Erin Doguet has a farm in Texas that is full of animals she adores. There are over 200 animals, to be more specific. So, with plans to visit Colorado on holiday, she had to get someone to watch them. Her sister, Shannon, and pet sitter, Taelyn, were more than happy to help. Unfortunately, this is when parts of Texas underwent dangerous floods, requiring a full-blown rescue mission to save Erin’s dog, Ziva.
Ziva took off after a wild boar (野猪), causing her to end up on the back section of the farm, which is bordered by the Medina River. As she was running after the boar across the river, the flood waters rose swiftly.
Having found Ziva missing, Shannon and Taelyn began searching for her and they phoned Erin. Thanks to the Tractive GPS collar Ziva was wearing, it was Erin who located the missing pup. So, from 1, 500 miles away, Erin helped both Shannon and Taelyn make their way to the frightened pet. By the time they arrived, Ziva was still caught up.
Ziva was found trapped in a flooded gully (沟) along the Medina River. The roaring river blocked any escape back home, and the three other sides were too steep (陡) and slippery for her to climb out on her own.
By the time she was found, poor Ziva was exhausted. This meant Shannon and Taelyn had to move her 120-pound body to safety with no help from the dog herself. It was difficult, but in the end, they were able to rescue this sweet dog just in time. In fact, she managed to make it out of this harrowing ordeal without any physical harm. Once she returned home, she simply drank a ton of water and slept for 12 hours.
4. What was Ziva doing before she was trapped near the River?
A. She was looking for Erin’s sister. B. She was chasing another animal.
C. She was wandering around the farm. D. She was trying to escape the flood.
5. What contributed to determining where Ziva was trapped?
A. A tracking device. B. Ziva’s footprints.
C. The pet sitter’s guiding. D. Help from a rescue team.
6. What prevented Ziva from escaping on her own?
A. Extreme tiredness. B. Serious injury.
C. Lack of courage. D. Surrounding conditions.
7. What does the underlined part “this harrowing ordeal” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. The fun adventure. B. The quick escape.
C. The training exercise. D. The painful experience.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D
【解析】

【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Thanks to the Tractive GPS collar Ziva was wearing, it was Erin who located the missing pup.(多亏了齐瓦佩戴的这款特拉科提克GPS定位项圈,艾琳成功找到了这只走失的小狗。)”可知,追踪定位设备帮助确定了齐瓦被困的位置。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“The roaring river blocked any escape back home, and the three other sides were too steep (陡) and slippery for her to climb out on her own.(汹涌的河水阻断了她回家的退路,其余三面地势又陡又滑,她根本无法独自攀爬出去。)”可知,周边环境条件让齐瓦无法独自逃生。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上文“It was difficult, but in the end, they were able to rescue this sweet dog just in time.(过程十分艰难,但最终他们及时救下了这只可爱的狗狗。)”可知,所幸经历这场磨难后,齐瓦身体毫发无伤。由此可知,this harrowing ordeal意为“痛苦的经历”。
C
A quiet revolution is happening in autonomous systems, freeing us from hard labor and giving us more control over our lives. A robotaxis can give you a smooth ride to wherever you need to go while a humanoid robot can handle chores at home.
Undoubtedly, instead of spending time driving, or folding laundry, we can engage in intellectual (智力的), artistic, and social pursuits that were previously unimaginable. We can learn new languages, develop new skills, or connect more deeply with loved ones. We are close to a future where the freedom to create and explore is no longer limited by the demands of daily life.
However, undeniable convenience as these autonomous systems offer, there’s something special about the tasks they aim to replace. Learning to drive, or even folding laundry is not just chores but the very fabric of our human experience. The first time you got behind the wheel of a car gave you a moment of growth and independence. Folding laundry can be a quiet, reflective moment — a reminder that life is made up of simple rhythms.
Here lies the contradiction: Autonomy isn’t just about freedom from work but control. As we hand over more control to machines, we are losing some of our own.
Take Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) system for example. Despite the incredible convenience and safety it offers, we need to reflect on what we might be leaving behind as we move closer to this reality. For many, driving is more than just a means of getting from one destination to another — it’s an experience about freedom and control. The sensory connection to the road, and even the joy of mastering the art of driving are elements that technology might replace, but not necessarily reproduce.
True human autonomy is not just about handing over daily tasks to machines. It’s about the choice to engage in those tasks when we want to. The simple act of driving a car, or cleaning a home is more than just a function; it’s an expression of our humanity. Perhaps that’s the real challenge in front of us as autonomous systems become more integrated into our lives: How to use these machines to enhance our freedom without losing the very expression of our humanity.
8. What do autonomous systems enable us to get according to paragraph 2?
A. Higher intellectual ambitions. B. Greater abilities to handle chores.
C. A free future of living without limits. D. More opportunities to develop creativity.
9. What do we lose to autonomy according to the author?
A. A sense of control. B. A sense of purpose.
C. The ability to learn. D. The ability to do daily tasks.
10. Why does the author mention “Tesla’s FSD system”?
A. To demonstrate the joy of driving.
B. To reveal the loss of human experience.
C. To argue against the freedom from work.
D. To exhibit the technological convenience.
11. What message does the author mainly convey?
A. Technology serves as a helping hand.
B. Technology offers us more than freedom.
C. Conflicts between autonomy and humanity.
D. The autonomous systems around the corner.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文辩证探讨智能自主系统的利弊。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“We are close to a future where the freedom to create and explore is no longer limited by the demands of daily life.(我们即将迎来这样一个未来,创作与探索的自由,不再被日常生活的琐事所束缚。)”可知,自动化系统使我们能够获得更多培养创造力的机会。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“As we hand over more control to machines, we are losing some of our own.(随着我们把更多控制权交给机器,我们也正在丧失自身的部分主导权。)”可知,自主科技夺走了人类对生活事务的亲身掌控权。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Take Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) system for example. Despite the incredible convenience and safety it offers, we need to reflect on what we might be leaving behind as we move closer to this reality. …The sensory connection to the road, and even the joy of mastering the art of driving are elements that technology might replace, but not necessarily reproduce.(以特斯拉全自动驾驶系统(FSD)为例。尽管它带来了极大的便利与安全保障,但在我们一步步迈入这一现实的同时,也需要深思我们可能正在舍弃的东西。……人与道路之间的感官联结,乃至熟练掌握驾驶技艺所带来的乐趣,这些都是科技或许能够取代,却未必能复刻重现的美好。)”可知,作者举特斯拉自动驾驶例子,是为说明科技便利背后,人类独有的生活体验正在消失。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。本文辩证探讨智能自主系统的利弊:一方面自主系统解放人力,让人们拥有更多时间去创造、探索、提升自我;另一方面人类逐步把生活掌控权交给机器,丢失了亲身劳作带来的成长体验、生活感悟与自我掌控感。作者最终点明核心矛盾:如何平衡智能科技带来的便利,守护独属于人类的生活体验与人性本质。由此可知,作者想要传达的信息是自主科技与人性之间的冲突。

Taking medicine can help us get better when we’re ill. But our bodies won’t absorb all of a drug. The leftovers leave in our urine (尿). Water treatment plants were never designed to remove those drugs. So they just flow through these cleanup plants and into rivers or other sources of drinking water. But a simple low-cost, two-step process could help end that. As a matter of fact, this process was initially aimed at removing plant fertilizers because they can cause the rapid growth of harmful microbes in lakes, rivers and streams.
To address algal blooms (藻华), a research team led by Dr. Wei Zheng, an environmental chemist at the University of Illinois, developed an innovative yet simple two-step method. The first stage uses wood chips to break down nitrates — substances that promote algal growth. Through a natural chemical process, the wood chips transform nitrogen from nitrates into harmless gas that escapes into the atmosphere.
The second stage involves a specially treated charcoal (木炭) that captures phosphorus, another key nutrient responsible for algal blooms. This material acts like activated carbon, trapping phosphorus molecules on its surface. When used together, the two materials remove 77% of nitrogen-based compounds and 99% of phosphorus pollutants.
Beyond nutrient removal, the system also targets drugs. Laboratory tests demonstrated its efficiency in eliminating over two-thirds of common pain relievers like ibuprofen and naproxen. It also removed more than 90% of a diabetes drug and 97% of a hormone treatment medication.
But those tests were in the lab. Now Zheng’s team wants to test the process on real wastewater samples. They also want to scale up their system so it can handle high volumes of water.
Mou at Kent State University wonders how well the new method might work when levels are very low. Still, she can imagine that this new process might be particularly useful where levels of medicinal pollution might be high. Near hospitals is one example, or downstream of factories that make medicines.
12. What does paragraph 1 say about leftover drugs?
A. They build up in our body. B. They may end up in the rivers.
C. They damage our urine system. D. They are treated in cleanup plants.
13. What is the function of wood chips in the two-step process?
A. To facilitate algal blooms. B. To absorb a harmful gas.
C. To break down a chemical. D. To help clean the environment.
14. What can be inferred about the new two-step water treatment process?
A. It is still in the experimental stage.
B. It was originally designed to remove drugs.
C. It is expected to be widely used in hospitals.
D. It requires expensive materials and complex technology.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Look into Future Wastewater Treatment Plants
B. An Appeal for Controlling Nutrient Contents in Rivers
C. A Widespread Application of Newfound Leftover Drugs
D. A Simple and Low-Cost Solution to Water Drug Pollution
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍一种简易低成本的两步水处理法,原本用于净水除养分,还可清除水体药物残留污染。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Water treatment plants were never designed to remove those drugs. So they just flow through these cleanup plants and into rivers or other sources of drinking water.(污水处理厂从未设计用来清除这些药物,于是它们径直流过净化设施,流入河流以及其他饮用水水源。)”可知,未被处理的药物残留最终可能汇入河流。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The first stage uses wood chips to break down nitrates — substances that promote algal growth.(第一阶段使用木屑来分解硝酸盐,这种物质会助长藻类滋生。)”可知,木屑在该流程里起到分解化学物质的作用。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“But those tests were in the lab. Now Zheng’s team wants to test the process on real wastewater samples.(但这些测试都仅在实验室进行,如今郑的团队打算用真实废水样本测试这套流程。)”可知,这套全新的两步水处理方式目前还处在实验阶段。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是首段中的“But a simple low-cost, two-step process could help end that. As a matter of fact, this process was initially aimed at removing plant fertilizers because they can cause the rapid growth of harmful microbes in lakes, rivers and streams.(但一种简便低成本的两步处理方式能够改善这一现状,事实上该方法最初旨在去除植物肥料,因为肥料会致使河湖溪流中有害微生物快速滋生。)”可知,文章先是点明水体药物污染难题,再详细介绍这款低成本简易净水方案的原理、成效与研发进度,核心围绕低成本简易办法治理水中药物污染展开,所以“一种解决水体药物污染的简易低成本方案”最能概括全文核心,适合作为最佳标题。

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。
Cork fabric (橡树皮织物) is a natural material obtained from the bark of the cork oak tree, which grows mainly in the western Mediterranean region. ____16____ This material is highly sustainable because the tree bark regenerates after each harvest, making cork both renewable and biodegradable. Additionally, most cork-based products can be fully recycled.
____17____ Known for being lightweight, water-resistant, and thermally insulating (隔热的), it is used in construction, musical instruments, insulation for rockets, packaging, footwear, furniture, and increasingly, in fashion industry.
The cork harvesting process is carried out by hand by skilled workers using a specialized tool. The first harvest occurs when the tree is between 20 and 30 years old. Subsequent harvests are scheduled every nine years. ____18____ After harvesting, the cork undergoes boiling, sorting, drying, and further processing based on the intended use.
To produce cork fabric, the raw cork is air-dried for approximately six weeks. ____19____ Since cork alone can be easily broken, these sheets are usually pressed into very thin pieces or bonded to a textile (纺织品) backing to improve strength and durability. This reinforced material can then be sewn and used like conventional fabric.
Although cork has been used for thousands of years in items like footwear, its use expanded in the late 20th century to include furniture and surface coverings. Cork fabric, specifically designed in fashion industry, has gained significant attention only in the 21st century. Today, cork leather is widely recognized as an eco-friendly and alternative to animal leather. It is used in products such as handbags, wallets, belts, shoes, and dresses. Cork fabric is favored for its sustainability, and minimal environmental footprint. ____20____
A. Cork fabric has a wide range of applications.
B. It is then boiled, pressed, and cut into thin flexible sheets.
C. This practice allows the bark sufficient time to regenerate.
D. Therefore, it is becoming a preferred material in green design.

42. conventional
43. in 44. simply
45. openness
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了位于上海威海路412号的查公馆。
【36题详解】
考查时态。句意:这座三层建筑建于20世纪20年代,是两位著名画家的住所,位于上海威海路412号,在当地历史园林住宅中脱颖而出。句子描述客观事实,应用一般现在时。主语The three-floor structure是单数,所以谓语动词stand用第三人称单数形式stands。
【37题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:经过八年的修复,它已经恢复到一个世纪前最初的样子。此处为连接词引导的宾语从句,作介词to的宾语,从句中缺少宾语,且指物,所以用连接代词what引导。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这座房子在南侧看起来类似于一座普通的欧洲城堡,顶部有两座带小尖顶的塔楼。此处泛指“一座普通的欧洲城堡”,common是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这座房子在南侧看起来类似于一座普通的欧洲城堡,顶部有两座带小尖顶的塔楼。句中已有谓语动词looks,此处应用非谓语动词。The house与feature之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词featuring作状语,表主动和伴随。
【40题详解】
考查代词。句意:修复人员设法获取原始图纸、家具和物品,以恢复它的旧貌。此处修饰名词old look,应用形容词性物主代词its,意为“它的”。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:然而,保存长期经受考验的主结构并不容易。it is +形容词 + to do sth.为固定句型,意为“做某事是……的”,其中it为形式主语,真正的主语是动词不定式to preserve。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:幸运的是,工人们努力寻找类似的材料,并使用各种传统技能来修复门窗。此处修饰名词skills,应用形容词conventional,意为“传统的”。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:查公馆以其创始人查起鸣的名义向公众开放,查起鸣是上海一位成功的商人。in honor of为固定短语,意为“为纪念……,以……的名义”。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:查公馆,作为文化融合的象征,对我们来说意义远不止简单地吸引那些欣赏建筑的人。此处修饰动词appealing,应用副词simply,意为“仅仅,简单地”。
【45题详解】
考查名词。句意:它也代表了像上海这样的现代城市及其开放性和包容性。根据空前的their以及空后的and inclusiveness可知,此处应用名词openness,意为“开放性”,与inclusiveness并列,作represents的宾语,是不可数名词。

The Unbroken Journey
In the small town of Wilson, Pennsylvania, the announcement of a tenth-grade trip to Washington, D. C. , sent waves of excitement through the hallways of the local high school. For many, it was a chance to see the nation’s capital — its monuments, its museums and its spirit. But for Sarah, it was more than that. It was a dream she never thought would come true. Coming from a family that could scarcely afford such luxuries, she had never left her hometown. This trip was her window to the world.
Unfortunately, something unexpected happened a week before the departure. Sarah was hit by a car while crossing the street. She woke up in hospital with a cast around her left leg and a wheelchair by her bed. The doctor’s words echoed (回响) in her ears: “You won’t be walking for a while.” Her heart sank. The trip — the one thing she had looked forward to—was now slipping through her fingers.
Several days later, Sarah was back to school. She watched with teary eyes as her classmates discussed the trip and what they would pack into their suitcases. It felt as though the world had moved on without her. Her best friend, Elle, noticed everything and she was determined to figure out a way to get Sarah on the trip.
“We’re still going,” Elle said one afternoon, sitting beside Sarah’s wheelchair. “You’re not missing this. I won’t let you.”
Sarah shook her head. “How? I can’t even walk.”
“You don’t have to,” Elle replied firmly. “I’ll push you. We’ll talk to Mr. Davis. We’ll make it work.”
With renewed determination, the two girls met with their history teacher, Mr. Davis. Elle did most of the talking, her voice passionate yet respectful. She argued that the trip held deep significance for Sarah. Mr. Davis, touched by their bond, agreed to make arrangements.

【答案】范文
On the morning of the trip, Elle arrived early, waiting for Sarah beside the bus. When Sarah arrived in her wheelchair, Elle and some other students helped her get on the bus, folded up her wheelchair and took care of it. Arriving in Washington, Sarah was helped into her chair and the students took turns to wheel her carefully. They also held doors open for her, made sure she had the best view wherever they went and they even arranged their group photo so Sarah was right in the middle.
At dusk, they got on the bus and started their journey back. Sarah looked around at her friends — especially Elle, who was still by her side. She called the attention of her fellow students and expressed her sincere gratitude to them, saying she couldn’t have enjoyed the trip without them. Everybody was happy that Sarah had enjoyed the trip. They came to realize that the trip wasn’t just about the places she’d seen, but also about true friendship which isn’t just about being there when it’s easy and more importantly it’s also about showing up when it’s hard.

Erin Doguet has a farm in Texas that is full of animals she adores. There are over 200 animals, to be more specific. So, with plans to visit Colorado on holiday, she had to get someone to watch them. Her sister, Shannon, and pet sitter, Taelyn, were more than happy to help. Unfortunately, this is when parts of Texas underwent dangerous floods, requiring a full-blown rescue mission to save Erin’s dog, Ziva.
Ziva took off after a wild boar (野猪), causing her to end up on the back section of the farm, which is bordered by the Medina River. As she was running after the boar across the river, the flood waters rose swiftly.
Having found Ziva missing, Shannon and Taelyn began searching for her and they phoned Erin. Thanks to the Tractive GPS collar Ziva was wearing, it was Erin who located the missing pup. So, from 1, 500 miles away, Erin helped both Shannon and Taelyn make their way to the frightened pet. By the time they arrived, Ziva was still caught up.
Ziva was found trapped in a flooded gully (沟) along the Medina River. The roaring river blocked any escape back home, and the three other sides were too steep (陡) and slippery for her to climb out on her own.
By the time she was found, poor Ziva was exhausted. This meant Shannon and Taelyn had to move her 120-pound body to safety with no help from the dog herself. It was difficult, but in the end, they were able to rescue this sweet dog just in time. In fact, she managed to make it out of this harrowing ordeal without any physical harm. Once she returned home, she simply drank a ton of water and slept for 12 hours.
4. What was Ziva doing before she was trapped near the River?
A. She was looking for Erin’s sister. B. She was chasing another animal.
C. She was wandering around the farm. D. She was trying to escape the flood.
5. What contributed to determining where Ziva was trapped?
A. A tracking device. B. Ziva’s footprints.
C. The pet sitter’s guiding. D. Help from a rescue team.
6. What prevented Ziva from escaping on her own?
A. Extreme tiredness. B. Serious injury.
C. Lack of courage. D. Surrounding conditions.
7. What does the underlined part “this harrowing ordeal” probably mean in the last paragraph?
A. The fun adventure. B. The quick escape.
C. The training exercise. D. The painful experience.
C
A quiet revolution is happening in autonomous systems, freeing us from hard labor and giving us more control over our lives. A robotaxis can give you a smooth ride to wherever you need to go while a humanoid robot can handle chores at home.
Undoubtedly, instead of spending time driving, or folding laundry, we can engage in intellectual (智力的), artistic, and social pursuits that were previously unimaginable. We can learn new languages, develop new skills, or connect more deeply with loved ones. We are close to a future where the freedom to create and explore is no longer limited by the demands of daily life.
However, undeniable convenience as these autonomous systems offer, there’s something special about the tasks they aim to replace. Learning to drive, or even folding laundry is not just chores but the very fabric of our human experience. The first time you got behind the wheel of a car gave you a moment of growth and independence. Folding laundry can be a quiet, reflective moment — a reminder that life is made up of simple rhythms.
Here lies the contradiction: Autonomy isn’t just about freedom from work but control. As we hand over more control to machines, we are losing some of our own.
Take Tesla’s Full Self-Driving (FSD) system for example. Despite the incredible convenience and safety it offers, we need to reflect on what we might be leaving behind as we move closer to this reality. For many, driving is more than just a means of getting from one destination to another — it’s an experience about freedom and control. The sensory connection to the road, and even the joy of mastering the art of driving are elements that technology might replace, but not necessarily reproduce.
True human autonomy is not just about handing over daily tasks to machines. It’s about the choice to engage in those tasks when we want to. The simple act of driving a car, or cleaning a home is more than just a function; it’s an expression of our humanity. Perhaps that’s the real challenge in front of us as autonomous systems become more integrated into our lives: How to use these machines to enhance our freedom without losing the very expression of our humanity.
8. What do autonomous systems enable us to get according to paragraph 2?
A. Higher intellectual ambitions. B. Greater abilities to handle chores.
C. A free future of living without limits. D. More opportunities to develop creativity.
9. What do we lose to autonomy according to the author?
A. A sense of control. B. A sense of purpose.
C. The ability to learn. D. The ability to do daily tasks.
10. Why does the author mention “Tesla’s FSD system”?
A. To demonstrate the joy of driving.
B. To reveal the loss of human experience.
C. To argue against the freedom from work.
D. To exhibit the technological convenience.
11. What message does the author mainly convey?
A. Technology serves as a helping hand.
B. Technology offers us more than freedom.
C. Conflicts between autonomy and humanity.
D. The autonomous systems around the corner.
D
Taking medicine can help us get better when we’re ill. But our bodies won’t absorb all of a drug. The leftovers leave in our urine (尿). Water treatment plants were never designed to remove those drugs. So they just flow through these cleanup plants and into rivers or other sources of drinking water. But a simple low-cost, two-step process could help end that. As a matter of fact, this process was initially aimed at removing plant fertilizers because they can cause the rapid growth of harmful microbes in lakes, rivers and streams.
To address algal blooms (藻华), a research team led by Dr. Wei Zheng, an environmental chemist at the University of Illinois, developed an innovative yet simple two-step method. The first stage uses wood chips to break down nitrates — substances that promote algal growth. Through a natural chemical process, the wood chips transform nitrogen from nitrates into harmless gas that escapes into the atmosphere.
The second stage involves a specially treated charcoal (木炭) that captures phosphorus, another key nutrient responsible for algal blooms. This material acts like activated carbon, trapping phosphorus molecules on its surface. When used together, the two materials remove 77% of nitrogen-based compounds and 99% of phosphorus pollutants.
Beyond nutrient removal, the system also targets drugs. Laboratory tests demonstrated its efficiency in eliminating over two-thirds of common pain relievers like ibuprofen and naproxen. It also removed more than 90% of a diabetes drug and 97% of a hormone treatment medication.
But those tests were in the lab. Now Zheng’s team wants to test the process on real wastewater samples. They also want to scale up their system so it can handle high volumes of water.
Mou at Kent State University wonders how well the new method might work when levels are very low. Still, she can imagine that this new process might be particularly useful where levels of medicinal pollution might be high. Near hospitals is one example, or downstream of factories that make medicines.
12. What does paragraph 1 say about leftover drugs?
A. They build up in our body. B. They may end up in the rivers.
C. They damage our urine system. D. They are treated in cleanup plants.
13. What is the function of wood chips in the two-step process?
A. To facilitate algal blooms. B. To absorb a harmful gas.
C. To break down a chemical. D. To help clean the environment.
14. What can be inferred about the new two-step water treatment process?
A. It is still in the experimental stage.
B. It was originally designed to remove drugs.
C. It is expected to be widely used in hospitals.
D. It requires expensive materials and complex technology.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. A Look into Future Wastewater Treatment Plants
B. An Appeal for Controlling Nutrient Contents in Rivers
C. A Widespread Application of Newfound Leftover Drugs
D. A Simple and Low-Cost Solution to Water Drug Pollution

Cork fabric (橡树皮织物) is a natural material obtained from the bark of the cork oak tree, which grows mainly in the western Mediterranean region. ____16____ This material is highly sustainable because the tree bark regenerates after each harvest, making cork both renewable and biodegradable. Additionally, most cork-based products can be fully recycled.
____17____ Known for being lightweight, water-resistant, and thermally insulating (隔热的), it is used in construction, musical instruments, insulation for rockets, packaging, footwear, furniture, and increasingly, in fashion industry.
The cork harvesting process is carried out by hand by skilled workers using a specialized tool. The first harvest occurs when the tree is between 20 and 30 years old. Subsequent harvests are scheduled every nine years. ____18____ After harvesting, the cork undergoes boiling, sorting, drying, and further processing based on the intended use.
To produce cork fabric, the raw cork is air-dried for approximately six weeks. ____19____ Since cork alone can be easily broken, these sheets are usually pressed into very thin pieces or bonded to a textile (纺织品) backing to improve strength and durability. This reinforced material can then be sewn and used like conventional fabric.

The Unbroken Journey
In the small town of Wilson, Pennsylvania, the announcement of a tenth-grade trip to Washington, D. C. , sent waves of excitement through the hallways of the local high school. For many, it was a chance to see the nation’s capital — its monuments, its museums and its spirit. But for Sarah, it was more than that. It was a dream she never thought would come true. Coming from a family that could scarcely afford such luxuries, she had never left her hometown. This trip was her window to the world.
Unfortunately, something unexpected happened a week before the departure. Sarah was hit by a car while crossing the street. She woke up in hospital with a cast around her left leg and a wheelchair by her bed. The doctor’s words echoed (回响) in her ears: “You won’t be walking for a while.” Her heart sank. The trip — the one thing she had looked forward to—was now slipping through her fingers.
Several days later, Sarah was back to school. She watched with teary eyes as her classmates discussed the trip and what they would pack into their suitcases. It felt as though the world had moved on without her. Her best friend, Elle, noticed everything and she was determined to figure out a way to get Sarah on the trip.
“We’re still going,” Elle said one afternoon, sitting beside Sarah’s wheelchair. “You’re not missing this. I won’t let you.”
Sarah shook her head. “How? I can’t even walk.”
“You don’t have to,” Elle replied firmly. “I’ll push you. We’ll talk to Mr. Davis. We’ll make it work.”
With renewed determination, the two girls met with their history teacher, Mr. Davis. Elle did most of the talking, her voice passionate yet respectful. She argued that the trip held deep significance for Sarah. Mr. Davis, touched by their bond, agreed to make arrangements.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
On the morning of the trip, Elle arrived early, waiting for Sarah beside the bus.
