reasons. D．By giving examples. 3．What does the underlined word “destructive” in Paragraph 4 mean? A．微乎其微的 B．积极正向的 C．有破坏性的 D．重要的 4．What is the main purpose of the text? A．To warn people against phubbing. B．To show how phones bring people closer. C．To present the advantages of modern technology. D．To show how people protect their phones. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文作者从餐厅偶遇四个年轻人在聚餐时全程低头玩手机、冷落同伴的经历切入，引出了“低头症（phubbing）”这一普遍现象，介绍了“低头族（phubber）”的定义，点明低头行为对人际关系的危害，最后给出改正该行为的方法，呼吁人们不要让科技疏远了人与人之间的距离。 1．原文第一段“they all looked at their phones and continued to do so until their orders arrived”明确说明四个年轻人在上菜前一直看手机。 2．第三段连续用两个“Do…?”开头的问句，通过提问的方式引出，如果回答是肯定的，你就是phubber，也就是低头族，因此作者是通过提问题介绍这个词。 3．划线词“destructive”和前文的harmful“有害的”用“or”并列，是意思相近的词，结合“低头症对人际关系有害”的语义，可知destructive意为“有破坏性的”。 4．文章介绍了“低头症”这种现象，说明了它对人际关系的危害，最后呼吁不要让本应连接人的科技分隔人与人，核心目的是提醒人们不要做低头族。 Passage 3 （2026·安徽亳州·一模）How often do you drink milk tea? In China, milk tea is very popular. Now, some Chinese milk tea brands (品牌) are also becoming successful in other countries. One popular brand, Chagee, recently started selling its shares in the US. On its first day, people thought the company was worth about 55 billion yuan. This is a very big success. How did Chagee do it? The company has a good plan. It doesn’t make too many different drinks. It only focuses on a few best-selling ones. Also, it uses special machines. These machines can make a drink very quickly, in just eight seconds. This smart plan makes their work very efficient. Their products sell out fast, and the cost of moving products around is very low. This strong system is very important for doing business in other countries. An expert said that while others can copy drink styles or prices, it’s hard to copy this efficient system. Other Chinese brands are also growing around the world. Mixue has many stores in other countries. ChaPanda has opened stores in South Korea, Thailand, and Spain. These brands try to fit into new places. They change their flavors (口味) to match local tastes. For example, in Southeast Asia, Chagee uses popular local tea flavors.

In Greater Manchester, UK, a new program will teach “soft skills” to Generation Z — young people born between the late 1990s and early 2010s. The program will teach useful life skills such as managing time well, recognizing false news online, staying safe on the internet, and avoiding tricks. By September, around 10, 000 students are expected to join the course. Most learning will be online, but final tests will be taken in person. Many British businesses are worried that young people may find it hard to talk confidently on the phone or during a job interview. This is because Gen Z grew up with the Internet. They are more comfortable with quick online messages than real-life conversations. A university teacher also pointed out that recent world events have made it harder for some young people to learn key social skills. Since Gen Z will make up more than a quarter of the UK’s workforce by 2025, learning these skills is very important. Also, as artificial intelligence (AI) does more technical work, humans can focus on improving soft skills — something AI cannot do well. 1．What will the new program in Greater Manchester teach? A．How to use artificial intelligence. B．Useful life skills like time management. C．Ways to improve technical knowledge.

The policy has received wide support from both schools and families, and it will be tried in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Sichuan, and Anhui. We can benefit a lot from it. These short holidays are good for students. They can make students feel less tired after long study time and keep students healthy in body and mind. When the weather is nice, students can leave classrooms to do fun activities like farming, watching nature and learning about local culture. Then, book knowledge can become real-life experience. Families also get good things from the holidays. Parents can take time off at different times to stay with kids at a low cost, and they won’t meet too many people when traveling. Families can travel, visit relatives or go to museums together, which makes family ties stronger. The holidays also help local tourism and economy grow, making education and society both happy. But there are problems too. Many parents work and can’t look after kids during holidays. To solve this, schools offer fun activities with care services, and local communities give more programs.

A．Longer school days. B．Fewer tourist attractions and travel services. C．More school buses. D．After-school care and community programs. 3．What does the writer think of the spring and autumn holidays? A．They are all good with no problems. B．They are bad and should be stopped. C．They are helpful but have problems. D．They are not important for students. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 【导语】本文介绍了2026年政府工作报告中提出的中小学春秋假政策，分析了其对学生、家庭和经济的积极影响，同时也指出家长无法照看孩子的问题及相应的解决措施。 1．第一段指出：“The policy has received wide support from both schools and families, and it will be tried in Zhejiang...” 前文明确提到“the policy of spring and autumn holidays”，因此“it”指代该政策。 2．第四段指出：“To solve this, schools offer fun activities with care services, and local communities give more programs.”，说明解决家长无法照看孩子问题的方法是学校提供课后看护活动和社区项目。 3．第二、三段讲述了春秋假的好处（减轻学生疲劳、促进家庭关系、带动经济等），第四段指出存在问题（家长无法照看）并给出解决方案。因此作者认为春秋假有帮助但也有问题。 Passage9 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）In recent years, “city walk” has become a popular way of traveling among young people in China. Instead of visiting famous tourist spots, city walkers prefer to walk around the streets, explore local markets, and experience the everyday life of a city. Unlike traditional travel, city walk has no strict plan. People just walk at their own pace (节奏), discovering hidden cafes, old buildings, and small shops. Some even take part in guided city walk tours, where a local guide shares stories and history about the area. Why is city walk so attractive? For many, it’s a way to escape from the fast-paced life. Walking slowly allows them to relax and notice the small details they would usually miss. It also helps them connect with a city on a deeper level. Shanghai, a famous city in China, is a great place for city walks; the old streets near the Bund (外滩), the artistic vibe (氛围) of Tianzifang, and the modern look of Lujiazui all offer different experiences. Young people in Shanghai, like many others, now share their city walk routes (路线) online, encouraging others to discover the beauty of their own city. 1．What do city walkers usually do during a city walk? A．Visit famous tourist spots. B．Follow a strict travel plan. C．Explore local streets and markets. D．Take part in outdoor sports. 2．Why is city walk attractive to many people? A．It saves a lot of money. B．It helps them relax. C．It improves physical health. D．It makes them travel faster. 3．What can we learn from the passage? A．City walk is a traditional way of traveling. B．Guided city walk tours are very expensive. C．City walk is only popular in some big cities. D．The young enjoy sharing their walking routes. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了“城市漫步”这一新兴旅行方式。 1．文章第1段“Instead of visiting famous tourist spots, city walkers prefer to walk around the streets, explore local markets, and experience the everyday life of a city.”表明城市漫步爱好者通常更喜欢在街道上漫步、探索当地市场并体验城市的日常生活。 2．文章第3段“Walking slowly allows them to relax and notice the small details they would usually miss.”表明城市漫步对人们有吸引力的原因之一是它能帮助人们放松。 3．文章第4段“Young people in Shanghai, like many others, now share their city walk routes online, encouraging others to discover the beauty of their own city.”表明上海的年轻人和其他许多人一样，现在会在网上分享他们的城市漫步路线，鼓励他人发现自己城市的美。选项D与原文表述一致。 主题01 人与自然 Passage 1 （2026·安徽滁州·一模）In Canada, sea ice covers western Hudson Bay for most of the year. It’s a perfect place for polar bears. However, the ice melts (融化) and they have to move to land. Without enough food, polar bears must live off fat (脂肪) in their bodies for months. Because of global warming, the period becomes longer. Here comes the question: can polar bears live well on land? According to a study in Nature, the answer is “No”. Anthony Pagano, a scientist from America, led his team to Hudson Bay. They put GPS video trackers (追踪器) on 20 bears there for three weeks in the summers between 2020 and 2023. They studied what the bears ate, how they moved, how much energy they used each day and so on. “The bears can’t find food on land. The rising temperature makes a big change to their life,” said Pagano. The ice is disappearing slowly there. Polar bears now spend around 130 days on land a year. And scientists say the number may go up by 5 to 10 days every ten years in the future. This will lead to poor health of polar bears and a big drop in their number. What’s worse, they may fight with humans when moving into new places to search for food. So it’s time for humans to take action to stop global warming. 1．What do we know about the study in Nature? A．It began about six years ago. B．A British scientist did it alone. C．It showed polar bears live a good life on land. D．It showed that polar bears can hardly survive on land. 2．What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A．Polar bears will be in great danger. B．Polar bears will only live on land in the future. C．Scientists will do more studies on polar bears. D．Polar bears will be able to find more food on land. 3．What’s the best title for the text? A．How we protect polar bears in danger B．How the polar bears can live on land C．The influence of humans on the environment D．The influence of global warming on polar bears 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．D 【导语】本文主要围绕全球变暖对北极熊的影响展开：加拿大哈德逊湾因全球变暖海冰融化加速，北极熊被迫在陆地停留的时间越来越长；一项研究证实北极熊无法在陆地找到足够食物维持生存，这会导致北极熊健康恶化、种群数量大幅下降，甚至引发人熊冲突，最后呼吁人类行动起来阻止全球变暖。 1．根据文章上下文，研究是在2020-2023年开展的，至今不到6年，A选项描述错误。研究是美国科学家带领团队完成的，不是英国科学家独自完成，B选项描述错误。研究结论是北极熊无法在陆地找到足够食物，不能好好生活，C选项描述错误。文中第三段“‘The bears can’t find food on land. The rising temperature makes a big change to their life,’ said Pagano.”表明北极熊在陆地上难以生存。 2．第四段“Polar bears now spend around 130 days on land a year. And scientists say the number may go up by 5 to 10 days every ten years in the future.…moving into new places to search for food.”表明北极熊每年在陆地的时间会持续增加，这会导致北极熊健康变差、种群数量大幅下降，还会引发和人类的冲突，由此可以推断北极熊将陷入极大的生存危险。 3．全文围绕“全球变暖导致海冰融化，迫使北极熊到陆地生存，最终威胁北极熊生存”展开，核心是全球变暖对北极熊的影响，所以最佳标题是“The influence of global warming on polar bears”。 Passage 2 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）A new study shows that nearly one in four animals living in rivers, lakes and other freshwater places are in danger of dying out. Freshwater habitats—such as rivers, lakes, wetlands—cover less than 1% of the earth’s surface, but are home to 10% of all animal species. Scientists studied about 23,500 kinds of animals that live only in freshwater, including fish, crabs, and dragonflies. They found that 24% of them are at risk, because of pollution, dams, farming, new species, climate change and other problems. Many animals face several of these dangers at the same time, which makes it even harder for them to survive. This is the first time researchers have looked at the risk to freshwater animals around the world. Earlier studies focused on land animals like mammals and birds. In North America and Europe, many big rivers have been changed by dams, putting animals at risk. In South America, the Amazon River faces threats (威胁) from forest fires and illegal (非法的) gold mining (采矿). Ash from fires and mercury (汞) from mining can pollute the water badly. “If something really bad happens, it can hurt a whole species,” one scientist said. “There is nowhere else for them to go.” 1．What does the underlined word “habitats” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．Lake. B．Home. C．Fish. D．Plant. 2．Why did the scientists do the study? A．To help people build more dams on rivers. B．To find out how many freshwater animals there are. C．To study the risk to freshwater animals around the world. D．To learn about the influence of climate change on land animals. 3．What is a common threat to freshwater animals in North America and Europe? A．Forest fires. B．Illegal mining. C．Dams on rivers. D．New kinds of animals. 4．Which of the following is the best title (标题) for the text? A．Freshwater Homes Around the World B．The Importance of the Amazon River C．How Dams Put Big Rivers at Risk D．The Danger to Freshwater Animals 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．C 4．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项关于全球淡水动物生存风险的新研究，分析了淡水动物面临的威胁及其原因。 1．文章第1段“Freshwater habitats—such as rivers, lakes, wetlands—cover less than 1% of the earth’s surface, but are home to 10% of all animal species.”表明淡水如河流、湖泊、湿地仅占地球表面的不到1%，却是10%动物物种的家园。“habitats”后列举的“rivers, lakes, wetlands”是其例子，结合后文“home to 10% of all animal species”可推知“habitats”意为“栖息地；家园”，与“Home”意思相近。 2．文章第3段“This is the first time researchers have looked at the risk to freshwater animals around the world.”表明科学家开展这项研究的目的是研究全球淡水动物面临的风险。 3．文章第4段“In North America and Europe, many big rivers have been changed by dams, putting animals at risk.”表明北美和欧洲淡水动物面临的共同威胁是河流上的大坝。 4．文章围绕一项新研究展开，介绍了全球淡水动物面临的生存风险、威胁来源及相关影响，核心主题是淡水动物面临的危险。选项D最能概括全文主旨。 Passage 3 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）When there is little rain, trees in Panama’s forests have a way to stay alive. They send their roots (根) deeper into the ground to find water. But scientists say this may not be enough to help them face climate change. These forests are home to many animals and plants. They also store a lot of carbon (碳). But climate change brings hotter weather and longer dry times. Scientists wanted to know how tree roots change when there is no rain. They did a study in Panama. They put covers over some forest areas to keep out most of the rain. They also dug deep holes so roots could not get water from outside. For five years, they carried out this study and watched how the roots grew. All the forests acted the same way. When the ground got dry, many small roots near the top died. But the trees grew new roots deeper down to look for water. At the same time, helpful tiny living things in the soil helped the remaining roots get more water and food. But scientists are not sure whether this will be enough. Five years is a short time for a forest. We do not know how long trees can keep this up. If dry times last too long, some trees may not live. The forest could change in ways we cannot yet see. 1．Why did the scientists do the study? A．To see how tree roots change in dry times. B．To find enough water for tree roots. C．To know how to fight against climate change. D．To help trees grow better in dry times. 2．How did the trees act in the study? A．They lost all the water and food. B．Their new roots grew deeper. C．They helped tiny living things grow. D．The top roots look for water. 3．What does the underlined “this” refer to? A．The way trees use to stay alive in dry conditions. B．Panama’s forest. C．Climate change. D．The hotter weather. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．A 【导语】本文主要介绍了科学家对巴拿马森林中树木根系在干旱条件下变化的研究，以及气候变化对森林的潜在影响。 1．第二段最后一句明确指出：“Scientists wanted to know how tree roots change when there is no rain”，说明科学家进行这项研究是为了了解树木根系在干旱时如何变化。 2．第四段第二句和第三句明确指出：“When the ground got dry...the trees grew new roots deeper down to look for water”，说明树木的新根向更深处生长以寻找水分。 3．上文第四段整段都在讲树木应对干旱、维持存活的方式，因此最后一段“But scientists are not sure whether this will be enough”中的“this”指代前文描述的树木在干旱时让浅根死亡、长出更深新根以寻找水分的生存方式。 Passage 4 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Today, rockets take astronauts to space. But long before this, people were already dreaming about going to the moon. Wan Hu, born in the 1300s, was the first Chinese to try using a rocket to go to space. Chinese people began to use gunpowder (火药) in wars over 1,200 years ago. They found that the hot air from burning gunpowder could push arrows (箭) forward. By 1232, the first simple rockets, called “fire arrows,” had become common. Each rocket had a tube (管子). The tube was full of gunpowder and was tied to a stick with an arrow. One end of the tube was left open. When the gunpowder was lit, the hot air came out of the open end and pushed the rocket forward. Then people began to wonder: Can rockets be used for travel? After all, if a small rocket could move something small, a bigger one might move a person. Wan Hu wanted to have a try. He got 47 rockets and 47 helpers. He tied a chair to the rockets and added two kites. Then, he sat in the chair. He told his helpers to light all the rockets at once. There was a loud noise and lots of smoke. When the smoke was gone, Wan Hu had disappeared. Wan Hu’s idea was surely not safe. But he showed the world a dream: using rockets to fly. 1．Why was the tube used to make “fire arrows”? A．To burn sticks. B．To store gunpowder. C．To carry arrows. D．To clean air. 2．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Advantages of Wan Hu’s rockets. B．Helpers of sending Wan Hu to space. C．Wan Hu’s way of lighting rockets. D．Wan Hu’s attempt to travel with rockets. 3．What does the writer think of Wan Hu’s idea? A．Smart and simple. B．Crazy and scary. C．Unsafe but creative. D．Challenging but stupid. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了万户尝试用火箭飞向太空的故事。 1．第二段明确指出“The tube was full of gunpowder and was tied to a stick with an arrow”可知，管子的主要作用是装火药。 2．综合第四段内容，该段主要讲述了万户尝试用火箭飞向太空。 3．由最后一段作者对万户的评语“Wan Hu’s idea was surely not safe. But he showed the world a dream: using rockets to fly”可知，作者认为万户尝试用火箭飞向太空的想法不安全，但他向世界展示了梦想的精神。 Passage 5 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）The deep ocean is a world of almost complete darkness. Yet, surprisingly, it shines with living light. Many sea animals have a special ability called bioluminescence — they can create their own light. This is not for beauty; it is an important tool for living. In the upper (上层的) ocean sunlight still reaches, being seen can mean danger. So some animals keep away from the light area during the day. ________ Others use light in clever ways to hide. For example, certain shrimp (虾) can light up their undersides. They make the same light as that from above. So other hunters can hardly see them from below. But why do some sea animals shine brightly when touched? There are two main reasons. First, a sudden bright shining can scare a hunter, giving the smaller animal a chance to run away. It’s like shining a bright light in the hunter’s eyes. Second, light can call for help. When tiny fishes are caught, their shining acts like a “warning”, drawing larger fish that might hit the hunter. For these slow-moving fishes, light becomes their best protection. Light is a tool for hiding, a way to run away, and a call for help — a true language of living in a dark world. According to a recent study, the bioluminescence of sea animals has many useful applications in our life... 1．What does the underlined word “bioluminescence” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．The beauty of sea life. B．The tool used by fishes. C．The danger from hunters. D．The ability to make light. 2．Which of the following can be put in ________? A．This is how animals catch shrimps. B．But no food can be found there. C．They only rise to the upper at night. D．And light can make them safer. 3．Why do some sea animals shine when touched? A．To move faster. B．To drive away hunters. C．To help larger fish. D．To look more beautiful. 4．What will probably be talked about in the end? A．The world of sea animals. B．The study of light. C．The use of bioluminescence. D．The language of fish. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了海洋生物发光的现象及其生存作用。 1．第一段明确提到“Many sea animals have a special ability called bioluminescence — they can create their own light.”，直接解释该词指自己制造光的能力。 2．前文提到“some animals keep away from the light area during the day”，后文又讲“Others use light in clever ways to hide”，结合上下文语境，“They only rise to the upper at night.”承接上文，与白天躲避光线形成对应，符合逻辑。 3．第四段指出“a sudden bright shining can scare a hunter” 和 “light can call for help”，说明发光是为了吓跑捕猎者。 4．文章结尾提到“the bioluminescence of sea animals has many useful applications in our life”，说明接下来会讲生物发光的用途。 Passage 6 （2026·安徽蚌埠·一模）If you search for places of beauty, wetlands probably won’t be high on your list. Wetlands are areas of land that are often completely wet with water. The roles that the wetlands play in nature might go beyond many people’s imagination. Wetlands appear naturally in almost every part of the world. There are many different types of wetlands on Earth. Along with rainforests, they are among the most diverse (多样的) places on Earth. Besides natural wetlands, humans are also creating man-made ones for a number of purposes about water management. One of the main advantages of wetlands is that they can prevent floods. They do so by storing water for a certain time and then slowly releasing (释放) it over time. Wetlands operate similarly to a sponge (海绵). When it rains heavily and water levels rise, they take in the extra water which may cause floods. Then, when water levels become low later, they will release it. In many cases, wetlands offer a much more natural way than dams (坝). However, it’s important to note that wetlands, like dams, don’t stop all dangers from flooding. Wetlands also play a part in cleaning water. Farming actions and city waste are main causes of water pollution. Wetlands include plants and organisms that can reduce this pollution. Wetlands have other advantages for the environment as well. They can help to feed nearby fish populations by releasing something that can be used as food for them into rivers. Also, many animals like frogs use wetlands as baby-raising grounds because they provide the place for catching food and the water required. Although wetlands may not look pretty, it’s clear that they are able to do the important work which is necessary to make sure that the circle of life remains unbroken. 1．What are wetlands according to the passage? A．Dry land with many rare plants. B．Land areas that are often fully covered with water. C．Man-made places for water management only. D．The most beautiful natural places in the world. 2．What does the underlined word “operate” probably mean in Paragraph 3? A．Look. B．Work. C．Change. D．Form. 3．Which of the following is NOT a way wetlands help the environment? A．Cleaning water by reducing pollution. B．Providing food and living places for animals. C．Feeding nearby fish populations indirectly. D．Stopping all the flood dangers completely. 4．We can infer from the passage that ________. A．wetlands are less diverse than rainforests B．man-made wetlands have no environmental value C．wetlands are important for keeping the food chain balanced D．most people know the great importance of wetlands well 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了湿地的定义、类型，以及湿地在防洪、净化水质、为动物提供食物和栖息地等方面对环境的重要作用，强调了湿地对维持生态平衡的重要性。 1．第一段指出定义：“Wetlands are areas of land that are often completely wet with water”，这直接说明湿地是经常完全被水覆盖的陆地区域。 2．第三段解释词义：结合上下文“they can prevent floods. They do so by storing water for a certain time and then slowly releasing it over time”可知，湿地通过储存水分再缓慢释放来防洪，类似海绵的作用，因此“operate”在此处表示“工作；发挥作用”，与“Work”含义相近。 3．第三、四段说明排除项：第三段提到“wetlands, like dams, don’t stop all dangers from flooding”，第四段提到湿地能“cleaning water by reducing pollution”“feed nearby fish populations by releasing something that can be used as food”“provide the place for catching food and the water required”，由此可知“完全阻止所有洪水危险”并非湿地对环境的帮助方式。 4．第四段推断结论：“they are able to do the important work which is necessary to make sure that the circle of life remains unbroken”，说明湿地能保障生命循环的完整，可推断出湿地对维持食物链平衡至关重要。 Passage 7 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）In March 2026, China’s National Climate Center made an important report. It said La Niña, which had influenced global weather for a long time, ended in February 2026. Scientists are now warning that a strong El Niño event may arrive later this year. La Niña and El Niño are natural climate events in the Pacific Ocean. They can greatly change weather around the world. La Niña usually brings more rain to some places, while El Niño often causes extreme (极端) weather. La Niña usually brings more rain in parts of Asia and cooler weather in some areas. If a strong El Niño comes, many places will face high risks. There may be long-lasting high temperatures, dry weather and sudden heavy rain. Some experts even say that 2026 and 2027 could become the hottest years on record. Historical data (数据) show that strong El Niño events often lead to serious climate conditions around the world. For example, in 1997 and 2015, strong El Niño caused serious dry weather in Australia and Southeast Asia, and heavy floods in South America. These events not only influence daily life but also put pressure on the balance of nature and food supply (供应). As global warming continues, the influence of El Niño is likely to become worse. Though La Niña is less strong, it still changes weather greatly, making it necessary for countries to develop ways to warn people early about bad weather. 1．What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A．El Niño has already appeared. B．La Niña will last for another year. C．The weather will be clear soon. D．Scientists expect the coming of El Niño. 2．What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A．All climate events. B．La Niña and El Niño. C．The Pacific Ocean. D．Global temperatures. 3．Why does the writer mention 1997 and 2015? A．To show El Niño appears every year. B．To tell readers the history of El Niño. C．To explain how El Niño becomes strong. D．To show the serious influence of El Niño. 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Two Climate Events and Their Risks B．Ways to Warn People of Bad Weather C．Global Warming: How To Deal With It D．La Niña: A Less Harmful Climate Event 【答案】1．D 2．B 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了拉尼娜（La Niña）和厄尔尼诺（El Niño）两种太平洋自然气候事件，说明了它们对全球天气的影响，以及厄尔尼诺可能带来的极端天气风险。 1．根据第一段“Scientists are now warning that a strong El Niño event may arrive later this year.”可知，科学家预计厄尔尼诺即将到来。 2．根据第二段“La Niña and El Niño are natural climate events in the Pacific Ocean. They can greatly change weather around the world.” 可知，划线词They指代前文提到的La Niña and El Niño这两种气候事件。 3．根据第四段“Historical data show that strong El Niño events often lead to serious climate conditions around the world. For example, in 1997 and 2015, strong El Niño caused serious dry weather...”可知，作者提到1997年和2015年，是为了举例说明厄尔尼诺带来的严重影响。 4．本文核心围绕拉尼娜和厄尔尼诺两种气候事件，以及它们带来的天气风险展开，因此最佳标题为Two Climate Events and Their Risks。 Passage 8 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Have you ever wondered how plants protect themselves from insects? A new study shows that some plants can “hear” insects (昆虫) eating their leaves and fight back quickly! The study, done by a team of scientists, was about tomato plants. They found that when an insect eats tomato leaves, the leaves make small vibrations (震动). The plant “feels” these vibrations and starts making a chemical (化学物质) that tastes bad to insects. This way, the insects stop eating the leaves. To test this, the scientists played recorded eating sounds to tomato plants. The plants still made the bad-tasting chemical. However, other sounds didn’t influence the plants, like wind blowing or raindrops hitting leaves. This means plants can tell the difference between “dangerous” vibrations and “safe” ones. To make this idea sounder, the scientists did another test with apple plants. They found the same result: apple leaves also made bad-tasting chemicals when they “heard” eating vibrations. Scientists say this finding could help farmers. If we understand how plants protect themselves, we might grow crops that make more of these bad-tasting chemicals to keep insects away. More research is needed to learn how different plants “hear” vibrations, but this study is a great start. 1．What is the new study mainly about? A．When tomatoes made vibration sounds. B．How plants reacted to insect-eating vibrations. C．Where tomatoes were planted on farms. D．Why insects produced different chemicals. 2．What did the scientists do to test tomato plants? A．They put some real insects on leaves. B．They grew the plants in windy weather. C．They played recorded sounds to the plants. D．They recorded the sounds of plants’ growth. 3．Why did scientists do tests on apple plants in paragraph 5? A．To support a finding. B．To raise a new question. C．To recommend a test. D．To draw readers’ interest. 4．What might future research study? A．How other plants hear vibrations. B．How to kill insects with chemicals. C．How plants taste better to humans. D．How to grow more tomatoes in farms. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了一项新的科学研究，发现部分植物能够“感知”昆虫啃食叶片产生的震动，并通过分泌难吃的化学物质抵御昆虫，同时详细说明了实验验证过程与该研究的农业应用前景。 1．第一段第2句“A new study shows that some plants can ‘hear’ insects eating their leaves and fight back quickly!”，结合第二段对番茄植物感知震动、分泌化学物质的详细说明，可知这项新研究的核心是植物对昆虫啃食震动的反应。 2．第三段第1句“To test this, the scientists played recorded eating sounds to tomato plants.”，直接说明科学家为了测试番茄植物，给它们播放了录制的啃食声音。 3．第五段“To make this idea sounder, the scientists did another test with apple plants. They found the same result: apple leaves also made bad-tasting chemicals when they ‘heard’eating vibrations.”，“to make this idea sounder”意为让该结论更可靠，说明科学家对苹果植物进行测试是为了支持之前的发现。 4．第六段最后一句“More research is needed to learn how different plants ‘hear’ vibrations, but this study is a great start.”，说明未来的研究将围绕其他植物如何感知震动展开。 Passage 9 （2026·安徽合肥·一模）Small plastic particles (微粒) in water have become one of the biggest problems for human health. A Chinese team has developed a new way to take away the plastic particles from water. ▲ They describe a special foam (泡沫橡胶) that can take in up to 99.8% of the particles in its first use! The best part is that it can be used again and broken down into harmless materials. The researchers from Wuhan University and Huazhong University of Science and Technology made this foam from sea life and cotton. The foam is full of tiny holes, which helps it take in different kinds of particles. These particles often come from things like electronics, plastic products, and clothes. To assess how well the foam works, the team used water from different real-world places. They found that the foam took in almost all the particles in its first use. After using the foam five times, it still cleared away more than 95% of the particles. The study also says the foam works well even when there are other things in water, like soil, heavy metals, or tiny living things. Deng Hongbing, one of the researchers, says that these particles will keep increasing in our environment because of all the plastic waste. However, the team believe that using natural materials like this foam could be a smart and low-cost way to solve the problem of harmful particles in water. They hope to use this technology in real-world water treatment or home water cleaning machines in the near future. 1．Which of the following can be put in Paragraph 2? A．Scientists are trying hard to solve this serious problem. B．The study has recently been published in Science Advances. C．Small plastic particles in water are harmful to human health.
