M:Yes,you must be really annoyed after all the work you put into it. W:Yes,I was.The client was really positive about it but they were in some financial difficulty. M:It was a huge contract,wasn't it?What are you going to do now? W:Well,we've just had a big order from another client so that's taken pressure off. Text 7.

M:And you knocked the test tubes over.

W:I've noticed that,too,and working from home has made it even harder to find a quiet corner. M:I looked at some listings online last night,and there are a few bigger houses still within our budget. W:That sounds promising,but I worry about the longer travel time if we move farther from the city center. M:Most of the places I saw are close to public transport. W:What about our kids?New schools? M:I looked into that as well.The nearby schools actually have newer facilities and smaller class sizes. W:That's amazing but moving means a lot of extra work and unexpected costs. M:True,but staying here may limit the kids'growth. W:Maybe we should visit a few places in person first. M:I agree. Text 10.

droughts and floods becoming more frequent.”,可知，尽管这些白垩河具有极高的珍贵性，但长期以来它们一直受到人类活动、污染、 过度取水以及气候变化日益加剧的威胁，干旱和洪水变得更加频繁，该句中，人类活动、污染、过度取水、气候变化日 益加剧、干旱和洪水都是消极事件，会对这条河流产生负面的影响，“威胁”符合语境，故答案为C。

accepting whole-harvest products made from otherwise wasted produce,they support a smarter food system that prioritizes management over waste.”,可知，消者通过

contrast”引出草地的弊端， 将树木和草地在净化污染、降温、降噪等方面的作用进行对比，以此解释二者对心脏健康影响不同的原因，因此主要 使用了对比的写作手法，故答案为B。 33.C推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“The protective effect of trees was most obvious within500 meters of people's homes,not just the immediate 100 meters,which is good news for urban planning.Prioritizing trees in cities,rather than grass,can deliver greater cardiovascular benefits.”,可知，树木在住宅500米内的保护效果显著，且城市规划中优先种植 树木能带来更大的心血管健康益处，由此可推知城市规划应更重视植树，故答案为C。 34B观点态度题。根据最后一段第一句“Notably,the study followed only female nurses,so more research is needed to confirm if the pattern applies to men and diverse populations.Still,its large scale and long duration make the findings reli- able:trees,not grass,are linked to healthier hearts.”,可知，研究者虽指出研究对象的局限性，需更多研究验证普适性， 但也认可研究规模和时长让“树木对心脏健康有益”的结论可靠，由此可见其态度是谨慎肯定的，故答案为B。 35.B标题概括题。通读全文，文章开篇以研究结果引出核心观点 一并非所有绿地对心血管健康的益处都相同，随后分 析了树木和草地对心脏健康影响不同的原因，还介绍了研究结论对城市规划的参考价值及研究的局限性，核心围绕 “不同绿地对心脏健康的影响存在差异”展开，B项最能概括全文主旨，故答案为B:

When opening his eyes again,Alexander saw the doctor's tired but relieved face."You made it,"the doctor said,patting his hand gently.Alexander tried to move his fingers,and he could feel the missing piece in his heart jumping alive.He sat up slowly,no longer feeling the emptiness that had followed him for 11 years.Outside the window,the eagle was still circling, and sunlight streamed in,wrapping him in warmth.In that moment,he knew he'd found his wholeness,and the dream of going home was finally within reach. 8 英语英语（二） 2026全国高考终极押题卷 考生注意： 1.本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，考生务必用直径05毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3.考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对 应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题 区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4.本卷命题范围：高考范围。 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分）】 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， 并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话读两遍。 1.What will Lisa do tomorrow afternoon?

B An ambitious project to restore a 4.3-mile stretch of the rare River Ash to its original course has been completed,according to Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust.The trust described the project,lo- cated at the Easneye Estate near Hertford,as a landmark one and one of the largest of its kind in the county.It took nearly eight years to plan and carry out,and also created a variety of new wetland habi- tats along the river. Sarah Perry,a worker in charge of the project,stated that the project would help protect the area from flooding and maintain the ecosystem balance.She added that the River Ash is one of only about 260 chalk rivers in the world-rare and unique river systems that support vulnerable(and en- dangered species,such as water mice,wild brown fish,and kingfishers. Despite their preciousness,chalk rivers have long been menaced by human activities,as well as pollution,over-abstraction(过度取水)，and the increasing impacts of climate change,with droughts and floods becoming more frequent.To address these issues,the restoration work included restoring the artificially straightened river to its natural winding path,reconnecting it to its floodplain,and raising the river bed with over 3,000 tons of stones.More than 300 woody features were placed in the water to shelter fish,and fifteen new ponds were also created. Ms.Perry expressed her satisfaction,saying it was rewarding to see such a large project completed （二)·英语 第3页（共八页） in Hertfordshire.She emphasized that the project not only brings hope to nature but also benefits hu- mans,as healthier rivers provide fresh water,protect against floods,maintain the essential ecosystem balance,and support people's wellbeing.She also noted that the cooperation with the Easneye Estate sets a good example for other rivers in the county,hoping it will promote more positive changes for rivers and nature's recovery. 24.What is the main purpose of the River Ash restoration project? A.To build more roads along the river. B.To create more jobs for local people. C.To protect the area and restore the ecosystem. D.To attract more tourists to the Easneye Estate. 25.Why are chalk rivers important according to the text? A.They can prevent climate changes. B.They support many rare and endangered species. C.They provide plenty of chances for construction. D.They are the most endangered river systems in the world. 26.What does the underlined word "menaced"in paragraph 3 probably mean? A.Directed. B.Promoted. C.Threatened. D.Developed. 27.What can be concluded from Sarah Perry's words? A.The project benefits wildlife and humans. B.The project was completed in a very short time C.The rivers are hardly affected by human activities. D.The project has set a model for other river restorations. C Every year in the U.S.,30%of fruit and vegetables grown by hard-working farmers never leave the field,mainly because they fail to meet appearance standards such as size,shape,or color.This results in an estimated $13 billion in economic losses for growers,while communities also lose the chance to put the produce that should reach their kitchen tables. To solve this problem,revaluing imperfect produce is a better way.That's where secondary mar- kets come in,turning waste into opportunity.Secondary markets buy what the primary market forgoes ()and then channel it into ingredients for buyers and processors where appearance doesn't matter, without sacrificing taste or quality. Not all produce needs to end up in grocery store displays.Processing channels like frozen,dried and meal kits offer enormous potential to use every strawberry,apple and tomato that comes out of the field.In Tennessee field studies,researchers found that 76%of the produce left unharvested was still marketable or edible(可食用的)一the kind of second-pass fruit and vegetables that a secondary market can collect and sell into frozen or foodservice channels. Companies like Chobani are leading this shift.Partnering with Planet Harvest,an organization that creates secondary markets for farmers,Chobani bought over 1.2 million pounds of imperfect strawber- ries this yearenough to produce over 55 million yogurt drinks.This initiative not only increases farmers'income but also helps save valuable resources that would otherwise be wasted.Many partici- pating farmers have reported earning extra income from fruits once considered useless,which greatly eases their economic pressure.Besides,this cooperation cuts greenhouse gas emissions()by 20% and diversifies the supply chain,making the food system more sustainable.More food companies are now following Chobani's example,expanding their purchases of imperfect produce to support farmers and reduce waste. Consumers also play a vital role.By accepting whole-harvest products made from otherwise wasted produce,they support a smarter food system that prioritizes management over waste.The author emphasizes that we don't need to grow more food to help solve hunger;we need to be better users of what we already grow.

D A study tracking nearly 90,000 American nurses for 18 years found that neighborhoods with more visible trees had about 4%lower rates of heart attack,while areas with more grass had about 6%higher rates.These are relative differences,not guaranteed changes for any individual.By analyzing 350 million street-view photos with Al,researchers discovered that not all green space is equally beneficial for car- diovascular(心血管的)health. For decades,public health experts have advised people to enjoy nature,assuming all green spaces are equally good.However,this research shows a clear distinction:satellite images can't tell tree-shaded streets from grass-covered suburbs,but they affect heart health differently.Even after considering factors like smoking,diet,exercise,income and air pollution,trees still appeared protective while grass did not. Researchers suggest several reasons for this difference.Trees trap harmful pollution particles( )cool neighborhoods far more effectively than grasslands-this is critical during heat waves that put great stress on the heart and blood vessels(Il).They also reduce loud traffic noise,which previous research has linked to high blood pressure and increased heart disease risk.Additionally,tree-lined streets are more inviting,encouraging people to walk more and have more social interaction,both of which benefit heart health.Grass,by contrast,offers few of these benefits-regular cutting creates noise and air pollution,and it provides little cooling and offers insufficient measures to deal with pollution. The protective effect of trees was most obvious within 500 meters of people's homes,not just the immediate 100 meters,which is good news for urban planning.Prioritizing trees in cities,rather than grass,can deliver greater cardiovascular benefits. Notably,the study followed only female nurses,so more research is needed to confirm if the pat- tern applies to men and diverse populations.Still,its large scale and long duration make the findings re- liable:trees,not grass,are linked to healthier hearts. 32.How does the author mainly develop Paragraph 3? A.By giving examples. B.By making comparisons. C.By listing research data. D.By using famous sayings. 33.What do the study's findings suggest? A.Grass brings no benefits to the urban environment at all. B.The study's results are applicable to all populations worldwide. C.Urban planning should attach more importance to planting trees. D.Heart attack rates will drop by 4%if people live near tree-lined streets. 34.What is the researchers'attitude towards the effect of trees on cardiovascular health? A.Totally doubtful. B.Cautiously positive C.Extremely optimistic. D.Unnecessarily worried. （二)·英语 第5页（共八页） 35.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.AI Helps Analyze Green Space's Effect on Health B.Not All Green Space Is Equally Good for Heart Health C.A Long-Term Study on American Nurses'Heart Health D.Tree-lined Streets Reduce the Risk of Cardiovascular Disease 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选 项。 Deep reading,defined as immersive engagement with text that promotes comprehension and crit- ical thinking,is increasingly rare in the digital age.36 For students and professionals alike,reclaiming this skill can unlock new levels of learning and insight.Here are four evidence-based strategies to cul- tivate deep reading habits. First,practice "pre-reading setup"to prepare your mind for engagement.Before diving into a text, spend 5-10 minutes examining its structure:scan headings,subheadings,and topic sentences.37This initial framework helps you organize new information and connect it to existing knowledge. Second,minimize distractions to enter a state of"flow"with the text.Digital devices are the big- gest troublemaker-studies show even passive phone presence reduces reading comprehension by 27%.38Create a dedicated reading space free of screens,and consider using tools like website blockers during reading sessions.For longer texts,work in 25-minute intervals to maintain focus with- out mental fatigue. _39 Instead of highlighting every other sentence,use active note-taking methods:circle key terms,write marginal notes to challenge arguments,and draw connections between paragraphs.One effective technique is the "SQ3R"method-Survey,Question,Read,Recite,Review-which in- tegrates active engagement with periodic recall. Finally,engage in "post-reading reflection"to solidify understanding.After finishing a text,take 10 minutes to summarize its main points in your own words.40Discussing the text with peers or writing a short response also strengthens memory and critical analysis.Think of this step as "closing the loop"-it transforms passive absorption into active mastery. By combining these strategies,you can rebuild the lost art of deep reading.In an era of information overload,this skill isn't just valuable-it's essential for making sense of complex ideas. A.Active note-taking is key to deep reading. B.This practice is far more effective than passive skimming. C.Distractions not only reduce focus but also impair memory consolidation. D.However,digital tools can also enhance deep reading with interactive features. E.You can also sum up the text in a single paragraph to test your comprehension. F.This helps you identify the author's main arguments and structural logic in advance. G.Many like to read in a shallow way-scanning for key words instead of deep engagement. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was a young child,I was drawn to a book about a girl whose grandma had gone to heav- en.One night,I asked my grandmother to read it to me.As she gave the gentle words,I closed my eyes,41 the warm moment,with her soft voice 42 in my ears.

When doctors asked if he wanted to "jump into a frying pan"-their way of suggesting a new, untested treatment trial-Alexander of Severe agreed at once. The doctors assured him the treatment,to be given far from the city in a quiet,wooded medical facility,had worked well on animals,with most showing remarkable improvements.Alexander signed his agreement immediately and rode to the testing facility with the help of a gentle doctor who'd long sympathized with his struggle. During the journey,he stared at the outside world he hadn't seen in 11 years,at green trees swaying in the wind and blue sky streaked with clouds,wondering about his forgotten past-maybe he was a painter,or a great singer. Upon arriving,they stayed for the night in a simple but bright room,and the next morning the doctor sat with Alexander and told him the truth:some animal subjects had died from unexpected side effects,and he might die,too."I want to help you,"the doctor said. "That's okay,Doc,"he said,as he looked at the trees in the distance."Maybe I'll find my missing piece."The doctor stood,and they walked toward the testing lab side by side.Alexander raised his face to the sky,where an eagle circled high above,its wings outstretched-a silent sign of hope for the wholeness he'd sought for so long. 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。 In the testing lab,the doctor helped him lie down and explained the treatment softly When opening his eyes again,Alexander saw the doctor's tired but relieved face.
