(2026·河北衡水联考)For some folks,hiking is an activity done for a couple of miles at a time.But for others, it is a lifestyle.Those who hike the Pacific Crest Trail(PCT) fall into the latter.The PCT is 2,650 miles.Along the way, hikers walk through the desert, up mountains and then cross seven national parks.It is a tough journey with a low completion rate.Just 14% of all hikers attempting a “thruhike” have succeeded in finishing the PCT.
The hike's reputation is what makes Pa'at's completion of the journey more extraordinary.The hiker known as Pa'at, an old man, finished the last bit of the PCT with two younger hikers, Auti and Chris.They celebrated Pa'at's success via an online post.They wrote, “Not many people can say they've finished such an amazing feat, especially not at 71!”
Pa'at approached the trailend marker and touched it, amazed that he had made it to the end.He said, “I know there were different troubles that I needed to overcome, but I had confidence in myself before I set off.” And then he sang, “I've been waiting...such a long time.Walking such a long way.Such a long way...just to be here.”
For anyone who has ever dreamed of hiking the PCT, Pa'at's feat is proof that they aren't too late.“I've wanted to walk this trail for a long time,” someone posted online, “but now I know even if I don't get it in my twenties or thirties, I can still try again.Of course, I can challenge what I lacked courage to do in the past.”
Auti and Chris met Pa'at a few days before finishing.They said, “Pa'at is one of those people you instantly feel like you've known a lifetime.He has a heart of gold, the kindest soul, and unmatched optimism and courage.We both thank him for being such an inspiration to us.”

(2026·江淮十校第一次联考)In recent years, the concept of “slow travel” has emerged as a reaction to the fast paced, mass tourism that dominates the industry.Slow travel encourages travelers to engage profoundly with local cultures, stay longer in destinations, and form meaningful connections with local communities.
One of the key principles of slow travel is to reduce environmental impact.By choosing to stay in locallyowned accommodations, eating at familyrun restaurants, and using public transportation or bicycles, travelers can significantly decrease their carbon footprint.For instance, a study found that tourists who engage in slow travel produce up to 70% less greenhouse gas emissions compared to those on traditional package tours.
Slow travel also allows for a deeper cultural understanding.Instead of rushing through tourist attractions, slow travelers take the time to participate in local traditions, learn about historical significance, and interact with residents.This not only enriches the travel experience but also provides economic benefits to local communities.In some rural areas, slow travel initiatives have helped preserve endangered crafts and revitalize (使恢复元气) dying traditions.
However, slow travel is not without challenges.It requires more planning and flexibility, as travelers need to research local customs, transportation options, and authentic experiences.Additionally, slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget constraints (约束).For busy professionals or families with limited vacation days, spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic.
Despite these challenges, the slow travel movement continues to grow.Travelers are becoming more conscious of their environmental and cultural impact, and many are seeking more authentic and sustainable ways to explore the world.As a result, travel companies are starting to offer more slowtravel options, such as extended homestays and cultural immersion programs.
[语篇解读] 这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了近年“慢旅行”兴起以应对快节奏大众旅游,其能减少环境影响、深化文化理解,但存在规划多等挑战,如今仍在发展,相关旅行选择增多。
5.What is the benefit of slow travel?
A.It can save money on traveling.
B.It can be more environmentally friendly.
C.It can allow travelers to visit more places hurriedly.
D.It can increase the financial income of travel companies.
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段可知,慢旅行可能对环境更有益。故选B。
答案 B
6.What can we learn about slow travel from the third paragraph?
A.It has little impact on local economies.
B.It focuses on superficial interactions with locals.
C.It discourages travelers from learning about history.
D.It may contribute to the preservation of traditional crafts.
解析 细节理解题。根据第三段“In some rural areas, slow travel initiatives have helped preserve endangered crafts and revitalize (使恢复元气) dying traditions.”可知,慢旅行可能有助于传统工艺的传承。故选D。
答案 D
7.What does the underlined word “feasible” mean in this context?
A.practical B.inevitable
C.contradictory D.desirable
解析 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“slow travel may not be feasible for everyone due to time or budget constraints”以及后文举例“spending weeks in a single destination may seem unrealistic”可知,此处指慢旅行对某些人可能不“实际可行”。故选A。
答案 A
8.What can be inferred about the future of slow travel?
A.It will replace traditional tourism entirely.
B.It may become more popular in the future.

(2026·安徽蚌埠检测)One hundred days after New York City carried out congestion (拥塞) pricing, significant positive traffic impacts are evident.Juliette Michaelson, an MTA deputy chief overseeing the program, highlights a striking 70% decrease in complaints about too much carhonking (按喇叭) compared to the previous year, calling it an “allinone” indicator of success.
Clear data shows traffic has substantially reduced.The Congestion Pricing Now Coalition reports a 65% drop in rushhour delays at the Holland Tunnel, with travel times down 48%.Overall, 6 million fewer cars entered lower Manhattan compared to the same period a year prior, averaging 80,000 fewer daily by March.Trafficrelated injuries within the congestion zone have halved.Buses are moving significantly faster, sometimes forcing drivers to slow down to maintain schedules.
Concerns that the toll (通行费) would discourage visitors and harm business appear unfounded.While yearoveryear comparisons are complex, commuter rail (通勤铁路) ridership increased:MetroNorth saw an 8% rise in January 2025 versus 2024, with NJ Transit and LIRR also seeing gains—the LIRR's immediate post—January 5th increase strongly suggests drivers switching modes.Broadway ticket sales and Business Improvement District visitor counts (up 1.5 million yearoveryear) further indicate business vitality hasn't been choked off.
Initial public doubt is showing signs of shifting.While a December Siena poll (民意调查) showed only 29% support (51% opposed), a recent followup shifted the split to 33—40 against, with city residents at 42—35 support.Most remarkably, a Morning Consult poll revealed the program's strongest supporters (66%) are those who drive into the congestion zone most frequently—multiple times per week.Michaelson credits this to drivers directly experiencing improved traffic flow, matching experiences in London and Stockholm where opposition lessened after the policy was put in place.
The program's other key goal—funding public transport improvements—is progressing.Through February, the MTA collected about $100 million in tolls.After costs, the projected yearend revenue (收益) is approximately $500 million.This revenue is already funding specific capital projects:subway elevators at Delancey StreetEssex Street (tied to affordable housing), contracts for the next phase of the Second Avenue Subway, and more electric buses.
[语篇解读] 这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了纽约市实施拥堵收费后,在交通改善、公共交通变化、商业影响以及公众态度转变等方面的显著成效。
9.What key evidence shows congestion pricing reduced traffic problems?
A.Electric bus usage increased by 48% in Manhattan.
B.Subway construction projects sped up significantly.
C.Toll revenue reached $500 million within three months.
D.Carhonking complaints dropped by 70% yearoveryear.
解析 细节理解题。根据第一段可知,汽车喇叭投诉同比下降70%,是拥堵收费减少交通问题的关键证据。故选D。
答案 D
10.What changes did public transport experience because of congestion pricing?
A.Subway lines in lower Manhattan were expanded and bus fares dropped.
B.Commuter rail ridership increased and buses moved significantly faster.
C.Public transport schedules were adjusted to match fewer car drivers.
D.Train stations were rebuilt to handle more visitors from other cities.
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Buses are moving significantly faster, sometimes forcing drivers to slow down to maintain schedules.”和第三段“commuter rail (通勤铁路) ridership increased: MetroNorth saw an 8% rise in January 2025 versus 2024”可知,由于拥堵收费,通勤铁路客流量增加,公交车运行速度明显加快。故选B。
答案 B
11.What does the underlined phrase “choked off” in paragraph 3 most likely mean?
A.Greatly stimulated.
B.Carefully managed.
C.Severely damaged.
D.Officially recognized.
解析 词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句“Concerns that the toll (通行费) would discourage visitors and harm business appear unfounded.”可知,对通行费会损害商业的担忧是没有根据的。根据“Broadway ticket sales and Business Improvement District visitor counts (up 1.5 million yearoveryear) further indicate business vitality hasn't been choked off.”可知,此处是具体例子,用来支持本段首句的论点,通行费并没有影响/损害商业。由此可推测choked off意指“商业活力受到严重损害”。故选C。
答案 C
12.What is the primary use of the toll revenue?
A.Repaying drivers affected by the traffic changes.
B.Reducing subway ticket prices for lowincome groups.
C.Supporting new road construction in congestion zones.
D.Funding public transport upgrades like subway elevators.
解析 细节理解题。根据最后一段“This revenue is already funding specific capital projects:subway elevators at Delancey StreetEssex Street (tied to affordable housing), contracts for the next phase of the SecondAvenue Subway, and more electric buses.”可知,通行费收入的主要用途是资助公共交通升级,比如地铁电梯等。故选D。
答案 D
Ⅱ.七选五
(2026·江西南昌信息卷)The summer following your high school graduation is supposed to be unforgettable.Rather than spending this precious period sleeping in or gaming, why not begin on a solo adventure? 13 However, you need to take some precautions for your first adventure as an adult.
Before hitting the road, invest time in thorough planning.Begin by answering bigpicture questions:What sights do you want to see? How much time will you spend away? What prior experience do you have with roadtripping? 14 For example, you may need bear spray (喷雾) when hiking in National Park or a surf helmet (头盔) if catching waves near coral reefs.
With your destination in mind, research your route carefully, taking note of factors like the road condition, emergency supply points and alternative paths. 15 You can use your phone to plan your route with apps like All Trails providing detailed road maps and realtime updates, ensuring you can make adjustments as you go.
While there is nothing wrong with pushing your boundaries in your late teens, knowing your limits matters, too.Instead of jumping in at the deep end, start with smaller trips at preestablished campsites closer to home. 16
If you find a tight budget for a solo adventure, you may get the ball rolling by reaching out to organizations like Outward Bound USA and REI Outdoor Classes, which offer programs specially designed for young adventurers.Despite involving some group activities, you get a chance to connect with likeminded individuals.
17 This simple step ensures your safety while allowing your loved ones to share in your journey.
A.They make the adventure more challenging.
B.Modern technology makes this easier than ever.
C.Then plan the finer details with these general ideas.
D.Of course, scheduling ahead together should be prioritized.
