A)阅读下面四篇短文,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中,选择最佳选项。
A
Do you know that we may not be able to see some beautiful places of interest around the world in the future? Let’s have a look at them before they disappear.
The Great Wall, China
The Great Wall has a history of thousands of years. But over half of it was lost and some are disappearing. There are many reasons such as the influence of wind and rain, but the main reason is human activities.
Venice, Italy
The city may not float (漂浮) for much longer because Venice will go underwater in 100 years. Since 1897, sea level in Venice has risen by 30cm because of climate change. Also, Venice faced serious flooding (水灾) in November 2019. Waters rose 1.87 metres above normal.
The Dead Sea
At 416 metres below sea level, the Dead Sea is much saltier than oceans. Everyone will be able to float, even though you can’t swim. But it has lost 1/3 of its surface area in the past 60 years because of the mineral (矿) pollution and farming.
26.Why can everyone float in the Dead Sea?
A.It is 416 metres below sea level. B.It is much saltier than oceans.
C.It has lost 1/3 of its surface area. D.It is because of industry and farming.
27.According to the chart, which of the following reasons may make these places disappear in the future?
①pollution ②animals ③human activities ④weather
A.①②③ B.②③④ C.①③④ D.①②④

【答案】26.B 27.C 28.D
【导语】本文介绍了三处可能消失的景点,说明长城、威尼斯、死海面临消失的原因,提醒人们关注这些地方。
26.死海部分说明原因:“At 416 metres below sea level, the Dead Sea is much saltier than oceans. Everyone will be able to float, even though you can’t swim.”,直接点明死海咸度比海洋高得多,所以人能浮在水面上。
27.长城部分列举:“There are many reasons such as the influence of wind and rain, but the main reason is human activities.”,明确提到风、雨(weather)和人类活动;威尼斯部分提到“sea level in Venice has risen by 30cm because of climate change”和“flooding”,均与天气/气候相关;死海部分提到“because of the mineral pollution and farming”,属于人类活动范畴,也会造成水污染;文中未提及动物相关因素,因此①污染、③人类活动、④天气均符合。
28.通读全文可知,文章介绍了长城、威尼斯、死海等世界知名景点及其面临的消失危机,这类内容通常出现在杂志的旅游板块。
B
The Green Miracle (奇迹) of Saihanba
Long ago, Saihanba was a beautiful forest with many birds and animals. But in the late Qing Dynasty (朝代), people cut down too many trees. Years later, the forest disappeared and the area became a barren (贫瘠的) desert. Strong sandstorms (沙尘暴) often hit Beijing, which is not far away.
In 1962, the Chinese government decided to change this. A group of foresters (护林人) came to Saihanba. Life was very hard there. The temperature could fall to -40°C in winter. There was no house to live in and little food to eat. However, these foresters did not give up. They planted trees year after year. Many trees died in the beginning, but they kept trying.
▲ First, they found the right kind of trees that could survive in the cold and dry soil (土壤). Second, they developed new planting methods (方法). Today, Saihanba is once again a huge forest. It is now known as the “Green Pearl (珍珠)” of North China.
The change brings many benefits (益处). The forest stops sandstorms from reaching Beijing. It also provides clean water and fresh air for millions of people. Many rare (稀有的) animals and birds have returned to their home.
However, protecting the forest is still a long job. The foresters say, “Planting trees is easy, but keeping them alive is hard.” They continue to watch over the forest every day. They use technology to prevent fires and diseases. People all over the world admire (钦佩) the spirit of the Saihanba foresters. It shows that humans and nature can live together in harmony (和谐) if we work hard and never give up.
29.What happened to Saihanba years after the late Qing Dynasty?
A.It became a famous tourist spot. B.It became a large city.
C.It was flooded by heavy rain. D.It turned into a barren desert.
30.Which sentence can be put in ▲?

C.When did they start planting? D.Where did they get the seeds?
31.What is the main benefit of the forest today?
A.It produces a lot of wood for sale. B.It attracts many foreign visitors only.
C.It stops sandstorms and provides clean resources. D.It makes the weather hotter in winter.
32.What is the main idea of the passage?
A.How to plant trees in cold weather.
B.The change of Saihanba from desert to forest and its importance.
C.The history of Beijing’s weather.
D.The difficulties foresters face in their daily life.
【答案】29.D 30.A 31.C 32.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了塞罕坝从清末的茂密森林,因过度砍伐退化为荒漠,再到1962年后护林人克服重重困难、科学造林,最终重新成为 “华北绿珍珠” 的历程,展现了塞罕坝精神和人与自然和谐共生的主题。
29.根据文章第一段中“But in the late Qing Dynasty (朝代), people cut down too many trees. Years later, the forest disappeared and the area became a barren (贫瘠的) desert.”,直接说明清末因过度砍伐,塞罕坝变成了贫瘠的沙漠。
30.根据文章▲后内容是“First, they found the right kind of trees... Second, they developed new planting methods (方法).”,这是护林人成功的具体方法,因此空处应是引出“他们如何成功”的问句。
31.根据文章第四段中“The forest stops sandstorms from reaching Beijing. It also provides clean water and fresh air for millions of people.”,说明森林的核心益处是阻挡沙尘暴、提供清洁资源。
32.文围绕塞罕坝从森林到荒漠、再恢复为森林的变化展开,同时阐述了这一变化带来的环境效益与重要意义,B项完整概括了文章核心内容。
C
My hometown is a very beautiful town near the sea. It has a long history. Its old town centre was built in the 1500s. It’s a place where visitors can go back in time to a different world.
Many of the local people are farmers. However, farming is not the only business here today. Tourists all over the world are coming to learn about the town and its history—and spend money. This has brought hope and money to the town. Many people think that tourism will decide the future of the town.
“This is an easier way to make money. Now we have a very good chance to develop tourism and help our economy,” some people say. However, tourism has also caused problems. The local environment has become worse because of pollution.
The local people want a business that makes money, but they know they have to be very careful. ________ They have to make some important decisions. Will they be able to take action to improve the situation? Will they further develop tourism? No one knows. The future of their beautiful town may depend on the decisions they make today.

【答案】33.B 34.C 35.D 36.D
【导语】本文介绍了作者临海、历史悠久的家乡,讲述当地依靠农业与旅游业发展经济,旅游业在带来收益的同时也造成了环境问题,当地人需要谨慎管控旅游业、做出关乎小镇未来的抉择
33.第一段指出:“Its old town centre was built in the 1500s.”,这直接说明作者的家乡是一座古老的城镇。
34.第二段提到:“Many of the local people are farmers. However, farming is not the only business here today. Tourists all over the world are coming...”,明确了这里主要的产业是农业和旅游业。
35.第三段表明:“However, tourism has also caused problems. The local environment has become worse because of pollution.”,可以推断出旅游业带来的问题是当地环境不如以前干净了。
36.最后一段前文说到当地人想要赚钱,但是必须十分谨慎,后文又说他们要做出重要决定、管控旅游业发展。空白处前文提示要谨慎对待,因此“They can’t let tourism grow without any control.”(他们不能任由旅游业无节制地发展)衔接上下文最合适。
D
①The UK’s Met Office says extreme (极端的) weather is becoming common because climate change is making temperature rise.
②The Met Office is the UK’s weather service. It just released (发布) a climate report. The report says 2024 was the fourth warmest year in the UK since 1884. Recently, many parts of the UK had the third heatwave of this year.
③The Met Office also says heavy rain is becoming more common when temperature rises. Warm air can hold more water. Last September, some areas in central England had very heavy rain. A weather station at the University of Oxford recorded its wettest month since 1774.
④Studies show human daily activities cause climate change. For example, cars and planes burn fossil fuels (化石燃料) and produce greenhouse gases. These gases trap heat in the air and make temperature rise.
⑤Is climate change the only reason? Of course not. Natural events also cause extreme weather. El Niño events (厄尔尼诺事件) in the Pacific Ocean are one example. These events happen when the ocean surface becomes unusually warm. This warmth changes global weather patterns. For the UK, it can bring hotter or wetter weather, making heatwaves and heavy rain worse.
⑥Professor Liz Bentley is the head of the Royal Meteorological Society. This group helps people learn more about weather and climate. She says the UK Climate report is not only a record of changes, but also a call for action.
⑦People around the world are trying to stop climate change. Most countries agreed to the Paris Agreement made in 2015. It promises to slow global warming by cutting greenhouse gases.
37.What can we learn about the weather in the UK from the Met Office report?
A.Extreme rainfall only happens in central England. B.Last September was the wettest month since 1774.
C.2024 was the fourth warmest year in the UK since 1884. D.The northern part of the UK is drier than its central part.
38.Which sentence uses “global” with the same meaning as the underlined word?
global/ˈɡləʊbəl/ adj. ①全球的 ②全面的 ③总体而言,整体的
A.We need a global view of the problem. B.The teacher gave us a global summary of the history lesson.
C.English is a global language. D.We must consider the global of the plan.
39.What is the purpose of the UK Climate report according to Liz Bentley?
A.To record the weather changes in the UK. B.To show people how the weather changes.
C.To explain the reasons why climate change happens. D.To call on people to take actions against climate change.
40.Which of the following shows the best structure for this passage?
A. B.
C. D.
【答案】37.C 38.C 39.D 40.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要围绕英国气象局发布的气候报告展开,介绍了英国极端天气(高温、暴雨)增多的现象,分析了气候变化的人为与自然成因,并提及了全球应对气候变化的行动。
37.根据文章第②段内容“The report says 2024 was the fourth warmest year in the UK since 1884.”,可直接得出选项C正确
38.文中划线词“global”修饰“weather patterns”,意为“全球的”。选项C“English is a global language.”中“global”同样表示“全球的”,与原文用法一致。
39.根据文章第⑥段内容“She says the UK Climate report is not only a record of changes, but also a call for action.”,结合上下文语境,此处的“action”指代应对气候变化的行动,因此该报告的目的是呼吁人们采取行动应对气候变化,选项D正确。
40.阅读全文可知,第①②③段介绍英国极端天气现象及其记录情况;第④⑤段分析极端天气的成因,包括人类活动和自然事件;第⑥⑦段总结报告目的并呼吁全球行动。故选B。

阅读短文,从短文后A至F六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
A sea turtle swims through the water and sees a white object near the surface. Then the turtle eats it for dinner. But it’s a plastic bag that could make the sea turtle sick. Over 700 kinds of sea animals have eaten or been caught in plastic. Scientists think that plastic waste in the ocean will continue to increase. 41
What’s the problem with plastic?
First, we should know not all plastic is bad. 42 For example, we sometimes use plastic bottles and straws (吸管) to drink water.
The problem is that some people throw plastic objects everywhere, like plastic bags, bottles and straws. This kind of plastic is called single-use plastic. 43
Where does the plastic go?
According to scientists, tons of plastic go into the ocean every year. Plastic waste on the ground is often blown into rivers, and finally ends up in the ocean. 44 As a result, it stays in the ocean. That means useless fishing nets and plastic rings can catch animals; harmful straws and plastic bags can be eaten as food.
What can we do about it?
45 We can record the use of plastic products in our family for a week. Then we can talk about what we can do to use less. By working together, we can help save animals and the ocean they live in.
A.It can’t be broken down in nature.
B.Then these objects become plastic waste.
C.Many sea animals mistake plastic for food.
D.We need some plastic objects in our daily lives.
E.Small actions make a great difference to sea animals.
F.By understanding the situation, we can help stop that from happening.
【答案】41.F 42.D 43.B 44.A 45.E
【导语】本文围绕海洋塑料污染问题展开,介绍了塑料对海洋生物的危害、塑料污染的成因、塑料垃圾的去向,并提出了应对措施。
41.前文提到海洋塑料垃圾会持续增加,后文开始分板块介绍塑料污染的相关内容。F选项“By understanding the situation, we can help stop that from happening.”起到承上启下的作用,引出下文对塑料污染的介绍与应对。
42.前文提到并非所有塑料都是有害的,后文举例说明日常生活中使用塑料瓶、塑料吸管喝水的场景。D选项“We need some plastic objects in our daily lives.”点明了我们在日常生活中确实需要一些塑料制品,与上下文逻辑连贯。
43.前文提到一次性塑料,后文介绍塑料垃圾如何进入海洋。B选项“Then these objects become plastic waste.”承接前文,说明这些被随意丢弃的一次性塑料最终会变成塑料垃圾,为下文介绍塑料垃圾的去向做铺垫。
44.前文提到塑料垃圾会进入海洋,后文说明这些垃圾会留在海洋中,危害海洋生物。A选项“It can’t be broken down in nature.”解释了塑料垃圾会长期留在海洋中的原因,即塑料无法在自然中被分解,与上下文逻辑一致。
45.后文介绍了减少塑料使用的具体做法,如记录家庭塑料产品的使用情况、讨论减少使用的方法等。E选项“Small actions make a great difference to sea animals.”点明了本段的核心,即小小的行动也能对海洋生物产生很大的影响,引出下文的具体措施。
四、词语运用(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
A)
从方框中选择适当的短语并用其正确的形式填空(每词限用一次)。
separate ... into; run out; punish; success; make a difference to

47.Waste should different groups for better recycling.
48.Good habits of protecting the environment can our future life greatly.
49.Anyone who litters everywhere by the police in many cities.
50.Shenzhou-21 manned spaceship was sent up on October 31, 2025.
【答案】46.run out 47.be separated into 48.make a difference to 49.will be punished 50.successfully
【详解】46.句意:如果我们继续浪费自然资源,总有一天它们会耗尽。根据句意及从句"If we keep wasting natural resources"可知,主句表示将来后果,will后接动词原形,短语run out意为“用完,耗尽”,符合语境。
47.句意:为了更好地回收,废物应该被分成不同的类别。主语Waste与动词separate之间是被动关系,且情态动词should后接动词原形,故用被动语态should be done结构,填be separated into。
48.句意为:保护环境的好习惯能对我们的未来生活产生巨大影响。情态动词can后接动词原形,短语make a difference to意为“对……产生影响/起作用”,符合句意。
49.句意:在许多城市,任何随地乱扔垃圾的人都将被警察惩罚。主语Anyone与punish之间是被动关系,且此处表示违反规定后的后果,常用一般将来时的被动语态,故填will be punished。
50.句意:神舟二十一号载人飞船于2025年10月31日成功发射。此处修饰动词短语sent up,需用副词形式。success是名词,其副词形式为successfully,意为“成功地”。
B)

In 1962, the Chinese government decided to change this. A group of foresters (护林人) came to Saihanba. Life was very hard there. The temperature could fall to -40°C in winter.

①The UK’s Met Office says extreme (极端的) weather is becoming common because climate change is making temperature rise.
②The Met Office is the UK’s weather service. It just released (发布) a climate report. The report says 2024 was the fourth warmest year in the UK since 1884. Recently, many parts of the UK had the third heatwave of this year.
③The Met Office also says heavy rain is becoming more common when temperature rises. Warm air can hold more water. Last September, some areas in central England had very heavy rain. A weather station at the University of Oxford recorded its wettest month since 1774.
④Studies show human daily activities cause climate change. For example, cars and planes burn fossil fuels (化石燃料) and produce greenhouse gases. These gases trap heat in the air and make temperature rise.
⑤Is climate change the only reason? Of course not. Natural events also cause extreme weather. El Niño events (厄尔尼诺事件) in the Pacific Ocean are one example. These events happen when the ocean surface becomes unusually warm. This warmth changes global weather patterns. For the UK, it can bring hotter or wetter weather, making heatwaves and heavy rain worse.
⑥Professor Liz Bentley is the head of the Royal Meteorological Society. This group helps people learn more about weather and climate. She says the UK Climate report is not only a record of changes, but also a call for action.
⑦People around the world are trying to stop climate change. Most countries agreed to the Paris Agreement made in 2015. It promises to slow global warming by cutting greenhouse gases.
37.What can we learn about the weather in the UK from the Met Office report?
A.Extreme rainfall only happens in central England. B.Last September was the wettest month since 1774.
C.2024 was the fourth warmest year in the UK since 1884. D.The northern part of the UK is drier than its central part.

global/ˈɡləʊbəl/ adj. ①全球的 ②全面的 ③总体而言,整体的
A.We need a global view of the problem. B.The teacher gave us a global summary of the history lesson.
C.English is a global language. D.We must consider the global of the plan.
39.What is the purpose of the UK Climate report according to Liz Bentley?
A.To record the weather changes in the UK. B.To show people how the weather changes.
C.To explain the reasons why climate change happens. D.To call on people to take actions against climate change.

A sea turtle swims through the water and sees a white object near the surface. Then the turtle eats it for dinner. But it’s a plastic bag that could make the sea turtle sick. Over 700 kinds of sea animals have eaten or been caught in plastic. Scientists think that plastic waste in the ocean will continue to increase. 41
What’s the problem with plastic?
First, we should know not all plastic is bad. 42 For example, we sometimes use plastic bottles and straws (吸管) to drink water.
The problem is that some people throw plastic objects everywhere, like plastic bags, bottles and straws. This kind of plastic is called single-use plastic. 43
Where does the plastic go?
According to scientists, tons of plastic go into the ocean every year. Plastic waste on the ground is often blown into rivers, and finally ends up in the ocean. 44 As a result, it stays in the ocean. That means useless fishing nets and plastic rings can catch animals; harmful straws and plastic bags can be eaten as food.
What can we do about it?
45 We can record the use of plastic products in our family for a week. Then we can talk about what we can do to use less. By working together, we can help save animals and the ocean they live in.
A.It can’t be broken down in nature.
B.Then these objects become plastic waste.
