I told him that in my opinion, money and gifts should never be used to win children over or to motivate them to succeed. These parents give the excuse that they do it because they donˈt want their kids to experience failure in school. They are trying to prevent their kids from being disappointed. However, I think lifeˈs lessons are learned best by disappointment and failure. These parents fail to grasp the importance of exposing their kids to failure.

Apparently, I am not alone. A survey found that approximately 67% of U. S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAIˈs CEO Sam Altman replied, "Tens of millions of dollars well spent—you never know." In reality, of course, AI chatbots do not appreciate politeness; they lack consciousness, feelings or social needs. From a purely utilitarian(功利主义的) standpoint, all those pleases and thank-yous are just flushing money down the toilet. Still, there may be value that isnˈt immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health. Whatˈs true of gratitude is also true of kindness and generosity more generally. Experiments at UC Riverside found that performing "five small acts of kindness per week" produced steady increases in happiness. This idea isnˈt new. The medieval thinker Maimonides wrote that "It is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person." He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit. So perhaps all of our pleases and thank-yous to AI have value, even if they cost OpenAI millions of dollars annually. Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy(礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a little extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isnˈt the AI at all, but ourselves. 24.How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1? A. By quoting an expert. B. By telling a story. C. By presenting a phenomenon. D. By defining a concept. 25.What value of gratitude does the experiment in paragraph 3 show? A. It strengthens our bodies and minds. B. It reduces daily stress levels. C. It improves memory and creativity. D. It deepens social relationship. 26.Which of the following would Maimonides most likely approve of? A. Giving gifts to friends on birthdays. B. Making a large donation to a charity. C. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. D. Volunteering weekly at a community kitchen. 27.What message does the author mainly convey in the text? A. Courtesy to AI saves electricity bills. B. AI improves the quality of human life. C. Politeness benefits humans rather than AI. D. AI learns empathy from human behavior. 【答案】C、A、D、C 【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出多数美国用户会礼貌地与AI交流，而从功利角度看这种行为并无意义。但相关实验和思想家观点表明，向AI表达感谢等礼貌行为能培养人的感恩、善意等积极习惯，提升身心状态，最终受益者其实是人类自身。 1.  【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出多数美国用户会礼貌地与AI交流，而从功利角度看这种行为并无意义。但相关实验和思想家观点表明，向AI表达感谢等礼貌行为能培养人的感恩、善意等积极习惯，提升身心状态，最终受益者其实是人类自身。 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I often catch myself asking my questions to AI chatbots with a ‘pleaseˈ and a ‘thank youˈ. Apparently, I am not alone. A survey found that approximately 67% of U.S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines.”可知，作者先提及自己对AI礼貌的行为，再用调查数据说明多数美国AI用户都有此做法，通过呈现这一普遍现象引出文章话题。 2.  细节理解题。根据第三段中的“After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health.”可知，实验表明表达感恩的一组人幸福感更高、内心更强大、身体健康状况也更好，即感恩能从身心两方面给人带来积极影响。 3.  推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Maimonides wrote that ‘It is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person.ˈ He believed that regular acts of goodness... make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit.”可知，Maimonides认同经常性的小善举，而非一次性的大额付出。每周在社区厨房做志愿属于规律的善意行为，符合其观点。 4.  主旨大意题。根据全文最后一句“Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isnˈt the AI at all, but ourselves.”以及前文对感恩实验、善意行为的论述可知，作者的核心观点是：人类对AI表现出的礼貌与感恩，受益者并非没有意识的AI，而是人类自身。 C Moving to a new city can be an anxious experience. Itˈs often difficult to develop a sense of connection when youˈre unfamiliar with a placeˈs traditions and history. Now that Iˈm a new resident of Pittsburg, one way Iˈve found to engage with my new environment is through the art murals(壁画) found around town. Whenever I take a walk around the Old Town area, I stop to admire the mural at Heritage Park Plaza (HPP). As a newcomer, I find myself identifying with one section of the mural in particular. It shows a newly arrived family with their belongings, transitioning(过渡) into a photograph of a wedding. To me, this symbolizes establishing general roots—something I hope to do here in Pittsburg as well. Another mural I enjoy is located on the side of the Ace Hardware building on Railroad Avenue. This colorful piece honors the indigenous heritage(土著遗产) of the Pittsburg area, specifically the Bay Miwok people who lived here long before European settlers arrived. The mural acknowledges the lives of these indigenous groups, whose cultures were reshaped by newcomers. Today, these cultures coexist, a reality the mural beautifully illustrates. Lastly, thereˈs an amazing mural on the history of the Latino identity, located on the back of the Cardenas Markets near the highway entrance. The mural records the pre-history, transformation, and ongoing cultural presence of the Latino community in Pittsburg. As someone who shares in that heritage, I find it deeply meaningful to see it proudly displayed as visitors enter the town. Itˈs a visual welcome that makes me feel connected to the city and its values. These murals have become my way of bonding with Pittsburg, offering me a sense of belonging and helping me appreciate the townˈs rich history. They serve as both reminders of the past and invitations to become a part of the ongoing story of this community. I encourage everyone to walk through their city, or any new town, and explore public art to better understand the communityˈs identity. 28.What does the mural at HPP inspire the author to do? A. Learn about Pittsburgˈs historical events. B. Take photographs of particular art murals. C. Build lasting family bonds in Pittsburg. D. Protect the traditions of older residents. 29.What does the Ace Hardware mural illustrate? A. The integration of different cultures. B. The cruelty of European settlement. C. The restoration of indigenous customs. D. The history of the Ace Hardware building. 30.What aspect of the author does paragraph 4 reveal? A. Her original Latino background. B. Her talent for appreciating murals. C. Her contribution to the local community. D. Her role as a tour guide for Latino visitors. 31.What is the best title for the text? A. A Travel Journal of Pittsburgˈs Murals B. Pittsburgˈs Traditions Preserved in Art C. Exploring the Artistic Side of Pittsburg D. Engaging with Pittsburg Through Public Art 【答案】C、A、A、D 【解析】【文章大意】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者通过欣赏匹兹堡的公共壁画，了解当地历史与多元文化，从而获得归属感，并鼓励人们借助公共艺术融入新社区。 1.  【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者通过欣赏匹兹堡的公共壁画，了解当地历史与多元文化，从而获得归属感，并鼓励人们借助公共艺术融入新社区。 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It shows a newly arrived family with their belongings, transitioning into a photograph of a wedding. To me, this symbolizes establishing generational roots—something I hope to do here in Pittsburg as well.”可知，HPP的这幅壁画象征着家族根基的建立，作者也希望能在匹兹堡建立这样的世代根基，也就是建立持久的家庭纽带。 2.  细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This colorful piece honors the indigenous heritage… The mural acknowledges the lives of these indigenous groups, whose cultures were reshaped by newcomers. Today, these cultures coexist, a reality the mural beautifully illustrates.”可知，这幅壁画展现了土著文化与外来文化如今共存的状态，也就是不同文化的融合。 3.  细节理解题。根据第四段中的“As someone who shares in that heritage, I find it deeply meaningful to see it proudly displayed as visitors enter the town.”可知，作者提到自己和壁画所展现的拉丁裔文化有着相同的传承，由此能看出作者本身就有拉丁裔的背景。 4.  标题归纳题。通读全文，第一段作者就点明了自己作为匹兹堡的新居民，通过城市里的公共艺术壁画融入新环境，之后分别介绍了三幅壁画的内容和带给自己的感受，最后总结这些壁画让自己产生归属感，还鼓励人们通过公共艺术了解社区文化。全文的核心是作者借助公共艺术与匹兹堡这座城市建立联结。 D Soon after Mr. & Mrs. Bacchus started farming their little patch of land, they faced a major problem—a plague of birds fed on their precious crops. Then, a man stopped on the road outside their house, and asked the couple if he could take photographs of the birds on the property. Afterwards, he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds, they should learn to live alongside them, and Maraksacha Reserve was born. Today, the couple credit this man, the celebrated bird photographer Manu Espinosa, with changing their lives, and helping them persuade others of the vital importance of conservation in this region. Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador, with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups. Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations, which helps explain why it’s among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity. The country is home to over 1, 600 bird species—nearly double the number found in all of Europe—within an area just slightly larger than the UK. As the business of birding grows, more and more farmers are switching their land from agriculture to bird reserves, benefiting not just the birds, but the country’s economy too. One notable example is the Ajila family, who have devoted themselves to preserving the long-wattled umbrellabird. On his land near Recinto, landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation, replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists—work that he says is a better livelihood than farming. “Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming, but that wasn’t our only motivation,” says Luis Jr., Ajila’s son. “We aimed to protect not just the umbrellabird, but all the unique wildlife here, safeguarding them for future generations.” Since 2005, Angel Paz has transformed his former dairy farm into a bird reserve. At first, things didn’t go to plan: it took a month for the first visitor to arrive, and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour. Since then, however, thousands of people have made the pilgrimage. “I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades, and finally watched the wildlife—and the people who visit—flourish,” Angel Paz says. 32.What advice did the photographer give to the couple? A. Photographing the birds. B. Coexisting with the birds. C. Protecting their precious crops. D. Taking care of their property. 33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How Ecuador is geographically unique. B. What distinguishes Ecuador’s biodiversity. C. What makes Ecuador a birding destination. D. How birding tourism is operated in Ecuador. 34.What have the Ajila family achieved? A. Helping other farmers shake off poverty. B. Combining profitability with sustainability. C. Applying new technology in modern farming. D. Changing the landscapes of their residential areas. 35.What can we learn from Ángel Paz’s story? A. Well begun is half done. B. It takes time to bear fruit. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. The secret to success is adaptability. 【答案】B、C、B、B 【解析】略 1. 略 2. 略 3. 略 4. 略 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。 In the digital age, academic research leans heavily on online resources, yet sifting through the vast data to find credible, relevant info can be tough. Here are some balanced guides. Define your research question clearly. A focused, specific question—say, narrowing "technology and education" to "mobile apps and high school math scores"—keeps you from wandering into irrelevance.      (36)     This clarity saves time on materials that donˈt serve your thesis. Pick the right tools. General engines like Google work for basics, but academic databases (Google Scholar, JSTOR) are better for scholarly work.      (38)     Unlike general sites, which mix in blogs and non-academic content, these databases prioritize peer-reviewed, expert-vetted papers—critical for building strong arguments. Use precise keywords. Broad terms flood results; break your question into specific concepts.      (40)   ​​​​​​​  For "social mediaˈs impact on teensˈ mental health", combine "social media", "mental health", and "adolescents" with "AND" to narrow things down. Evaluate sources carefully. Check authorsˈ expertise (are they field experts?) and publication dates—     (42)   ​​​​​​​  In fast-moving fields like tech or medicine, older sources might miss recent findings. Also, follow citations(引用) in sources to find related studies. Take organized notes as you gather info.      (44)   ​​​​​​​  Jot down key points and source details (authors, dates, titles) to make referencing easier later. Tools like Goodnotes help keep notes neat. Cross-verify critical info across sources. A key fact or argument needs support from several reputable works to strengthen your paperˈs validity(有效性) and show thorough research. A．Avoid relying on one source for important information. B．Older sources may not reflect the latest developments in your field. C．Narrowing down your focus early on will save you a lot of time later. D．Make sure to record not just the information but also the source details. E．Take time to understand the boundary of your research before diving in. F．Using same-meaning or related terms can also expand your search results. G．They are designed to separate out non-academic content and prioritize quality. 36.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 37.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 38.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 39.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 40.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G.

Broad terms flood results; break your question into specific concepts.”可知，本段的主旨是精准使用关键词来优化搜索结果，F选项“Using same-meaning or related terms can also expand your search results.（使用同义词或相关词汇也能扩大你的搜索结果范围）”是对关键词使用技巧的补充，与前文“拆分具体概念”的方法相承接。 4.  根据上文“Check authorsˈ expertise (are they field experts?) and publication dates”可知，筛选资料时需要关注发表时间，B选项“Older sources may not reflect the latest developments in your field.（较陈旧的资料可能无法反映你所在领域的最新发展）”承接上文“关注发表日期”的建议，且与下文“In fast-moving fields like tech or medicine, older sources might miss recent findings.”表述一致。 5.  根据上文“Take organized notes as you gather info.”可知，本段强调收集资料时要做好有条理的笔记，D选项“Make sure to record not just the information but also the source details.（务必不仅记录信息内容，还要记下资料来源的详细信息）”与下文“Jot down key points and source details (authors, dates, titles) to make referencing easier later.”相呼应，是对记笔记方法的具体说明。 四、完形填空：本大题共15小题，共15分。 I scan the water in Australiaˈs Kakadu National Park, in search of an ancient      (41)   ​​​​​​​ : a saltwater crocodile(鳄鱼).

But I know itˈs there.”以及后文“just beneath the surface”可知，鳄鱼藏在水面下，难以被发现。invisible（看不见的）能准确描述鳄鱼隐蔽的状态。 3.  根据前文鳄鱼隐藏在水下的描述，以及后文作者与鳄鱼的互动可知，此刻鳄鱼很可能正在暗中观察作者。 4.  根据前文“Their eyes and nostrils are positioned high on their heads”可知，鳄鱼的眼睛和鼻孔位于头部较高处，而整个身体几乎潜伏在水下。 5.  根据后文“has remained unchanged for 95 million years”以及“these animals are built for the kill”可知，鳄鱼的身体构造历经9500万年都没有改变，是为捕猎而生的。 6.  前文详细描述了鳄鱼的身体构造优势，后文“these animals are built for the kill”是对前文内容的总结。In short（简而言之）用于总结前文，符合逻辑。 7.  根据后文“a soft ripple”可知，作者看到了水面的轻微波动，这属于一种动静。 8.  根据后文“I take a few steps to the left; the crocodile silently follows.”可知，鳄鱼紧紧盯住了作者。 9.  根据前文“I take a few steps to the left; the crocodile silently follows.”可知，作者向右移动时，鳄鱼依旧在追踪他。 10.  根据后文“to take one step too many”可知，鳄鱼在等待作者出现失误，以便发起攻击。mistake（错误）符合语境。 11.  根据前文“it remains motionless, waiting for me to make a   30  ”可知，鳄鱼能一动不动地等待，体现出极强的耐心。 12.  根据前文“a world of constant change”以及“seeking innovation”可知，人们总在追求变革与创新，也就是不断寻求进步。 13.  根据后文“When the foundation is strong, thereˈs no need to…”可知，有些事物保持原本的样子就很好。 14.  根据前文“itˈs easy to forget that some things are   33   just the way they are”可知，根基稳固的事物，根本不需要做出太多改变。 15.  根据前文对鳄鱼危险特质的描述，作者调侃看鳄鱼的时候不能靠得太近。closely（靠近地）符合语境。 五、语法填空：本大题共1小题，共15分。 56.In Baihe National Nature Reserve, located in Jiuzhaigou County, Sichuan Province, about 1,700 Sichuan golden snub-nosed monkeys thrive(茁壮成长) in their natural habitat, protected by dedicated rangers(护林员).

The package was about 12×12×12 inches but felt very light. I couldnˈt imagine what was in it. The post office had marked it fragile(易碎的), so I was careful as I removed the tape and slid the lid(盖子) off. The gift was wrapped in soft white tissue paper with a tiny piece of tape holding it together. I carefully eased the tape away from the paper and opened it. An earthy sweetness rose as my eyes met the surprise of many different kinds of fall leaves of every shape, color, and size in the box. My son had sent the package through priority mail, so the leaves would still have their bright colors. A note read, "Mom, Iˈm sending a little fall to you. Enjoy." The sight and smell were just as satisfying as if I had tasted something I had been longing for. It brought tears to my eyes that my son understood my need for a feeling of the autumn season. My son now lives in southern Georgia. One day I was telling my two granddaughters about their dad sending me fall leaves each year. They said, "Nana, we donˈt get a lot of colorful fall leaves here like you do in Virginia. Will you send us some of yours?" So I decided that it was my turn to please them with a box of fall leaves. I used a box for each of them as I collected leaves from all kinds of trees; any trees with big or small colorful leaves that fell to the ground. When I brought them home, I used wax paper(蜡纸) to preserve them. First, I laid the leaves on a piece of wax paper and then laid another piece of wax paper on top. Then I pressed them with a hot iron. When it cooled, I removed the wax paper that had coated the beautiful leaves. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I placed the dried leaves in two boxes, adding something special to each one. ___________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Two days later, my granddaughters called to tell me what they had done with their leaves. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I placed the dried leaves in two boxes, adding something special to each one. There were little touches—hand-drawn smiley faces on the lids, small bags of dried flowers for a calming smell, and handwritten notes that said, "May these leaves bring you a piece of Nanaˈs fall magic." After sealing the boxes with care, I walked to the post office, imagining my granddaughtersˈ smiles as they opened them. As I sent them off, a mix of excitement and nervousness filled me and I couldnˈt wait to hear how my granddaughters would react. Two days later, my granddaughters called to tell me what they had done with their leaves. My older granddaughter, Jayne, took her leaves outside and spread them around their pine trees, while my younger, Grace, carefully placed hers around her room and on the door, so she could feel my closeness. After hanging up, I was reminded of the simple joys and connections that nature brings across generations. I hope that each year when my granddaughters open their fall leaf boxes, they will feel the love and memories placed with each leaf. A small box of leaves can truly bridge the miles and keep us connected through the seasons. 【解析】略 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★启用前 2026届高三全真模拟适应性考试 英语 注意事项: 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡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，写在试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 一、听力-选择题：本大题共20小题，共30分。 1.What does the woman say about the man?

A survey found that approximately 67% of U. S. AI users are also polite and show gratitude toward AI search engines. Some even joked about the cost: if every polite word consumes electricity, the bill must be high. OpenAIˈs CEO Sam Altman replied, "Tens of millions of dollars well spent—you never know." In reality, of course, AI chatbots do not appreciate politeness; they lack consciousness, feelings or social needs. From a purely utilitarian(功利主义的) standpoint, all those pleases and thank-yous are just flushing money down the toilet. Still, there may be value that isnˈt immediately measurable in showing gratitude toward AI. Psychologists Robert Emmons and Michael McCullough carried out an experiment in which they divided participants into three groups, asking the first to list things they are grateful for, while others listed daily troubles or simply kept journals. After 10 weeks, they found that the first group reported 25% higher happiness levels, stronger inner strength and even better physical health. Whatˈs true of gratitude is also true of kindness and generosity more generally. Experiments at UC Riverside found that performing "five small acts of kindness per week" produced steady increases in happiness. This idea isnˈt new. The medieval thinker Maimonides wrote that "It is better for a person to give one coin to a thousand poor people than to give a thousand coins to one poor person." He believed that regular acts of goodness, like giving charity and expressing gratitude, make us happier in the long run by turning virtue into a habit. So perhaps all of our pleases and thank-yous to AI have value, even if they cost OpenAI millions of dollars annually. Showing appreciation, even toward a machine, reinforces positive habits of courtesy(礼貌), patience and empathy. In our increasingly digital and automated world, preserving these human qualities may be more valuable than the cost of a little extra electricity. Ultimately, the beneficiary of our politeness isnˈt the AI at all, but ourselves. 24.How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1? A. By quoting an expert. B. By telling a story. C. By presenting a phenomenon. D. By defining a concept. 25.What value of gratitude does the experiment in paragraph 3 show? A. It strengthens our bodies and minds. B. It reduces daily stress levels. C. It improves memory and creativity. D. It deepens social relationship. 26.Which of the following would Maimonides most likely approve of? A. Giving gifts to friends on birthdays. B. Making a large donation to a charity. C. Expressing gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. D. Volunteering weekly at a community kitchen. 27.What message does the author mainly convey in the text? A. Courtesy to AI saves electricity bills. B. AI improves the quality of human life. C. Politeness benefits humans rather than AI. D. AI learns empathy from human behavior. C Moving to a new city can be an anxious experience. Itˈs often difficult to develop a sense of connection when youˈre unfamiliar with a placeˈs traditions and history. Now that Iˈm a new resident of Pittsburg, one way Iˈve found to engage with my new environment is through the art murals(壁画) found around town. Whenever I take a walk around the Old Town area, I stop to admire the mural at Heritage Park Plaza (HPP). As a newcomer, I find myself identifying with one section of the mural in particular. It shows a newly arrived family with their belongings, transitioning(过渡) into a photograph of a wedding. To me, this symbolizes establishing general roots—something I hope to do here in Pittsburg as well. Another mural I enjoy is located on the side of the Ace Hardware building on Railroad Avenue. This colorful piece honors the indigenous heritage(土著遗产) of the Pittsburg area, specifically the Bay Miwok people who lived here long before European settlers arrived. The mural acknowledges the lives of these indigenous groups, whose cultures were reshaped by newcomers. Today, these cultures coexist, a reality the mural beautifully illustrates. Lastly, thereˈs an amazing mural on the history of the Latino identity, located on the back of the Cardenas Markets near the highway entrance. The mural records the pre-history, transformation, and ongoing cultural presence of the Latino community in Pittsburg. As someone who shares in that heritage, I find it deeply meaningful to see it proudly displayed as visitors enter the town. Itˈs a visual welcome that makes me feel connected to the city and its values. These murals have become my way of bonding with Pittsburg, offering me a sense of belonging and helping me appreciate the townˈs rich history. They serve as both reminders of the past and invitations to become a part of the ongoing story of this community. I encourage everyone to walk through their city, or any new town, and explore public art to better understand the communityˈs identity. 28.What does the mural at HPP inspire the author to do? A. Learn about Pittsburgˈs historical events. B. Take photographs of particular art murals. C. Build lasting family bonds in Pittsburg. D. Protect the traditions of older residents. 29.What does the Ace Hardware mural illustrate? A. The integration of different cultures. B. The cruelty of European settlement. C. The restoration of indigenous customs. D. The history of the Ace Hardware building. 30.What aspect of the author does paragraph 4 reveal? A. Her original Latino background. B. Her talent for appreciating murals. C. Her contribution to the local community. D. Her role as a tour guide for Latino visitors. 31.What is the best title for the text? A. A Travel Journal of Pittsburgˈs Murals B. Pittsburgˈs Traditions Preserved in Art C. Exploring the Artistic Side of Pittsburg D. Engaging with Pittsburg Through Public Art D Soon after Mr. & Mrs. Bacchus started farming their little patch of land, they faced a major problem—a plague of birds fed on their precious crops. Then, a man stopped on the road outside their house, and asked the couple if he could take photographs of the birds on the property. Afterwards, he suggested that instead of trying to get rid of the birds, they should learn to live alongside them, and Maraksacha Reserve was born. Today, the couple credit this man, the celebrated bird photographer Manu Espinosa, with changing their lives, and helping them persuade others of the vital importance of conservation in this region. Birding tourism is flourishing in Ecuador, with increasing numbers of specialist tour groups. Ecuador contains a variety of ecosystems at differing elevations, which helps explain why it’s among the top 10 countries in the world for bird diversity. The country is home to over 1, 600 bird species—nearly double the number found in all of Europe—within an area just slightly larger than the UK. As the business of birding grows, more and more farmers are switching their land from agriculture to bird reserves, benefiting not just the birds, but the country’s economy too. One notable example is the Ajila family, who have devoted themselves to preserving the long-wattled umbrellabird. On his land near Recinto, landowner Luis Ajila has switched from dairy farming to conservation, replanting trees and promoting the site to wildlife tourists—work that he says is a better livelihood than farming. “Wildlife tourism is much more profitable than farming, but that wasn’t our only motivation,” says Luis Jr., Ajila’s son. “We aimed to protect not just the umbrellabird, but all the unique wildlife here, safeguarding them for future generations.” Since 2005, Angel Paz has transformed his former dairy farm into a bird reserve. At first, things didn’t go to plan: it took a month for the first visitor to arrive, and he paid just $10 for a four-hour tour. Since then, however, thousands of people have made the pilgrimage. “I have protected my home and its birdlife for almost two decades, and finally watched the wildlife—and the people who visit—flourish,” Angel Paz says. 32.What advice did the photographer give to the couple? A. Photographing the birds. B. Coexisting with the birds. C. Protecting their precious crops. D. Taking care of their property. 33.What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. How Ecuador is geographically unique. B. What distinguishes Ecuador’s biodiversity. C. What makes Ecuador a birding destination. D. How birding tourism is operated in Ecuador. 34.What have the Ajila family achieved? A. Helping other farmers shake off poverty. B. Combining profitability with sustainability. C. Applying new technology in modern farming. D. Changing the landscapes of their residential areas. 35.What can we learn from Ángel Paz’s story? A. Well begun is half done. B. It takes time to bear fruit. C. The early bird catches the worm. D. The secret to success is adaptability. 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。 In the digital age, academic research leans heavily on online resources, yet sifting through the vast data to find credible, relevant info can be tough. Here are some balanced guides. Define your research question clearly. A focused, specific question—say, narrowing "technology and education" to "mobile apps and high school math scores"—keeps you from wandering into irrelevance.      (36)     This clarity saves time on materials that donˈt serve your thesis. Pick the right tools. General engines like Google work for basics, but academic databases (Google Scholar, JSTOR) are better for scholarly work.      (38)     Unlike general sites, which mix in blogs and non-academic content, these databases prioritize peer-reviewed, expert-vetted papers—critical for building strong arguments. Use precise keywords. Broad terms flood results; break your question into specific concepts.      (40)   ​​​​​​​  For "social mediaˈs impact on teensˈ mental health", combine "social media", "mental health", and "adolescents" with "AND" to narrow things down. Evaluate sources carefully. Check authorsˈ expertise (are they field experts?) and publication dates—     (42)   ​​​​​​​  In fast-moving fields like tech or medicine, older sources might miss recent findings. Also, follow citations(引用) in sources to find related studies. Take organized notes as you gather info.      (44)   ​​​​​​​  Jot down key points and source details (authors, dates, titles) to make referencing easier later. Tools like Goodnotes help keep notes neat. Cross-verify critical info across sources. A key fact or argument needs support from several reputable works to strengthen your paperˈs validity(有效性) and show thorough research. A．Avoid relying on one source for important information. B．Older sources may not reflect the latest developments in your field. C．Narrowing down your focus early on will save you a lot of time later. D．Make sure to record not just the information but also the source details. E．Take time to understand the boundary of your research before diving in. F．Using same-meaning or related terms can also expand your search results. G．They are designed to separate out non-academic content and prioritize quality. 36.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 37.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 38.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 39.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G. G 40.A. A B. B C. C D. D E. E F. F G.

The package was about 12×12×12 inches but felt very light. I couldnˈt imagine what was in it. The post office had marked it fragile(易碎的), so I was careful as I removed the tape and slid the lid(盖子) off. The gift was wrapped in soft white tissue paper with a tiny piece of tape holding it together. I carefully eased the tape away from the paper and opened it. An earthy sweetness rose as my eyes met the surprise of many different kinds of fall leaves of every shape, color, and size in the box. My son had sent the package through priority mail, so the leaves would still have their bright colors. A note read, "Mom, Iˈm sending a little fall to you. Enjoy." The sight and smell were just as satisfying as if I had tasted something I had been longing for. It brought tears to my eyes that my son understood my need for a feeling of the autumn season. My son now lives in southern Georgia. One day I was telling my two granddaughters about their dad sending me fall leaves each year. They said, "Nana, we donˈt get a lot of colorful fall leaves here like you do in Virginia. Will you send us some of yours?" So I decided that it was my turn to please them with a box of fall leaves. I used a box for each of them as I collected leaves from all kinds of trees; any trees with big or small colorful leaves that fell to the ground. When I brought them home, I used wax paper(蜡纸) to preserve them. First, I laid the leaves on a piece of wax paper and then laid another piece of wax paper on top. Then I pressed them with a hot iron. When it cooled, I removed the wax paper that had coated the beautiful leaves. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I placed the dried leaves in two boxes, adding something special to each one. ___________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Two days later, my granddaughters called to tell me what they had done with their leaves. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 第1页，共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
