Job Displacement vs Task Automation vs Job Exposure Job Displacement Task Automation Job Exposure A job is removed or the number Specific tasks within a job are A job contains tasks that AI can of employees is cut for good automated,but the role itself assist with or perform,even if because Al or automation continues to exist-often with full automation is not makes the position higher output expectations or technically or economically economically unnecessary. fewer people performing it.practical. "Job displacement"is frequently misunderstood.Most impact occurs through task automation or job exposure rather than full job replacement.In practice,this means workers are more likely to experience job transformation,wage pressure,or slower hiring.As shown below,the automation risk varies significantly by sector(行业)： Sector Category Automation Risk Key Characteristics High-Risk Up to 80% Repetitive tasks (e.g.,Customer Service,Data Entry). Medium-Risk Gradual Shift Role compression via productivity gains (e.g, Manufacturing). Low-Risk Highly Stable Complex human interaction (e.g.,Healthcare,Skilled Trades). The World Economic Forum estimates that while AI may displace 85-92 million jobs globally by 2030,it is expected to create 97-170 million new roles,resulting in net global job growth. However,this positivity masks a critical issue:accessibility.Most emerging roles demand advanced technical skills,with roughly 77%requiring a master's degree.This creates a serious problem; displaced workers often face barriers preventing them from transitioning into these high-value roles. Thus,net positive employment does not guarantee a smooth transition for everyone. Ultimately,AI removes the tolerance for average performance.Workers should focus on building AI competence and decision-making skills that work well with rather than compete with technology.Meanwhile,businesses must prioritize active reskilling and role redesign to enhance human potential instead of pursuing blind automation. 21.What do we know about Job Exposure? A.Some tasks have been automated. B.Job automation is not practical. C.AI can handle part of a job's tasks. D.It leads to the complete loss of jobs. 22.What is the main challenge behind the net job growth? A.AI creates fewer jobs than it replaces. B.Displaced workers refuse to learn new things C.Companies are not willing to hire more new staff. D.Job quantity and worker qualifications don't match. 23.What is the priority for businesses according to the text? A.Replacing humans with full automation. B.Lowering the standards for average workers. C.Investing in developing workers'new abilities D.Competing directly with advanced technology. 【高二英语第3页（共9页）】 B In a busy community hall,a volunteer sits at a sewing machine,mending()someone's much-loved dress,while at another table,household tools are fixed.This is the Share and Repair Cafe,run by Transition Crich,a"share and repair"project,in the village of Crich. This project began five years ago,when the local magazine asked if anyone was interested in coming together as volunteers to make their village become more sustainable and environmentally friendly."We've grown from just mending items to having craft activities,a cafe area,and stands from local groups,"says committee member Linda.Crucially,the group doesn't charge for its services."You don't have to pay for your repairs.We just ask for donations to cover our costs,"says Linda. Alan volunteers at the Share and Repair Cafe as part of the sharpening service,helping give new life to everything from kitchen knives to garden tools."The community in Crich have been, and continue to be,.an amazing support to my family,following my cancer diagnosis(诊断)，”he says."Getting involved has helped shape a positive mindset,and helped extend my time on the planet.Giving something back is the least I can do." This commitment to action is evident in other projects that Transition Crich facilitates.A fashion show is coming up,too.People will write their creative ideas about sustainable clothing on pieces of fabric to call on individuals to fight against fast fashion.A photography competition encourages people to take photos while being cognizantof nature.The group also works with a junior school on environmental awareness projects,helping young students learn to mend their connection to the natural world. Whether a volunteer or event attendee,the community benefit greatly from being involved with Transition Crich.As we all know,loneliness isn't reserved for one particular group of society. What makes inclusion initiatives like Transition Crich truly wonderful is their ability to mend the gap s between generations,bringing together people of different ages in ways that might otherwise be hard to achieve. 24.What inspired the start of the"share and repair"project? A.A repaired item. B.A donation campaign. C.A volunteer appeal. D.A classic handcraft. 25.What does the sharpening service bring to Alan? A.An optimistic attitude to life. B.Better treatments of cancer. C.A steady economic support. D.Improved professional skills. 26.What does the underlined word"cognizant"in paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Analytical.B.Mindful. C.Curious. D. Independent. 27.What is the best title of the text? A.Friends Who Mend. B.Donations That Count. C.Sharing Coffee,Enjoying Lives. D.Designing Projects,Meeting Locals. C London-based company Brilliant Planet has rented 6,100 hectares of land in southern Morocco, located between the Atlantic Ocean and the Sahara.And it's using it to grow algae(),which absorbs atmospheric carbon dioxide and sends out oxygen. Brilliant Planet's CEO Adam Taylor says the company has developed a way to grow algae at extreme rates starting in a glass cup in a lab and ending in 12,000-square-meter pools of locally 【高二英语第4页（共9页）】 sourced seawater.The algae is obtained from the water,then it is pumped up a 10-story tower and misted into the desert air.In the 30 seconds or so it takes to reach the ground,hot air dries the algae material out,leaving hyper-saline()algae pieces which can be collected and shallow buried, trapping their carbon for thousands of years. "Nature-based solutions are a great way of removing carbon,"Taylor said."Deserts are an underused environment.It does not cost a lot of money to rent the desert.What's more,you are not competing with farms or forests.You are out of the way,not bothering people." Taylor claims that Brilliant Planet's so lution can permanently remove 30 times more carbon dioxide from the atmosphere per hectare per year than a typical European forest.Brilliant Planet's goal is to remove one million metric tons of carbon dioxide per year by the end of the decade. "Globally,we've identified about half a million square kilometers of flat desert-ocean land where it works,"Taylor said,adding that the company hopes to set up in Namibia next. Fatna Ikrame El Fanne,an environmental engineer,described the use of algae as"a new and promising strategy"that"is a typical example of innovative use of natural process to address an urgent global issue."Nevertheless,she expressed caution."Microalgae production on a large scale might damage local ecosystems,lead to overuse of water resources,and change habitats,"she said. There is an acknowledgement that one company can't do it all---and can't go it alone."We are part of a group of probably 40 to 50 wonderful ideas of how people can remove carbon from the atmosphere,"Taylor said,calling for"a Manhattan Project-type attitude"to tackling carbon capture. Whether algae is the solution the world needs remains to be seen.But the idea's growing on people. 28.What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us about Brilliant Planet? A.Its establishment of an algae plant.B.Its process of carbon capture. C.Its method of growing algae. D.Its daily routine in the desert. 29.What advantage did Taylor highlight about using deserts for carbon removal? A.Hug e profits. B.High temperature. C.No biodiversity concerns. D.No occupation of rich land. 30.What can be inferred about the use of algae from El Fanne's words? A.It needs improving. B.It is highly efficient. C.It is not worth promoting D.It is commercially developed. 31.Why is"a Manhattan Project-type attitude"mentioned in the last paragraph? A.To emphasize the necessity of joint efforts. B.To highlight the challenges of carbon removal. C.To recognize the contributions of Brilliant Planet. D.To prove the effectiveness of nature-based solutions. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Choosing a career path is difficult,and the decision never becomes easier as you grow older. 32 Their advice is to choose what you love and make your passion your source of income.But should passion be the main factor when deciding on a career? When someone participates in an activity they love,they're happier.Many link this happiness to increased motivation,resulting in professional growth even during tough times.33 Accordingly,individuals prove that the saying Turn your passion into a job,and the money will follow"can be true. 【高二英语第5页（共9页)】 However,the quote overlooks that people may have multiple passions.For that reason,some choose to pursue their passion outside of work in the hope of not regretting limiting themselves to one love.Another misunderstanding is that one has to master what they're passionate about.While passion pushes you to learn,one can be passionate about dancing but not necessarily good at it. 34 Ultimately,the decision comes down to you.If you fear your passion evolving into a burden, perhaps you can find a job leaving you time to create art after work.Instead,maybe your passion is the necessary fuel that guides you to work your hardest.35There will be uninteresting tasks required to turn your passion into income. 36While getting asked"What are you passionate about?"can be stressful,here is a secret:Try everything.Even if you try a million things and can't find what you love,you'll learn what you don't like.These discoveries can be just as important. A.Passion can push you to spare no efforts. B.If so,remember that it won't always be fun. C.In tough times,your passion will fade away. D.Luckily,some claim to have found the secret. E.Actually,few individuals know what their passion is. F.The love for their passion outweighs negative moments. G.For them,enjoying the activity regardless of skill level is the most important. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分25分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面的短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的 最佳选项。 During my childhood,I always felt confused about my mother's special way of hiring workers for Paak Dang.Unlike other restaurant owners,she never37 people with relevant work experience.Instead,she was willing to give chances to those inexperienced.She38taught them English and basic professional skills,39 their daily work and attended to their personal troubles.

C 细节理解题。根据原文表格中关于“Job Exposure”的定义“A job contains tasks that AI can assist with or perform”（一份工作包含AI可以协助或执行的任务）可知，Job Exposure意味着AI能够处理某项工作中的部分任务，故选C。 22. D 推理判断题。根据原文“Most emerging roles demand advanced technical skills... This creates a serious problem; displaced workers often face barriers preventing them from transitioning into these high-value roles.”（大多数新兴岗位要求高级技术技能……这造成了一个严重的问题；被取代的工人往往面临无法转型进入这些高价值岗位的障碍）可知，虽然工作岗位总量在增加，但失业工人的资质无法满足新岗位的要求，两者并不匹配，故选D。 23. C 推理判断题。根据原文“businesses must prioritize active reskilling and role redesign to enhance human potential”（企业必须优先考虑积极的技能重塑和角色重新设计以提升人类潜力）可知，企业的当务之急是投入资源去培养员工的新能力，以适应AI时代的发展，故选C。 B篇 本文介绍了英国Crich村的共享修复咖啡馆（Share and Repair Café）项目。 24．C细节理解题。根据第二段“This project began five years ago, when the local magazine asked if anyone was interested in coming together as volunteers to make their village become more sustainable and environmentally friendly.(这个项目始于五年前，当时当地杂志询问是否有人有兴趣作为志愿者聚集在一起，使他们的村庄变得更加可持续和环保。)”可知，是当地杂志的志愿者呼吁激发了“共享与修复”项目的启动。故选C。 25．A细节理解题。根据第三段“Getting involved has helped shape a positive mindset, and helped extend my time on the planet. Giving something back is the least I can do.(参与其中帮助我塑造了积极的心态，也延长了我在世上的时光。回馈社区是我至少能做的事。)”可知，参与这个活动给艾伦带来了乐观的生活态度。故选A。 26．B词句猜测题。根据后文“The group also works with a junior school on environmental awareness projects, helping young students learn to mend their connection to the natural world.(该组织还与一所小学合作开展环保意识项目，帮助年轻学生重建他们与自然世界的联系。)”可知，一场摄影比赛鼓励人们在留意自然的同时拍照，由此可知，“cognizant”的意思是“留心的”。故选B。 27．A主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Whether a volunteer or event attendee, the community benefit greatly from being involved with Transition Crich. As we all know, loneliness isn’t reserved for one particular group of society. What makes inclusion initiatives like Transition Crich truly wonderful is their ability to mend the gaps between generations, bringing together people of different ages in ways that might otherwise be hard to achieve.(无论是志愿者还是活动参与者，社区都能从参与Transition Crich中受益匪浅。众所周知，孤独并不是社会某一特定群体的专属。像Transition Crich这样的包容性倡议之所以真正出色，是因为它们能够修补代际之间的差距，以其他方式难以实现的方式将不同年龄的人聚集在一起。)”可知，文章主要讲述了Transition Crich项目修补了代际之间的差距，让人们之间的关系更紧密，所以选项A“修补友谊”适合作为文章标题。故选A。 A 选项「Friends Who Mend」的三大核心亮点 1. 一语双关，完美覆盖全文表层与深层主旨（最核心亮点） 这是 A 选项最出彩、也是其他所有选项都不具备的优势。全文的核心动词mend（修补），在文中有三层递进的含义，A 选项用一个词就全部囊括： 表层含义：修补物品（全文的叙事起点）对应第一段修补裙子、工具，第三段打磨刀具、翻新园艺工具，第四段修补衣物对抗快时尚等所有核心项目内容。 中层含义：修补人心与自我对应第三段 Alan 的例子：他在确诊癌症后，通过参与修补项目，修补了自己的消极心态，重新找到了生活的意义，延长了生命。 深层含义：修补社区联结与代际鸿沟（全文的主旨升华）对应最后一段的核心论点：这个项目最珍贵的价值，是修补了不同年龄群体之间的隔阂，弥合了社区的孤独感，让原本陌生的村民变成了互相帮助的朋友。 这个双关修辞，让标题既点明了项目的具体内容，又精准点出了全文的深层主旨，做到了 “形神兼备”，是高考标题题满分选项的标志性特征。 2. 紧扣全文核心线索，统领所有段落内容 mend是贯穿全文的绝对核心线索，全文没有任何一个段落、任何一个例子脱离了 “修补” 这个主题： 第 1 段：引入修补咖啡馆的核心场景 第 2 段：项目从修补物品起步发展 第 3 段：志愿者通过修补获得心灵治愈 第 4 段：延伸出修补人与自然关系的环保项目 第 5 段：升华到修补社区与代际关系的核心价值 而Friends则精准点出了项目的核心主体 —— 不是冰冷的 “志愿者”“工作人员”，而是社区里互相帮助、彼此温暖的朋友，完美贴合全文温馨、治愈的情感基调。 C篇 本文介绍了Brilliant Planet 公司通过种植藻类吸收二氧化碳，并使用一系列技术手段进行藻类的处理和碳隔离的新举措。 28.B段落大意题。根据第二段最后两句话“The algae is obtained from ... then pumped up ... and misted into .... In the 30 seconds or so ..., leaving hyper-saline(超盐的) algae pieces which can be collected and shallow buried, trapping their carbon for thousands of years.”可知，第二段主要介绍了Brilliant Planet公司利用藻类吸收二氧化碳的过程。 28. D事实细节题。根据第三段第四句“What’s more, you’re not competing with farms or forests.” 可知，Taylor认为在沙漠利用藻类吸收二氧化碳不会占用农地或林地，即不会占用肥沃的土地。 29. A推理判断题。根据El Fanne定位到第五段，由promising/innovative可知，El Fanne赞同该做法。再根据本段最后两句“Nevertheless, she expressed caution. Microalgae ...might damage...lead to...and change habitats,’she said.”可知，El Fanne担心大规模微藻生产可能会对当地生态造成危害，导致过度使用水资源并改变自然栖息地。由此推断，El Fanne认为藻类吸收二氧化碳的方法需改进。 30. A推理判断题。根据a Manhattan Project-type attitude定位到第六段，由前两句中的one company can’t do it all 和We are part of a group可知，Taylor认为单个公司无法完成大规模藻类吸收二氧化碳的计划，故提到“曼哈顿计划式态度”是想强调多方合作的必要性。 七选五 本文是一篇议论文，主要探讨了“是否应该将热爱转化为职业”这一话题，辩证地分析了把热爱当工作的利与弊，并为迷茫的人提供了寻找热爱的建议。 32. D 第一段前两句指出选择职业道路非常困难（difficult），且随着年龄增长也不会变容易，铺垫了一个充满挑战的背景。空缺后的句子出现了代词“Their advice...”。这说明空缺处必须引出提出建议的主体（即某些人）。D选项中的 some（有些人）正好对应下文的Their，且D选项中提到的found the secret与前文提到的职业选择难题形成转折和呼应，逻辑链条为：面临难题→有人声称找到了秘诀→他们的建议是追随热爱。 33. F 第二段主要论述将热爱作为工作的积极面。前一句提到，这种快乐能带来动力，即使在艰难时期（tough times）也能促进职业成长。后一句用Accordingly得出结论：把热爱变成工作确实可行。这中间需要一个论据来支撑为什么在艰难时刻依然能坚持。F选项中的outweighs negative moments（胜过消极时刻）与前文的even during tough times”形成了完美的同义复现和情感递进。逻辑链条为：热爱带来动力→因为热爱能战胜负面时刻→ 因此把热爱当工作是可行的。 34. G第三段讨论的是不把热爱当工作的理由之一，即打破“必须擅长才算热爱”的误解。前一句明确指出：“一个人可能热爱跳舞却不一定要擅长它（not necessarily good at it）”。G选项中的 regardless of skill level”是对前文not necessarily good at it”的直接解释和延伸；同时，G选项开头的For them指代的正是前文中那些“热爱但不一定擅长”的人群。逻辑链条为：热爱不等于擅长 →对他们来说，享受过程比技能更重要。 35. B第四段探讨如果你决定把热爱当作工作的情况。前一句假设：“也许你的热爱是引导你努力工作的必要燃料”。后一句紧接着指出了残酷的现实：“会有无趣的任务（uninteresting tasks）需要完成才能变现”。这说明中间缺少一个表示转折或提醒的过渡句。B选项中的If so紧承上文的假设，而 “it won’t always be fun”则完美引出了下文关于uninteresting tasks的具体阐述。逻辑链条为：假设你把热爱当燃料→如果是这样，记住这并不总是好玩的→因为会有枯燥的变现任务。 36. E 该空位于最后一段的段首，通常起着统领全段或转换话题的作用。后一句提到：“被问到‘你热爱什么？’时可能会感到压力（stressful）”。为什么会感到压力？通常是因为答不上来。 E选项“事实上，很少有人真正知道自己的热爱是什么”揭示了这一普遍现象，正好解释了为什么人们在面对这个问题时会感到焦虑和压力。逻辑链条为：很少有人知道自己热爱什么→所以被问到时才会感到有压力→作者接着给出建议（去尝试一切）。 完形填空 本文是一篇夹叙夹议的短文，主要讲述了作者通过观察母亲独特的用人之道，逐渐理解了包容、多元与商业向善的真谛。 37. D句意：与其他餐馆老板不同，她从不偏爱有相关工作经验的人。章后半句提到“Instead, she was willing to give chances to those inexperienced”（相反，她愿意给那些没有经验的人机会），这与前半句形成了鲜明的对比。因此，这里要表达的是她不像别人那样“偏爱”或“更喜欢”有经验的人。故选D。 38. C句意：她耐心地教他们英语和基本的职业技能，指导他们的日常工作，并关照他们的个人困难。根据语境，面对没有经验的员工，母亲不仅教技能还关心他们的个人困难，这体现了一种充满关怀和耐心的态度。故选C。 39. B句意同上。作为老板和教导者，在教会员工技能后，自然需要对他们的日常工作进行“监督”或“指导”。故选B。 40. A句意：起初，我没能理解她的选择。根据下文提到的“Many people even accused her...”（许多人甚至指责她……）以及后来作者的转变（Gradually, however...），说明作者一开始是不理解母亲的。failed to do sth. 意为“未能做某事”，符合语境。故选A。 41. D句意：许多人甚至指责她浪费商业资源。在世俗的眼光看来，不雇佣熟练工而花费精力去培训新手，往往被视为一种低效或“浪费”资源的行为。故选D。 42. C句意：我终于明白了母亲的意图。随着作者看到员工们的巨大改变，他终于理解了母亲当初那样做的良苦用心和真实目的。故选C。 43. A句意：每当一名员工取得进步时，她脸上纯粹的幸福深深地打动了我。看到自己帮助的人取得进步，母亲脸上流露出的自然是欣慰和“幸福”的笑容。innocence（天真）、exhaustion（疲惫）和 silence（沉默）无法体现出那种因助人而产生的满足感。故选A。 44. D句意：这让我渴望像她一样从事有意义的工作。母亲的工作不仅仅是为了赚钱，而是能改变他人命运、带来温暖，这在作者眼中是极具“意义”和“目标感”的。temporary（暂时的）、routine（常规的）和 tough（艰难的）都无法概括这种精神层面的追求。故选D。 45. A句意：我明白了每个人都值得拥有第二次机会，给成长提供机会带来无尽的温暖。这是作者在耳濡目染下形成的价值观。deserves（值得/应得）最能体现这种对他人的尊重与包容。故选A。 46. B句意同上。前文提到员工们取得了进步（made progress），给予他们机会正是为了促进他们的个人“成长”。correction（纠正）、freedom（自由）和 recovery（恢复）虽然也是名词，但不如growth贴切地对应了从无到有、变得更好的过程。故选B。 47. C句意：作为一个生活在新加坡的孩子，我很容易就习惯了文化差异。上文提到了作者是“Singaporean child living in Thailand”（生活在泰国的新加坡孩子），跨越国界的生活经历让他习惯的是“文化”上的差异。故选C。 48. B句意：与员工和顾客交流帮助我融入了当地文化，并理解了多元之美。通过与当地人的深入互动，作者不再是一个旁观者，而是真正成为了其中的一部分，即“融入”了当地文化。look into（调查）、make up（编造/组成）和 build up（建立）都不如 fit into 准确。故选B。 49. A句意：我也很珍视和所有员工一起度过的快乐旅行。后文明确提到了enjoyed quiet natural scenery，这显然是在描述一次外出游玩的经历，因此trips最为恰当。故选A。 50. D句意：这段经历教会了我社群归属感与友谊的真谛。大家像真正的家人一样共享美食、欣赏风景，这种紧密的人际连接和集体温暖，正是community（社群/共同体/归属感）的含义。 故选D。 51. B句意：我真心相信，一个成功的企业不仅仅是为了利润。这是文章主旨的升华。传统观念认为做生意就是为了赚钱（profits），但作者认为企业更应用机会和温暖照亮他人的生活。goods（商品）、bond（纽带）和 credit（信用/信贷）都不是商业活动最核心的对立面。 故选B。 语法填空 本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲述了中国国家国际发展合作署发布的关于对外援助“小而美”项目和绿色发展援助的报告，介绍了相关成果及未来规划。 52. criteria 53. have taken 54. an 55. comprehensive 56. What 57. total(l)ing 58. to 59. closely 60. which 61. targeted 52. criteria词性转换/名词复数 解析：题干询问开展这些援助项目的核心标准。criterion（标准）为可数名词，此处表泛指，用复数形式criteria。 53. have taken 时态（现在完成时） 解析：时间状语over the years（多年来）为现在完成时标志，强调动作从过去持续到现在；主语projects为复数，故填have taken。 54. an 冠词 解析：空后important priority为可数名词单数，表泛指“一项重要优先事项”；important以元音音素开头，用不定冠词an。 55. comprehensive 词性转换（形容词） 解析：修饰名词benefits（效益），需用形容词；comprehend（理解）→comprehensive（全面的），表“综合效益”。 56. What 连词（主语从句） 解析：引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代“发布的报告内容”，故填What（……的事物）。 57. totaling 非谓语（现在分词） 解析：projects与total（总计）为主动关系，用现在分词作后置定语，表“总计300亿元的援助项目”，故填totaling。 58. to 介词（固定搭配） 解析：固定搭配range from...to...（从……到……），表援助范围从清洁能源到环境保护，故填to。 59. closely 词性转换（副词） 解析：修饰动词tailors（定制），需用副词；close（紧密的）→closely（密切地），表“密切定制援助方案”。 60. which 定语从句（关系代词） 解析：先行词为projects（物），非限制性定语从句中缺主语，用关系代词which引导。 61. targeted 词性转换（形容词） 解析：修饰名词cooperation initiatives（合作举措），需用形容词；target（目标）→targeted（有针对性的），表“有针对性的合作举措”。 词句运用及背诵考查 第一节 根据汉语提示或所给单词，利用词汇的正确形式填空 1.wrinkles 2.Dragging 3.disabilities 4.privilege 5.accused 6.bouncing 7.applauding 8.mixture 9.deserving 10.oriented 第二节 结合语境写出黑体词(组)在语境中的确切含义 1. 新闻报道 2. 拨款 3. 阻止 4. 补足 5. 丧失能力的 6. 感染 7. 聚集，集合 8. 起步前的优势 9. 蜿蜒；曲折前行 10. 转发；转播 11. 风格 12.欺骗 第三节 读背句子默写 1.Noticing the little cat stuck in the tree, it dawned on him that there was a ladder nearby to help it get down safely. 2.As a volunteer with fluent spoken English, I was selected to serve foreign guests and show them around campus, during which I shared our school’s history with them. 第四节 课文段落默写 （略） 书面表达 Good morning, everyone. I’d like to share my experience of volunteering in the city park. Last weekend, I worked with other volunteers to collect rubbish, wipe benches and water the flowers. Also, we reminded visitors to behave politely and care for green plants. From this activity, I gained a strong sense of achievement. It taught me responsibility, teamwork and love for nature. Helping others made me happy and fulfilled. I strongly encourage you to take part in such activities. Let’s take action and join volunteer work. Small acts can create a better world. Thank you! 读后续写 Without hesitation, I began to revise our strategy completely. We decided to abandon the rigid PPT and strict regulations. Instead, we aimed to let students experience the charm of photography firsthand. My teammates and I selected our most eye-catching photos—vivid images of campus life—and set up an interactive “photo corner.” We even brought spare cameras for beginners to try out. Our goal shifted from merely displaying professionalism to offering a sweet “taste” of the joy of photography. The next day, our new-style recruitment began. As soon as the colorful photo corner was set up, curious students were instantly drawn in. Attracted by the vivid pictures, they couldn’t wait to pick up the cameras and capture their own unique angles. Laughter and excitement filled the air as we shared simple tips. Our booth soon became a highlight of the fair, with many students eagerly signing up. I finally realized that true attraction comes not from showing off, but from sharing the beauty and passion we hold with others. 听力材料 Text 1（交通方式） M: I can’t believe I missed the bus. Now I’m going to be late for work. W: So sorry! The subway station is far away. Is there a taxi or rideshare nearby? Might be worth it just this once. M: Yeah, you’re right. I’ll check the app. Thanks. Text 2（预留位置） M: Hey, are you going to the study group tonight? We’re meeting in the student hall at seven. W: I completely forgot. I’ve been at the health center all afternoon. M: Is everything okay? W: Yeah, just a routine checkup. Please save me a seat. Text 3（接孩子） M: Sara, could you pick up the children? I still have a training meeting. W: OK, but I'm having a budget review with the manager and it will be done at 4:30. M: Good! And then remember to prepare dinner. Text 4（增加订单） W: Hi, I'm calling to confirm the food order for Friday’s meeting. M: We have the vegetarian option, the chicken, and the mixed salad. W: Yes. Actually, we need to increase the vegetarian food to forty servings. We had a few more people register this morning. M: No problem. Would you like to add any drinks? Text 5（准备礼物） W: Ethan, today is Mother’s Day. We need to do something meaningful for Mum. M: Right. We made her a card and a bunch of carnations last year. What’s your plan this year? W: I want to make a chocolate cake. Let’s go to the store for the ingredients. Text 6 动物园求助 M: Excuse me! I hate to bother you, but I’m in a bit of a mess. My wife and daughter went to see the pet pigs just now, but I can’t find them now. Worse still, my phone died completely. W: Oh, that sounds stressful. Here, use mine. Don’t panic—they probably just got distracted by other animals. M: Thank you so much! I’ve been waiting on the path for ages. W: It’s fine. Stay calm, you’ll find them soon. Text 7 参加颁奖典礼（急救） M: Oh, it’s a bit tight. Do I really need to wear this tie? W: Yes, you do. Many officers and school leaders will be there. I’m truly amazed you stayed calm in that sudden emergency. How did you do that exactly? M: Jack was turning blue and fell off the chair in the classroom, and no one else reacted fast enough. I used an emergency skill to help him get rid of what was stuck in his throat. W: And that’s why they’re giving you an award. But honestly, I’m just proud you didn’t freeze. M: I just followed what you’ve always taught me to help people in need. W: You truly deserve it. Hurry up. Your dad has prepared the car, and we’ll head out for the ceremony soon. Text 8 去新西兰看几维鸟 W: I’m so excited for my family’s trip to New Zealand this summer! I really want to see a kiwi bird. Any tips? M: If you just want to see one, zoos like Wellington Zoo have them. For a closer look, Willowbank is great. But if you’re adventurous and want to spot one in the wild, you should try Stewart Island. W: Wow, that’s super helpful! M: Actually, I’m heading back home then. I could go with you. I would be very interested in being your guide! My dad always says he spends his life perfecting the art of baking the best meat pie, and I’d love for you to try some at the restaurant where he works. W: Really? That would be fantastic! Text 9 志愿者保护野生动物 W: Hi Grant, tell us how you got into wildlife conservation? M: I started volunteering in Thailand. There weren’t laws back then that protected elephants. So I volunteered with the Elephant Conservation Centre in Chiang Mai. I spent six months helping clean the wounds of the injured elephants and nursing them back to health. W: What was the biggest struggle? M: It was getting people to care about wildlife instead of just focusing on helping humans. I explained that while many help people, few focus on animals that can’t speak for themselves. This was more about getting people to understand my stand. As the saying goes, “Old dogs can’t learn new tricks”. But I refused to stop, and kept pushing for more people to volunteer . W: What are your hopes for the future of wildlife conservation? M: I hope more volunteers will rise up. I hope our school children can be given 30 minutes a week to learn about wildlife and the environment as part of their curriculum. W: You are nearly 70 years old, why do you keep going? M: Yeah, in two months. As long as I can walk, I will choose to live a meaningful life. Text 10 未来职业 M: Good morning, everyone. Today I want to share my dream career: working in artificial intelligence agriculture. I hope to develop smart systems that can monitor crops, predict weather changes, and help farmers grow food more efficiently. I grew up in a small farming village, and I saw how hard traditional farming is. Last year, our village suffered a severe drought and my parents often did the watering at night without much sleep. Seeing their hardship, I made up my mind to learn AI agriculture. With AI, we can solve problems like water waste and low harvests, which will feed more people in the future. To prepare for this career, I am studying computer science and biology hard. I also joined a school club that designs simple sensors for plant monitoring. Last month, our team built a simple device that tells us when soil needs water. It can help farmers take better care of crops with less time and effort. I believe this career will make a real difference in the world. Thank you. 【高二英语参考答案 第 1 页 （共 6 页）】 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
