B At 16, Benjamin Davis, a sophomore at Bishop Feehan High School in Massachusetts, has invented a revolutionary desktop system that recycles plastic bottles and 3D printing waste into high-quality 3D printing filament (塑料丝). His groundbreaking work won him first place at the 2025 International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF) and the $75,000 Regeneron Young Scientist Award, bringing him widespread recognition and increasing attention from scientific communities around the world. Benjamin’s inspiration struck when he noticed massive amounts of plastic waste piling up in his school’s art room. As he watched these useless materials being thrown away each day, he felt deeply concerned about the growing environmental damage caused by plastic pollution. Determined to find a practical solution, he began to research ways to change waste into valuable resources. Over 18 months, he worked patiently in his garage, researching, designing, and constructing different models until he finally created a small, and advanced machine. His device can shred plastic waste, melt it, and form it into smooth and consistent 3D printing filament in a single continuous process. Compared with traditional industrial recycling machines, his design uses 70% less energy and produces materials of higher quality. Schools and creative spaces across the globe have already expressed strong interest in his invention, and several institutions have requested detailed prototypes for further testing. At first, few were quick to credit someone of his age with the ability to tackle such a complex technical undertaking. Teachers and peers questioned whether his small machine could work steadily and meet real-world standards. However, Benjamin never lost confidence. He tested more than 50 versions, stayed up late making improvements, and carefully recorded each result until his device performed perfectly. Benjamin now plans to study mechanical engineering at MIT. He hopes his experience will encourage more young people to care about the environment and take practical action to solve real problems. 24. What inspired Benjamin to create the recycling machine? A. His enthusiasm for machinery. B. A grand award from a competition. C. The global recognition and attention. D. The plastic waste problem in his school. 25. What is an advantage of Benjamin’s machine according to the text? A. It’s user-friendly. B. It’s cost-effective. C. It’s energy-efficient. D. It’s high-productive. 26. Which words can best describe Benjamin Davis? A. Creative and committed. B. Kind and responsible. C. Hard-working and humble. D. Insistent and generous. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Student’s MIT Dream. B. The Development of 3D Printing. C. The Future Belonging to the Young. D. A Teen Turning Waste into Treasure. C I’m Kate. Like many people in the UK, I grew up with a very narrow understanding of health. If I felt anxious or tired, I just kept going. If I had a headache, I took painkillers. There was very little thought given to why symptoms appeared or how to live in a way that might prevent them from happening. It wasn’t until my early thirties, while working in a high-stress advertising job, that everything caught up with me. I was completely burnt out. One of the most alarming symptoms I was experiencing at the time was unusual heartbeats — loud uneven throbs (跳动) that shook my chest every few minutes. I went to the hospital and was told doctors could do nothing, except to keep an eye on it in case it caused problems later in life. There was no mention of emotional tension. No questions about how I was dealing with stress. That was the moment I turned to acupuncture (针灸). I didn’t know much about it, but something about it felt right. And that first treatment marked the beginning of a deep and lasting change. Through acupuncture treatments, I found a kind of calm I hadn’t experienced in years. My mind cleared, my body felt stronger, and those frightening heartbeats became less and less noticeable. I had discovered a whole new way of seeing health and life. That experience sparked my interest. I began reading everything I could about acupuncture: not just the practical benefits, but the basic philosophy. I discovered that Chinese medicine is more of a way of understanding ourselves and the world. It teaches that our health isn’t something to hand over to someone else to fix. It’s something to respect and tend to every day, through our food, our emotional lives, our ability to respond to stress, and our relationship with nature and the seasons. 28. How did Kate treat health issues early on? A. Ignoring the root causes. B. Taking painkillers regularly. C. Stopping work when feeling tired. D. Keeping a healthy lifestyle. 29. What made Kate turn to acupuncture? A. Her heartbeats becoming more frequent. B. Doctors’ advice to keep an eye on it. C. Her high-stress advertising job. D. Doctors’ failure to address her stress. 30. What happened to Kate after her first acupuncture? A. She lost trust in doctors. B. She loved reading acupuncture books. C. She experienced inner peace. D. Her heartbeats returned to normal. 31. What does Kate think of Chinese medicine? A. It tries to reveal mental factors. B. It offers a new way to understand life. C. It works better than Western medicine. D. It requires daily food control. D Correcting the gigabytes (千兆字节) of digital misinformation that circulate at high speed online is a never-ending task. YouTube removed more than half a million channels last year for broadcasting misinformation. The powerful fact-checking organizations that try to keep the Internet honest face more claims than they can handle. How should they prioritize? Checkers came up with a new approach: forecasting which claims are most dangerous and thus which most deserve to be put under the microscope. Researchers from the University of Westminster developed a classifying system to sort dangerous misinformation from everyday nonsense. One test of a false claim is whether enough people will believe it so that it can cause any harm. To swing an election with misinformation, you need to persuade many people; to fool someone with fake medicine you need to convince only one. Another test is whether those believing a false claim have the capacity to act on it. Some people may be misled that Wi-Fi signals can kill plants, for example, but are unlikely to change their behaviour. The researchers estimated that, of the false claims in their sample, 57% were unlikely to contribute to any specific real-world effect. Of the remaining, potentially consequential misinformation, the checkers considered whether the consequence would be “direct” — such as persuading people to buy certain kind of goods, or “cumulative”, contributing to a false narrative about so-called success science, say. The claims were roughly evenly divided. “Cumulative” harm is harder to assess in a short time, says Peter Cunliffe Jones of the University of Westminster, but large data sets make it possible to see how often a claim is repeated, and thus when a narrative is forming. Time devoted to selecting which false claims to check is probably well spent. It takes five minutes to sort a claim, whereas carrying out a thorough check takes five to six hours. The fact-checking world needs to get more systematic in its approach, says Mr. Cunliffe Jones. “If this community is going to learn anything from this ... it’s that data is the future.” 32. What is the main challenge fact-checking organizations meet? A. Lack of professional fact-checkers. B. Difficulty in accessing reliable data. C. Resistance from social media platforms. D. The overwhelming amount of information. 33. In which case may a false claim be classified into “most dangerous”? A. It targets ordinary people. B. It brings about an action. C. It disguises itself with science. D. It spreads on many social media. 34. What is the closest in meaning with the underlined word “cumulative” in paragraph 4? A. Equal. B. Complete. C. Gradual. D. Instant. 35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. It’s up to data to keep the Internet honest. B. Most false claims require thorough checks. C. It wastes too much to classify misinformation. D. Selecting matters more than thorough checks. 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。 When we think of intellectual property (IP) (知识产权), we often associate it with complex laws that may not seem directly relevant to us. ____36____.

It was more than just a park; it was our secret playground and a peaceful corner full of joy. Every afternoon after class, my friends and I would run there happily, laughing and chatting as if we had no worries at all. The park was always quiet and tidy. I enjoyed the fresh air, green trees and beautiful flowers there. But I didn’t know when things started to get worse there. Rubbish was everywhere, especially around the rubbish bins. Plastic bags, bottles and food waste made the park dirty. Every time I saw that, I felt sad and helpless. One morning, on my way to school, I saw the park messier than ever. I felt I had to do something. During the break, I talked with my three best friends, Lewis, Stephen and Alice, about it. “The park is so dirty now,” I said sadly. “I really want to clean it up this weekend. Would you like to join me?” Stephen, one of my friends, frowned and looked a little worried. “I’d love to help, but I’m afraid it won’t make much difference. Some people will just litter again soon,” he said in a low voice. He was not really against the plan, but he was not confident enough. Hearing that, I looked at him seriously and said, “Even small actions can help. If we don’t do anything, the park will only get dirtier. Maybe our work can encourage others to stop littering too.” Lewis nodded and said, “I believe people will notice our effort. We can also put up posters to remind everyone to protect the park.” Alice added gently, “It’s our park. If we don’t take care of it, no one else will.” Stephen thought for a while and finally nodded firmly. “You’re right. Let’s do it together. I’ll try my best.” To my joy, he completely changed his mind and became ready to take action with us. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 We began to make plans. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Saturday, we arrived on time and started right away. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年下学期阶段考试（一） 高三英语试卷 满分150分。考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上，并认真核准条形码上的准考证号、姓名、考场号、座位号，在规定的位置贴好条形码。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Why does the man lose points?

What is the main argument against the “melting pot” metaphor? A. It is scientifically inaccurate. B. It implies forced assimilation. C. It is historically outdated. 7. What alternative metaphor does the woman prefer? A. A tapestry. B. A mosaic. C. A salad bowl. 【答案】6. B 7. B 【解析】 【原文】W: I’ve never liked the “melting pot” idea for multicultural societies. It suggests everyone should blend into one homogeneous culture, losing their distinctness. M: What’s wrong with aiming for unity? W: True unity shouldn’t require erasure. The “melting pot” historically often meant conforming to a dominant Anglo-Protestant norm in the US. A better metaphor is a “mosaic” or “tapestry” — where individual cultural pieces remain distinct but together create a beautiful, stronger whole. Diversity is the strength, not an ingredient to be melted away. M: So you value integration that preserves unique identities over assimilation? W: Exactly. Assimilation is about subtraction; integration is about addition and mutual enrichment. 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 8. Who does the man admire most? A. Marie Curie. B. Isaac Newton. C.

His groundbreaking work won him first place at the 2025 International Science & Engineering Fair (ISEF) and the $75,000 Regeneron Young Scientist Award, bringing him widespread recognition and increasing attention from scientific communities around the world. Benjamin’s inspiration struck when he noticed massive amounts of plastic waste piling up in his school’s art room. As he watched these useless materials being thrown away each day, he felt deeply concerned about the growing environmental damage caused by plastic pollution. Determined to find a practical solution, he began to research ways to change waste into valuable resources. Over 18 months, he worked patiently in his garage, researching, designing, and constructing different models until he finally created a small, and advanced machine. His device can shred plastic waste, melt it, and form it into smooth and consistent 3D printing filament in a single continuous process. Compared with traditional industrial recycling machines, his design uses 70% less energy and produces materials of higher quality. Schools and creative spaces across the globe have already expressed strong interest in his invention, and several institutions have requested detailed prototypes for further testing. At first, few were quick to credit someone of his age with the ability to tackle such a complex technical undertaking. Teachers and peers questioned whether his small machine could work steadily and meet real-world standards. However, Benjamin never lost confidence. He tested more than 50 versions, stayed up late making improvements, and carefully recorded each result until his device performed perfectly. Benjamin now plans to study mechanical engineering at MIT. He hopes his experience will encourage more young people to care about the environment and take practical action to solve real problems. 24. What inspired Benjamin to create the recycling machine? A. His enthusiasm for machinery. B. A grand award from a competition. C. The global recognition and attention. D. The plastic waste problem in his school. 25. What is an advantage of Benjamin’s machine according to the text? A. It’s user-friendly. B. It’s cost-effective. C. It’s energy-efficient. D. It’s high-productive. 26. Which words can best describe Benjamin Davis? A. Creative and committed. B. Kind and responsible. C. Hard-working and humble. D. Insistent and generous. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Student’s MIT Dream. B. The Development of 3D Printing. C. The Future Belonging to the Young. D. A Teen Turning Waste into Treasure. 【答案】24. D 25.

Like many people in the UK, I grew up with a very narrow understanding of health. If I felt anxious or tired, I just kept going. If I had a headache, I took painkillers. There was very little thought given to why symptoms appeared or how to live in a way that might prevent them from happening. It wasn’t until my early thirties, while working in a high-stress advertising job, that everything caught up with me. I was completely burnt out. One of the most alarming symptoms I was experiencing at the time was unusual heartbeats — loud uneven throbs (跳动) that shook my chest every few minutes. I went to the hospital and was told doctors could do nothing, except to keep an eye on it in case it caused problems later in life. There was no mention of emotional tension. No questions about how I was dealing with stress. That was the moment I turned to acupuncture (针灸). I didn’t know much about it, but something about it felt right. And that first treatment marked the beginning of a deep and lasting change. Through acupuncture treatments, I found a kind of calm I hadn’t experienced in years. My mind cleared, my body felt stronger, and those frightening heartbeats became less and less noticeable. I had discovered a whole new way of seeing health and life. That experience sparked my interest. I began reading everything I could about acupuncture: not just the practical benefits, but the basic philosophy. I discovered that Chinese medicine is more of a way of understanding ourselves and the world. It teaches that our health isn’t something to hand over to someone else to fix. It’s something to respect and tend to every day, through our food, our emotional lives, our ability to respond to stress, and our relationship with nature and the seasons. 28. How did Kate treat health issues early on? A. Ignoring the root causes. B. Taking painkillers regularly. C. Stopping work when feeling tired. D. Keeping a healthy lifestyle. 29. What made Kate turn to acupuncture? A. Her heartbeats becoming more frequent. B. Doctors’ advice to keep an eye on it. C. Her high-stress advertising job. D. Doctors’ failure to address her stress. 30. What happened to Kate after her first acupuncture? A. She lost trust in doctors. B. She loved reading acupuncture books. C. She experienced inner peace. D. Her heartbeats returned to normal. 31. What does Kate think of Chinese medicine? A. It tries to reveal mental factors. B. It offers a new way to understand life. C. It works better than Western medicine. D. It requires daily food control. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了凯特早期忽视健康问题，后因压力转向针灸并发现新健康观的故事。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“If I felt anxious or tired, I just kept going. If I had a headache, I took painkillers. There was very little thought given to why symptoms appeared or how to live in a way that might prevent them from happening.(如果我感到焦虑或疲惫，我就继续坚持下去。如果我头痛，我就吃止痛药。我很少去思考这些症状为何出现，或者如何以一种可能防止症状出现的方式生活。)”可知，凯特早期对待健康问题的方式是忽略根本原因。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I went to the hospital and was told doctors could do nothing, except to keep an eye on it in case it caused problems later in life. There was no mention of emotional tension. No questions about how I was dealing with stress. That was the moment I turned to acupuncture (针灸).(我去了医院，医生告诉我他们无能为力，只能密切关注，以防它日后引发问题。没有提到情绪紧张。没有问我如何应对压力。就在那一刻，我转向了针灸。)”可知，医生没有解决她的压力问题，这使得凯特转向针灸。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“And that first treatment marked the beginning of a deep and lasting change. Through acupuncture treatments, I found a kind of calm I hadn’t experienced in years. My mind cleared, my body felt stronger, and those frightening heartbeats became less and less noticeable.(第一次治疗标志着深刻而持久的变化的开始。通过针灸治疗，我找到了一种多年来未曾体验过的平静。我的头脑清醒了，身体感觉更强壮了，那些可怕的心跳变得越来越不明显了。)”可知，凯特第一次针灸后，她体验到了内心的平静。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I discovered that Chinese medicine is more of a way of understanding ourselves and the world. It teaches that our health isn’t something to hand over to someone else to fix. It’s something to respect and tend to every day, through our food, our emotional lives, our ability to respond to stress, and our relationship with nature and the seasons.(我发现中医更多的是一种理解我们自己和世界的方式。它教导我们，健康不是交给别人去修复的东西。它是每天都要尊重和关注的东西，通过我们的食物、我们的情感生活、我们应对压力的能力，以及我们与自然和季节的关系。)”可知，凯特认为中医提供了一种理解生活的新方式。故选B。 D Correcting the gigabytes (千兆字节) of digital misinformation that circulate at high speed online is a never-ending task. YouTube removed more than half a million channels last year for broadcasting misinformation. The powerful fact-checking organizations that try to keep the Internet honest face more claims than they can handle. How should they prioritize? Checkers came up with a new approach: forecasting which claims are most dangerous and thus which most deserve to be put under the microscope. Researchers from the University of Westminster developed a classifying system to sort dangerous misinformation from everyday nonsense. One test of a false claim is whether enough people will believe it so that it can cause any harm. To swing an election with misinformation, you need to persuade many people; to fool someone with fake medicine you need to convince only one. Another test is whether those believing a false claim have the capacity to act on it. Some people may be misled that Wi-Fi signals can kill plants, for example, but are unlikely to change their behaviour. The researchers estimated that, of the false claims in their sample, 57% were unlikely to contribute to any specific real-world effect. Of the remaining, potentially consequential misinformation, the checkers considered whether the consequence would be “direct” — such as persuading people to buy certain kind of goods, or “cumulative”, contributing to a false narrative about so-called success science, say. The claims were roughly evenly divided. “Cumulative” harm is harder to assess in a short time, says Peter Cunliffe Jones of the University of Westminster, but large data sets make it possible to see how often a claim is repeated, and thus when a narrative is forming. Time devoted to selecting which false claims to check is probably well spent. It takes five minutes to sort a claim, whereas carrying out a thorough check takes five to six hours. The fact-checking world needs to get more systematic in its approach, says Mr. Cunliffe Jones. “If this community is going to learn anything from this ... it’s that data is the future.” 32. What is the main challenge fact-checking organizations meet? A. Lack of professional fact-checkers. B. Difficulty in accessing reliable data. C. Resistance from social media platforms. D. The overwhelming amount of information. 33. In which case may a false claim be classified into “most dangerous”? A. It targets ordinary people. B. It brings about an action. C. It disguises itself with science. D. It spreads on many social media. 34. What is the closest in meaning with the underlined word “cumulative” in paragraph 4? A. Equal. B. Complete. C. Gradual. D. Instant. 35. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. It’s up to data to keep the Internet honest. B. Most false claims require thorough checks. C. It wastes too much to classify misinformation. D. Selecting matters more than thorough checks. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了事实核查组织面对网络海量虚假信息的新策略——利用大数据与分类模型，优先筛出“最危险”的谣言。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段句子“The powerful fact-checking organizations that try to keep the Internet honest face more claims than they can handle.(试图维护互联网真实性的强大事实核查组织面临的虚假言论数量超出了它们的处理能力。)”可知，核查机构面临的主要挑战是信息数量过于庞大。故选D项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的句子“One test of a false claim is whether enough people will believe it so that it can cause any harm.(检验虚假言论的一个标准是，是否有足够多的人相信它，以至于它会造成任何伤害。)”和“Another test is whether those believing a false claim have the capacity to act on it.(另一个测试是那些相信虚假言论的人是否有能力对此采取行动。)”可知，只有当虚假言论“被足够多的人相信并付诸行动”时，才会被视为最危险；即“带来实际行动”是关键标准。故选B项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段句子“Of the remaining, potentially consequential misinformation, the checkers considered whether the consequence would be “direct” — such as persuading people to buy certain kind of goods, or “cumulative”, contributing to a false narrative about so-called success science, say.(核查人员对剩下的、可能造成影响的不实信息进行了考量：影响是‘直接的’——比如说服人们购买某类商品；还是‘cumulative’——助推形成关于所谓成功学的错误说法。)”可知，“cumulative”与“direct”并列，二者应该是对立关系，所以，此处指的是虚假叙事“逐渐累积”形成错误观念，而非瞬间或一次性影响，因此“cumulative”意为“逐步的、累积的”，与gradual意义一致。故选C项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。末段强调“data is the future(数据是未来)”，并指出“The fact-checking world needs to get more systematic in its approach(事实核查世界需要在方法上更加系统化)”“Time devoted to selecting which false claims to check is probably well spent.(把时间花在选择哪些虚假言论需要检查上可能是值得的。)”，暗示未来需要依靠数据来系统维护网络诚信。故选A项。 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。 When we think of intellectual property (IP) (知识产权), we often associate it with complex laws that may not seem directly relevant to us. ____36____.

It was more than just a park; it was our secret playground and a peaceful corner full of joy. Every afternoon after class, my friends and I would run there happily, laughing and chatting as if we had no worries at all. The park was always quiet and tidy. I enjoyed the fresh air, green trees and beautiful flowers there. But I didn’t know when things started to get worse there. Rubbish was everywhere, especially around the rubbish bins. Plastic bags, bottles and food waste made the park dirty. Every time I saw that, I felt sad and helpless. One morning, on my way to school, I saw the park messier than ever. I felt I had to do something. During the break, I talked with my three best friends, Lewis, Stephen and Alice, about it. “The park is so dirty now,” I said sadly. “I really want to clean it up this weekend. Would you like to join me?” Stephen, one of my friends, frowned and looked a little worried. “I’d love to help, but I’m afraid it won’t make much difference. Some people will just litter again soon,” he said in a low voice. He was not really against the plan, but he was not confident enough. Hearing that, I looked at him seriously and said, “Even small actions can help. If we don’t do anything, the park will only get dirtier. Maybe our work can encourage others to stop littering too.” Lewis nodded and said, “I believe people will notice our effort. We can also put up posters to remind everyone to protect the park.” Alice added gently, “It’s our park. If we don’t take care of it, no one else will.” Stephen thought for a while and finally nodded firmly. “You’re right. Let’s do it together. I’ll try my best.” To my joy, he completely changed his mind and became ready to take action with us. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 We began to make plans. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Saturday, we arrived on time and started right away. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： We began to make plans. Stephen said he would bring gloves and large trash bags from home because his mom always kept many. Lewis offered to make some simple posters. “I’ll draw big eyes on them and include some cautionary phrases,” he said. Alice said she would bring extra masks and some water for us. We also decided to make a detailed list to make sure nothing important was forgotten. I suggested we meet at 8 o’clock on Saturday morning at the park gate. Everyone agreed, feeling excited about what we were going to do. On Saturday, we arrived on time and started right away. Stephen and I put on gloves and began picking up rubbish. Lewis tied the bags when they were half full and then hung his posters on trees. Alice talked to people kindly and reminded them not to litter. By noon, the park was clean and bright. Looking at the tidy park, we felt proud and happy. We not only cleaned the park but also helped some people understand the importance of caring for the park. That day, I learned that if everyone does a little, together we can make our world a much better place. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者及朋友清理公园为线索展开。作者中学时学校附近的小公园是欢乐之地，但后来垃圾遍地。作者看到后决定清理，起初朋友担心效果不佳，经劝说后大家达成共识，决定一起行动保护公园。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“我们开始制定计划。”可知，第一段可以描写大家围绕清理公园开始制定计划，包括各自分工准备物品，还确定集合时间和地点，大家都满怀期待。 ②由第二段句首内容“周六那天，我们准时到达，随即立刻开始行动。”可知，第二段可以描写周六大家按计划行动，各自开展工作，最后公园变得干净明亮，大家感到自豪和开心，并升华主旨：每个人都付出一点，世界会更美好。 2.续写线索：开始制定计划——全员分工——逐项落实志愿所需物资物料——周末准时集结——分组协作——见证公园焕新模样感悟团结公益价值 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①戴手套：put on gloves/wear gloves/slip on gloves ②捡垃圾：pick up rubbish/collect litter/gather trash ③系紧垃圾袋：tie the bags/fasten the bags/secure the bags 情绪类 ①兴奋：excited/thrilled/full of excitement ②自豪：feel proud/be filled with pride 【点睛】【高分句型1】Lewis tied the bags when they were half full and then hung his posters on trees.

IT suggests everyone should blend into one homogeneous culture, losing their distinctness. What's wrong with aiming for unity? True unity shouldn't require eraser.

A Better metaphor is a mosaic or tapestry, where individual cultural pieces remain distinct, but together create a beautiful, stronger hole. Diversity is the strength, not an ingredient to be melted away. So you value integration that preserves unique identities over a simulation.
