Kyle Lybarger, often dressed in camo (迷彩服), doesn’t look like a typical social media influencer. Yet, as a forest worker in Alabama, he has found unexpected internet fame by introducing his followers to the overlooked world of southeastern plants. Today, he acts as a guardian for growing rare and endangered plant populations. Ironically, his conservation journey began with an ecological mistake.
A decade ago, while managing a private forest, Lybarger wanted to attract more deer and wild turkeys. He chose an open, rocky area, deciding it would be a good place to plant food for wildlife. He used herbicide (除草剂) to clear existing plants, sowing a foreign seed fix. In the dry, shallow soil, the seeds didn’t take. But around the edges of the land, where he hadn’t used herbicide, a breathtaking picture of colorful, unfamiliar native flowers came into view in the sunlight.
After Lybarger posted the photos of the flowers online, a local botanist reached out, identifying the flowers as rare species. Lybarger realized he had nearly killed off an area with a wild seed bank of countless species just to plant a few foreign ones. “That’s really a light bulb moment (灵光一闪),” he recalls. He recognized this reflected a common human tendency to dominate rather than coexist with nature. Diving into research, he learned that before human settlement, the Southeast was home to expansive grasslands. Over the centuries, human development and fire control allowed foreign trees choked out the once-diverse grasslands, killing native species.
Finding a new mission, Lybarger now knocks on doors to instruct landowners who are unknowing hosts of rare plants to care for those populations. He also uses his massive online platform to raise funds to protect biodiversity. His secret sauce, which immediately carried like wildfire across the nation, is his genuine passion. Lybarger’s story proves that true environmental protection begins when we stop rewriting nature and learn to read it.
24. What made the native flowers come out?
A. Herbicide-free soil. B. Wildlife waste.
C. Foreign-seed removal. D. Sufficient sunlight.
25. What does Lybarger’s “light bulb moment” indicate?
A. He found a new planting trick. B. He doubted the expert’s words.
C. He decided to study botany. D. He regretted human intervention.
26. What does Lybarger’s current work involve?
A. Building online platforms. B. Selling his secret sauce for money.
C. Learning conservation rules. D. Educating landowners on rare plants.
27. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. A Campaign Redefines Nature. B. A Mistake Awakens a Guardian.
C. Secrets to Growing Native Plants. D. Hidden Wealth of Vast Grasslands.

Why do life’s challenges make some people stronger and others weaker? The answer may lie in how our minds and genes interact. A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle.
Until now, research into cognitive biases and genetics has been entirely separate, so bringing them together in this research is really exciting. Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. If a child with so-called risky genes is in a good school and has much support, he or she can really flourish. We’re beginning to realize that we shouldn’t call them risky genes, but sensitivity genes. This means that some people at risk of mental health problems could, in the right conditions, be really happy.
The other side of the research looks at cognitive biases. People always say: “Why is the media full of negative news stories?” This negativity can result in a society where people feel very anxious all the time. All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons - it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. They are even more sensitive to the effects of negative information, making it more likely that they will adopt a pessimistic habit of mind. Crucially, these same people who are more affected by negativity are also more likely to be responsive to positive situations and, potentially, to psychological interventions.
Right now, the researchers are on a five-year project and only halfway through. One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders. Once we know this, we will be in a better position to tailor treatments for individuals, rather than applying the one-size-fits-all approach used now.
28. What’s the focus of the new research?
A. Attitudes to different life choices.
B. The influence of negative experiences.
C. Responsive mechanisms to challenges.
D. The relationship between environment and genes.
29. How do the researchers arrive at the realization about “risky genes”?
A. By clarifying an assumption.
B. By comparing different situations.
C. By adjusting research procedures.
D. By analyzing effects of different genes.
30. What makes people sensitive to negativity according to paragraph 3?
A. Pressure from modern life. B. Built-in survival mode.
C. Exposure to negative reports. D. Drive for food resources.
31. Who might benefit more from the research?
A. People with genetic disorders.
B. People having high-risk lifestyles.
C. People with mental health condition.
D. People unwilling to accept challenges.

Books were stamped with “Human Authored” logos (标识) at this week’s London Book Fair. The Society of Authors described its labelling as “an important logo to protect and promote human creativity instead of AI labelled content in the marketplace”.
Visitors to the fair were also given copies of Don’t Steal This Book, a collection of 10,000 writers including Nobel winner Kazuo Ishiguro and Richard Osman, in which the pages are completely blank. The back cover states: “The UK government must not legalize book theft to benefit AI companies.”
The empty book is a protest against AI companies using copyrighted works without permission or payment to train their models and against UK government proposals that could legalize this practice. Organized by Ed Newton-Rex, a composer and copyright campaigner, the project has drawn vast support from the literary world. The AI industry is “built on stolen work”. “This is a crime that has victims,” he added, “Generative AI competes with the creators of the works it trains on, taking away their livelihoods.”
The protest comes just a week before the UK government is due to publish an economic impact assessment of proposed changes to copyright law. The government initially proposed a system, under which AI firms could use copyrighted material unless rights holders refused permission – an exact opposite of copyright law’s core principle. Only 3% of people surveyed backed the plan. The government dropped it but is now considering a “commercial research exception” that would still allow AI companies to use works without approval for commercial training.
For the authors behind Don’t Steal This Book, the blank pages are a powerful symbol: they represent the future of writing if AI companies continue to use creative work without payment - a world where authors are left with nothing. As the Society of Authors put it, the empty book is just a band-aid fix - but the real solution is a copyright system that protects human creativity, not commercial greed.
32. Why were the books stamped with “Human Authored” logos?
A. To introduce promising authors.
B. To promote newly-published works.
C. To show public sympathy for authors.
D. To fight AI stealing copyrighted works.
33. What does the underlined word “victims” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Human writers. B. Literary campaigners.
C. Ordinary readers. D. Generative AI developers.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The protest weakens UK’s economy.
B. The UK government favors AI firms.
C. Copyright law enjoys public support.
D. AI firms prioritize commercial profits.
35. How does the Society of Authors view the empty book?
A. It is a win-win deal. B. It is a game changer.
C. It is a well-intentioned failure. D. It is a temporary measure.

A classic song says, “Everybody needs good neighbours.” But in 2026, do we still need them? Or have we forgotten how to be friendly with those around us? ____36____ But these days, many live next door for years without learning their names. Is neighbourliness disappearing?
Studies show we have less contact with neighbours than before. One survey found that 76% of us believe people were closer to neighbours 20 years ago than today. ____37____
There are reasons behind this fact. People today move homes more often for work or family needs, making long-term connections harder. In smaller communities, people attend the same schools or shops, so they get to know each other easily. But in cities with larger populations, these chance meetings happen less often. ____38____ Long office hours or irregular remote work means neighbours may not see each other. At the same time, many of us care more about privacy. Often, our only interactions are arguments about noise or shared areas.
____39____ A global study found that knowing just six neighbours can reduce loneliness and help people feel safer. For older people or those in poor health, informal acts of support from neighbors can be life-changing. Age UK has highlighted how regular neighbourly contact can help older residents stay independent for longer, while reducing social isolation.
Ultimately, there’s no hard and fast rulebook to being a good neighbour. ____40____ But at the very least, making sure to smile and offer a kind word can go much further than you might think.
A. Our working patterns also play a part.
B. However, having good neighbours still matters.
C. Most people spend more time socializing than working.
D. What feels caring to one may feel unwelcome to another.
E. Once, our front doors remained unlocked for friendly faces.
F. It also found that one in five have never spoken to neighbours.
G. The survey also noted urban residents interact less with neighbours.

One afternoon, as I was diving into life’s deeper questions with my students, a thoughtful boy named Jack raised his hand. “Why do so many people feel lost?” he asked. ____41____ their curiosity, I decided to show them the ropes through experience rather than simply ____42____. “Follow me,” I said, leading them toward the nearby ____43____.
Whispers filled the air. “Why are we going there?” Emma murmured. “Are there wild animals?” Liam added nervously. “Are we even going to ____44____ this?” A voice trembled from the back. I stayed ____45____, walking calmly ahead. The students trailed behind me, their minds racing with ____46____. Some panicked over ____47____ lions; others pictured snakes. With every step, their anxiety ____48____, yet I said nothing.
After forty minutes, we stopped at the forest’s edge. ____49____ them, I smiled. “Don’t worry — we won’t be entering. But tell me, what did you notice on our way here?” The students fell silent. “You were so caught up in ____50____ of the unknown,” I continued, “that you ____51____ the birds singing, the sunlight filtering through the leaves, and the ____52____ around you.”
Jack’s eyes lit up with realization. “So… we worry so much about the future that we ____53____ to live now?”
“Exactly,” I replied. “Life is a ____54____. If we let fear take over on the way, we’ll miss its wonders.” The students nodded, their faces brightening.
As we walked back, they laughed, finally noticing the world they’d overlooked before. The lesson was simple but profound: The ____55____ shapes the future. Don’t let fear steal today’s gifts.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My most memorable Thanksgiving happened last year at our local church, where a simple outreach program blossomed into a profound lesson on the power of sharing, care, and inclusion.
A week before Thanksgiving, with a few church members, we wanted to give away holiday meals for families in our community. We contacted neighbors and social workers for families who might be struggling. Their responses were overwhelming: a single mother, Amy, working two jobs to pay medical bills; an elderly couple, Mr and Mrs Jones, whose fixed income couldn’t stretch; the Tomas family, displaced by a recent fire...
Eventually, we created a list of 10 families in financial need, each to receive a Thanksgiving food basket. These were carefully prepared baskets with all necessities for a traditional holiday meal: golden stuffing mix, green beans, sweet potatoes, jellied cranberry sauce, flour, butter, onions, and dessert items, and even turkeys and hams.
That night, the fellowship hall buzzed with laughter and emotion. As each family arrived to pick up their basket, their gratitude was evident. Mr and Mrs Jones shared how this would be their first full meal together in weeks. Amy spoke quietly about job losses, and others about hardships. Yet, in that hall, there was warmth restored.
Just as the families were about to leave, a father, mother, and a child with worn but neat clothes stepped in. The father said they had simply heard through word of mouth that a church was giving out food and decided to come. Clearly, they were not on our list. I approached them and explained that we were unable to provide supplies today for an extra family due to limited resources. I felt so sorry as I looked at the family, hoping they would understand the difficult circumstances. The man responded with an awkward smile, saying, “Oh, never mind. We just came to see if anything was available. Thank you anyway.”
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。
Paragraph 1: Just as the disappointed family were about to leave, Mrs Jones stopped them.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Seeing the special “basket”, the family were moved to tears.

Kyle Lybarger, often dressed in camo (迷彩服), doesn’t look like a typical social media influencer. Yet, as a forest worker in Alabama, he has found unexpected internet fame by introducing his followers to the overlooked world of southeastern plants. Today, he acts as a guardian for growing rare and endangered plant populations. Ironically, his conservation journey began with an ecological mistake.
A decade ago, while managing a private forest, Lybarger wanted to attract more deer and wild turkeys. He chose an open, rocky area, deciding it would be a good place to plant food for wildlife. He used herbicide (除草剂) to clear existing plants, sowing a foreign seed fix. In the dry, shallow soil, the seeds didn’t take. But around the edges of the land, where he hadn’t used herbicide, a breathtaking picture of colorful, unfamiliar native flowers came into view in the sunlight.
After Lybarger posted the photos of the flowers online, a local botanist reached out, identifying the flowers as rare species. Lybarger realized he had nearly killed off an area with a wild seed bank of countless species just to plant a few foreign ones. “That’s really a light bulb moment (灵光一闪),” he recalls. He recognized this reflected a common human tendency to dominate rather than coexist with nature. Diving into research, he learned that before human settlement, the Southeast was home to expansive grasslands. Over the centuries, human development and fire control allowed foreign trees choked out the once-diverse grasslands, killing native species.
Finding a new mission, Lybarger now knocks on doors to instruct landowners who are unknowing hosts of rare plants to care for those populations. He also uses his massive online platform to raise funds to protect biodiversity. His secret sauce, which immediately carried like wildfire across the nation, is his genuine passion. Lybarger’s story proves that true environmental protection begins when we stop rewriting nature and learn to read it.
24. What made the native flowers come out?
A. Herbicide-free soil. B. Wildlife waste.
C. Foreign-seed removal. D. Sufficient sunlight.
25. What does Lybarger’s “light bulb moment” indicate?
A. He found a new planting trick. B. He doubted the expert’s words.
C. He decided to study botany. D. He regretted human intervention.
26. What does Lybarger’s current work involve?
A. Building online platforms. B. Selling his secret sauce for money.
C. Learning conservation rules. D. Educating landowners on rare plants.
27. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A. A Campaign Redefines Nature. B. A Mistake Awakens a Guardian.
C. Secrets to Growing Native Plants. D. Hidden Wealth of Vast Grasslands.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述一名林业工人因一次生态失误醒悟,转而守护本土珍稀植物、践行环保的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But around the edges of the land, where he hadn’t used herbicide, a breathtaking picture of colorful, unfamiliar native flowers came into view in the sunlight. (但在这片土地边缘、未曾喷洒除草剂的区域,绚烂多姿、鲜为人知的本土野花在阳光下竞相绽放,景色美不胜收。)”可知,是未使用除草剂的土壤让本土野花得以生长。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Lybarger realized he had nearly killed off an area with a wild seed bank of countless species just to plant a few foreign ones. “That’s really a light bulb moment (灵光一闪),” he recalls. He recognized this reflected a common human tendency to dominate rather than coexist with nature. (Lybarger意识到,自己只为种植少许外来植物,险些毁掉这片蕴藏无数物种野生种子库的土地。他回忆道:“那一刻我幡然醒悟。” 他认识到,这折射出人类普遍的习性:总想主宰自然,而非与自然和谐共生。)”可知,Lybarger的“灵光一闪”时刻表明他后悔人类对自然的干预。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Finding a new mission, Lybarger now knocks on doors to instruct landowners who are unknowing hosts of rare plants to care for those populations. (找到了新的使命,Lybarger现在挨家挨户地指导那些不知道自己是稀有植物主人的土地所有者照顾这些植物种群。)”可知,Lybarger目前的工作包括教育土地所有者关于稀有植物的知识。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据第一段中“Yet, as a forest worker in Alabama, he has found unexpected internet fame by introducing his followers to the overlooked world of southeastern plants. Today, he acts as a guardian for growing rare and endangered plant populations. Ironically, his conservation journey began with an ecological mistake. (然而,这位阿拉巴马州的林业工人,凭借向粉丝介绍鲜为人知的东南部植物意外走红。如今,他致力于守护珍稀濒危植物。颇具讽刺的是,他的环保之路,始于一次生态失误。)”可知,文章主要讲述了Kyle Lybarger因一次生态失误幡然醒悟,从此投身珍稀植物保护,成为自然守护者的故事。选项B“一个错误唤醒了一位守护者”准确概括了文章核心,是文章的最佳标题。
C
Why do life’s challenges make some people stronger and others weaker? The answer may lie in how our minds and genes interact. A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle.
Until now, research into cognitive biases and genetics has been entirely separate, so bringing them together in this research is really exciting. Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. If a child with so-called risky genes is in a good school and has much support, he or she can really flourish. We’re beginning to realize that we shouldn’t call them risky genes, but sensitivity genes. This means that some people at risk of mental health problems could, in the right conditions, be really happy.
The other side of the research looks at cognitive biases. People always say: “Why is the media full of negative news stories?” This negativity can result in a society where people feel very anxious all the time. All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons - it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. They are even more sensitive to the effects of negative information, making it more likely that they will adopt a pessimistic habit of mind. Crucially, these same people who are more affected by negativity are also more likely to be responsive to positive situations and, potentially, to psychological interventions.
Right now, the researchers are on a five-year project and only halfway through. One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders. Once we know this, we will be in a better position to tailor treatments for individuals, rather than applying the one-size-fits-all approach used now.
28. What’s the focus of the new research?
A. Attitudes to different life choices.
B. The influence of negative experiences.
C. Responsive mechanisms to challenges.
D. The relationship between environment and genes.
29. How do the researchers arrive at the realization about “risky genes”?
A. By clarifying an assumption.
B. By comparing different situations.
C. By adjusting research procedures.
D. By analyzing effects of different genes.
30. What makes people sensitive to negativity according to paragraph 3?
A. Pressure from modern life. B. Built-in survival mode.
C. Exposure to negative reports. D. Drive for food resources.
31. Who might benefit more from the research?
A. People with genetic disorders.
B. People having high-risk lifestyles.
C. People with mental health condition.
D. People unwilling to accept challenges.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍一项新研究探究心理与基因机制,解释逆境让人强弱有别的原因,并有望实现心理疾病个性化治疗。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A new research project is now investigating the cognitive and genetic mechanisms that cause some people to flourish and others to struggle.(一项新的研究项目正在探究认知和遗传机制,解释为何有人面对困境能成长、有人却陷入挣扎。)”可知,这项新研究聚焦人面对挑战时的反应机制。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Previous research clearly tells us that certain sets of genes may lead people to develop anxiety or depression when they experience negative life events. But the new research finds that, in certain situations, those genes can also be a real benefit to people when they’re in supportive environments. (以往的研究明确表明,当人们遭遇生活中的负面事件时,某些基因组合可能会使人患上焦虑症或抑郁症。但这项新研究发现,在特定环境下,身处充满关怀支持的氛围中时,这些基因也能给人带来实实在在的益处。)”可知,研究人员通过对比不同环境下基因的不同影响,得出关于 “风险基因” 这一结论。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“All of our brains are naturally tuned into negativity for evolutionary reasons — it’s more important to spot a predator (捕食者) than food-but this is especially true for anxious or depressed people. (出于进化层面的原因,所有人的大脑天生就会对负面情绪更为敏感——发现捕食者远比寻找食物更为重要,而这一点在焦虑或抑郁人群身上体现得尤为明显。)”可知,对负面信息敏感源于与生俱来的生存本能模式。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“One of the exciting things is the possibility of developing much more personalized treatment options for psychological disorders.(这项研究有望为心理疾病研发更具个性化的治疗方案。)”可知,有心理健康问题的人群将从该研究中获益更多。

Books were stamped with “Human Authored” logos (标识) at this week’s London Book Fair. The Society of Authors described its labelling as “an important logo to protect and promote human creativity instead of AI labelled content in the marketplace”.
Visitors to the fair were also given copies of Don’t Steal This Book, a collection of 10,000 writers including Nobel winner Kazuo Ishiguro and Richard Osman, in which the pages are completely blank. The back cover states: “The UK government must not legalize book theft to benefit AI companies.”
The empty book is a protest against AI companies using copyrighted works without permission or payment to train their models and against UK government proposals that could legalize this practice. Organized by Ed Newton-Rex, a composer and copyright campaigner, the project has drawn vast support from the literary world. The AI industry is “built on stolen work”. “This is a crime that has victims,” he added, “Generative AI competes with the creators of the works it trains on, taking away their livelihoods.”
The protest comes just a week before the UK government is due to publish an economic impact assessment of proposed changes to copyright law. The government initially proposed a system, under which AI firms could use copyrighted material unless rights holders refused permission – an exact opposite of copyright law’s core principle. Only 3% of people surveyed backed the plan. The government dropped it but is now considering a “commercial research exception” that would still allow AI companies to use works without approval for commercial training.
For the authors behind Don’t Steal This Book, the blank pages are a powerful symbol: they represent the future of writing if AI companies continue to use creative work without payment - a world where authors are left with nothing. As the Society of Authors put it, the empty book is just a band-aid fix - but the real solution is a copyright system that protects human creativity, not commercial greed.
32. Why were the books stamped with “Human Authored” logos?
A. To introduce promising authors.
B. To promote newly-published works.
C. To show public sympathy for authors.
D. To fight AI stealing copyrighted works.
33. What does the underlined word “victims” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Human writers. B. Literary campaigners.
C. Ordinary readers. D. Generative AI developers.
34. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. The protest weakens UK’s economy.
B. The UK government favors AI firms.

【答案】32 D 33. A 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文围绕伦敦书展上作家群体的抗议活动展开。作家协会推出 “人类创作” 标识,上万名作家推出空白抗议书籍,抵制 AI 企业未经授权盗用受版权保护的作品训练模型;同时介绍英国政府版权法案的摇摆调整,作家群体认为空白书只是临时手段,完善版权体系才是根本办法。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The Society of Authors described its labelling as “an important logo to protect and promote human creativity instead of AI labelled content in the marketplace”.(作家协会将这种标识描述为“一种重要标识,用于保护和促进人类创造力,而非市场上人工智能标注的内容”)”以及第三段“The empty book is a protest against AI companies using copyrighted works without permission or payment to train their models...(这本空白书是对人工智能公司未经许可或未支付报酬就使用受版权保护的作品来训练其模型的抗议……)”可知,书籍盖上“人类创作”标识是为了抵制人工智能窃取受版权保护的作品。
【33题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段“Organized by Ed Newton-Rex, a composer and copyright campaigner, the project has drawn vast support from the literary world. The AI industry is “built on stolen work”.(该项目由作曲家兼版权活动家埃德·牛顿 - 雷克斯组织,获得了文学界的广泛支持。人工智能行业是“建立在被盗用的作品之上”的)”以及后文“Generative AI competes with the creators of the works it trains on, taking away their livelihoods.(生成式人工智能与其所训练作品的创作者竞争,夺走了他们的生计)”可知,这里说的“受害者”指的是人类作家,因为人工智能公司的行为损害了他们的利益。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“The government initially proposed a system, under which AI firms could use copyrighted material unless rights holders refused permission – an exact opposite of copyright law’s core principle. Only 3% of people surveyed backed the plan. The government dropped it but is now considering a “commercial research exception” that would still allow AI companies to use works without approval for commercial training.(政府最初提议了一个系统,在这个系统下,除非版权所有者拒绝许可,人工智能公司可以使用受版权保护的材料——这与版权法的核心原则完全相反。只有3%的受访者支持该计划。政府放弃了该计划,但现在正在考虑一个“商业研究例外”,这仍将允许人工智能公司未经批准就使用作品进行商业训练)”可知,该段主要表明英国政府在版权问题上倾向于人工智能公司。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“As the Society of Authors put it, the empty book is just a band - aid fix - but the real solution is a copyright system that protects human creativity, not commercial greed.(正如作家协会所说,这本空白书只是一个权宜之计——但真正的解决办法是建立一个保护人类创造力而非商业贪欲的版权制度)”可知,作家协会认为空白书是一种临时措施。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A classic song says, “Everybody needs good neighbours.” But in 2026, do we still need them? Or have we forgotten how to be friendly with those around us? ____36____ But these days, many live next door for years without learning their names. Is neighbourliness disappearing?
Studies show we have less contact with neighbours than before. One survey found that 76% of us believe people were closer to neighbours 20 years ago than today. ____37____
There are reasons behind this fact. People today move homes more often for work or family needs, making long-term connections harder. In smaller communities, people attend the same schools or shops, so they get to know each other easily. But in cities with larger populations, these chance meetings happen less often. ____38____ Long office hours or irregular remote work means neighbours may not see each other. At the same time, many of us care more about privacy. Often, our only interactions are arguments about noise or shared areas.
____39____ A global study found that knowing just six neighbours can reduce loneliness and help people feel safer. For older people or those in poor health, informal acts of support from neighbors can be life-changing. Age UK has highlighted how regular neighbourly contact can help older residents stay independent for longer, while reducing social isolation.
Ultimately, there’s no hard and fast rulebook to being a good neighbour. ____40____ But at the very least, making sure to smile and offer a kind word can go much further than you might think.
A. Our working patterns also play a part.
B. However, having good neighbours still matters.
C. Most people spend more time socializing than working.
D. What feels caring to one may feel unwelcome to another.
E. Once, our front doors remained unlocked for friendly faces.
F. It also found that one in five have never spoken to neighbours.
G. The survey also noted urban residents interact less with neighbours.
【答案】36. E 37. F 38. A 39. B 40. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了现代社会邻里关系疏远的现象、原因及拥有好邻居仍很重要。
【36题详解】
上文“A classic song says, “Everybody needs good neighbours. “But in 2026, do we still need them? Or have we forgotten how to be friendly with those around us? (一首经典歌曲唱道:“每个人都需要好邻居。”但在2026年,我们还需要他们吗?还是我们已经忘记了如何与周围的人友好相处?)”通过经典歌曲引出关于邻里关系的讨论,并提出了对现代社会邻里关系现状的疑问。E选项“Once, our front doors remained unlocked for friendly faces. (曾经,我们的前门都不上锁,以便友善的邻居来访。)”描述了过去邻里关系友好、门户开放的状态,与上文提到的经典歌曲中的邻里友好理念相呼应,同时与下文“But these days, many live next door for years without learning their names. (但如今,许多人住在隔壁多年却不知道对方的名字。)”形成鲜明对比,突出了邻里关系的变化,符合语境。
【37题详解】
上文“One survey found that 76% of us believe people were closer to neighbours 20 years ago than today. (一项调查发现,76%的人认为20年前人们与邻居的关系比现在更亲密。)”通过调查数据说明了过去邻里关系比现在更亲密。F选项“It also found that one in five have never spoken to neighbours. (该调查还发现,五分之一的人从未与邻居说过话。)”进一步补充了调查结果,揭示了现在邻里关系的疏远程度,与上文紧密相连,共同构成了对邻里关系变化的描述。
【38题详解】
上文“There are reasons behind this fact. People today move homes more often for work or family needs, making long-term connections harder. In smaller communities, people attend the same schools or shops, so they get to know each other easily. But in cities with larger populations, these chance meetings happen less often. (这一现象背后有原因。如今,人们更频繁地因工作或家庭需要搬家,这使得建立长期关系变得更加困难。在较小的社区里,人们上同一所学校或去同一家商店,所以他们很容易认识彼此。但在人口较多的城市里,这种偶遇的机会就少了。)”分析了邻里关系疏远的原因,包括频繁搬家和城市人口多导致偶遇机会减少等,A选项“Our working patterns also play a part. (我们的工作模式也起到了一定作用。)”承接上文,并引出下文“Long office hours or irregular remote work means neighbours may not see each other. (长时间办公或不定期远程工作意味着邻居可能见不到彼此。)”中提到的长时间办公或远程工作等导致邻里之间难以见面的工作模式因素,共同构成了对邻里关系疏远原因的全面分析,符合语境。
【39题详解】
下文“A global study found that knowing just six neighbours can reduce loneliness and help people feel safer. For older people or those in poor health, informal acts of support from neighbors can be life-changing. (一项全球研究发现,只要认识六个邻居就能减少孤独感,让人们感到更安全。对于老年人或健康状况不佳的人来说,邻居的非正式支持可能会改变他们的生活。)”通过全球研究的结果强调了邻里关系的重要性,特别是对减少孤独感和提供支持方面的作用。B选项“However, having good neighbours still matters. (然而,有好邻居仍然很重要。)”作为上文的转折和下文的引子,既总结了上文关于邻里关系疏远的讨论,又引出了下文关于邻里关系重要性的论述,起到了承上启下的作用。
【40题详解】
上文“Ultimately, there’s no hard and fast rulebook to being a good neighbour. (最终,成为好邻居并没有固定的规则。)”以及下文“But at the very least, making sure to smile and offer a kind word can go much further than you might think. (但至少,确保微笑并说一句善意的话会比你想的更有用。)”指出成为好邻居没有固定规则,下文则提出了一个具体的建议,即微笑并说善意的话。D选项“What feels caring to one may feel unwelcome to another. (对一个人来说感到关心的行为,对另一个人来说可能不受欢迎。)”解释没有统一标准的原因,衔接顺畅,符合语境。

Thank you for listening!
【答案】Hello everyone,
I’m honored to share my feelings about our recent Campus Beautification Day. During the activity, all students worked together to clean up litter, trim weeds and decorate our campus. Not only did the campus turn cleaner, but we also gained valuable lessons about labour and teamwork that book learning can never offer.
However, to make further progress, I have two tips. First, we need regular cleaning rather than short-term activities. Second, we should launch lectures that help students develop lifelong environmental awareness. I’m sure our campus will grow into a nicer place for us all.
Thank you for listening!

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My most memorable Thanksgiving happened last year at our local church, where a simple outreach program blossomed into a profound lesson on the power of sharing, care, and inclusion.
A week before Thanksgiving, with a few church members, we wanted to give away holiday meals for families in our community. We contacted neighbors and social workers for families who might be struggling. Their responses were overwhelming: a single mother, Amy, working two jobs to pay medical bills; an elderly couple, Mr and Mrs Jones, whose fixed income couldn’t stretch; the Tomas family, displaced by a recent fire...
Eventually, we created a list of 10 families in financial need, each to receive a Thanksgiving food basket. These were carefully prepared baskets with all necessities for a traditional holiday meal: golden stuffing mix, green beans, sweet potatoes, jellied cranberry sauce, flour, butter, onions, and dessert items, and even turkeys and hams.
That night, the fellowship hall buzzed with laughter and emotion. As each family arrived to pick up their basket, their gratitude was evident. Mr and Mrs Jones shared how this would be their first full meal together in weeks. Amy spoke quietly about job losses, and others about hardships. Yet, in that hall, there was warmth restored.
Just as the families were about to leave, a father, mother, and a child with worn but neat clothes stepped in. The father said they had simply heard through word of mouth that a church was giving out food and decided to come. Clearly, they were not on our list. I approached them and explained that we were unable to provide supplies today for an extra family due to limited resources. I felt so sorry as I looked at the family, hoping they would understand the difficult circumstances. The man responded with an awkward smile, saying, “Oh, never mind. We just came to see if anything was available. Thank you anyway.”
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。
Paragraph 1: Just as the disappointed family were about to leave, Mrs Jones stopped them.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Seeing the special “basket”, the family were moved to tears.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文:
Just as the disappointed family were about to leave, Mrs Jones stopped them. She hurried over with her neatly packed food basket. “Wait a moment,” she said gently, fetching an empty box from the corner of hall. She pulled out a bag of golden stuffing mix and laid it carefully into the box. Mr Jones stood beside her, nodded in agreement, “We don’t need so much food for just the two of us.” Inspired by their kindness, Amy reached into her basket for a jar of jellied cranberry sauce, while the Tomas family contributed six plump sweet potatoes. One by one, each family stepped forward and offered an item. Soon, the empty box was transformed into the 11th special basket, brimming with all the Thanksgiving necessities, woven together by the love of everyone present.
Seeing the special “basket”, the family were moved to tears. The mother quickly wiped her moist eyes with the back of her hand, and clutched her child tightly to her chest, while the father held the basket as if it were a precious treasure. “Thank you, thank you all so much,” he said hoarsely, his voice choked with deep gratitude. The child looked up at the crowd and whispered a shy yet sincere“thank you” too. As they left, the warm glow of the church lights fell on their figures, gently illuminating their path home. That night, we all grasped the true essence of Thanksgiving — it lies not just in giving, but in sharing hand in hand.
