Spring is the perfect time to visit Europe for ideal weather. The best European countries to visit in the spring include: France, Netherlands, Slovakia, Romania, Czech Republic and so on. France One of the most tourist-packed countries in Europe, France offers lesser crowds and more excellent weather during the spring months. Just outside of Paris are the impressive castles and country houses of Sceaux, where the cherry blossom can easily be seen in spring. Netherlands The Netherlands is well-known for its vast fields of flowers, making spring a perfect time for a Dutch holiday. The tulip fields in the Noordoostpolder are a must, as well as flower fields in Flevoland and Kop van Noord-Holland. In Veluwe National Park, tourists will be rewarded with the sight of red deer eating grass. A trip to the Netherlands would, of course, be incomplete without a visit to Amsterdam. The lesser crowds and lovely weather of spring make it the perfect time to explore Amsterdam’s canals. Slovakia Slovakia is a wonderfully diverse country with rich cultural history and awe-inspiring natural sites. Slovak Paradise is a natural park that offers 19 nature reserves and over 350 caves. Due to its hot summers and cold winters, spring is a perfect time to explore all that Slovakia has to offer. Romania Romania hosts a variety of great cultural sites and lively cities, especially attractive during spring months. The Statue of King Decebalus, a 141-foot-high upper part of Decebalus carved into the side of a rock, is a wonderful attraction. Brașov Old Town is one of Europe’s most charming destinations for those looking to escape the capital city of Bucharest. Czech Republic Due to its impossibly preserved Gothic architecture, Prague is widely regarded as the most impressive city in Europe. As such, summertime will be characterized with crowds that can ruin the romance with which you should experience Prague. May in the Czech Republic offers perfect not-too-hot, not-too-cold weather. This makes for ideal conditions to cross Charles Bridge and tour Prague Castle. 29. If one wants to appreciate flowers, he will most probably go to ______. A. France B. Netherlands C. Romania D. Czech Republic 30. According to the passage, the best destinations for tourists interested in architecture are ______. A. France and Romania B. Romania and Slovakia C. Slovakia and Czech Republic D. France and Czech Republic 31. What can be learned about the countries mentioned in the passage? A. They are packed with more crowds in spring than in other seasons. B. Tourists can travel in ships when visiting Romania and Netherlands. C. Travellers can catch sight of and feed wild animals in these countries. D. Slovakia is an amazing place where tourists can enjoy natural beauty. B Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a special assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who instructed each student to memorize three poems of their choosing from The Norton Anthology of American Literature — not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have. If the task was as a strange one, it’s because the act of memorizing a poem feels curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. When I was in graduate school, working toward a degree in English literature, I mostly limited myself to essays. It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem. Sometimes I spoke its lines aloud, my voice masked by the airplane’s thrum (嗡嗡声). Sometimes I went through the whole poem at once, and sometimes I repeated a single stanza (诗节) over and over, and by the time my plane landed on the West Coast, I had the whole thing, all 40 lines of it, in my head. Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime (罪过的事). The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you run your hands through the rock, the lines at last come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure. In other words, poetry survives continuously by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are. Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know that if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep beating in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become. 32. Why did Robert L. Hass advise students to read poems? A. To become literature professors. B. To relieve their future loneliness. C. To prepare for the coming exams. D. To compose more original poems. 33. Why does the author say that memorizing a poem begins as a crime? A. It’s out of date to recite poems. B. Repetition wastes a lot of time. C. Repetition ruins the poem’s beauty. D. It’s a shame to read poems on plane. 34. How does understanding poetry influence us? A. By refreshing our good memories. B. By broadening self-understanding. C. By reminding us to forget the past. D. By helping us survive the hard life. C The discovery and rescue of four young Indigenous (土著的) children, 40 days after the plane they were travelling in crashed in the remote Colombian rainforest, was considered by the international press a “wonder in the jungle”. But as a sociologist who has spent more than a year living among the Andoque people in the area and conducting fieldwork, I cannot simply call this an extraordinary event. At least, not a wonder in the usual sense of the word. Rather, the survival and discovery of these children can be credited to the rich knowledge of the forest and the adaptive skills passed down through generations by Indigenous people. Before starting primary school, children in this area go with their parents for various activities such as gardening, fishing, locating rivers, hunting and gathering honey and wild fruits. They know how to find safe water, build rain shelters and set animal traps. They can identify animal footprints and scents, and avoid dangers in the woods — including knowing which plants and flowers are safe to eat. Amazonian children typically don’t have the toys and games that children in the cities grow up with. So they become experienced tree climbers and engage in play that teaches them about adult tools made from natural materials, such as axes (斧). Through such play, they learn deeply about how the natural world works. In this way, the children acquire useful skills and knowledge, such as those shown by Lesly, Soleiny, Tien and Cristin during their 40- day struggle to survive. Regrettably, this traditional knowledge that has enabled the local people to survive in the Amazon for thousands of years is under threat. The growth of large farms, mines, and illegal activities, together with private companies stepping in without Indigenous permission, has left these people vulnerable (脆弱的). Without this knowledge, future Indigenous children might not know how to find food or stay safe in the forest. Losing it would mean the end of a way of life that has kept the Andoque people alive in the Amazon for thousands of years. 35. According to the author, what was the reason for the children’s survival? A. Complete luck and fortune. B. Rich resources in rainforests. C. Government’s timely rescue. D. Wisdom got from their culture. 36. Which of the following can best describe the Indigenous way of learning? A. Advanced. B. Professional. C. Practical. D. Formal. 37. What is the author’s attitude to the threat faced by traditional knowledge? A. Concerned. B. Hopeful. C. Objective. D. Unclear. 38. What is the author most likely to discuss next? A. Daily life of the Indigenous people. B. Measures to protect traditional knowledge. C. Follow-up report on the four children. D. Changes in the locals’ living environment. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the agricultural sector moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the food they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. ____39____ The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. ____40____ Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. Despite these challenges, the move toward sustainability is growing stronger. Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. ____41____ This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. This personal connection promotes greater environmental awareness. Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. ____42____ In response to this concern, Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. Professor Erin Barnett calls it a lasting trend — a return to a more natural way of eating that aligns (与……一致) with human needs. ____43____ Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all. A. In fact, the movement is expanding into cities. B. They can inspire more responsible consumption habits. C. However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost. D. It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties. E. In this way, households get food harvested only hours before delivery. F. Whether temporary or not, they agree it’s made supermarkets rethink sourcing. G. Many of them believe global supply ensures food security better than local systems. 五、书面表达（共5小题；共32分） 第一节（共4小题；第44、45题各2分，第46题3分，第47题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Born in 1949, Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion. Like many young athletes, Diana hoped to take part in the Olympics, but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games. However, she didn’t give up. Instead, she became interested in marathon swimming. Diana was a talented and strong athlete. As a long-distance swimmer, she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance, danger, cold, and exhaustion. For ten years, Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world’s best long-distance swimmers and set three important records. In 1970, she swam a ten-mile marathon in Lake Ontario, setting the women’s record for the course. In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida. Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975. Diana attempted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in 1978. Though the span of water is less than 100 miles wide, it is rough and dangerous. After battling the water for two days, she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety. Even so, she impressed the world with her courage and strong desire to succeed. For Diana, her strength of purpose was just as important as reaching Cuba. That is how she defined success. It did not matter that her swim came up short; she believed she had touched the other “shore”. When Diana ended her career as a swimmer, she continued to try new things — travelling the world as a reporter, writing books and giving public speeches about her life. Diana works to inspire others, just as she did when she swam the waters of the world. 44. What prevented Diana from competing in the Olympics? _____________________________________________________________ 45. As one of the world’s best long-distance swimmers, what did she achieve? _____________________________________________________________ 46.

And the theme for 2023 is Museums, Sustainability and Well-being. 【答案】22. has been celebrated 23. getting 24. decides 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是国际博物馆日。 【22题详解】 考查时态，语态和主谓一致。句意：自1977年以来，国际博物馆理事会每年都会庆祝这一天，以提高人们对博物馆在社会发展中所起作用的认识。由Since 1977可知，句子时态用现在完成时，由by可知，句子用被动语态，因此空格处是现在完成时的被动语态，即have/has been done，主语this day是单数，因此空格处是has been celebrated，故填has been celebrated。 【23题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这一天是让更多的年轻一代对博物馆的历史和文化感兴趣的好方法。fo是介词，其后跟动名词作宾语，故填getting。 【24题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：每年，该组织都会决定一个新的主题。由Every year可知，句子时态用一般现在时，主语organization是单数，因此空格处用第三人称单数，故填decides。 C 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。 As Miller defines it, hope is not a naive approach ___25___ seeing the world, where we ignore problems and engage in “wishful thinking”. Instead, hope is a complex ___26___ (respond), involving “feeling, thought, action, vision and a life force”. Having hope helps us to see possibility in present-day circumstances and not become overwhelmed. People who feel hopeful are ___27___ (creative), more productive at work, and better at recovering from adversity. For these reasons and others, ___28___ we should do is to input more hope into ourselves so as to handle problems more smoothly. 【答案】25. to 26. response 27. more creative 28. what 【解析】 【导语】主要阐释米勒对希望的定义，介绍希望的内涵以及拥有希望对人们生活与心态的积极作用。 【25题详解】 考查介词。句意：按照米勒的定义，希望并不是一种看待世界的幼稚方式，在这种方式里人们无视问题，一味地进行空想。此处为固定搭配approach to doing sth.表示“做某事的方式”，所以此处填介词to。 【26题详解】 考查名词。句意：相反，希望是一种复杂的反应，包含情感、思想、行动、视野以及生命力量。空格前有形容词complex修饰，需填入名词，respond的名词形式为response意为“反应”。 【27题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：心怀希望的人更富有创造力，工作效率更高，也更擅长从逆境中恢复。根据后文“more productive”以及“better”可知，此处应用形容词比较级，creative的比较级为more creative。 【28题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：出于这些及其他原因，我们所要做的就是给自己注入更多希望，从而更从容地处理问题。此处引导主语从句，从句中缺少宾语，指代事物，用连接代词what。 四、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，共30分） 第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，共20分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Not too hot, not too cold. Spring is the perfect time to visit Europe for ideal weather. The best European countries to visit in the spring include: France, Netherlands, Slovakia, Romania, Czech Republic and so on. France One of the most tourist-packed countries in Europe, France offers lesser crowds and more excellent weather during the spring months. Just outside of Paris are the impressive castles and country houses of Sceaux, where the cherry blossom can easily be seen in spring. Netherlands The Netherlands is well-known for its vast fields of flowers, making spring a perfect time for a Dutch holiday. The tulip fields in the Noordoostpolder are a must, as well as flower fields in Flevoland and Kop van Noord-Holland. In Veluwe National Park, tourists will be rewarded with the sight of red deer eating grass. A trip to the Netherlands would, of course, be incomplete without a visit to Amsterdam. The lesser crowds and lovely weather of spring make it the perfect time to explore Amsterdam’s canals. Slovakia Slovakia is a wonderfully diverse country with rich cultural history and awe-inspiring natural sites. Slovak Paradise is a natural park that offers 19 nature reserves and over 350 caves. Due to its hot summers and cold winters, spring is a perfect time to explore all that Slovakia has to offer. Romania Romania hosts a variety of great cultural sites and lively cities, especially attractive during spring months. The Statue of King Decebalus, a 141-foot-high upper part of Decebalus carved into the side of a rock, is a wonderful attraction. Brașov Old Town is one of Europe’s most charming destinations for those looking to escape the capital city of Bucharest. Czech Republic Due to its impossibly preserved Gothic architecture, Prague is widely regarded as the most impressive city in Europe. As such, summertime will be characterized with crowds that can ruin the romance with which you should experience Prague. May in the Czech Republic offers perfect not-too-hot, not-too-cold weather. This makes for ideal conditions to cross Charles Bridge and tour Prague Castle. 29. If one wants to appreciate flowers, he will most probably go to ______. A. France B. Netherlands C. Romania D. Czech Republic 30. According to the passage, the best destinations for tourists interested in architecture are ______. A. France and Romania B. Romania and Slovakia C. Slovakia and Czech Republic D. France and Czech Republic 31. What can be learned about the countries mentioned in the passage? A. They are packed with more crowds in spring than in other seasons. B. Tourists can travel in ships when visiting Romania and Netherlands. C. Travellers can catch sight of and feed wild animals in these countries. D. Slovakia is an amazing place where tourists can enjoy natural beauty. 【答案】29. B 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了五个适合春天去的旅游目的地。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The Netherlands is well-known for its vast fields of flowers, making spring a perfect time for a Dutch holiday. The tulip fields in the Noordoostpolder are a must, as well as flower fields in Flevoland and Kop van Noord-Holland.(荷兰以其广阔的花田而闻名，春天是荷兰人度假的最佳时机。Noordoostpolder的郁金香田是必去之地，Flevoland和Kop van Noord-Holland的花田也是必去之地)”可知，如果一个人想要赏花，他很可能会去荷兰。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Just outside of Paris are the impressive castles and country houses of Sceaux, where the cherry blossom can easily be seen in spring.(巴黎郊外有令人印象深刻的城堡和乡村别墅，春天樱花盛开)”以及最后一段“Due to its impossibly preserved Gothic architecture, Prague is widely regarded as the most impressive city in Europe.(由于其哥特式建筑保存完好，布拉格被广泛认为是欧洲最令人印象深刻的城市)”可知，对建筑感兴趣的游客的最佳目的地是法国和捷克共和国。故选D。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Slovakia is a wonderfully diverse country with rich cultural history and awe-inspiring natural sites. Slovak Paradise is a natural park that offers 19 nature reserves and over 350 caves. Due to its hot summers and cold winters, spring is a perfect time to explore all that Slovakia has to offer.(斯洛伐克是一个非常多元化的国家，有着丰富的文化历史和令人惊叹的自然景观。斯洛伐克天堂是一个自然公园，有19个自然保护区和350多个洞穴。由于其炎热的夏天和寒冷的冬天，春天是一个完美的时间来探索斯洛伐克所提供的一切)”可知，斯洛伐克是一个令人惊叹的地方，游客可以在那里享受自然美景。故选D。 B Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a special assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who instructed each student to memorize three poems of their choosing from The Norton Anthology of American Literature — not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have. If the task was as a strange one, it’s because the act of memorizing a poem feels curiously old-fashioned in an era when few of us encounter poetry at all. When I was in graduate school, working toward a degree in English literature, I mostly limited myself to essays. It was only in my 40s that I began to change my ways. It happened in a flight to Seattle. For hours, I read nothing else but a poem. Sometimes I spoke its lines aloud, my voice masked by the airplane’s thrum (嗡嗡声). Sometimes I went through the whole poem at once, and sometimes I repeated a single stanza (诗节) over and over, and by the time my plane landed on the West Coast, I had the whole thing, all 40 lines of it, in my head. Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime (罪过的事). The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. But as you run your hands through the rock, the lines at last come together again, and the scattered text transforms back into a treasure. In other words, poetry survives continuously by becoming a part of those who read it. It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are. Some of the poems I’ve memorized are already fading, and that’s fine. I know that if I spend a little time with them, they’ll sing in me again. Others keep beating in me like a new pulse. I won’t promise you that memorizing poetry will make your life better, but it will make you more: more in touch with language, with other minds, maybe with what you might yet become. 32. Why did Robert L. Hass advise students to read poems? A. To become literature professors. B. To relieve their future loneliness. C. To prepare for the coming exams. D. To compose more original poems. 33. Why does the author say that memorizing a poem begins as a crime? A. It’s out of date to recite poems. B. Repetition wastes a lot of time. C. Repetition ruins the poem’s beauty. D. It’s a shame to read poems on plane. 34. How does understanding poetry influence us? A. By refreshing our good memories. B. By broadening self-understanding. C. By reminding us to forget the past. D. By helping us survive the hard life. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述背诵诗歌的独特价值，回忆个人背诗经历，阐述诗歌融入内心、丰富自我的深层意义。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Decades ago, my friend Caetlin received a special assignment from the poet Robert L. Hass, who instructed each student to memorize three poems of their choosing from The Norton Anthology of American Literature — not for any urgent exam reason, he claimed, but instead to prepare them for their unavoidable future occasions when you’re going to be alone, and poetry is going to be all you have.(数十年前，我的朋友凯特琳接到诗人罗伯特・L・哈斯布置的一项特殊作业。他要求每位学生从《诺顿美国文学选集》中自选三首诗歌背诵。他表示，此举并非为了应付紧迫的考试，而是为了让学生们做好准备：在往后人生里，你难免会孤身独处，而那时，诗歌将是你唯一的慰藉与依靠。)”可知，诗人罗伯特·L·哈斯建议学生背诵诗歌，并非为了考试，而是为了让他们在未来独处、孤独无助时，能有诗歌相伴，从而缓解未来的孤独。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Because the process is as simple as it is very boring, memorizing a great poem always begins as a crime (罪过的事). The boredom of repetition reduces the great charm it has. (因为这个过程简单却十分枯燥，背诵一首优美的诗歌起初总是一件“罪过的事”的事。重复背诵的枯燥会消减诗歌本身所拥有的独特魅力。)”可知，背诵诗歌的过程需要反复重复，而这种枯燥的重复会破坏诗歌原本的美感和魅力，让原本优美的诗歌失去吸引力，因此，“begins as a crime”暗示“背诵诗歌一开始会损害诗歌的美感”，作者用“crime”形象地表达这种对诗歌魅力的消减。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It can do so only because it is so specific, so entirely different from us, that taking it in expands our own sense of what we are.(诗歌能够长久留存并成为读者的一部分，只因它独特且与我们自身截然不同，理解并接纳诗歌，能够拓宽我们对自我的认知和理解。)”可知，品读和理解诗歌，能让我们接触到与自身不同的视角和情感，从而拓宽对自我的认知，更清楚地了解自己是什么样的人，进而丰富自我。 C The discovery and rescue of four young Indigenous (土著的) children, 40 days after the plane they were travelling in crashed in the remote Colombian rainforest, was considered by the international press a “wonder in the jungle”. But as a sociologist who has spent more than a year living among the Andoque people in the area and conducting fieldwork, I cannot simply call this an extraordinary event. At least, not a wonder in the usual sense of the word. Rather, the survival and discovery of these children can be credited to the rich knowledge of the forest and the adaptive skills passed down through generations by Indigenous people. Before starting primary school, children in this area go with their parents for various activities such as gardening, fishing, locating rivers, hunting and gathering honey and wild fruits. They know how to find safe water, build rain shelters and set animal traps. They can identify animal footprints and scents, and avoid dangers in the woods — including knowing which plants and flowers are safe to eat. Amazonian children typically don’t have the toys and games that children in the cities grow up with. So they become experienced tree climbers and engage in play that teaches them about adult tools made from natural materials, such as axes (斧). Through such play, they learn deeply about how the natural world works. In this way, the children acquire useful skills and knowledge, such as those shown by Lesly, Soleiny, Tien and Cristin during their 40- day struggle to survive. Regrettably, this traditional knowledge that has enabled the local people to survive in the Amazon for thousands of years is under threat. The growth of large farms, mines, and illegal activities, together with private companies stepping in without Indigenous permission, has left these people vulnerable (脆弱的). Without this knowledge, future Indigenous children might not know how to find food or stay safe in the forest. Losing it would mean the end of a way of life that has kept the Andoque people alive in the Amazon for thousands of years. 35. According to the author, what was the reason for the children’s survival? A. Complete luck and fortune. B. Rich resources in rainforests. C. Government’s timely rescue. D. Wisdom got from their culture. 36. Which of the following can best describe the Indigenous way of learning? A. Advanced. B. Professional. C. Practical. D. Formal. 37. What is the author’s attitude to the threat faced by traditional knowledge? A. Concerned. B. Hopeful. C. Objective. D. Unclear. 38. What is the author most likely to discuss next? A. Daily life of the Indigenous people. B. Measures to protect traditional knowledge. C. Follow-up report on the four children. D. Changes in the locals’ living environment. 【答案】35. D 36. C 37. A 38. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。从社会学家的视角，探讨了四名土著儿童在亚马逊雨林中幸存的事件，对这一事件背后的原因及相关文化现象进行了分析，并对相关传统知识的现状表达了看法。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Rather, the survival and discovery of these children can be credited to the rich knowledge of the forest and the adaptive skills passed down through generations by Indigenous people. (相反，这些孩子能够幸存和被发现，要归功于土著人代代相传的丰富森林知识和适应技能)”可知，作者认为孩子们的幸存归功于土著人代代相传的森林知识和适应技能，即从他们的文化中获得的智慧。故选D。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Before starting primary school, children in this area go with their parents for various activities such as gardening, fishing, locating rivers, hunting and gathering honey and wild fruits. They know how to find safe water, build rain shelters and set animal traps. (在上小学之前，这个地区的孩子会和父母一起参加各种活动，比如园艺、捕鱼、寻找河流、狩猎以及采集蜂蜜和野果。他们知道如何找到安全的水源、搭建避雨棚和设置动物陷阱)”及第四段“Through such play, they learn deeply about how the natural world works. (通过这样的玩耍，他们深入了解了自然界的运作方式)”可知，土著儿童通过参与园艺、狩猎等实际活动来学习生存技能，这种学习方式是实用的。故选C。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Regrettably, this traditional knowledge that has enabled the local people to survive in the Amazon for thousands of years is under threat. (令人遗憾的是，这种使当地人得以在亚马逊生存数千年的传统知识正面临威胁)”及“Without this knowledge, future Indigenous children might not know how to find food or stay safe in the forest. Losing it would mean the end of a way of life that has kept the Andoque people alive in the Amazon for thousands of years. (没有这些知识，未来的土著儿童可能不知道如何在森林里寻找食物或保证安全。失去它将意味着一种让安多克人在亚马逊生存了数千年的生活方式的终结)”可知，作者对传统知识面临的威胁感到遗憾和担忧。故选A。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Losing it would mean the end of a way of life that has kept the Andoque people alive in the Amazon for thousands of years. (失去它将意味着一种让安多克人在亚马逊生存了数千年的生活方式的终结)”可知，此处指出了传统知识面临的严重威胁及其失去后的可怕后果，按照逻辑，作者接下来最可能讨论保护这些传统知识的措施。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the agricultural sector moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the food they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. ____39____ The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. ____40____ Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. Despite these challenges, the move toward sustainability is growing stronger. Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. ____41____ This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. This personal connection promotes greater environmental awareness. Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. ____42____ In response to this concern, Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. Professor Erin Barnett calls it a lasting trend — a return to a more natural way of eating that aligns (与……一致) with human needs. ____43____ Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all. A. In fact, the movement is expanding into cities. B. They can inspire more responsible consumption habits. C. However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost. D. It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties. E. In this way, households get food harvested only hours before delivery. F. Whether temporary or not, they agree it’s made supermarkets rethink sourcing. G. Many of them believe global supply ensures food security better than local systems. 【答案】39. D 40. C 41. E 42. G 43. A 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍美国本地饮食运动的兴起，分析现代农业弊端、该运动优势，同时探讨其争议与向城市普及的发展现状。 【39题详解】 根据前文“A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably.(美国出现了一场“本地饮食”运动，鼓励人们食用本地种植、可持续产出的食物。)”可知，前文引出本地饮食运动这一核心话题，横线处需要承接上文，说明这项运动的具体好处。D选项“It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties.(它缩短供应链并加强生产者与消费者之间的联系。)”具体阐释食用本地食材的优势，承接上文，自然引出下文对农业现状的介绍，逻辑通顺，符合语境。 【40题详解】 根据前文“The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs.(美国的农业产量位居世界前列。得益于先进的技术和大量的投入，这里的农场生产力极强。)”可知，前文夸赞美国农业高产高效；再根据空后“Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels — both for machinery and fertilizer production.(蒂莫西·比奇教授指出，这种粮食体系高度依赖化石燃料，既用于机械运作，也用于化肥生产。)”可知，后文讲述这种农业模式的弊端与隐患。C选项“However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost.(然而，这种高产是以高昂的环境代价为代价的。)”中However表转折，承接前文高产优势，转折引出后文环境与能源问题，承上启下，符合语境。 【41题详解】 根据前文“Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks.(路易丝·凯克勒等农户经营小型农场，通过社区互助农业网络供应新鲜农产品。)”介绍了小型农场的供货模式；结合空后“This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems.(这种新鲜度不仅提升营养摄入，还能让消费者了解气候变化对粮食体系的影响。)”出现关键词This freshness，指代横线内容。E选项“In this way, households get food harvested only hours before delivery.(通过这种方式，居民收到的食材在配送前短短数小时内才被采摘。)”具体解释食材新鲜的原因，衔接前文供货模式与后文新鲜度带来的好处，前后呼应，符合语境。 【42题详解】 根据前文“Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze.(一些专家还质疑，这场“本地饮食”运动是否只是昙花一现的热潮。)”可知，本段围绕专家的质疑观点展开。G选项“Many of them believe global supply ensures food security better than local systems.(他们当中许多人认为，全球供应体系比本地模式更能保障粮食安全。)”中them指代前文some experts，具体说明专家质疑、不看好本地饮食运动的理由，贴合段落主旨，衔接下文不同学者的看法，符合语境。 【43题详解】 根据后文“Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes.(如今，城市居民会在阳台种植番茄，在窗台花箱里种植香草。)”以及“Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all.(本地饮食不再局限于农村地区，正成为所有人都能拥有的生活方式。)”可知，后文全部讲述该运动在城市的发展与普及。A选项“In fact, the movement is expanding into cities.(事实上，这场运动正在向城市扩张。)”总括本段中心，引出下文城市居民自主种植的具体事例，贴合段落结构，符合语境。 五、书面表达（共5小题；共32分） 第一节（共4小题；第44、45题各2分，第46题3分，第47题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Born in 1949, Diana Nyad took an early interest in swimming as a sport and was a Florida State High School swimming champion. Like many young athletes, Diana hoped to take part in the Olympics, but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games. However, she didn’t give up. Instead, she became interested in marathon swimming. Diana was a talented and strong athlete. As a long-distance swimmer, she would compete against herself and the obstacles presented by distance, danger, cold, and exhaustion. For ten years, Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world’s best long-distance swimmers and set three important records. In 1970, she swam a ten-mile marathon in Lake Ontario, setting the women’s record for the course. In 1972 she set another record by swimming 102.5 miles from an island in the Bahamas to the coast of Florida. Then she broke a third record when swimming around Manhattan Island in 1975. Diana attempted to swim the distance between Florida and Cuba in 1978. Though the span of water is less than 100 miles wide, it is rough and dangerous. After battling the water for two days, she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety. Even so, she impressed the world with her courage and strong desire to succeed. For Diana, her strength of purpose was just as important as reaching Cuba. That is how she defined success. It did not matter that her swim came up short; she believed she had touched the other “shore”. When Diana ended her career as a swimmer, she continued to try new things — travelling the world as a reporter, writing books and giving public speeches about her life. Diana works to inspire others, just as she did when she swam the waters of the world. 44. What prevented Diana from competing in the Olympics? _____________________________________________________________ 45. As one of the world’s best long-distance swimmers, what did she achieve? _____________________________________________________________ 46. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.  In 1978, after Diana struggled in the water between Florida and Cuba for two days, she successfully reached the other shore at last. _____________________________________________________________ 47. From the story, what quality of Diana impresses you most? Why? (In about 40 words) _____________________________________________________________ 【答案】44. A serious illness. 45. She set three important records. 46. In 1978, after Diana struggled in the water between Florida and Cuba for two days, she successfully reached the other shore at last. According to the passage, in 1978, Diana struggled in the water between Florida and Cuba for two days but failed to reach the other shore. 47. Her perseverance impresses me most. She never gave up facing illness and difficulties, and kept challenging herself to realize her life value all the time. 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了长距离（马拉松）游泳运动员戴安娜·尼亚德的运动经历、挑战与人生追求，赞美她永不放弃、勇于挑战自我的精神。 【44题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段“Like many young athletes, Diana hoped to take part in the Olympics, but a serious illness kept her from competing in the Games.(和许多年轻运动员一样，戴安娜希望参加奥运会，但一场重病使她无法参赛)”可知，一场重病阻碍了戴安娜参加奥运会。 【45题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“For ten years, Nyad devoted herself to becoming one of the world’s best long-distance swimmers and set three important records.(十年来，尼亚德致力于成为世界上最优秀的长距离游泳运动员之一，并创下了三项重要纪录)”可知，她创下了三项重要纪录。 【46题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第三段“After battling the water for two days, she had to give up for the sake of her own health and safety.(在水中搏斗两天后，为了自身的健康和安全，她不得不放弃。)”可知，1978年她最终放弃尝试，并没有成功抵达对岸。故原句中“she successfully reached the other shore at last”表述错误，根据文章内容，经过两天的艰难尝试后，出于自身健康与安全考虑，她不得不放弃这次横渡游泳，最终没能抵达对岸。 【47题详解】 考查开放性试题。结合戴安娜坚持追梦、直面挑战、永不言弃的品质作答即可，所以答案可以为：Her perseverance impresses me most. She never gave up facing illness and difficulties, and kept challenging herself to realize her life value all the time. 第二节（20分） 48. 假设你是红星中学高一学生李华。你校英语社团正在举办“榜样引领我成长”主题征文活动。请选择一位你最敬佩的公众人物，以“My Role Model”为题，撰写一篇英文短文投稿，内容包括： 1. 简要介绍他/她的主要成就； 2. 阐述他/她对你的影响。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2. 标题已给出，不计入总词数。 My Role Model ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My Role Model My role model is Yuan Longping, the “Father of Hybrid Rice.” Professor Yuan devoted his life to solving food shortage. He developed the world’s first hybrid rice strain, which greatly increased rice production and fed millions of people.

I am deeply inspired by his perseverance — he spent years searching for a single hybrid rice plant under the burning sun. Whenever I face difficulties in my studies, I think of him and remind myself that great achievements require patience and effort. His dream of “enjoying the cool under the shade of rice” also touches my heart and encourages me to contribute to society in the future. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生以“My Role Model”为题，为学校英语社团举办的“榜样引领我成长”主题征文活动撰写一篇英文短文投稿，介绍一位自己最敬佩的公众人物，包括其主要成就以及对自身的影响。 【详解】1.词汇积累 致力于：devote to → dedicate to 短缺：shortage → lack 杰出的：remarkable → outstanding 激励：inspire → motivate 2.句式拓展 简单句改复合句 原句：His remarkable work earned him the “Medal of the Republic” and worldwide respect. 拓展句：Because his work was so remarkable, it earned him the “Medal of the Republic” and worldwide respect. 【点睛】【高分句型1】He developed the world’s first hybrid rice strain, which greatly increased rice production and fed millions of people.
