Following this event, Vihaan and Nav decided to take action to improve their city’s waste collection to ultimately improve their own health and that of their neighbors. Vihaan struggled with a persistent cough and shortness of breath. He knew his symptoms would not likely improve until his local community improved its waste management solutions. In 2018, at ages 14 and 11, respectively, the brothers created a home recycling program called One Step Greener that managed recycling for 15 households within their community. Their goal: prevent toxic chemical waste from seeping (渗透) into the environment and creating dangerous health conditions for residents. At first, the boys felt empowered by taking the action of separating waste into distinct categories. When local officials then informed them that the local garbage collection crew would not pick up their separated bags, they felt momentarily defeated, but persisted in their efforts. The boys then created a neighborhood coalition to create a unified recycling program, which 15 households took part in. Local authorities adjusted their stance, and the recycling program spread throughout the community with a growing number of households starting to participate. “The main issue in waste management is that everybody thinks it’s not their job, or if the waste is out of their house, it’s out of their mind,” Vihaan said. Vihaan and Nav’s program grew from managing 15 households to 3,000 throughout 14 Indian cities. The program offers families involved free door-to-door dry waste pickups. The separated waste is then delivered to warehouses where it is further divided to ensure proper recycling. Newspapers are separated from A4 printing paper, PET plastic from polypropylene, and computer screens from keyboards. One Step Greener’s goal reads, “One Step Greener’s mission is to transform environmental action into everyday practice by mobilizing youth, building green communities, and designing scalable solutions in waste management, afforestation, and education — starting at the grassroots, and growing toward systems change.” “It’s an old saying, but collective effort does actually make a difference,” said Vihaan. 24. What inspired Vihaan and Nav to start One Step Greener? A. The locals’ waste collection failure. B. A project on waste management. C. A landfill collapse near their home. D. The city’s campaign for recycling. 25. What was local authorities’ attitude to the program after the neighborhood’s participation? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Dismissive. D. Approving. 26. What did One Step Greener do for the participating households? A. It picked up dry waste for free. B. It educated them online about recycling. C. It delivered newspapers to them. D. It paid them for their recyclable materials. 27. What does Vihaan and Nav’s program show? A. Better late than never. B. Teamwork makes the dream work. C. Knowledge is power. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了印度兄弟创立环保项目改善垃圾回收。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Near Vihaan and Nav Agarwal’s home, a big garbage dump caved in, releasing poisonous chemicals into the surrounding streets, which caused a fire to erupt. (在维汉和纳夫·阿加瓦尔家附近，一个大垃圾场塌陷了，有毒化学物质泄漏到周围的街道上，引发了一场大火)”和第二段中“Following this event, Vihaan and Nav decided to take action to improve their city’s waste collection(在这一事件之后，维汉和纳夫决定采取行动改善他们城市的废物收集)”可知，激发他们创立项目的原因是家附近的垃圾填埋场坍塌事故。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Local authorities adjusted their stance, and the recycling program spread throughout the community with a growing number of households starting to participate. (当地当局调整了立场，随着越来越多的家庭开始参与，这个回收项目在整个社区推广开来)”可知，在社区参与后，当局调整了立场并支持项目的推广，态度是赞成的。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段中“The program offers families involved free door-to-door dry waste pickups. (该项目为参与的家庭提供免费的干垃圾上门回收服务)”可知，项目为参与的家庭免费回收干垃圾。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“One Step Greener’s goal reads, “One Step Greener’s mission is to transform environmental action into everyday practice by mobilizing youth, building green communities, and designing scalable solutions in waste management, afforestation, and education — starting at the grassroots, and growing toward systems change.”(“一步变绿”的目标宣言写道：“‘一步变绿’的使命是通过动员青年、建设绿色社区以及在废物管理、植树造林和教育领域设计可扩展的解决方案，将环保行动转化为日常实践——从基层做起，逐步推动系统变革。”)”以及最后一段““It’s an old saying, but collective effort does actually make a difference,” said Vihaan.(维汉表示：“这是一句老话，但集体的努力确实能带来改变。”)”可知，这个项目展示了团队协作的力量。 C You spend time with friends, share meals with family, and sit close to people you care about. These moments feel simple, but something deeper may be happening. Your body may be changing with every interaction. Scientists from the University of East Anglia found that social life can shape the bacteria living in your gut (肠道). Many of them help your body work better. Each person has a unique mix. Food and environment affect it, but now scientists see that social interaction also plays a role. To understand this idea, researchers studied the Seychelles warbler, a small bird that lives on a tiny island and rarely leaves it, which makes it ideal for the study in the long run. “We gathered hundreds of stool (粪便) samples from birds with known social roles — breeding pairs, helpers and non-helpers living in the same group, and in different groups. This allowed us to compare the gut bacteria of birds that interacted closely at the nest versus those that did not,” noted Dr. Lee. The results showed a clear pattern. Birds that lived together had more similar gut bacteria than those living apart. Besides, interaction matters even more. Birds that spent more time together had gut bacteria that looked more alike. This means daily contact allows bacteria to pass between individuals. Birds that worked closely together, especially at the nest, shared more of these bacteria. These birds fed chicks, stayed near each other, and interacted often. What does this mean for people? Sharing a home or sitting close creates chances for bacteria to move between people. “Whether you’re living with a partner, housemate, or family, your daily interactions — from hugging and sharing food-prep spaces — may encourage the exchange of gut microbes,” explained Dr. Lee. The idea of sharing bacteria may sound strange at first, but not all bacteria are harmful. In fact, many of them help the body function better. Some aid in digestion, while others protect against disease and keep the body balanced. Because of this, sharing beneficial bacteria may even support better health within a household. This research shows that human connection goes beyond emotions. It also affects the body in hidden ways. 28. Why did researchers choose the Seychelles warblers for their study? A. They have an ideal gut bacteria structure. B. Their social roles are more clearly divided. C. They love living in closely related large groups. D. Their limited migration is perfect for the study. 29. Which influenced the similarity of gut bacteria among birds according to the study? A. Close social interactions. B. The way they fed. C. The type of task they did. D. Different bird species. 30. What does the author try to say in the last two paragraphs? A. Living separately will lead to poor gut health. B. The number of friends affects gut bacteria diversity. C. Human social bonds are an invisible health resource. D. People’s daily habits determine the level of happiness. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Scientists Discovered a New Species of Bacteria B. Close Relationship May Be Changing Your Gut Bacteria C. Sharing Meals Prevents the Spread of Harmful Bacteria D. Human Connections Can Be Developed Through Activities 【答案】28. D 29. A 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了研究发现社交互动会影响肠道菌群的相似性。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“To understand this idea, researchers studied the Seychelles warbler, a small bird that lives on a tiny island and rarely leaves it, which makes it ideal for the study in the long run. (为了验证这一观点，研究人员研究了塞舌尔莺，这是一种生活在小岛上且极少离开的小鸟，从长远来看这使其成为理想的研究对象。)”可知，选择这种鸟是因为它们活动范围受限，便于长期追踪研究。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The results showed a clear pattern. Birds that lived together had more similar gut bacteria than those living apart. Besides, interaction matters even more. Birds that spent more time together had gut bacteria that looked more alike. (结果显示出一个清晰的规律。住在一起的鸟类比分开住的鸟类拥有更相似的肠道菌群。此外，互动的影响更大。花更多时间待在一起的鸟类，其肠道菌群看起来更为相似。)”可知，密切的社会互动影响了鸟类肠道菌群的相似性。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“In fact, many of them help the body function better. Some aid in digestion, while others protect against disease and keep the body balanced. Because of this, sharing beneficial bacteria may even support better health within a household. (事实上，许多细菌有助于身体更好地运作。有些帮助消化，有些则保护身体抵抗疾病并维持平衡。正因为如此，分享有益细菌甚至可能有助于改善整个家庭的健康状况。)”和最后一段“This research shows that human connection goes beyond emotions. It also affects the body in hidden ways. (这项研究表明，人与人之间的联系不仅限于情感层面，它还会以隐性的方式影响着我们的身体。)”可知，作者试图说明人际纽带是一种隐形的健康资源。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开篇指出社交生活会影响肠道菌群，接着通过鸟类实验证实了密切的社会互动会导致肠道菌群相似，最后引申到人类身上，说明亲密关系会改变肠道菌群。“Close Relationship May Be Changing Your Gut Bacteria(亲密关系或许正在改变你的肠道菌群)”能概括文章内容，是最佳标题。 D A team led by Min Zhang and Dabao Zhang at the University of California, Irvine’s Joe C. Wen School of Population & Public Health has developed the most comprehensive maps yet of how genes directly influence one another in brain cells affected by Alzheimer’s disease. These maps reveal which genes are actively controlling others across different cell types in the brain. To accomplish this, the researchers created a powerful new AI-based system called SIGNET. Unlike traditional tools that only detect genes that appear to move together, it is designed to uncover true causal (因果的) connections. Using this approach, the team identified important biological pathways that may contribute to memory loss and the gradual breakdown of brain tissue. “Different types of brain cells play distinct roles in Alzheimer’s disease, but how they interact at the molecular level has remained unclear,” said Min Zhang. “Our work provides cell type-specific maps of gene regulation in the Alzheimer’s brain, shifting the field from observing correlations to uncovering the causal mechanisms that actively drive disease progression.” To build these exhaustive maps, the team analyzed single-cell molecular data from brain samples donated by 272 participants. SIGNET was designed as a scalable, high-performance computing system that combines single-cell RNA sequencing (测序) with whole-genome sequencing data. Using this method, they constructed causal gene regulatory networks for six major brain cell types. This made it possible to determine which genes are likely directing the activity of others, something conventional correlation-based methods cannot reliably complete. “Our approach takes advantage of information encoded (编码) in DNA to enable the identification of true causal relationships between genes in the brain,” said Dabao Zhang, co-corresponding author and professor of epidemiology. The researchers found that the most significant gene disturbances occur in excitatory neurons — the nerve cells that send activating signals — where nearly 6,000 cause-and-effect interactions revealed extensive genetic rewiring as Alzheimer’s progresses. The team also identified hundreds of “hub genes” that function as central regulators, influencing many other genes and likely playing an important role in harmful changes in the brain. These hub genes could become valuable targets for earlier diagnosis and future treatment. 32. What is the key advantage of SIGNET compared to traditional methods? A. It focuses on identifying moving genes. B. It can analyze data from lots of brain samples. C. It can reveal true cause-and-effect gene relationships. D. It tells RNA sequencing from whole-genome sequencing. 33. What does the underlined word “exhaustive” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Detailed. B. Rough. C. Scientific. D. Official. 34. How did the researchers find true causal relationships between brain genes? A. By using a traditional computer system. B. By employing DNA-encoded data. C. By detecting six major brain cell types. D. By interpreting nerve cells signals. 35. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. Principles of gene function. B. The severity of the brain diseases. C. The role of gene changes. D. Potential application of the “hub genes”. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了科研团队研发AI系统揭示阿尔茨海默病基因调控因果机制。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Unlike traditional tools that only detect genes that appear to move together, it is designed to uncover true causal (因果的) connections. (与传统工具仅能检测看似同步活动的基因不同，该系统旨在揭示真实的因果关系)”可知，SIGNET的关键优势在于能揭示基因间真正的因果联系。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“the team analyzed single-cell molecular data from brain samples donated by 272 participants (研究团队分析了来自272名参与者捐赠的大脑样本的单细胞分子数据)”以及第五段中“they constructed causal gene regulatory networks for six major brain cell types (他们构建了涵盖六种主要脑细胞类型的因果基因调控网络)”可知，这些地图是基于大量数据构建的，非常详尽的。由此可知，exhaustive意为“详尽的，彻底的”，与“detailed”意思一致。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中“Our approach takes advantage of information encoded (编码) in DNA to enable the identification of true causal relationships between genes in the brain (我们的方法利用了DNA中编码的信息，从而能够识别大脑中基因之间的真实因果关系)”可知，研究人员是通过利用DNA编码的信息来找到大脑基因之间真正的因果关系的。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“These hub genes could become valuable targets for earlier diagnosis and future treatment. (这些枢纽基因可能成为早期诊断和未来治疗的重要靶点)”可知，最后一段主要介绍了“枢纽基因”在未来医学上的潜在应用价值。 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。 A lot of people tend to focus on how many hours of sleep they’re getting but ignore the quality of their sleep, which can be even more important than sleep time. “____36____. They affect both the type of sleep and the quality of sleep that we’re getting. They are our sleep pressure and circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythms,” said Cunningham, an assistant professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School. Sleep pressure builds up the longer you’re awake and decreases while you’re asleep. ____37____. To get a good night’s worth of sleep, you just get into bed when you’ve built up a lot of sleep pressure. Your circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock. ____38____. Although the pattern that your body follows is guided by your brain, external factors, such as light, can affect your circadian rhythm. For higher sleep quality, sleep pressure and your circadian rhythm should be working together. ____39____. This disturbance ultimately lowers your sleep quality. “One way to improve sleep quality is to wake up at the same time every day, as it can be a little bit more impactful than going to bed at the same time every day. ____40____,” Cunningham said. Once you have a general sleep schedule or routine, then your body will naturally start to seek out its optimal sleep time. A. Don’t let the term fool you, though B. Two distinct things in our body govern our sleep C. It’s better to engage in some low-arousing activities D. You’re concerned about the amount of sleep you’re getting E. An irregular sleep schedule or sudden changes can disrupt your sleep F. Forcing yourself to go to bed when you aren’t yet sleepy isn’t always a good idea G. It’s what causes you to start feeling tired after being awake for an extended period 【答案】36. B 37. G 38. A 39. E 40. F 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍影响睡眠质量的两大身体因素，解释其运作原理，并给出改善睡眠质量的有效方法。 【36题详解】 下文“They affect both the type of sleep and the quality of sleep that we’re getting. They are our sleep pressure and circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythms(它们既影响我们的睡眠类型，也影响睡眠质量。它们就是我们的睡眠压力和昼夜节律)”出现代词They，并具体介绍两种影响睡眠的因素，B选项“Two distinct things in our body govern our sleep(我们体内有两种不同的机制支配着我们的睡眠)”引出下文的两种睡眠影响因素，代词对应。 【37题详解】 上文“Sleep pressure builds up the longer you’re awake and decreases while you’re asleep.(你清醒的时间越长，睡眠压力就越大，睡眠时睡眠压力就会降低)”介绍了睡眠压力的基本原理，G选项“It’s what causes you to start feeling tired after being awake for an extended period(这就是你长时间保持清醒后会感到疲惫的原因)”承接上文，进一步解释睡眠压力带来的身体表现。 【38题详解】 上文“Your circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock.(你的昼夜节律是你身体的内部时钟)”引出昼夜节律的定义，下文“Although the pattern that your body follows is guided by your brain, external factors, such as light, can affect your circadian rhythm.(虽然身体遵循的作息模式由大脑主导，但光线等外界因素会影响你的昼夜节律)”介绍昼夜节律的影响因素，A选项“Don’t let the term fool you, though(不过，不要被这个术语误导)”过渡自然，引出昼夜节律并非完全固定、会受外界影响的特点，衔接上下文。 【39题详解】 下文“This disturbance ultimately lowers your sleep quality(这种紊乱最终会降低你的睡眠质量)”出现指代紊乱的关键词，E选项“An irregular sleep schedule or sudden changes can disrupt your sleep(不规律的作息或突发变化会扰乱你的睡眠)”介绍造成睡眠紊乱的情况，与下文disturbance对应，逻辑通顺。 【40题详解】 上文“One way to improve sleep quality is to wake up at the same time every day, as it can be a little bit more impactful than going to bed at the same time every day.(改善睡眠质量的一个方法是每天同一时间起床，这比每天同一时间睡觉效果更好)”介绍改善睡眠的方法，F选项“Forcing yourself to go to bed when you aren’t yet sleepy isn’t always a good idea(在不困的时候强迫自己睡觉并非总是好事)”承接上文，补充说明睡眠的正确方式，贴合专家观点。 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。 I was in the fourth year of my Ph.

One of his regular clients was a businessman who hired him as a personal driver during work trips. As they got to know each other better over time, their conversations naturally extended beyond work to personal matters like family and children. The businessman learned that Cuenca’s family was not well-off and had two children in school, so he always gave the father some extra cash at the end of each ride. At that time, Cuenca was in her first year of college and was applying as a transfer student to Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service, which she had wanted to attend since high school. But finances were tight for Cuenca and her family, and she wasn’t sure how she was going to cover the $ 50 required for the application fee. “Fifty dollars was a lot of money for a college student back in 1997. And unfortunately, at that point, we really couldn’t afford the money. My wife and I were both from working-class backgrounds,” Cuenca’s father said. During a routine drive, Cuenca’s father received a call from her. She told him she had decided to give up on the application, urging him not to worry about the money anymore. Cuenca’s father then drove silently, replaying his daughter’s words in his mind. The businessman noticed his distress (忧虑) and pressed him until he finally told the story. The businessman listened quietly, leaning back in his seat, his expression softening. “Your daughter sounds like someone who works hard for what she wants,” he said quietly. When the ride ended, the businessman gave him the extra cash as usual, but it was much more — a $ 50 bill. 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。 Meanwhile, he said something that Cuenca’s father would never forget. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Cuenca used the businessman’s gift to submit her application that night. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Meanwhile, he said something that Cuenca’s father would never forget. “It is a gift for your daughter. Tell her that sometimes the world meets her halfway when she dares to walk toward her dream. Someday, when she’s able, I hope she’ll pay it forward. Let this be her first step to Georgetown.” Cuenca’s father drove home with the bill, a tangible warmth replacing the earlier worry. When he told Cuenca what had happened, tears welled up in her eyes. Her long-held dream was about to come true. Cuenca used the businessman’s gift to submit her application that night. What followed were weeks of anxious waiting. Then, on the day when the thick acceptance letter from Georgetown arrived, Cuenca felt a surge of overwhelming gratitude toward the stranger whose generosity had made it possible. Thinking of the businessman’s gift and words, she made a promise to herself silently, “I’ll help someone the way he helped me.” The businessman’s gesture had ignited not just a dream, but also a lifelong commitment to paying kindness forward. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。Cuenca的父亲在迈阿密开出租车，一位商人常雇他当私人司机，常多给车费。Cuenca想转学至乔治城大学却交不起50美元申请费，决定放弃。父亲驾车时接到女儿电话，商人得知后默默多给了一张50美元。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首可知，第一段可以描写陌生商人赠予费用并留下寄语，Cuenca的父亲满心温暖，她得知此事后激动落泪，梦想迎来转机。 ②由第二段句首可知，第二段可以描写Cuenca当晚提交申请，经历漫长等待后收到录取通知书，她心怀感恩并暗下决心传递善意，这份善举也让她立下终身践行善意的信念。 2.续写线索：陌生寄语 —— 父女二人深受触动 —— 提交大学申请并忐忑等待 —— 收到录取通知书满怀感激 —— 暗自承诺传递善意 —— 善意点亮梦想并传承大爱 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①讲述，告知：tell/inform ②许诺：make a promise/pledge 情绪类 ①担忧：worry/anxiety/concern ②焦急的：anxious/nervous/worried 【点睛】【高分句型1】Tell her that sometimes the world meets her halfway when she dares to walk toward her dream.

The school has grown as the local population has increased, so the canteen is always very busy throughout the lunch period. There's only one serving point, so most pupils have to wait a considerable time to be served. Now we've had a new food hall built, which will come into use next week. You may be wondering what will happen to the old canteen. We'll still have tables and chairs in there, and pupils can eat food from the food hall or lunch they've brought from home. Eventually we may use part of the canteen for stories, but first we'll see how many pupils go in there at lunch time. Okay, let's take a break. And then i'll talk more about our school.

There's only one serving point, so most pupils have to wait a considerable time to be served. Now we've had a new food hall built, which will come into you next week. You may be wondering what will happen to the old canteen. We'll still have tables and chairs in there, and pupils can eat food from the fall hall or lunch they've brought from home. Eventually we may use part of the canteen for storage, but first we'll see how many pupils go in there at lunch time. Okay, let's take a break and then i'll talk more about our school. 第二节到此结束，现在你有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。听力部分到此结束。 省十教育2026届高三最后一卷 英语 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0.5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段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the woman want to do?

B Near Vihaan and Nav Agarwal’s home, a big garbage dump (垃圾场) caved in, releasing poisonous chemicals into the surrounding streets, which caused a fire to erupt. Following this event, Vihaan and Nav decided to take action to improve their city’s waste collection to ultimately improve their own health and that of their neighbors. Vihaan struggled with a persistent cough and shortness of breath. He knew his symptoms would not likely improve until his local community improved its waste management solutions. In 2018, at ages 14 and 11, respectively, the brothers created a home recycling program called One Step Greener that managed recycling for 15 households within their community. Their goal: prevent toxic chemical waste from seeping (渗透) into the environment and creating dangerous health conditions for residents. At first, the boys felt empowered by taking the action of separating waste into distinct categories. When local officials then informed them that the local garbage collection crew would not pick up their separated bags, they felt momentarily defeated, but persisted in their efforts. The boys then created a neighborhood coalition to create a unified recycling program, which 15 households took part in. Local authorities adjusted their stance, and the recycling program spread throughout the community with a growing number of households starting to participate. “The main issue in waste management is that everybody thinks it’s not their job, or if the waste is out of their house, it’s out of their mind,” Vihaan said. Vihaan and Nav’s program grew from managing 15 households to 3,000 throughout 14 Indian cities. The program offers families involved free door-to-door dry waste pickups. The separated waste is then delivered to warehouses where it is further divided to ensure proper recycling. Newspapers are separated from A4 printing paper, PET plastic from polypropylene, and computer screens from keyboards. One Step Greener’s goal reads, “One Step Greener’s mission is to transform environmental action into everyday practice by mobilizing youth, building green communities, and designing scalable solutions in waste management, afforestation, and education — starting at the grassroots, and growing toward systems change.” “It’s an old saying, but collective effort does actually make a difference,” said Vihaan. 24. What inspired Vihaan and Nav to start One Step Greener? A. The locals’ waste collection failure. B. A project on waste management. C. A landfill collapse near their home. D. The city’s campaign for recycling. 25. What was local authorities’ attitude to the program after the neighborhood’s participation? A. Unclear. B. Doubtful. C. Dismissive. D. Approving. 26. What did One Step Greener do for the participating households? A. It picked up dry waste for free. B. It educated them online about recycling. C. It delivered newspapers to them. D. It paid them for their recyclable materials. 27. What does Vihaan and Nav’s program show? A. Better late than never. B. Teamwork makes the dream work. C. Knowledge is power. D. Actions speak louder than words. C You spend time with friends, share meals with family, and sit close to people you care about. These moments feel simple, but something deeper may be happening. Your body may be changing with every interaction. Scientists from the University of East Anglia found that social life can shape the bacteria living in your gut (肠道). Many of them help your body work better. Each person has a unique mix. Food and environment affect it, but now scientists see that social interaction also plays a role. To understand this idea, researchers studied the Seychelles warbler, a small bird that lives on a tiny island and rarely leaves it, which makes it ideal for the study in the long run. “We gathered hundreds of stool (粪便) samples from birds with known social roles — breeding pairs, helpers and non-helpers living in the same group, and in different groups. This allowed us to compare the gut bacteria of birds that interacted closely at the nest versus those that did not,” noted Dr. Lee. The results showed a clear pattern. Birds that lived together had more similar gut bacteria than those living apart. Besides, interaction matters even more. Birds that spent more time together had gut bacteria that looked more alike. This means daily contact allows bacteria to pass between individuals. Birds that worked closely together, especially at the nest, shared more of these bacteria. These birds fed chicks, stayed near each other, and interacted often. What does this mean for people? Sharing a home or sitting close creates chances for bacteria to move between people. “Whether you’re living with a partner, housemate, or family, your daily interactions — from hugging and sharing food-prep spaces — may encourage the exchange of gut microbes,” explained Dr. Lee. The idea of sharing bacteria may sound strange at first, but not all bacteria are harmful. In fact, many of them help the body function better. Some aid in digestion, while others protect against disease and keep the body balanced. Because of this, sharing beneficial bacteria may even support better health within a household. This research shows that human connection goes beyond emotions. It also affects the body in hidden ways. 28. Why did researchers choose the Seychelles warblers for their study? A. They have an ideal gut bacteria structure. B. Their social roles are more clearly divided. C. They love living in closely related large groups. D. Their limited migration is perfect for the study. 29. Which influenced the similarity of gut bacteria among birds according to the study? A. Close social interactions. B. The way they fed. C. The type of task they did. D. Different bird species. 30. What does the author try to say in the last two paragraphs? A. Living separately will lead to poor gut health. B. The number of friends affects gut bacteria diversity. C. Human social bonds are an invisible health resource. D. People’s daily habits determine the level of happiness. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Scientists Discovered a New Species of Bacteria B. Close Relationship May Be Changing Your Gut Bacteria C. Sharing Meals Prevents the Spread of Harmful Bacteria D. Human Connections Can Be Developed Through Activities D A team led by Min Zhang and Dabao Zhang at the University of California, Irvine’s Joe C. Wen School of Population & Public Health has developed the most comprehensive maps yet of how genes directly influence one another in brain cells affected by Alzheimer’s disease. These maps reveal which genes are actively controlling others across different cell types in the brain. To accomplish this, the researchers created a powerful new AI-based system called SIGNET. Unlike traditional tools that only detect genes that appear to move together, it is designed to uncover true causal (因果的) connections. Using this approach, the team identified important biological pathways that may contribute to memory loss and the gradual breakdown of brain tissue. “Different types of brain cells play distinct roles in Alzheimer’s disease, but how they interact at the molecular level has remained unclear,” said Min Zhang. “Our work provides cell type-specific maps of gene regulation in the Alzheimer’s brain, shifting the field from observing correlations to uncovering the causal mechanisms that actively drive disease progression.” To build these exhaustive maps, the team analyzed single-cell molecular data from brain samples donated by 272 participants. SIGNET was designed as a scalable, high-performance computing system that combines single-cell RNA sequencing (测序) with whole-genome sequencing data. Using this method, they constructed causal gene regulatory networks for six major brain cell types. This made it possible to determine which genes are likely directing the activity of others, something conventional correlation-based methods cannot reliably complete. “Our approach takes advantage of information encoded (编码) in DNA to enable the identification of true causal relationships between genes in the brain,” said Dabao Zhang, co-corresponding author and professor of epidemiology. The researchers found that the most significant gene disturbances occur in excitatory neurons — the nerve cells that send activating signals — where nearly 6,000 cause-and-effect interactions revealed extensive genetic rewiring as Alzheimer’s progresses. The team also identified hundreds of “hub genes” that function as central regulators, influencing many other genes and likely playing an important role in harmful changes in the brain. These hub genes could become valuable targets for earlier diagnosis and future treatment. 32. What is the key advantage of SIGNET compared to traditional methods? A. It focuses on identifying moving genes. B. It can analyze data from lots of brain samples. C. It can reveal true cause-and-effect gene relationships. D. It tells RNA sequencing from whole-genome sequencing. 33. What does the underlined word “exhaustive” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Detailed. B. Rough. C. Scientific. D. Official. 34. How did the researchers find true causal relationships between brain genes? A. By using a traditional computer system. B. By employing DNA-encoded data. C. By detecting six major brain cell types. D. By interpreting nerve cells signals. 35. What can we know from the last paragraph? A. Principles of gene function. B. The severity of the brain diseases. C. The role of gene changes. D. Potential application of the “hub genes”. 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。 A lot of people tend to focus on how many hours of sleep they’re getting but ignore the quality of their sleep, which can be even more important than sleep time. “____36____. They affect both the type of sleep and the quality of sleep that we’re getting. They are our sleep pressure and circadian (昼夜节律的) rhythms,” said Cunningham, an assistant professor of psychology at Harvard Medical School. Sleep pressure builds up the longer you’re awake and decreases while you’re asleep. ____37____. To get a good night’s worth of sleep, you just get into bed when you’ve built up a lot of sleep pressure. Your circadian rhythm is your body’s internal clock. ____38____. Although the pattern that your body follows is guided by your brain, external factors, such as light, can affect your circadian rhythm. For higher sleep quality, sleep pressure and your circadian rhythm should be working together. ____39____. This disturbance ultimately lowers your sleep quality. “One way to improve sleep quality is to wake up at the same time every day, as it can be a little bit more impactful than going to bed at the same time every day. ____40____,” Cunningham said. Once you have a general sleep schedule or routine, then your body will naturally start to seek out its optimal sleep time. A. Don’t let the term fool you, though B. Two distinct things in our body govern our sleep C. It’s better to engage in some low-arousing activities D. You’re concerned about the amount of sleep you’re getting E. An irregular sleep schedule or sudden changes can disrupt your sleep F. Forcing yourself to go to bed when you aren’t yet sleepy isn’t always a good idea G.

One of his regular clients was a businessman who hired him as a personal driver during work trips. As they got to know each other better over time, their conversations naturally extended beyond work to personal matters like family and children. The businessman learned that Cuenca’s family was not well-off and had two children in school, so he always gave the father some extra cash at the end of each ride. At that time, Cuenca was in her first year of college and was applying as a transfer student to Georgetown University’s School of Foreign Service, which she had wanted to attend since high school. But finances were tight for Cuenca and her family, and she wasn’t sure how she was going to cover the $ 50 required for the application fee. “Fifty dollars was a lot of money for a college student back in 1997. And unfortunately, at that point, we really couldn’t afford the money. My wife and I were both from working-class backgrounds,” Cuenca’s father said. During a routine drive, Cuenca’s father received a call from her. She told him she had decided to give up on the application, urging him not to worry about the money anymore. Cuenca’s father then drove silently, replaying his daughter’s words in his mind. The businessman noticed his distress (忧虑) and pressed him until he finally told the story. The businessman listened quietly, leaning back in his seat, his expression softening. “Your daughter sounds like someone who works hard for what she wants,” he said quietly. When the ride ended, the businessman gave him the extra cash as usual, but it was much more — a $ 50 bill. 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。 Meanwhile, he said something that Cuenca’s father would never forget. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Cuenca used the businessman’s gift to submit her application that night. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
