George.” He paused before accepting it. Then, our chat 3 . Charles had never left the country or rarely talked to strangers, while I, a third - culture kid, grew up with friends from around the world. As we learned more about each other, we both seemed to relax. Listening to George, I felt thankful for his company, age contrast notwithstanding. It’s often our experiences that 4 us, not age. Our conversation was interrupted by my growling stomach. I took out a sandwich and handed George another one. “Would you eat with me?” At first, he refused in shock. But the determination on my face must have been very 5 . After a moment’s hesitation, he accepted it. As silence settled in, I felt myself falling asleep. The sudden tap on my shoulder made me 6 in my seat. It was George, ready to get off the bus. As I extended my hand for a final handshake, he 7 it in both of his, looking directly at me, his eyes full of 8 . “Thank you for being so kind to me. Safe travels.” Looking outside, I realized that I had 9 shown generosity to this old man, who had probably never been offered food by a stranger.

The study suggests that AI’s overall influence on worldwide pollution is small and could even support environmental and economic progress. Scientists from the University of Waterloo and the Georgia Institute of Technology analyzed U.S. economic data alongside estimates of how frequently AI tools are used across different industries. Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 83 percent of the nation’s economic activity relies on petroleum, coal and natural gas. These fuels release greenhouse gases when burned. The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels. “It is important to note that the increase in energy use is not going to be uniform. It’s going to be felt more in the places where electricity is produced to power the data centers,” said Dr. Juan Moreno-Cruz, a professor in the Faculty of Environment at Waterloo and Canada Research Chair in Energy Transitions. “If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.” The study did not explore economic outcomes within the specific communities that host data centers, but the researchers identified several positive takeaways. “For people who believe that the use of AI will be a major problem for the climate and think we should avoid it, we’re offering a different perspective,” Moreno-Cruz said. “The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones. Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.” 24．Why did the scientists conduct this research? A．To analyze AI’s industrial application frequency. B．To promote environmental and economic progress. C．To calculate economic data across different industries. D．To explore AI’s environmental effects in its present trend. 25．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．US AI energy use is small on a global scale. B．Iceland’s power consumption is mainly driven by AI. C．Most US fossil fuels are used to power AI data centers. D．83% of US fossil fuels are consumed for AI energy use. 26．What is Dr. Moreno-Cruz’s attitude towards AI’s effect on the climate? A．Neutral. B．Dismissive. C．Objective. D．Concerned. 27．What will the researchers do in their follow-up research? A．Study data centers’ economic outcomes. B．Expand their research to more countries. C．Measure AI’s exact influence in all regions. D．Employ AI to develop and upgrade green tech. 【答案】24．D 25．A 26．C 27．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了新研究反驳了AI会大幅增加温室气体排放的观点，其全球环境影响较小。研究还指出AI有助环保发展，未来团队将把研究拓展到更多国家。 24．细节理解题。根据第二段“Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path.(他们的目标是探究如果人工智能的采用继续按照当前趋势发展，环境将会发生怎样的变化)”可知，科学家的主要目的是探究如果AI按照当前趋势发展下去，会对环境产生什么影响。故选D。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels.(研究人员指出，美国在人工智能领域所消耗的总能源量与冰岛的电力消耗量相当，但从国家或全球层面来看，这一数量仍微不足道)”可知，在全球范围内，美国的人工智能能源消耗量相对较少。故选A。 26．推理判断题。根据第四段“If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.(从当地的角度来看，这种变化意义重大，因为某些地区的发电量和排放量可能会增加一倍。但从更宏观的角度来看，人工智能对能源的利用并不会引起明显的变化)”以及最后一段“The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones.(对气候的影响并不那么显著，我们可以利用人工智能来开发绿色技术或者改进现有的技术)”可知，Dr. Moreno-Cruz在文中既指出了AI能源使用在局部地区（如数据中心所在地）可能带来显著影响，又强调在全球层面AI的能源消耗并不显著，同时还提出AI可用于开发绿色技术。这种既看到问题又看到机遇，既分析局部又着眼全局的论述方式，体现了客观全面的态度。故选C。 27．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.(接下来，我们计划将同样的方法应用于更多的国家，以了解人工智能的采用情况如何影响全球不同地区的环境状况)”可知，他们下一步计划将研究扩展到更多国家。故选B。 C In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), water is more valuable than oil. To support its citizens, the nation relies on expensive campaigns of cloud seeding from aircraft, which spray particles(喷洒微粒) into passing clouds to make rainfall. But according to Oliver Branch, a climate scientist, there may be another method to stir up a rainmaker: with city-size solar farms that create their own weather. The heat from dark solar panels can cause updrafts that sometimes lead to rainstorms, providing water for local people. “Maybe it’s not science fiction that we can produce this effect,” says Branch, who led the work. Few studies have examined how renewable energy might shift weather patterns. In 2020, Branch found that incredibly large solar farms, taking up more than 1 million square kilometers in the Sahara desert, could boost local rainfall. But the reward would come with a cost, the researchers found: By altering wind patterns, the solar farms would push tropical rain bands north. That’s not good news for the Amazon areas. To find more, researchers turned to a weather model that can account for land surface changes. They modeled the solar farms as nearly black fields that absorbed 95%of the sunlight, surrounded by relatively reflective sand. When the solar farms reached 15 square kilometers, they found, the increased heat they absorbed appreciably increased the updrafts, or convection, that drive cloud formation. Hacking convection wasn’t enough, however: damp air was also needed. When conditions were ripe, the model also found, a 20-square-kilometer solar field would increase a storm’s total rainfall by nearly 600,000 cubic meters. If such rainstorms occurred 10 times in one summer, they would provide enough water to support more than 30,000 people for a year. Solar farms in China and elsewhere are nearly big enough, Branch says. If they were built in the right spots, it wouldn’t take much to darken the panels and to plant dark crops between panel rows. Still they’re trying to improve the realism of their solar panel simulations by cross-checking them with field measurements at existing solar farms. The UAE “is committed to studying the potentially dynamic strategies, such as optimizing convection,” says Alya Al, director of the UAE’s Research Program. For now, she adds, the UAE is deeply committed to its cloud seeding program, carrying out some 300 missions each year. 28．In his study, Branch attempts to produce rainfall ________. A．by way of updrafts formed on solar farms B．by spraying particles into passing clouds C．by means of relatively reflective sand D．by planting dark crops 29．The model is designed to find out ________. A．the ripe conditions for building a solar farm B．the realistic size of a solar farm for rainfall increase C．the annual amount of water consumption in the UAE D．the heat absorption rate of the solar panels in the black fields 30．What can we learn about Branch’s method? A．It is not supported by the director. B．It needs great investment if applied. C．It remains to be further tested in practice. D．It has promoted cloud seeding in the UAE. 【答案】28．A 29．B 30．C 【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述了一种利用太阳能发电厂增加降雨的方式。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段的“But according to Oliver Branch, a climate scientist, there may be another method to stir up a rainmaker: with city-size solar farms that create their own weather. The heat from dark solar panels can cause updrafts that sometimes lead to rainstorms, providing water for local people. ( 但据气候科学家奥利弗·布兰奇(Oliver Branch)说，也许还有另一种方法来制造“造雨者”:用城市大小的太阳能农场来创造自己的天气。来自黑暗太阳能电池板的热量会引起上升气流，有时会导致暴风雨，为当地人提供水。)”可知，在研究中，Branch努力通过太阳能发电场形成的上升气流造雨。故选A。 29．推理判断题。根据第二段的“In 2020, Branch found that incredibly large solar farms, taking up more than 1 million square kilometers in the Sahara desert, could boost local rainfall.( 2020年，布兰奇发现，在撒哈拉沙漠占地100多万平方公里的大型太阳能农场可以增加当地的降雨量。)”和第三段的“To find more, researchers turned to a weather model that can account for land surface changes…When the solar farms reached 15 square kilometers, they found, the increased heat they absorbed appreciably increased the updrafts, or convection, that drive cloud formation.(为了发现更多的信息，研究人员求助于一个可以解释地表变化的天气模型……他们发现,当太阳能农场达到15平方公里时,他们吸收的热量增加,大大增加了上升气流,或对流,从而驱动云层的形成。)”可知，设计天气模型是为了弄清楚增加降雨的太阳能农场的实际规模。故选B。 30．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Still they’re trying to improve the realism of their solar panel simulations by cross-checking them with field measurements at existing solar farms. (尽管如此，他们仍在试图通过与现有太阳能农场的现场测量交叉检查来提高太阳能电池板模拟的真实感。)”可知，Branch的方法仍旧需要进一步检验。故选C。 D My father loved lists. Over 25 years, he recorded 539 books he read and 322 episodes of Booknotes on C-SPAN, which he watched every Sunday night. He also kept grocery lists for his mini-fridge — Pepsi, coffee, heavy cream — and daily tasks. These notes filled small notebooks, always near his reading chair. He wrote them until December 31, 2004, when cancer stopped him. After his death, I gathered the notebooks into a box. For years, I couldn’t bear to open them. Born in 1927 in Lowell, Massachusetts, my father was the son of a leather factory worker and grandson of an Irish immigrant who cleaned horse manure from the streets. Despite his humble beginnings, he was brilliant. After a summer in the leather factory, he graduated high school at 16 and went on to Boston College. He served in World War II and later earned degrees in physics. Then he worked at MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory, moved his family from Lowell to Boston, and sent his kids to private colleges. It seemed he had left Lowell behind — but not so. Deep down, he saw himself simply as a working-class Lowell kid who had just read a lot of books. He didn’t travel much, and didn’t feel the need. When I asked if he regretted not seeing the world, he defended himself: “I’ve sailed the Atlantic in stormy winds, climbed the Himalayas, and stared down wild animals.” Then he added, “I read.” Books were his world. From them, he learned to survive landslides, shark attacks, and even gorilla attacks. He had what he called “a rich inner life” — and it was true. Shortly before his death, he opened a small purple notebook and began one last list. It described details from 1930s Lowell — things lost in time. Twenty years later, I found it. In his flowing handwriting, Dad reached back to Lowell — a time long gone, now captured only in memory. Lost and only in memory — that was how I was experiencing Dad now. Squinting my eyes, I saw not just the city he loved, but the quiet, extraordinary man I called Dad. 31．Why are the details of the father’s lists mentioned in Paragraph 1? A．To imply his fear of forgetting. B．To show his love for literature and cuisine. C．To reveal his reliance on control. D．To reflect his ordered and thoughtful life. 32．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean? A．He stayed humble and rooted. B．He struggled with his identity. C．His success originated from his roots. D．He felt torn about his background. 33．What does the father’s quote in Paragraph 3 mainly reveal? A．His dream of global travel. B．His pride in inner journeys. C．His desire for real adventure. D．His escape from physical world. 34．What is the main theme of the passage? A．Pursuit and action. B．Loss and regret. C．Ambition and escape. D．Memory and identity. 【答案】31．D 32．A 33．B 34．D 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章通过作者回忆父亲生前记录的各类清单，展现父亲对生活的认真态度，同时借父亲虽离开故乡却始终心怀故土，以及父亲对阅读和内心世界的热爱，探讨了记忆与身份认同的主题。 31．推理判断题。根据第一段中“My father loved lists. Over 25 years, he recorded 539 books he read and 322 episodes of Booknotes on C-SPAN, which he watched every Sunday night. He also kept grocery lists for his mini-fridge — Pepsi, coffee, heavy cream — and daily tasks. These notes filled small notebooks, always near his reading chair. (我父亲喜欢列清单。在25多年的时间里，他记录了自己读过的539本书，以及每周日晚上在C-SPAN上观看的322集《书话》。他还为他的迷你冰箱列了食品杂货清单——百事可乐、咖啡、浓奶油——以及日常任务。这些笔记填满了小笔记本，总是放在他读书的椅子旁边)”可知，作者详细描述父亲各类清单的内容和持久性，是为了展现父亲生活有序、思维缜密、富有条理的特点。故选D项。 32．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Despite his humble beginnings, he was brilliant. After a summer in the leather factory, he graduated high school at 16 and went on to Boston College. He served in World War II and later earned degrees in physics. Then he worked at MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory, moved his family from Lowell to Boston, and sent his kids to private colleges. (尽管他出身卑微，但他很聪明。在皮革厂度过一个夏天后，他16岁高中毕业，随后进入波士顿学院。他参加了第二次世界大战，后来获得了物理学学位。然后，他在麻省理工学院的林肯实验室工作，把家从洛厄尔搬到了波士顿，并送孩子上私立大学)”和“Deep down, he saw himself simply as a working-class Lowell kid who had just read a lot of books. (在他的内心深处，他只是把自己看作是一个读了很多书的洛厄尔工人阶级的孩子)”可知，父亲虽然取得了成功，但他内心深处仍然认为自己是一个来自洛厄尔的工人阶级的孩子。由此可推知，尽管父亲取得了世俗意义上的成功，但他内心依然保持谦逊，并深深认同自己的出身根源。故划线句子的意思是“他仍然保持谦逊并深深认同自己的出身”。故选A项。 33．推理判断题。根据第三段中“When I asked if he regretted not seeing the world, he defended himself: “I’ve sailed the Atlantic in stormy winds, climbed the Himalayas, and stared down wild animals.” Then he added, “I read.” Books were his world. From them, he learned to survive landslides, shark attacks, and even gorilla attacks. He had what he called “a rich inner life” — and it was true. (当我问他是否后悔没有去看看世界时，他为自己辩护道：“我在暴风中横渡过大西洋，攀登过喜马拉雅山，还以目光逼退过野生动物。”然后他补充道：“我读书。”书就是他的世界。从书中，他学会了在山体滑坡、鲨鱼袭击，甚至大猩猩袭击中生存下来。他拥有他所谓的“丰富的内心生活”——这是真的)”可知，父亲的回应表明他通过阅读实现了精神上的冒险与探索，并为此感到自豪，这揭示了他对内心精神旅程的自豪。故选B项。 34．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段中“In his flowing handwriting, Dad reached back to Lowell — a time long gone, now captured only in memory. Lost and only in memory — that was how I was experiencing Dad now. (父亲用他流畅的笔迹，回到了洛厄尔——那段早已逝去的时光，如今只能在记忆中捕捉。失去，只在记忆中——这就是我现在对父亲的感受)”可知，文章通过作者回忆父亲生前记录的各类清单，展现父亲对生活的认真态度，同时借父亲虽离开故乡却始终心怀故土，以及父亲对阅读和内心世界的热爱，探讨了记忆与身份认同的主题。故选D项。 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。选项中有项为多余选项。 The work is piling up, pressure is mounting, and deadlines are approaching. How can we still get useful results if we need to make quick judgments and fast decisions? 35 Here’s how we can upgrade our minds. Firstly, challenge your key assumptions. Based on past experience, our mind constantly makes assumptions about the world. However, what saves us time and energy can lead to wrong conclusions if they remain unchallenged. Start by working in a team and questioning each other’s assumptions. 36 You should also consider alternative explanations. Humans seek explanations, and we prefer the one that comes to mind first. 37 It pays to naturally look beyond the most obvious explanations. This is to avoid confirmation bias; when we ignore evidence that goes against a prior belief. A master thinker treats their preferred explanation just as an assumption. 38 They simply refer to the main factors influencing how things have been going or how they will go. If we practice watching for driving factors when we have time to think, we’ll be able to identify them more instinctively on occasions when we’re in a hurry. The master thinker prioritizes the factors that impact an issue the most. Finally, consider the overall context. The master thinker considers the circumstances and conditions of an issue. 39 A few minutes to orient ourselves and reflect on the situation as a whole can once more save us time down the road. Only then is it time to consider the details and incorporate them back into said picture. A．Moreover, try to focus on key drivers. B．Attempt to think about problems wisely. C．However, that isn’t necessarily the correct one. D．This habit involves looking at the big picture first. E．True expert thinkers know the limitations of their minds. F．This collaborative approach enables your thinking to be challenged. G．Actually, the habits of master thinkers can help in reasoning and making decisions. 【答案】35．G 36．F 37．C 38．A 39．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在工作堆积、压力增大、截止日期临近的情况下，如何通过掌握优秀思考者的思维习惯来提升判断力、快速做出合理决策。 35．根据前文“The work is piling up, pressure is mounting, and deadlines are approaching. How can we still get useful results if we need to make quick judgments and fast decisions?(工作越积越多，压力不断增加，截止日期日益临近。如果我们需要快速判断、迅速做决定，怎样才能得到有效的结果呢？)” 可知，空前提出了在高压下如何快速决策的问题；空后一句“Here’s how we can upgrade our minds.(以下是我们可以提升思维的方法。)” 引出具体方法；故推知：空处应给出解决问题的总体方向，起到承上启下作用；选项G“Actually, the habits of master thinkers can help in reasoning and making decisions.(事实上，优秀思考者的习惯有助于推理和做决策。)” 契合原文内容。故选G。 36．根据前文“Start by working in a team and questioning each other’s assumptions.(从团队合作开始，互相质疑彼此的假设。)” 可知，空前强调团队协作、相互质疑；故推知：空处应说明这种做法带来的效果；选项F“This collaborative approach enables your thinking to be challenged.(这种协作方式能让你的思维受到检验和挑战。)” 契合原文内容。故选F。 37．根据前文“You should also consider alternative explanations. Humans seek explanations, and we prefer the one that comes to mind first.(你也应该考虑其他解释。人类会寻找解释，并且我们更倾向于最先想到的那个。)” 可知，空前指出人们偏爱第一时间想到的解释；空后一句“It pays to naturally look beyond the most obvious explanations.(自然而然地去探寻那些最显而易见的解释之外的可能性，是值得的。)”说明寻求其他解释的价值；故推知：空处应进行转折，说明这个想法不一定正确；选项C“However, that isn’t necessarily the correct one.(然而，那不一定就是正确的解释。)” 契合原文内容。故选C。 38．根据后文“They simply refer to the main factors influencing how things have been going or how they will go.(它们指的正是影响事情发展现状或未来走向的主要因素。)” 可知，空后解释主要影响因素；此处为段落首句，总领该段内容；选项A“Moreover, try to focus on key drivers.(此外，要努力关注关键驱动因素。)” 可以引领下文，指明They的指代对象。故选A。 39．根据前文“Finally, consider the overall context. The master thinker considers the circumstances and conditions of an issue.(最后，考虑整体背景。优秀的思考者会考虑一件事的环境与条件。)” 可知，空前强调要关注整体情况；故推知：空处应进一步解释这一习惯的特点；选项D“This habit involves looking at the big picture first.(这个习惯要求先着眼大局。)” 契合原文内容。故选D。 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43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。 Habit formation is the process by which behaviours become automatic. People develop countless habits as they explore the world, whether they are aware of them or not. Understanding how habits take shape may be helpful in changing bad habits. Habits are built through learning and repetition. A person is thought to develop a habit in the course of pursuing goals by beginning to associate certain cues(刺激) with behavioural responses that help meet the goal. Over time, thoughts of the behaviour and ultimately the behaviour itself are likely to be triggered(触发) by these cues. A “habit loop(环)” is a way of describing several related elements that produce habits. These elements are called the cue, the routine, and the reward. For example, stress could serve as a cue that one responds to by eating, which produces the reward﹣the reduction of stress. While a routine involves repeated behaviour, it’s not necessarily performed in response to a deep﹣rooted urge, as a habit is. Old habits can be difficult to shake, and healthy habits are often harder to develop. But through repetition, it’s possible to form new habits. The amount of time needed to build a habit will depend on multiple factors, including the individual and the intended behaviour. While you are able to pickup a new habit in a few weeks, it takes many months to build a healthy habit. Take some time to think about what leads to bad habits and re﹣evaluate what you get out of them (or don’t). Consider and keep in mind why you want to make a change, including how the change reflects your values. 40．How are habits built? 41．In what way is a routine different from a habit? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. Picking up a new habit takes a few week, while building a healthy habit takes a shorter time. 43．What benefit(s) have you got from one of your good habits?(In about 40 words) 【答案】40．Habits are built through learning and repetition. 41．A routine involves repeated behaviour while a habit is a deep﹣rooted urge. 42．Picking up a new habit takes a few week, while building a healthy habit takes a shorter time. Because building a healthy habit takes many months. 43．I have a good habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Therefore, I can study energetically every morning, which makes me study efficiently. Also, I am very healthy. 【导语】这是一篇说明文。习惯的形成是行为自动形成的过程。人们在探索世界的过程中养成了无数的习惯，不管他们是否意识到这些习惯。文章主要说明了习惯是如何形成的以及对人的影响。 40．考查细节理解。根据第二段中“Habits are built through learning and repetition.(习惯是通过学习和重复建立起来的)”可知，习惯是通过学习和重复建立起来的。故填Habits are built through learning and repetition.。 41．考查细节理解。根据第三段中“While a routine involves repeated behaviour, it’s not necessarily performed in response to a deep﹣rooted urge, as a habit is.(虽然一个常规包括重复的行为，但它不一定是为了应对深度﹣根深蒂固的冲动，就像习惯一样)”可知，常规不同于习惯在于：常规是重复的行为，而习惯是深度﹣根深蒂固的冲动，故填A routine involves repeated behaviour while a habit is a deep﹣rooted urge.。 42．考查细节理解。根据最后一段中“While you are able to pickup a new habit in a few weeks, it takes many months to build a healthy habit.(虽然你可以在几周内养成一个新的习惯，但是要养成一个健康的习惯却需要好几个月的时间)”可知，养成一个新的习惯需要好几周，而要养成一个健康的习惯却需要好几个月的时间。所以句子“Picking up a new habit takes a few week, while building a healthy habit takes a shorter time.”中“a shorter time”错误，应该为many months，故填Picking up a new habit takes a few week, while building a healthy habit takes a shorter time. Because building a healthy habit takes many months.。 43．开放试题，言之有理即可。题干问“你的一个好习惯给你带来了什么好处？（大约40个字）”，答案可以是：我有早睡早起的好习惯。因此，我可以每天早上精力充沛地学习，这使我学习效率高。而且，我很健康。故填I have a good habit of going to bed early and getting up early. Therefore, I can study energetically every morning, which makes me study efficiently. Also, I am very healthy.。 第二节: （20分) 44．根据央广网报道，我国存在八成青少年运动不足的问题。为响应“阳光体育”的号召，你校学生会英文专栏正在招募“学生运动推广大使”，申请者需提交一份课间微运动方案。请你以李津的名义写一封英文申请信，内容须包括： (1)陈述你的申请动机； (2)简述你的课间微运动方案及其优势； (3)表达你的意愿和决心。 注意： (1)词数100左右； (2)可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。 参考词汇：Sunshine Sports 阳光体育；Student Sports Promotion Ambassador学生运动推广大使；micro-exercise between classes 课间微运动 Dear Student Union, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely, Li Jin 【答案】Dear Student Union, I am writing to apply for the position of Student Sports Promotion Ambassador.

This week’s edition features national parks and an old railroad tunnel (隧道). Moubon Kurukumbi, 13, and Masoom Kurukumbi, 10, of Fairfax visited Washington state. They hiked in three national parks: North Cascades, Mount Rainier and Olympic National Park. While on Hurricane Ridge Mountain in Olympic National Park, Moubon and Masoom were approached by several black-tailed deer. Nathan Howard, 8, of Ashburn visited the Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina and Tennessee. Nathan hiked, played in streams and saw two bears. He is a junior ranger and wants to be a ranger to look after the Smoky Mountains National Park when he grows up. Bella Lamb, 13, Ari Lamb, 8, of Virginia Beach, and Violet Lamb, 9, of Centreville visited the Claudius Crozet Blue Ridge Tunnel in Rockfish Gap, Virginia. The historic railroad tunnel was built in the 1850s. They walked through the tunnel with flashlights while enjoying the cooler temperatures. We expect more of our readers to include us in their summer vacations, so take a page of KidsPost and share the fun. We’ll feature a selection of readers’ photos in the print KidsPost and on kidspost.com this summer. In September, three randomly selected participants will receive books and KidsPost presents.

B New research challenges the widespread belief that artificial intelligence is triggering a sharp rise in global greenhouse gas emissions. The study suggests that AI’s overall influence on worldwide pollution is small and could even support environmental and economic progress. Scientists from the University of Waterloo and the Georgia Institute of Technology analyzed U.S. economic data alongside estimates of how frequently AI tools are used across different industries. Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 83 percent of the nation’s economic activity relies on petroleum, coal and natural gas. These fuels release greenhouse gases when burned. The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels. “It is important to note that the increase in energy use is not going to be uniform. It’s going to be felt more in the places where electricity is produced to power the data centers,” said Dr. Juan Moreno-Cruz, a professor in the Faculty of Environment at Waterloo and Canada Research Chair in Energy Transitions. “If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.” The study did not explore economic outcomes within the specific communities that host data centers, but the researchers identified several positive takeaways. “For people who believe that the use of AI will be a major problem for the climate and think we should avoid it, we’re offering a different perspective,” Moreno-Cruz said. “The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones. Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.” 24．Why did the scientists conduct this research? A．To analyze AI’s industrial application frequency. B．To promote environmental and economic progress. C．To calculate economic data across different industries. D．To explore AI’s environmental effects in its present trend. 25．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．US AI energy use is small on a global scale. B．Iceland’s power consumption is mainly driven by AI. C．Most US fossil fuels are used to power AI data centers. D．83% of US fossil fuels are consumed for AI energy use. 26．What is Dr. Moreno-Cruz’s attitude towards AI’s effect on the climate? A．Neutral. B．Dismissive. C．Objective. D．Concerned. 27．What will the researchers do in their follow-up research? A．Study data centers’ economic outcomes. B．Expand their research to more countries. C．Measure AI’s exact influence in all regions. D．Employ AI to develop and upgrade green tech. C In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), water is more valuable than oil. To support its citizens, the nation relies on expensive campaigns of cloud seeding from aircraft, which spray particles(喷洒微粒) into passing clouds to make rainfall. But according to Oliver Branch, a climate scientist, there may be another method to stir up a rainmaker: with city-size solar farms that create their own weather. The heat from dark solar panels can cause updrafts that sometimes lead to rainstorms, providing water for local people. “Maybe it’s not science fiction that we can produce this effect,” says Branch, who led the work. Few studies have examined how renewable energy might shift weather patterns. In 2020, Branch found that incredibly large solar farms, taking up more than 1 million square kilometers in the Sahara desert, could boost local rainfall. But the reward would come with a cost, the researchers found: By altering wind patterns, the solar farms would push tropical rain bands north. That’s not good news for the Amazon areas. To find more, researchers turned to a weather model that can account for land surface changes. They modeled the solar farms as nearly black fields that absorbed 95%of the sunlight, surrounded by relatively reflective sand. When the solar farms reached 15 square kilometers, they found, the increased heat they absorbed appreciably increased the updrafts, or convection, that drive cloud formation. Hacking convection wasn’t enough, however: damp air was also needed. When conditions were ripe, the model also found, a 20-square-kilometer solar field would increase a storm’s total rainfall by nearly 600,000 cubic meters. If such rainstorms occurred 10 times in one summer, they would provide enough water to support more than 30,000 people for a year. Solar farms in China and elsewhere are nearly big enough, Branch says. If they were built in the right spots, it wouldn’t take much to darken the panels and to plant dark crops between panel rows. Still they’re trying to improve the realism of their solar panel simulations by cross-checking them with field measurements at existing solar farms. The UAE “is committed to studying the potentially dynamic strategies, such as optimizing convection,” says Alya Al, director of the UAE’s Research Program. For now, she adds, the UAE is deeply committed to its cloud seeding program, carrying out some 300 missions each year. 28．In his study, Branch attempts to produce rainfall ________. A．by way of updrafts formed on solar farms B．by spraying particles into passing clouds C．by means of relatively reflective sand D．by planting dark crops 29．The model is designed to find out ________. A．the ripe conditions for building a solar farm B．the realistic size of a solar farm for rainfall increase C．the annual amount of water consumption in the UAE D．the heat absorption rate of the solar panels in the black fields 30．What can we learn about Branch’s method? A．It is not supported by the director. B．It needs great investment if applied. C．It remains to be further tested in practice. D．It has promoted cloud seeding in the UAE. D My father loved lists. Over 25 years, he recorded 539 books he read and 322 episodes of Booknotes on C-SPAN, which he watched every Sunday night. He also kept grocery lists for his mini-fridge — Pepsi, coffee, heavy cream — and daily tasks. These notes filled small notebooks, always near his reading chair. He wrote them until December 31, 2004, when cancer stopped him. After his death, I gathered the notebooks into a box. For years, I couldn’t bear to open them. Born in 1927 in Lowell, Massachusetts, my father was the son of a leather factory worker and grandson of an Irish immigrant who cleaned horse manure from the streets. Despite his humble beginnings, he was brilliant. After a summer in the leather factory, he graduated high school at 16 and went on to Boston College. He served in World War II and later earned degrees in physics. Then he worked at MIT’s Lincoln Laboratory, moved his family from Lowell to Boston, and sent his kids to private colleges. It seemed he had left Lowell behind — but not so. Deep down, he saw himself simply as a working-class Lowell kid who had just read a lot of books. He didn’t travel much, and didn’t feel the need. When I asked if he regretted not seeing the world, he defended himself: “I’ve sailed the Atlantic in stormy winds, climbed the Himalayas, and stared down wild animals.” Then he added, “I read.” Books were his world. From them, he learned to survive landslides, shark attacks, and even gorilla attacks. He had what he called “a rich inner life” — and it was true. Shortly before his death, he opened a small purple notebook and began one last list. It described details from 1930s Lowell — things lost in time. Twenty years later, I found it. In his flowing handwriting, Dad reached back to Lowell — a time long gone, now captured only in memory. Lost and only in memory — that was how I was experiencing Dad now. Squinting my eyes, I saw not just the city he loved, but the quiet, extraordinary man I called Dad. 31．Why are the details of the father’s lists mentioned in Paragraph 1? A．To imply his fear of forgetting. B．To show his love for literature and cuisine. C．To reveal his reliance on control. D．To reflect his ordered and thoughtful life. 32．What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 2 mean? A．He stayed humble and rooted. B．He struggled with his identity. C．His success originated from his roots. D．He felt torn about his background. 33．What does the father’s quote in Paragraph 3 mainly reveal? A．His dream of global travel. B．His pride in inner journeys. C．His desire for real adventure. D．His escape from physical world. 34．What is the main theme of the passage? A．Pursuit and action. B．Loss and regret. C．Ambition and escape. D．Memory and identity. 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。选项中有项为多余选项。 The work is piling up, pressure is mounting, and deadlines are approaching. How can we still get useful results if we need to make quick judgments and fast decisions? 35 Here’s how we can upgrade our minds. Firstly, challenge your key assumptions. Based on past experience, our mind constantly makes assumptions about the world. However, what saves us time and energy can lead to wrong conclusions if they remain unchallenged. Start by working in a team and questioning each other’s assumptions. 36 You should also consider alternative explanations. Humans seek explanations, and we prefer the one that comes to mind first. 37 It pays to naturally look beyond the most obvious explanations. This is to avoid confirmation bias; when we ignore evidence that goes against a prior belief. A master thinker treats their preferred explanation just as an assumption. 38 They simply refer to the main factors influencing how things have been going or how they will go. If we practice watching for driving factors when we have time to think, we’ll be able to identify them more instinctively on occasions when we’re in a hurry. The master thinker prioritizes the factors that impact an issue the most. Finally, consider the overall context. The master thinker considers the circumstances and conditions of an issue. 39 A few minutes to orient ourselves and reflect on the situation as a whole can once more save us time down the road. Only then is it time to consider the details and incorporate them back into said picture. A．Moreover, try to focus on key drivers. B．Attempt to think about problems wisely. C．However, that isn’t necessarily the correct one. D．This habit involves looking at the big picture first. E．True expert thinkers know the limitations of their minds. F．This collaborative approach enables your thinking to be challenged. G．Actually, the habits of master thinkers can help in reasoning and making decisions. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43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。 Habit formation is the process by which behaviours become automatic. People develop countless habits as they explore the world, whether they are aware of them or not. Understanding how habits take shape may be helpful in changing bad habits. Habits are built through learning and repetition. A person is thought to develop a habit in the course of pursuing goals by beginning to associate certain cues(刺激) with behavioural responses that help meet the goal. Over time, thoughts of the behaviour and ultimately the behaviour itself are likely to be triggered(触发) by these cues. A “habit loop(环)” is a way of describing several related elements that produce habits. These elements are called the cue, the routine, and the reward. For example, stress could serve as a cue that one responds to by eating, which produces the reward﹣the reduction of stress. While a routine involves repeated behaviour, it’s not necessarily performed in response to a deep﹣rooted urge, as a habit is. Old habits can be difficult to shake, and healthy habits are often harder to develop. But through repetition, it’s possible to form new habits. The amount of time needed to build a habit will depend on multiple factors, including the individual and the intended behaviour. While you are able to pickup a new habit in a few weeks, it takes many months to build a healthy habit. Take some time to think about what leads to bad habits and re﹣evaluate what you get out of them (or don’t). Consider and keep in mind why you want to make a change, including how the change reflects your values. 40．How are habits built? 41．In what way is a routine different from a habit? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. Picking up a new habit takes a few week, while building a healthy habit takes a shorter time. 43．What benefit(s) have you got from one of your good habits?(In about 40 words) 第二节: （20分) 44．根据央广网报道，我国存在八成青少年运动不足的问题。为响应“阳光体育”的号召，你校学生会英文专栏正在招募“学生运动推广大使”，申请者需提交一份课间微运动方案。请你以李津的名义写一封英文申请信，内容须包括： (1)陈述你的申请动机； (2)简述你的课间微运动方案及其优势； (3)表达你的意愿和决心。 注意： (1)词数100左右； (2)可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。 参考词汇：Sunshine Sports 阳光体育；Student Sports Promotion Ambassador学生运动推广大使；micro-exercise between classes 课间微运动 Dear Student Union, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely, Li Jin 试题 第7页（共8页） 试题 第8页（共8页） 试题 第1页（共8页） 试题 第2页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026届高考英语压轴精卷（北京专用） （考试时间：100分钟 试卷满分：100分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分：知识运用（共两节，30分） 第一节 完形填空（共10小题：每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该选项涂黑。 At 13 years old, I took a long trip to London alone.

This week’s edition features national parks and an old railroad tunnel (隧道). Moubon Kurukumbi, 13, and Masoom Kurukumbi, 10, of Fairfax visited Washington state. They hiked in three national parks: North Cascades, Mount Rainier and Olympic National Park. While on Hurricane Ridge Mountain in Olympic National Park, Moubon and Masoom were approached by several black-tailed deer. Nathan Howard, 8, of Ashburn visited the Smoky Mountains National Park in North Carolina and Tennessee. Nathan hiked, played in streams and saw two bears. He is a junior ranger and wants to be a ranger to look after the Smoky Mountains National Park when he grows up. Bella Lamb, 13, Ari Lamb, 8, of Virginia Beach, and Violet Lamb, 9, of Centreville visited the Claudius Crozet Blue Ridge Tunnel in Rockfish Gap, Virginia. The historic railroad tunnel was built in the 1850s. They walked through the tunnel with flashlights while enjoying the cooler temperatures. We expect more of our readers to include us in their summer vacations, so take a page of KidsPost and share the fun. We’ll feature a selection of readers’ photos in the print KidsPost and on kidspost.com this summer. In September, three randomly selected participants will receive books and KidsPost presents.

B New research challenges the widespread belief that artificial intelligence is triggering a sharp rise in global greenhouse gas emissions. The study suggests that AI’s overall influence on worldwide pollution is small and could even support environmental and economic progress. Scientists from the University of Waterloo and the Georgia Institute of Technology analyzed U.S. economic data alongside estimates of how frequently AI tools are used across different industries. Their goal was to understand what might happen to the environment if AI adoption increases along its current path. According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, 83 percent of the nation’s economic activity relies on petroleum, coal and natural gas. These fuels release greenhouse gases when burned. The researchers noted that total energy use from AI in the United States matched the electricity consumption of Iceland, yet this amount remained insignificant when viewed at national or global levels. “It is important to note that the increase in energy use is not going to be uniform. It’s going to be felt more in the places where electricity is produced to power the data centers,” said Dr. Juan Moreno-Cruz, a professor in the Faculty of Environment at Waterloo and Canada Research Chair in Energy Transitions. “If you look at that energy from the local perspective, that’s a big deal because some places could see double the amount of electricity output and emissions. But at a larger scale, AI’s use of energy won’t be noticeable.” The study did not explore economic outcomes within the specific communities that host data centers, but the researchers identified several positive takeaways. “For people who believe that the use of AI will be a major problem for the climate and think we should avoid it, we’re offering a different perspective,” Moreno-Cruz said. “The effects on climate are not that significant, and we can use AI to develop green technologies or to improve existing ones. Moving forward, we intend to apply the same approach to additional countries in order to understand how AI adoption may influence environmental outcomes across different regions of the world.” 24．Why did the scientists conduct this research? A．To analyze AI’s industrial application frequency. B．To promote environmental and economic progress. C．To calculate economic data across different industries. D．To explore AI’s environmental effects in its present trend. 25．What can we learn from paragraph 3? A．US AI energy use is small on a global scale. B．Iceland’s power consumption is mainly driven by AI. C．Most US fossil fuels are used to power AI data centers. D．83% of US fossil fuels are consumed for AI energy use. 26．What is Dr. Moreno-Cruz’s attitude towards AI’s effect on the climate? A．Neutral. B．Dismissive. C．Objective. D．Concerned. 27．What will the researchers do in their follow-up research? A．Study data centers’ economic outcomes. B．Expand their research to more countries. C．Measure AI’s exact influence in all regions. D．Employ AI to develop and upgrade green tech. C In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), water is more valuable than oil.
