But a changing climate and environment are washing away soil and weakening its health. However, most family farmers here, who have owned and worked the land for generations, recognize soil health is crucial in reducing the worst effects of climate change. Wendy Johnson left Iowa to pursue a career in fashion in California in 2002. But when her grandmother passed away, Wendy began thinking about the legacy (家业) of the family farm: She didn’t want to see all the hard work her grandparents and parents put into the land here lost. Thus, in 2010, Wendy returned and began co-managing the family farm, Center View Farm, with her father. Center View Farm was already an early adopter of no-till (免耕) farming then. Tilling the soil actually degrades soil health. Experts estimate the planet loses billions of tons of rich soil each year. This would be a disaster for the world’s food systems unless regenerative agricultural practices, which help fight climate change and grow food while restoring nature, are adopted. For example, in no-till farming, new seeds are planted directly into the residue (残留) of previous crops. But Wendy wanted to do more. Since she moved back, Wendy has been working with Practical Farmers of Iowa (PFI), a farmer-led nonprofit, to innovate the way her family farms. She managed to plant various cover crops to preserve the richness of the soil. She also attended the field days hosted by PFI that help connect farmers and enable them to learn from each other’s innovations. At one PFI field day, she learned about organic animal raising. Now, while Center View Farm continues to provide the main income stream for her parents, Wendy started Jóia Food & Fiber Farm, a certified organic farm, to test other restorative practices. 4. What motivated Wendy to return to Iowa? A. Her love of her grandmother. B. Her promise to farm with her father. C. Her dream of being a fashion designer. D. Her desire to carry on her family’s work. 5. Why is Center View Farm mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To present a solution to low crop yields. B. To provide a role model for local farmers. C. To introduce a novel way to improve the soil. D. To stress the significance of smart agriculture. 6. What role did Wendy play in the PFI field days? A. An enthusiastic participant. B. A generous sponsor. C. A knowledgeable instructor. D. A responsible organizer. 7. What does Wendy’s practice indicate? A. Cover crops matter a lot. B. Organic change occurs naturally. C. Land is the lasting legacy. D. Sustainable farming is climate action. C Historically, the worker who worked the most hours was widely seen as an organization’s most valuable employee. But that is no longer true: as AI promises to transform how we work, and the four-day-workweek movement gains steam, it is time to admit once and for all that working more does not make you more productive. In fact, many workers could dutifully keep themselves busy for an entire day without doing anything of real value, instead answering pointless emails and attending unnecessary meetings. Meanwhile, many are struggling under the unsustainable consequences of applying an industrial-era measure of productivity — namely, dividing output by hours — to our modern knowledge economy. As a result, workers are under constant pressure to relinquish their rightfully earned time to prove their commitment. Those who finish their tasks more quickly are typically rewarded with more work to fill the hours they’ve saved, in what is sometimes referred to as “performance punishment.” A co-worker who works through evenings, weekends, or lunch breaks to complete the same workload, meanwhile, is often more likely to be praised or even promoted for their perceived commitment. This dynamic ultimately creates more pressure to look busy than to deliver value, which is getting in the way of actually getting work done and holding back organizational productivity while wearing down workers’ well-being. So it is time for us to be smarter about how we work. That is ultimately what the four-day-workweek movement seeks to inspire. Instead of just giving everyone an extra vacation day each week, when positioned as a performance-based motivator, the four-day workweek becomes a wake-up call to refocus our time and energy at work on the things that really matter to the business. In today’s knowledge economy and tomorrow’s AI reality, the most successful individuals, organizations, and nations won’t be those that work the most hours, but those that are the most effective at making their working hours count. 8. How does the author introduce the topic? A. By listing AI-driven changes in work. B. By challenging the hours-productivity link. C. By describing employee-centered practices. D. By advocating a short-time working pattern. 9. What does the underlined word “relinquish” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Set aside. B. Count on. C. Give up. D. Care about. 10. What weakens organizational effectiveness according to paragraph 3? A. Job burnout. B. Performative busyness. C. Unfair punishment. D. Unnoticed commitment. 11. What does the author think of the four-day workweek? A. A reward for efficiency at work. B. A wake-up call to stay competitive. C. A push to think smarter about work. D. A preparation for the uncertain future. D Over the last 1,400 years, populations of the Yangtze finless porpoise have dramatically declined in China. But intensive surveys of its range only span the last couple of decades, leaving lots of gaps in scientists’ knowledge of the species. In a creative blend of art and science, a new study uses historical poetry to chart the critically endangered animal’s population across the river it calls home. The finless porpoises once lived throughout the entire Yangtze River, which stretches from the Tibetan Plateau to the East China Sea. Now, the only known freshwater porpoise in the world has fewer than 1,800 individuals left in the wild. The research team combed through databases of Chinese poetry to find references to the porpoise and map its past distribution. They found 724 poems that mentioned the animal, of which half noted where the porpoises were observed. Their findings were published in Current Biology. “Having access to past data allows us to detect when declines began and correlate those changes with potential threats like habitat destruction, climate change, overhunting, disease or the introduction of invasive species,” says lead author Zhang Yaoyao, an ecologist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The poems suggest the porpoise’s range has decreased by 65% since the Tang dynasty. Most of that decline happened in the river’s tributaries and lakes, where the animal’s range has decreased by 91%. While the population decrease was mostly gradual, the sharpest decline has occurred over the past 100 years. That sudden drop aligns with human activities on the river, especially dam construction in the 1950s that blocked off the porpoise's movement to and from the river's main channel. The work highlights the connection between culture and science. “Poems are actually ancient citizen science, and many Chinese poets were ‘well-educated intellectuals’,” says Zhang. “These data are not perfect...But they do have a lot of information if you use them correctly.” This approach has potential for uncovering the pasts of other endangered species as well. Previously, scholars have used medieval and ancient texts to understand things like volcanic eruptions, auroras and unusual whales. 12. What challenge do scientists face in their research about the porpoise? A. Its population has dropped off dramatically. B. Locating its habitats is increasingly difficult. C. The long-term historical data are insufficient. D. Its population is hard to calculate precisely. 13. What mainly contributed to the dramatic fall of the porpoise’s populations? A. Poor resistance to diseases. B. Climate changes over time. C. Human impacts on its habitats. D. Competition with other species. 14. Why does the author mention “volcanic eruptions” in the last paragraph? A. To show major threats to endangered wildlife. B. To introduce challenges in ecological research. C. To reveal the wisdom of ancient Chinese poets. D. To prove the value of ancient texts in research. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Historical Poems: Records of Ancient Chinese Wildlife B. citizen Science: A New Approach to Protecting Animals C. The Yangtze Finless Porpoise: A Critically Endangered Species D. Ancient Poetry: A Creative Way to Study Endangered Porpoise 第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s easy to give in to the winter hibernation (冬眠) urge — but countless studies have shown that outdoors activity is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of anxiety, depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). ____16____ Here’s how to make the best use of our natural health service. Starting small. “Sometimes getting out and running 5km was like climbing Everest. It would take me all day just to find the energy to get out,” says Alex Staniforth, a mental health campaigner. ____17____ Try opening a window, sitting by natural light, or bringing nature indoors with plants. When you’re ready, aim for short, achievable goals like a five-minute walk. You don’t need hours. Aiming for regular activity is key. ____18____ Mental health and fitness coach Gareth Jones emphasized that good planning and structure are crucial. “If you know you’re struggling with motivation, laying out all your kit — from your socks all the way up to the food you’re going to take — can be helpful,” he says. “____19____ You might want to get out when you get to the front door — but if you have to go and search for your trainers because they’re lost under the stairs somewhere, you may not feel like going out at all.” Group support. Social commitments can also act as motivation for people with depression and anxiety. Having other people around us — whether that’s joining a club or committing to something with a friend — can really help. ____20____ “People are very quick to post their accomplishments on social media, but what you don’t see is the build-up,” says Gareth. “It doesn’t matter where people are now in their lives, they’ve had to work to get there. And you’ll get there too.” A. A clear goal. B. A structured approach. C. However, don’t compare yourself to others. D. A disorganized life can affect your motivation. E. Therefore, doctors are encouraging people to go outdoors more. F. But time in nature isn’t the only cure for mental health problems. G. If this sounds familiar, remember even small steps can bring benefits. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） I have an unusual hobby: I find “lost” memories in secondhand shops and reunite them with their owners.

Up to now, I have collected over 50,000 items like photographs, albums, and even undeveloped films. To find the owners, I set up a social media account. The first item I ____27____ was a tape of a family holiday, where the son was wearing a T-shirt with the words “Wesleyan swimming” on it. My followers ____28____ athletic departments in universities across the US and asked swimming coaches from the 90s if they recognized the student. ____29____, just a few days later, someone ____30____ him. To confirm he was just the person in the photo, we ____31____ him down on social media. He couldn’t believe it and was extremely ____32____ to be reunited with the tape. He then recreated some of the movies with his own sons. This journey of mending memory’s gaps is far more ____33____ than I could have imagined. Here, what was once lost is gently restored to its rightful place, and ____34____ blooms as stories reunite with the ____35____ that once held them close. 21.

But then, a melody begins, ____36____ (float) through the air, and suddenly the space is transformed. People gather, strangers become neighbors, ____37____ art fills the public space with possibility. Sun Chubo, a young bamboo flute (长笛) professional from the China National Opera and Dance Drama, has moved the stage from the theater to the masses. The countless ____38____ (like) both offline and online prove that this is ____39____ means for art to burst forth with vigorous and dynamic vitality. “In outdoor performances, I can see everyone’s expressions up close. It is much easier to intuitively (直觉地) sense whether the audience enjoys the piece I am playing and ____40____ (feel) their emotions directly,” Sun told the Global Times.

We were dreaming of far-off destinations, our minds filled with images of thrilling adventures. After school on Friday, on my way home, I ran into my best friend. Enthusiastic about the vacations, I asked him about his plans. His eyes twinkled brightly as he replied, “I’m going to visit my grandparents with my parents for a week.” “Don’t you ever get tired of going to the same place year after year? I remember, every year, your family takes 7 to 10 days off to head back to your native village,” I asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. “Oh, not at all! That’s the absolute best time of the year for me! Being with my folks in the village is just amazing.” His face beamed with joy as he continued, "In the village, I get to meet so many wonderful people, and everyone there is so kind and welcoming. Our neighborhood crew is tight! We’re always hanging out together, you know? Just running wild, chilling by the lake, or bouncing between each other’s houses. Honestly, I know what really matters about these village trips. It’s not the cool places we see — it’s spending time with the people I love. That’s the real treasure of life.” His words made me recall my own grandparents. I realized I hadn’t seen them for years. But still, it’s a pleasure to be there. … we had big long gardens and a big multi-story house. The next day, over breakfast, I mustered up the courage and asked my parents, “Can we visit grandparents this summer after exams?” Dad replied hesitantly, “Oh, that’s unexpected.” Mom was surprised. “Well, you know it gets really hot there this time of year.” After a short pause, Dad gave a small sigh and met my hopeful gaze. “However,” he said, “if you perform well in exams, we’ll make the trip.” For the next six weeks, I threw myself completely into my studies. My mom was amazed by this sudden transformation in me. Soon came the long-awaited exam results. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I rushed home and immediately handed my parents my score card and a note with “PLEASE.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I saw my mom had tears in her eyes when leaving them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 康杰中学2026届冲刺模拟卷（二） 英语 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音读两遍。 1.

Wendy Johnson left Iowa to pursue a career in fashion in California in 2002. But when her grandmother passed away, Wendy began thinking about the legacy (家业) of the family farm: She didn’t want to see all the hard work her grandparents and parents put into the land here lost. Thus, in 2010, Wendy returned and began co-managing the family farm, Center View Farm, with her father. Center View Farm was already an early adopter of no-till (免耕) farming then. Tilling the soil actually degrades soil health. Experts estimate the planet loses billions of tons of rich soil each year. This would be a disaster for the world’s food systems unless regenerative agricultural practices, which help fight climate change and grow food while restoring nature, are adopted. For example, in no-till farming, new seeds are planted directly into the residue (残留) of previous crops. But Wendy wanted to do more. Since she moved back, Wendy has been working with Practical Farmers of Iowa (PFI), a farmer-led nonprofit, to innovate the way her family farms. She managed to plant various cover crops to preserve the richness of the soil. She also attended the field days hosted by PFI that help connect farmers and enable them to learn from each other’s innovations. At one PFI field day, she learned about organic animal raising. Now, while Center View Farm continues to provide the main income stream for her parents, Wendy started Jóia Food & Fiber Farm, a certified organic farm, to test other restorative practices. 4. What motivated Wendy to return to Iowa? A. Her love of her grandmother. B. Her promise to farm with her father. C. Her dream of being a fashion designer. D. Her desire to carry on her family’s work. 5. Why is Center View Farm mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To present a solution to low crop yields. B. To provide a role model for local farmers. C. To introduce a novel way to improve the soil. D. To stress the significance of smart agriculture. 6. What role did Wendy play in the PFI field days? A. An enthusiastic participant. B. A generous sponsor. C. A knowledgeable instructor. D. A responsible organizer. 7. What does Wendy’s practice indicate? A. Cover crops matter a lot. B. Organic change occurs naturally. C. Land is the lasting legacy. D. Sustainable farming is climate action. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了美国爱荷华州受气候变化影响土壤受损，温迪为延续家族农场事业返乡，采用免耕法、种植覆盖作物等可持续农业方式，助力应对气候变化。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But when her grandmother passed away, Wendy began thinking about the legacy (家业) of the family farm: She didn’t want to see all the hard work her grandparents and parents put into the land here lost. (但当她的祖母去世后，温迪开始思考家庭农场的遗产：她不想看到祖父母和父母在这片土地上付出的所有辛勤劳动付之一篑。)”可知，温迪想继承家族事业的愿望促使她回到爱荷华州。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Center View Farm was already an early adopter of no - till (免耕) farming then. Tilling the soil actually degrades soil health. Experts estimate the planet loses billions of tons of rich soil each year. This would be a disaster for the world’s food systems unless regenerative agricultural practices, which help fight climate change and grow food while restoring nature, are adopted. For example, in no - till farming, new seeds are planted directly into the residue (残留) of previous crops. (当时Center View农场已经是一个较早采用免耕农业的农场。耕作实际上会降低土壤的健康。专家估计，地球每年损失数十亿吨肥沃的土壤。除非采用有助于应对气候变化和在恢复自然的同时种植粮食的可再生农业做法，否则这对世界粮食系统将是一场灾难。例如，在免耕农业中，新的种子直接播种到以前作物的残余物中。)”可推知，提到Center View农场是为了引进一种改良土壤的新方法。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“She also attended the field days hosted by PFI that help connect farmers and enable them to learn from each other’s innovations. At one PFI field day, she learned about organic animal raising. (她还参加了由PFI主办的实地日活动，帮助农民建立联系，使他们能够相互学习彼此的创新。在一次PFI实地考察日，她学习了有机动物饲养。)”可知，温迪在PFI领域扮演热心参与者的角色。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Iowa has long been known as the heartland of farming in the U. S. But a changing climate and environment are washing away soil and weakening its health. However, most family farmers here, who have owned and worked the land for generations, recognize soil health is crucial in reducing the worst effects of climate change. (爱荷华州长期以来一直被认为是美国农业的中心地带，但不断变化的气候和环境正在冲刷土壤，削弱其健康。然而，这里的大多数世代拥有并耕种土地的家庭农民认识到，土壤健康对于减少气候变化的最坏影响至关重要。)”可知，全文核心逻辑为“气候变化威胁土壤健康→家族农场采用免耕法→温迪进一步创新，种植覆盖作物、发展有机农业，践行再生农业”。由此可推知，温迪的实践说明了通过可持续农业应对气候变化。故选D项。 C Historically, the worker who worked the most hours was widely seen as an organization’s most valuable employee. But that is no longer true: as AI promises to transform how we work, and the four-day-workweek movement gains steam, it is time to admit once and for all that working more does not make you more productive. In fact, many workers could dutifully keep themselves busy for an entire day without doing anything of real value, instead answering pointless emails and attending unnecessary meetings. Meanwhile, many are struggling under the unsustainable consequences of applying an industrial-era measure of productivity — namely, dividing output by hours — to our modern knowledge economy. As a result, workers are under constant pressure to relinquish their rightfully earned time to prove their commitment. Those who finish their tasks more quickly are typically rewarded with more work to fill the hours they’ve saved, in what is sometimes referred to as “performance punishment.” A co-worker who works through evenings, weekends, or lunch breaks to complete the same workload, meanwhile, is often more likely to be praised or even promoted for their perceived commitment. This dynamic ultimately creates more pressure to look busy than to deliver value, which is getting in the way of actually getting work done and holding back organizational productivity while wearing down workers’ well-being. So it is time for us to be smarter about how we work. That is ultimately what the four-day-workweek movement seeks to inspire. Instead of just giving everyone an extra vacation day each week, when positioned as a performance-based motivator, the four-day workweek becomes a wake-up call to refocus our time and energy at work on the things that really matter to the business. In today’s knowledge economy and tomorrow’s AI reality, the most successful individuals, organizations, and nations won’t be those that work the most hours, but those that are the most effective at making their working hours count. 8. How does the author introduce the topic? A. By listing AI-driven changes in work. B. By challenging the hours-productivity link. C. By describing employee-centered practices. D. By advocating a short-time working pattern. 9. What does the underlined word “relinquish” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Set aside. B. Count on. C. Give up. D. Care about. 10. What weakens organizational effectiveness according to paragraph 3? A. Job burnout. B. Performative busyness. C. Unfair punishment. D. Unnoticed commitment. 11. What does the author think of the four-day workweek? A. A reward for efficiency at work. B. A wake-up call to stay competitive. C. A push to think smarter about work. D. A preparation for the uncertain future. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述了工作时间长不等于高效及四天工作周的意义。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Historically, the worker who worked the most hours was widely seen as an organization’s most valuable employee. But that is no longer true: as AI promises to transform how we work, and the four-day-workweek movement gains steam, it is time to admit once and for all that working more does not make you more productive.(从历史上看，工作时间最长的工人被广泛视为组织中最有价值的员工。但这种情况已不再如此：随着人工智能有望改变我们的工作方式，以及四天工作周运动逐渐兴起，是时候彻底承认，工作时间更长并不会让你更有效率。)”可知，作者通过挑战工作时间与生产力之间的联系来引入话题。故选B。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Meanwhile, many are struggling under the unsustainable consequences of applying an industrial - era measure of productivity — namely, dividing output by hours — to our modern knowledge economy. As a result, workers are under constant pressure to relinquish their rightfully earned time to prove their commitment.(与此同时，许多人在将工业时代的生产力衡量标准——即用产出除以工时——应用于现代知识经济时，正面临着不可持续的后果。因此，工人们面临着不断relinquish他们理应获得的时间以证明自己的忠诚度的压力。)”可知，由于用不合适的标准衡量生产力，工人要不断放弃自己应得的时间来证明忠诚度，relinquish意思是“放弃”，与Give up意思相近。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“This dynamic ultimately creates more pressure to look busy than to deliver value, which is getting in the way of actually getting work done and holding back organizational productivity while wearing down workers’ well-being.(这种动态最终造成了看起来忙碌比创造价值更大的压力，这阻碍了实际工作的完成，阻碍了组织生产力，同时也削弱了员工的福祉。)”可知，表面的忙碌削弱了组织效率。故选B。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“So it is time for us to be smarter about how we work. That is ultimately what the four - day - workweek movement seeks to inspire. Instead of just giving everyone an extra vacation day each week, when positioned as a performance - based motivator, the four - day workweek becomes a wake - up call to refocus our time and energy at work on the things that really matter to the business.(所以，是时候让我们更聪明地对待工作了。这最终是四天工作周运动想要激发的。四天工作周不仅仅是每周给大家额外一天的假期，当它被定位为一种基于绩效的激励因素时，它就成了一个警钟，提醒我们将工作中的时间和精力重新集中在真正对业务重要的事情上。)”可知，作者认为四天工作周是推动我们更聪明地思考工作的动力。故选C。 D Over the last 1,400 years, populations of the Yangtze finless porpoise have dramatically declined in China. But intensive surveys of its range only span the last couple of decades, leaving lots of gaps in scientists’ knowledge of the species. In a creative blend of art and science, a new study uses historical poetry to chart the critically endangered animal’s population across the river it calls home. The finless porpoises once lived throughout the entire Yangtze River, which stretches from the Tibetan Plateau to the East China Sea. Now, the only known freshwater porpoise in the world has fewer than 1,800 individuals left in the wild. The research team combed through databases of Chinese poetry to find references to the porpoise and map its past distribution. They found 724 poems that mentioned the animal, of which half noted where the porpoises were observed. Their findings were published in Current Biology. “Having access to past data allows us to detect when declines began and correlate those changes with potential threats like habitat destruction, climate change, overhunting, disease or the introduction of invasive species,” says lead author Zhang Yaoyao, an ecologist at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. The poems suggest the porpoise’s range has decreased by 65% since the Tang dynasty. Most of that decline happened in the river’s tributaries and lakes, where the animal’s range has decreased by 91%. While the population decrease was mostly gradual, the sharpest decline has occurred over the past 100 years. That sudden drop aligns with human activities on the river, especially dam construction in the 1950s that blocked off the porpoise's movement to and from the river's main channel. The work highlights the connection between culture and science. “Poems are actually ancient citizen science, and many Chinese poets were ‘well-educated intellectuals’,” says Zhang. “These data are not perfect...But they do have a lot of information if you use them correctly.” This approach has potential for uncovering the pasts of other endangered species as well. Previously, scholars have used medieval and ancient texts to understand things like volcanic eruptions, auroras and unusual whales. 12. What challenge do scientists face in their research about the porpoise? A. Its population has dropped off dramatically. B. Locating its habitats is increasingly difficult. C. The long-term historical data are insufficient. D. Its population is hard to calculate precisely. 13. What mainly contributed to the dramatic fall of the porpoise’s populations? A. Poor resistance to diseases. B. Climate changes over time. C. Human impacts on its habitats. D. Competition with other species. 14. Why does the author mention “volcanic eruptions” in the last paragraph? A. To show major threats to endangered wildlife. B. To introduce challenges in ecological research. C. To reveal the wisdom of ancient Chinese poets. D. To prove the value of ancient texts in research. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Historical Poems: Records of Ancient Chinese Wildlife B. citizen Science: A New Approach to Protecting Animals C. The Yangtze Finless Porpoise: A Critically Endangered Species D. Ancient Poetry: A Creative Way to Study Endangered Porpoise 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家通过研究中国历史诗歌来追踪长江江豚的种群变化，揭示了其数量大幅下降的原因，并强调了这种跨学科研究方法的创新性和潜在应用价值。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“But intensive surveys of its range only span the last couple of decades, leaving lots of gaps in scientists' knowledge of the species. (但对其活动范围的密集调查仅覆盖了过去几十年，科学家对该物种的了解存在许多空白)”可知，科学家在研究长江江豚时面临的主要挑战是长期历史数据的不足。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“That sudden drop aligns with human activities on the river, especially dam construction in the 1950s that blocked off the porpoise's movement to and from the river's main channel. (这一突然下降与河流上的人类活动相吻合，特别是20世纪50年代的水坝建设，阻碍了江豚进出主河道的活动)”可知，人类活动对江豚栖息地的影响是导致其数量急剧下降的主要原因。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This approach has potential for uncovering the pasts of other endangered species as well. Previously, scholars have used medieval and ancient texts to understand things like volcanic eruptions, auroras and unusual whales. (这种方法也有可能揭示其他濒危物种的过去。此前，学者们曾利用中世纪和古代文献来了解火山爆发、极光和异常鲸鱼等现象)”可推知，作者提到“火山爆发”是为了证明古代文献在研究中的价值，说明这种方法不仅适用于江豚，还可以用于其他领域的研究。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In a creative blend of art and science, a new study uses historical poetry to chart the critically endangered animal's population across the river it calls home. (在一项艺术与科学的创造性结合中，一项新的研究利用历史诗歌来描绘这种极度濒危动物在其家园河流中的种群分布)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了科学家通过研究中国历史诗歌来追踪长江江豚的种群变化，揭示了其数量大幅下降的原因，并强调了这种跨学科研究方法的创新性和潜在应用价值。由此可知，D项“Ancient Poetry: A Creative Way to Study Endangered Porpoise (古诗：研究濒危江豚的一种创造性方法)”最符合文章主旨，适合作标题。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题3分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s easy to give in to the winter hibernation (冬眠) urge — but countless studies have shown that outdoors activity is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of anxiety, depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). ____16____ Here’s how to make the best use of our natural health service. Starting small. “Sometimes getting out and running 5km was like climbing Everest. It would take me all day just to find the energy to get out,” says Alex Staniforth, a mental health campaigner. ____17____ Try opening a window, sitting by natural light, or bringing nature indoors with plants. When you’re ready, aim for short, achievable goals like a five-minute walk. You don’t need hours. Aiming for regular activity is key. ____18____ Mental health and fitness coach Gareth Jones emphasized that good planning and structure are crucial. “If you know you’re struggling with motivation, laying out all your kit — from your socks all the way up to the food you’re going to take — can be helpful,” he says. “____19____ You might want to get out when you get to the front door — but if you have to go and search for your trainers because they’re lost under the stairs somewhere, you may not feel like going out at all.” Group support. Social commitments can also act as motivation for people with depression and anxiety. Having other people around us — whether that’s joining a club or committing to something with a friend — can really help. ____20____ “People are very quick to post their accomplishments on social media, but what you don’t see is the build-up,” says Gareth. “It doesn’t matter where people are now in their lives, they’ve had to work to get there. And you’ll get there too.” A. A clear goal. B. A structured approach. C. However, don’t compare yourself to others. D. A disorganized life can affect your motivation. E. Therefore, doctors are encouraging people to go outdoors more. F. But time in nature isn’t the only cure for mental health problems. G. If this sounds familiar, remember even small steps can bring benefits. 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. B 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文针对冬季人们容易情绪低落的问题，指出户外活动是改善心理健康的有效方法，并给出了三条实用建议：从小事做起、采用有条理的方法、寻求团体支持。 【16题详解】 上文“It’s easy to give in to the winter hibernation (冬眠) urge — but countless studies have shown that outdoors activity is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of anxiety, depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD).( 很容易就会受到冬季冬眠情绪的诱惑——但无数研究都表明，进行户外活动是降低焦虑、抑郁和季节性情感障碍（SAD）风险的最佳方式之一。)”用大量研究证明了户外活动对缓解焦虑、抑郁和季节性情绪失调的显著效果。下文“Here’s how to make the best use of our natural health service.( 以下是充分利用我们这一天然健康资源的方法。)”自然过渡到“如何充分利用这一天然健康服务”。E 选项“Therefore, doctors are encouraging people to go outdoors more.( 因此，医生们鼓励人们多去户外活动。)”用“Therefore”承接前文的科学结论，引出医生的建议，完美起到了承上启下的作用。故选E项。 【17题详解】 上文““Sometimes getting out and running 5km was like climbing Everest. It would take me all day just to find the energy to get out,” says Alex Staniforth, a mental health campaigner.( “有时候出去跑 5 公里就像攀登珠穆朗玛峰。我得花一整天的时间才能找到出门的动力，”心理健康活动家亚历克斯·斯坦菲斯通说道。)”引用心理健康活动家亚历克斯的话，描述了很多人在冬季连出门都异常困难的状态。空格后紧接着给出了开窗、坐自然光下、5分钟散步等一系列“小事”的建议。G选项“If this sounds familiar, remember even small steps can bring benefits.( 如果这听起来很熟悉，请记住即使是小的行动也能带来好处。)”中的“this”精准指代前文提到的“难以出门”的困境，同时引出后文“小步骤也有大作用” 的核心观点。故选G项。 【18题详解】 空格是本段的小标题，需要概括全段主旨。下文“Mental health and fitness coach Gareth Jones emphasized that good planning and structure are crucial.( 心理健康和健身教练加雷斯·琼斯强调，良好的规划和结构至关重要。)”就明确指出良好的计划和条理至关重要，并通过“提前准备好所有装备”的例子进行了具体说明。B选项“A structured approach.( 有条理的方法。)”精准概括了本段核心内容。故选B项。 【19题详解】 上文““If you know you’re struggling with motivation, laying out all your kit — from your socks all the way up to the food you’re going to take — can be helpful,” he says.( “如果你知道自己在缺乏动力方面存在困难，准备好所有你需要的东西——从袜子一直到你要带的食物——可能会有所帮助，”他说。)”强调提前准备好装备的重要性，下文“You might want to get out when you get to the front door — but if you have to go and search for your trainers because they’re lost under the stairs somewhere, you may not feel like going out at all.” (当你走到前门时，也许你已经想出门了——但如果还得去楼梯下面找丢失的运动鞋，你可能就一点也不想出门了。”)”从反面说明“如果还要到处找运动鞋，可能就不想出门了”。D 选项“A disorganized life can affect your motivation.( 杂乱的生活会影响你的动力。)”正好连接正反两方面的论证，逻辑严密。故选D项。 【20题详解】 上文“Having other people around us — whether that’s joining a club or committing to something with a friend — can really help.( 身边有其他人的陪伴——无论是加入一个俱乐部还是与朋友一起参与某项活动——真的很有帮助。)”讲完团体支持的好处后，用 “However”进行转折。下文““People are very quick to post their accomplishments on social media, but what you don’t see is the build-up,” says Gareth.( “人们会在社交媒体上迅速晒出自己的成就，但你看不到的是背后的积累过程，”加雷斯说)”引用加雷斯的话，指出社交媒体上展示的只是别人的成就，看不到背后的付出，不要盲目比较。C 选项“However, don’t compare yourself to others.( 但是，不要拿自己和他人作比较。)”直接点明了本段后半部分的核心观点，与后文内容完全呼应。故选C项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） I have an unusual hobby: I find “lost” memories in secondhand shops and reunite them with their owners.

We were dreaming of far-off destinations, our minds filled with images of thrilling adventures. After school on Friday, on my way home, I ran into my best friend. Enthusiastic about the vacations, I asked him about his plans. His eyes twinkled brightly as he replied, “I’m going to visit my grandparents with my parents for a week.” “Don’t you ever get tired of going to the same place year after year? I remember, every year, your family takes 7 to 10 days off to head back to your native village,” I asked, raising an eyebrow in curiosity. “Oh, not at all! That’s the absolute best time of the year for me! Being with my folks in the village is just amazing.” His face beamed with joy as he continued, "In the village, I get to meet so many wonderful people, and everyone there is so kind and welcoming. Our neighborhood crew is tight! We’re always hanging out together, you know? Just running wild, chilling by the lake, or bouncing between each other’s houses. Honestly, I know what really matters about these village trips. It’s not the cool places we see — it’s spending time with the people I love. That’s the real treasure of life.” His words made me recall my own grandparents. I realized I hadn’t seen them for years. But still, it’s a pleasure to be there. … we had big long gardens and a big multi-story house. The next day, over breakfast, I mustered up the courage and asked my parents, “Can we visit grandparents this summer after exams?” Dad replied hesitantly, “Oh, that’s unexpected.” Mom was surprised. “Well, you know it gets really hot there this time of year.” After a short pause, Dad gave a small sigh and met my hopeful gaze. “However,” he said, “if you perform well in exams, we’ll make the trip.” For the next six weeks, I threw myself completely into my studies. My mom was amazed by this sudden transformation in me. Soon came the long-awaited exam results. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: I rushed home and immediately handed my parents my score card and a note with “PLEASE.” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: I saw my mom had tears in her eyes when leaving them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I rushed home and immediately handed my parents my score card and a note with “PLEASE.” This time, they instantly agreed. The next day, we set out for our hometown. Every one, be it relatives or neighbors, greeted us with smiles, treating me like their own son. Every day brought new happiness –- digging with Grandpa in the garden, playing games with cousins until sunset, roaming around familiar streets with loved ones and even joining the local kids in their football matches. The days passed as we had a wonderful time together. Truth be told, everything was more fun in a big family. When departure day came, my heart ached. I saw my mom had tears in her eyes when leaving them. She wiped them away and smiled, saying, “I didn’t realize how much I missed the village until now. It’s not just a place; it’s where our roots are.” As we drove away, I felt a mix of excitement and nostalgia. I realized that the real adventure wasn’t about exploring far-off places but about reconnecting with family and our heritage. This trip wasn’t just for me; it was a reminder for all of us that family is the true treasure of life. From then on, visiting Grandma and Grandpa became our annual tradition, a time to cherish love, laughter, and the simple joys of being together. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者在好友影响下渴望探望祖父母为线索，讲述了作者为争取暑期探亲机会努力备考，最终成行并在乡村感受到亲情温暖，领悟到家庭才是人生真正财富的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容“我冲回家，立刻把成绩单和一张写着‘求你了’的纸条递给父母。” 可知，第一段可描写父母兑现承诺，“我们”踏上返乡之旅，在乡村与亲人、邻里共度欢乐时光，离别时难舍难分的场景。 ② 由第二段首句内容“离开时，我看到妈妈眼里含着泪水。”可知，第二段可描写妈妈感慨乡村是“根”之所在，作者从中领悟到亲情的意义，将探亲定为家庭传统的感悟。 2. 续写线索：展示成绩单——父母同意——返乡探亲——欢聚时光——离别伤感——领悟亲情——定为传统 3. 词汇激活 行为类： ①出发：set out/depart/embark on a journey ②漫游：roam/wander/stroll ③告别：depart/leave/say goodbye 情绪类： ①快乐：happiness/joy/delight ②兴奋，激动：excitement/exhilaration/thrill 【点睛】【高分句型1】Every one, be it relatives or neighbors, greeted us with smiles, treating me like their own son.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） 【高分句型2】I realized that the real adventure wasn’t about exploring far-off places but about reconnecting with family and our heritage.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
