C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍的是一个公园护林员实习生志愿者项目。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Dates部分“5/4/2026 - 5/31/2026(2026年5月4日—2026年5月31日)”和Required Days部分“Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday(星期三、星期四、星期五、星期六、星期日)”可知，项目持续四周，每周需要五天，因此总共需要的时间是20天，故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Description部分的The position is in the Division of Interpretation. Duties include:中的“• Presenting river safety talks and providing area information to river users(开展河流安全知识宣讲，并向河流使用者提供区域信息。)”可知，向河流使用者宣传河流安全知识是实习志愿者的职责。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Interns must know how to swim to be considered for this position.(要获得这个职位的资格，实习生必须会游泳。)”可知，申请该职位需要会游泳。故选C。 B There’s a wrapper half-sunk in the mud under the bush. Each time I grab it with my litter-picker, another piece tears off. I persist, until all the pieces are in my bin liner. Then I move on. I’m volunteering with a group at my local park. They perform a range of tasks, but today we’re litter-picking. When our bags are full, we gather for a break, in our yellow vests (马甲). I arrived this morning feeling depressed, but this simple, repetitive and collective act has comforted me and pulled me away from the doom scroll of my mind. It’s easy to assume that the best way to lift your spirits when you’re feeling down is to do something nice for yourself. However, research suggests that altruistic (利他的) acts work better. I did not know this when I signed up with the conservation group. What I did know was that I was feeling deeply upset about the ecological and climate crises. It was the counsellor (咨询师) I was seeing who switched me on to the idea of volunteering. He gave me three rules: make it simple, immediate and cooperative. That’s how, a week later, I found myself in a park fishing old carrier bags out of the river. Psychologists call the mental boost from volunteering the “helper’s high”. And I did feel that lift, which soon led me to sign up to volunteer at other places. Every time I volunteered, I would come home feeling better — lifted by the fresh air, the natural environment and the companion — and, perhaps most of all, by having acted in line with my values. I didn’t mind if the tasks were exhausting or repetitive. I was taking action, learning new skills, and feeling part of something meaningful. That’s not to say I didn’t — and still don’t — sometimes wonder: Are we really making a difference here? But I remind myself of my counsellor’s advice that I should not be discouraged by people saying that my actions were only a drop in the ocean, since an ocean is made up of millions upon millions of drops. While it was my total despair with the environment that led me into volunteering, it’s the goodness and kindness that I’ve witnessed while working alongside my fellow volunteers that have kept me coming. And I think yellow is my color. 4. How did the author feel before litter-picking in the park this morning? A. Relaxed. B. Frustrated. C. Confused. D. Encouraged. 5. What motivated the author to start volunteering? A. His inspiration from a counsellor. B. His litter-picking experience. C. His own confusion about life values. D. His desire to improve cooperative skills. 6. What insight did the author mainly gain from the volunteering? A. Helping others has a positive impact on one’s career. B. People need stronger ties with local communities. C. Climate crisis needs an immediate solution. D. Individual goodness brings about great power. 7. What can be inferred about the author from the last paragraph? A. He values the warmheartedness of local people. B. He believes the color will help him stay positive. C. He feels a stronger connection to the volunteer role. D. He views the color as a warning sign of environment. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了作者因生态和气候问题心情低落，听从咨询师建议参与公园清垃圾志愿活动。助人之举治愈了他，他相信点滴努力终能汇聚力量，也因同伴的善意坚持做志愿。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I arrived this morning feeling depressed, but this simple, repetitive and collective act has comforted me and pulled me away from the doom scroll of my mind.(今天早上我情绪低落，但这项简单、重复且集体的行动让我感到安慰，也让我暂时远离了内心的焦虑与烦恼。)”可知，今天早上作者在公园捡垃圾前的心情是沮丧的。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“It was the counsellor (咨询师) I was seeing who switched me on to the idea of volunteering.(正是那位心理咨询师启发了我参与志愿活动的想法。)”可知，咨询师的建议启发了作者开始做志愿者。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“That’s not to say I didn’t — and still don’t — sometimes wonder: Are we really making a difference here? But I remind myself of my counsellor’s advice that I should not be discouraged by people saying that my actions were only a drop in the ocean, since an ocean is made up of millions upon millions of drops.(但这并不意味着我从未有过疑问——现在依然如此：我们真的在这里产生了影响吗？但我始终提醒自己，不要因为别人说我的行为只是大海中的一滴水而灰心丧气，因为大海由无数无数的水滴组成。)”可推知，作者从志愿服务中主要获得的启示是个人善良能带来巨大的力量。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While it was my total despair with the environment that led me into volunteering, it’s the goodness and kindness that I’ve witnessed while working alongside my fellow volunteers that have kept me coming. And I think yellow is my color.(虽然最初让我投身志愿服务的，是对自己环境问题彻底绝望的心情，但真正让我持续坚持的，是与志愿者们一起工作时所见到的善良与善意。我想，黄色就是我的颜色。)”可知，从最后一段可以推断出作者觉得与志愿者角色之间有更强的联系。 C In 2019, the multimillionaire and explorer Victor Vescovo made headlines when he became the first person to visit the deepest parts of all five of Earth’s oceans. But arguably the real star of the expedition was marine geologist Cassie Bongiovanni, the lead ocean mapper who ensured Vescovo piloted his submersible (潜水器) to the actual deepest depths. Today, only 25 percent of the seafloor is well mapped. “Traditionally, captains never cared about the seafloor as long as it stayed far enough away from the bodies of their ships,” journalist Laura Trethewey writes in The Deepest Map. The book explores humankind’s journey to map the seafloor, framed around Bongiovanni’s adventures. Seafloor landform has been a big concern for companies facilitating intercontinental communication via subsea cables. In recent decades, seafloor data have become crucial to the deep-sea mining industries searching for metals needed to produce green technology. Satellites have revealed many of the knobs and cracks visible in the deep blue of Google Maps. But with that relatively rough information, entire mountains can be missed. To see the seafloor in high resolution requires a precise sonar (声呐) system aboard a big ship that sends sound signals from the sea surface into the deep sea. Mappers like Bongiovanni calculate depth from the time it takes for the signal to travel down and bounce back to the surface. These most-advanced sonar systems transform the satellite-predicted blur (模糊的东西) into a sharp three-dimensional terrain of ripples (海底波纹), cracks and tears in the seafloor. “The seafloor is ‘heard’, rather than seen,” Trethewey writes. Trethewey’s insightful writing helps readers understand just why mapping the ocean — even in shallow coastal waters — is crucial to so many endeavors. Trethewey’s book is about more than just mapping the oceans. It’s also about what can go wrong when explorers explore. It’s hard to read The Deepest Map without being reminded of the recent inner explosion of the Titan submersible in the North Atlantic killing everyone on board in June, 2023. She also reminds us how easily exploration can turn into exploitation (勘探). In the not-so-distant past, Europeans “discovered” the so-called New World and mapped it, Trethewey writes. Exploitation followed. Scientists and environmentalists alike are now concerned that a full, detailed map of the ocean floor might lead to the destruction of the delicate, mostly unknown habitats if deep-sea miners are allowed to obtain metals. 8. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. The seafloor mapping work still has a long way to go. B. Vescovo’s expedition failed without Bongiovanni’s help. C. Bongiovanni is the most famous marine geologist in the world. D. The Deepest Map mainly records Vescovo’s exploration stories. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A. Seafloor data are vital to green-tech related industries. B. Subsea cables rely much on the mapping of the seafloor. C. Satellites fail to observe mountains under the deep ocean. D. Sonar systems help get high-precision seafloor landform. 10. Why does the author mention the accident in 2023? A. To remind the readers of the past events. B. To show the bad effect of human activities. C. To recommend the readers to read the book. D. To highlight the practical significance and value of this book. 11. What is the scientists’ attitude towards mapping the ocean floor? A. Favorable. B. Indifferent. C. Cautious. D. Tolerant. 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了海洋地质学家Cassie Bongiovanni在海底测绘中的贡献，以及海底测绘对跨大陆通信、深海采矿等行业的重要性。文章还探讨了详细的海底地图可能带来的环境问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Today, only 25 percent of the seafloor is well mapped.(如今，只有25%的海底被很好地绘制出来)”可知，海底测绘工作仍有很长的路要走。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“To see the seafloor in high resolution requires a precise sonar (声呐) system aboard a big ship that sends sound signals from the sea surface into the deep sea. Mappers like Bongiovanni calculate depth from the time it takes for the signal to travel down and bounce back to the surface. These most-advanced sonar systems transform the satellite-predicted blur (模糊的东西) into a sharp three-dimensional terrain of ripples (海底波纹), cracks and tears in the seafloor. “The seafloor is ‘heard’, rather than seen,” Trethewey writes.(要获得高分辨率的海底图像，需要大型船只搭载精密的声呐系统，该系统从海面发射声波信号至深海。像邦乔瓦尼这样的制图师会根据信号下潜并反弹回海面所需的时间来计算深度。这些最先进的声呐系统将卫星预测出的模糊影像，转化为清晰呈现海底波纹、裂缝与断裂带的三维地形图。“海底是被‘听’见的，而非看见的，”特雷瑟韦写道)”可知，本段主要聚焦于声呐系统如何帮助获取高精度的海底地貌。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“It’s also about what can go wrong when explorers explore. It’s hard to read The Deepest Map without being reminded of the recent inner explosion of the Titan submersible in the North Atlantic killing everyone on board in June, 2023.(它也讲述了探险过程中可能出错的种种。读着《最深处的地图》，很难不让人联想到2023年6月泰坦号潜水器在北大西洋发生内爆、致全员遇难的近期事故)”可知，作者提及2023年的事故是为了强调该书内容的现实意义和价值，即提醒人们关注探险中的风险。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Scientists and environmentalists alike are now concerned that a full, detailed map of the ocean floor might lead to the destruction of the delicate, mostly unknown habitats if deep-sea miners are allowed to obtain metals.(科学家和环保人士都担心，如果允许深海开采者获取金属，一张完整、详细的海底地图可能会导致这些脆弱且大部分尚不为人知的栖息地遭到破坏)”可知，科学家们对海底测绘持谨慎态度。 D Is a teenage boy more likely to grow up working with children as a teacher or with engines as a mechanic? Smart money bets on the latter, and that would still hold true even if you switch up the country or decade throughout the 20th century. But why? What are the factors that contribute to this seemingly stereotypical outcome? You might think that social forces — discrimination, gender roles, etc. significantly shape these outcomes, but research shows that men and women’s occupational pursuits and interests have not changed much over the past century, even as societal norms decidedly have. Boys and girls tend to pursue jobs dealing with things and people respectively. And, perhaps counter-intuitively (与直觉相反), this preference for sex-typical jobs tends to increase when their country offers more economic and political empowerment for women — a phenomenon called the “gender-equality paradox (悖论)”. A recent study noted that with fewer economic worries, greater national wealth might enable more students to pursue jobs to which they are naturally drawn. “Individual students in wealthy nations with strong social safety nets might choose more in accordance with biologically influenced occupational interests than in accordance with political ideals,” the study stated. Social factors may indeed play a role in determining which jobs young men and women are interested in, but biology seems to be a considerable force driving these outcomes. From a policy perspective, that means that interventions designed to bring more women into fields like STEM might need to be readjusted. From my perspective, it is worth considering whether such interventions are appropriate in the first place. After all, if we want greater national wealth and gender equality, and these two things seem to push people towards sex-typical jobs, then why not let the chips fall where they may? Moreover, what might be good for organizations and businesses is not always the same as what is good for individuals. 12. What does the underlined word “stereotypical” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Appealing. B. Influential. C. Productive. D. Unchanged. 13. What leads the phenomenon of “gender-equality paradox” to occur? A. Girls’ observing the societal norms all the time. B. Boys’ constant pursuing careers to do with people. C. Women’s gaining more economic and political support. D. Men’s having less access to sex-typical occupations nowadays. 14. What is most likely to determine individuals’ occupational interest? A. Political ideals. B. Biological factors. C. Social safety nets. D. Readjusted interventions. 15. Which of the following does the author probably agree with? A. Individuals should pursue their favored jobs despite the intervention. B. Gender equality is having a greater impact on sex-typical occupations. C. Organizations and businesses have benefited greatly from economic growth. D. More proper policies should be made to intervene in women’s career options. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要探讨性别职业偏好成因，解读性别平等悖论并发表相关看法。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Is a teenage boy more likely to grow up working with children as a teacher or with engines as a mechanic? Smart money bets on the latter, and that would still hold true even if you switch up the country or decade throughout the 20th century. But why? What are the factors that contribute to this seemingly stereotypical outcome?(一个十几岁的男孩长大后，是更可能成为一名与孩子们打交道的老师，还是与引擎打交道的机械师？理性判断会倾向于后者，而且即使你更换国家或回溯到20世纪的不同年代，这一结论依然成立。但这是为什么呢？是什么因素导致了这种看似stereotypical结果？)”可知，这一结论看似一成不变，stereotypical意思是“一成不变的”。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“And, perhaps counter-intuitively (与直觉相反), this preference for sex-typical jobs tends to increase when their country offers more economic and political empowerment for women — a phenomenon called the “gender-equality paradox (悖论)”.(或许与直觉相悖，当国家给予女性更多经济和政治权力时，人们对符合性别固有印象的职业偏好会加剧，这一现象被称作“性别平等悖论”。)”可知，女性获得更多经济与政治支持引发了该悖论。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Social factors may indeed play a role in determining which jobs young men and women are interested in, but biology seems to be a considerable force driving these outcomes.(社会因素确实会影响年轻人的职业兴趣，但生理因素似乎是造成这一结果的重要原因。)”可知，生理因素最能决定个人职业兴趣。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“After all, if we want greater national wealth and gender equality, and these two things seem to push people towards sex-typical jobs, then why not let the chips fall where they may?(毕竟，如果国家富裕和性别平等会让人们选择贴合性别特质的工作，那为何不顺其自然呢？)”可知，作者认为人们应遵从内心选择心仪工作，不必受干预束缚。 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。 How to find your dream career?

His nonprofit organization, The Ocean Cleanup, is already using technology designed to stop waste before it reaches the sea. The approach focuses ____37____ rivers, where much of the world’s ocean plastic originates. Floating ____38____ (barrier) trap broken pieces as they flow downstream, while autonomous interceptor boats (拦截船) equipped with conveyor belts collect the waste ____39____ send it for recycling or disposal. According to Slat, targeting just 30 cities could prevent around a third of the plastic currently entering the oceans. He claims that the Motagua River in Guatemala sends ____40____ (much) plastic into the sea than all 38 members of the OECD (经合组织). His team aims to tackle the hot spots by 2030. The longer-term goal is to stop 90% of floating plastic pollution ____41____ (reach) the sea by 2040, while also clearing existing accumulation (积聚) zones. Slat left his aerospace (航天航空) engineering studies ____42____ (pursue) the idea over a decade ago. Since then, the organization has removed nearly 50m kilograms of plastic waste from rivers and oceans around the world already. “The world needs a success story. There is lots of ____43____ (pessimistic) among people of my generation,” Slat said. “But if we can say, ‘There was a time ____44____ the oceans were filled with plastic and that two thirds of the planet _____45_____ (be) polluted, and then we solved it.’ — I think that will be a case of inspiring action.” 【答案】36. significantly 37. on 38. barriers 39. and 40. more 41. reaching 42. to pursue 43. pessimism 44. when 45. was 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了荷兰发明家博扬・斯拉特的机构借助设备从河流拦截塑料，避免其流入海洋。该组织已清理大量塑料并制定治污目标，他希望这份成果能激励人们共同治理海洋塑料污染。 【36题详解】 考查副词。句意：荷兰发明家博扬·斯拉特认为，全球海洋塑料危机在未来15年内有望大幅缓解。副词修饰动词reduced，表示“显著地减少”，形容词significant变为副词significantly。 【37题详解】 考查固定短语。句意：该方法主要针对河流，因为世界上大部分海洋塑料的来源正是这些河流。此处为固定搭配focus on，意为“专注于；聚焦于”，符合语境。 【38题详解】 考查名词复数形式。句意：漂浮式屏障在垃圾随水流向下流动时将其截留，而配备传送带的自主拦截船则负责收集这些废弃物，并送往回收或处理。可数名词barrier表示“屏障”，此处泛指多个漂浮屏障，且谓语动词trap为原形，故用复数形式barriers作主语。 【39题详解】 考查连词。句意：漂浮式屏障在垃圾随水流向下流动时将其截留，而配备传送带的自主拦截船则负责收集这些废弃物，并送往回收或处理。根据句意可知，此处为并列连词and连接两个连续的动作collect和send。 【40题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：他指出，危地马拉的莫塔瓜河向海洋排放的塑料量，超过了整个经合组织（OECD）38个成员国的总和。由后面的比较级标志词 than可知，此处用much的比较级more。 【41题详解】 考查动名词。句意：长期目标是到2040年，阻止90%的漂浮塑料污染进入海洋，同时清除现有的污染聚集区。此处为固定结构 stop...(from) doing sth.，意为“阻止……做某事”，介词from可省略，所以为动名词形式。 【42题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：斯拉特十多年前放弃航空航天工程专业，投身这一事业。根据句意可知，此处为动词不定式to pursue作目的状语，表示“为了追求这个想法而放弃了学业”。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：“我们这一代人中有很多悲观情绪，”斯拉特说。lots of 后接名词，形容词 pessimistic 的名词形式是pessimism（悲观情绪），为不可数名词。 【44题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：“但如果我们可以这样说：‘曾有一段时间，海洋被塑料充斥，地球的三分之二都受到污染，然后我们解决了这个问题。’——我认为这将是一个激励人们采取行动的例子。”分析句子可知，设空处引导定语从句，先行词 a time在从句中作时间状语，故用关系副词when引导。 【45题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：“但如果我们可以这样说：‘曾有一段时间，海洋被塑料充斥，地球的三分之二都受到污染，然后我们解决了这个问题。’——我认为这将是一个激励人们采取行动的例子。”分数作主语时，谓语动词单复数由 of 后的名词决定。此处the planet 为单数，且描述过去的状态，故用was。 第三节 单句单词填空（共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分） 请根据下列句中的汉语提示写出单词的正确形式或用括号内单词的适当形式填空。 46.

Every winter, she would knit a thick scarf (围巾) for me, with soft wool and neat stitches (缝合) that wrapped around my neck like her gentle hug. But when I entered senior high school, I thought her scarves were outdated and boring. I started hiding them in the corner of my closet, never wearing them, even on the coldest days. I even lied to her, saying, “Grandma, the scarves are too warm. I don’t need them any more.” Grandma’s eyes became less bright when she heard that, but she never complained. She just smiled and said with concern, “It’s okay, dear. As long as you’re warm.” From then on, she stopped knitting scarves for me. Instead, she spent every afternoon sitting by the window, holding her old knitting needles, staring at the empty yarn (纱线) basket, lost in deep thought. I felt a little guilty, but I never apologized — pride prevented me from admitting that I was wrong. One day, I came home late from school, feeling tired and cold. I accidentally knocked over the closet, and all my clothes fell out, including the hidden scarves. Among them, I found a new scarf, half-knit, with my favorite blue wool. Beside it was a small note, written in Grandma’s shaky handwriting, “For my dear grandchild, I know you don’t like the old scarves, so I tried a new color. I hope it can keep you warm this winter.” Tears filled my eyes instantly. I rushed to Grandma’s room, only to find her lying in bed, weak and pale. My mom told me that Grandma had been badly ill for a month, but she insisted on knitting the scarf for me, saying it was her last wish to ensure I stayed warm. She was too weak to finish it, but she never quit trying. I held the half-knit scarf tightly, feeling the warmth of the wool and the deep love hidden in every stitch. 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。 I put on the half-knit scarf immediately, even though it was not finished. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, Grandma passed away. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I put on the half-knit scarf immediately, even though it was not finished. It was the warmest and best scarf that I had ever worn. That night, I sat by Grandma’s bed, holding her hand, and apologized sincerely to her for my foolishness and selfishness, “Grandma! I have let you down. I’m terribly sorry for this.” Hearing this, Grandma simply smiled at me and gently petted my hair, saying lovingly, “I know all along that you love me, dear. That’s enough!” A week later, Grandma passed away. I was heartbroken for quite a while. I kept the half-knit scarf with me every day, and I finished knitting it with her old needles. Whenever I wear it, I can feel her love around me. I eventually realized that the most precious things in life are not the fancy and fashionable ones, but the simple and sincere love from our family. Love is never outdated and it’ll always warm our hearts, even when our loved one is gone. Sometimes, we are too busy chasing what we think is perfect, but we forget to treasure the love that has been around us all along. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了奶奶常年为作者织围巾，上高中后作者嫌款式老旧不愿佩戴，还刻意隐瞒，奶奶便不再织了，作者虽愧疚却碍于面子不肯道歉。后来作者偶然发现她带病为作者织新围巾，深受触动并向她致歉。不久奶奶离世，作者完成了那条未织完的围巾。这件事让作者明白，真挚的亲情之爱从不落伍，值得用心珍惜。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者带上围巾感受到温暖，深受触动并向奶奶致歉。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写不久奶奶离世，作者完成了那条未织完的围巾。这件事让作者明白，真挚的亲情之爱从不落伍，值得用心珍惜。 2.续写线索：带上围巾→感受到温暖→受到触动→向奶奶道歉→奶奶去世→作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①微笑：smile/beam ②意识到：realize/be aware of 情绪类 ①真诚地：sincerely/genuinely ②愚蠢：foolishness/stupidity 【点睛】[高分句型1] It was the warmest and best scarf that I had ever worn.（运用了that引导定语从句） [高分句型2] Whenever I wear it, I can feel her love around me.（运用了whenever引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二年级下学期期末一考试英语学科试题 本试卷满分150分，考试用时125分钟。 注意事项： 1、答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在试题卷和答题卡上，并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2、选择题的作答：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，写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3、非选择题的作答：用签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4、考试结束后，请将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 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。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.

B There’s a wrapper half-sunk in the mud under the bush. Each time I grab it with my litter-picker, another piece tears off. I persist, until all the pieces are in my bin liner. Then I move on. I’m volunteering with a group at my local park. They perform a range of tasks, but today we’re litter-picking. When our bags are full, we gather for a break, in our yellow vests (马甲). I arrived this morning feeling depressed, but this simple, repetitive and collective act has comforted me and pulled me away from the doom scroll of my mind. It’s easy to assume that the best way to lift your spirits when you’re feeling down is to do something nice for yourself. However, research suggests that altruistic (利他的) acts work better. I did not know this when I signed up with the conservation group. What I did know was that I was feeling deeply upset about the ecological and climate crises. It was the counsellor (咨询师) I was seeing who switched me on to the idea of volunteering. He gave me three rules: make it simple, immediate and cooperative. That’s how, a week later, I found myself in a park fishing old carrier bags out of the river. Psychologists call the mental boost from volunteering the “helper’s high”. And I did feel that lift, which soon led me to sign up to volunteer at other places. Every time I volunteered, I would come home feeling better — lifted by the fresh air, the natural environment and the companion — and, perhaps most of all, by having acted in line with my values. I didn’t mind if the tasks were exhausting or repetitive. I was taking action, learning new skills, and feeling part of something meaningful. That’s not to say I didn’t — and still don’t — sometimes wonder: Are we really making a difference here? But I remind myself of my counsellor’s advice that I should not be discouraged by people saying that my actions were only a drop in the ocean, since an ocean is made up of millions upon millions of drops. While it was my total despair with the environment that led me into volunteering, it’s the goodness and kindness that I’ve witnessed while working alongside my fellow volunteers that have kept me coming. And I think yellow is my color. 4. How did the author feel before litter-picking in the park this morning? A. Relaxed. B. Frustrated. C. Confused. D. Encouraged. 5. What motivated the author to start volunteering? A. His inspiration from a counsellor. B. His litter-picking experience. C. His own confusion about life values. D. His desire to improve cooperative skills. 6. What insight did the author mainly gain from the volunteering? A. Helping others has a positive impact on one’s career. B. People need stronger ties with local communities. C. Climate crisis needs an immediate solution. D. Individual goodness brings about great power. 7. What can be inferred about the author from the last paragraph? A. He values the warmheartedness of local people. B. He believes the color will help him stay positive. C. He feels a stronger connection to the volunteer role. D. He views the color as a warning sign of environment. C In 2019, the multimillionaire and explorer Victor Vescovo made headlines when he became the first person to visit the deepest parts of all five of Earth’s oceans. But arguably the real star of the expedition was marine geologist Cassie Bongiovanni, the lead ocean mapper who ensured Vescovo piloted his submersible (潜水器) to the actual deepest depths. Today, only 25 percent of the seafloor is well mapped. “Traditionally, captains never cared about the seafloor as long as it stayed far enough away from the bodies of their ships,” journalist Laura Trethewey writes in The Deepest Map. The book explores humankind’s journey to map the seafloor, framed around Bongiovanni’s adventures. Seafloor landform has been a big concern for companies facilitating intercontinental communication via subsea cables. In recent decades, seafloor data have become crucial to the deep-sea mining industries searching for metals needed to produce green technology. Satellites have revealed many of the knobs and cracks visible in the deep blue of Google Maps. But with that relatively rough information, entire mountains can be missed. To see the seafloor in high resolution requires a precise sonar (声呐) system aboard a big ship that sends sound signals from the sea surface into the deep sea. Mappers like Bongiovanni calculate depth from the time it takes for the signal to travel down and bounce back to the surface. These most-advanced sonar systems transform the satellite-predicted blur (模糊的东西) into a sharp three-dimensional terrain of ripples (海底波纹), cracks and tears in the seafloor. “The seafloor is ‘heard’, rather than seen,” Trethewey writes. Trethewey’s insightful writing helps readers understand just why mapping the ocean — even in shallow coastal waters — is crucial to so many endeavors. Trethewey’s book is about more than just mapping the oceans. It’s also about what can go wrong when explorers explore. It’s hard to read The Deepest Map without being reminded of the recent inner explosion of the Titan submersible in the North Atlantic killing everyone on board in June, 2023. She also reminds us how easily exploration can turn into exploitation (勘探). In the not-so-distant past, Europeans “discovered” the so-called New World and mapped it, Trethewey writes. Exploitation followed. Scientists and environmentalists alike are now concerned that a full, detailed map of the ocean floor might lead to the destruction of the delicate, mostly unknown habitats if deep-sea miners are allowed to obtain metals. 8. What can we learn from the first paragraph? A. The seafloor mapping work still has a long way to go. B. Vescovo’s expedition failed without Bongiovanni’s help. C. Bongiovanni is the most famous marine geologist in the world. D. The Deepest Map mainly records Vescovo’s exploration stories. 9. What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A. Seafloor data are vital to green-tech related industries. B. Subsea cables rely much on the mapping of the seafloor. C. Satellites fail to observe mountains under the deep ocean. D. Sonar systems help get high-precision seafloor landform. 10. Why does the author mention the accident in 2023? A. To remind the readers of the past events. B. To show the bad effect of human activities. C. To recommend the readers to read the book. D. To highlight the practical significance and value of this book. 11. What is the scientists’ attitude towards mapping the ocean floor? A. Favorable. B. Indifferent. C. Cautious. D. Tolerant. D Is a teenage boy more likely to grow up working with children as a teacher or with engines as a mechanic? Smart money bets on the latter, and that would still hold true even if you switch up the country or decade throughout the 20th century. But why? What are the factors that contribute to this seemingly stereotypical outcome? You might think that social forces — discrimination, gender roles, etc. significantly shape these outcomes, but research shows that men and women’s occupational pursuits and interests have not changed much over the past century, even as societal norms decidedly have. Boys and girls tend to pursue jobs dealing with things and people respectively. And, perhaps counter-intuitively (与直觉相反), this preference for sex-typical jobs tends to increase when their country offers more economic and political empowerment for women — a phenomenon called the “gender-equality paradox (悖论)”. A recent study noted that with fewer economic worries, greater national wealth might enable more students to pursue jobs to which they are naturally drawn. “Individual students in wealthy nations with strong social safety nets might choose more in accordance with biologically influenced occupational interests than in accordance with political ideals,” the study stated. Social factors may indeed play a role in determining which jobs young men and women are interested in, but biology seems to be a considerable force driving these outcomes. From a policy perspective, that means that interventions designed to bring more women into fields like STEM might need to be readjusted. From my perspective, it is worth considering whether such interventions are appropriate in the first place. After all, if we want greater national wealth and gender equality, and these two things seem to push people towards sex-typical jobs, then why not let the chips fall where they may? Moreover, what might be good for organizations and businesses is not always the same as what is good for individuals. 12. What does the underlined word “stereotypical” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Appealing. B. Influential. C. Productive. D. Unchanged. 13. What leads the phenomenon of “gender-equality paradox” to occur? A. Girls’ observing the societal norms all the time. B. Boys’ constant pursuing careers to do with people. C. Women’s gaining more economic and political support. D. Men’s having less access to sex-typical occupations nowadays. 14. What is most likely to determine individuals’ occupational interest? A. Political ideals. B. Biological factors. C. Social safety nets. D. Readjusted interventions. 15. Which of the following does the author probably agree with? A. Individuals should pursue their favored jobs despite the intervention. B. Gender equality is having a greater impact on sex-typical occupations. C. Organizations and businesses have benefited greatly from economic growth. D. More proper policies should be made to intervene in women’s career options. 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。 How to find your dream career?

Every winter, she would knit a thick scarf (围巾) for me, with soft wool and neat stitches (缝合) that wrapped around my neck like her gentle hug. But when I entered senior high school, I thought her scarves were outdated and boring. I started hiding them in the corner of my closet, never wearing them, even on the coldest days. I even lied to her, saying, “Grandma, the scarves are too warm. I don’t need them any more.” Grandma’s eyes became less bright when she heard that, but she never complained. She just smiled and said with concern, “It’s okay, dear. As long as you’re warm.” From then on, she stopped knitting scarves for me. Instead, she spent every afternoon sitting by the window, holding her old knitting needles, staring at the empty yarn (纱线) basket, lost in deep thought. I felt a little guilty, but I never apologized — pride prevented me from admitting that I was wrong. One day, I came home late from school, feeling tired and cold. I accidentally knocked over the closet, and all my clothes fell out, including the hidden scarves. Among them, I found a new scarf, half-knit, with my favorite blue wool. Beside it was a small note, written in Grandma’s shaky handwriting, “For my dear grandchild, I know you don’t like the old scarves, so I tried a new color. I hope it can keep you warm this winter.” Tears filled my eyes instantly. I rushed to Grandma’s room, only to find her lying in bed, weak and pale. My mom told me that Grandma had been badly ill for a month, but she insisted on knitting the scarf for me, saying it was her last wish to ensure I stayed warm. She was too weak to finish it, but she never quit trying. I held the half-knit scarf tightly, feeling the warmth of the wool and the deep love hidden in every stitch. 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。 I put on the half-knit scarf immediately, even though it was not finished. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, Grandma passed away. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
