This initiative encourages students to think creatively about how they can make a tangible environmental impact on campus. Grant Levels: Seed Grant (Up to $ 500): This grant is designed for individuals who want to lead awareness campaigns or small-scale projects, such as pilot recycling programs or single-use plastic reduction campaigns. These initiatives can significantly raise awareness about sustainability issues among students and staff, providing the first step in broader environmental action. Impact Grant ($ 501 - $3,000): For projects involving at least two departments, this grant supports collaborative efforts aimed at bringing about tangible changes in campus infrastructure. Examples include energy-saving lighting systems, waste diversion projects, or sustainability-focused renovations. The aim is to have measurable, long-lasting impact on the campus environment. Legacy Grant ($ 3,000+): This grant supports long-term solutions that have the potential to be implemented across all campuses. Legacy projects must have clear, permanent environmental benefits and are expected to continue even after the initial funding period. These projects require the support of a faculty advisor, demonstrating their academic or institutional significance. Key Dates (2026): April 15: Proposal submission deadline. May 10: Shortlisted candidates will be notified for an interview. June 1: Funding awarded. Evaluation Criteria: Originality (30%): Does the project offer a fresh perspective that can inspire others? Scalability (40%): Is there potential to expand this project to other campuses or institutions? Cost-efficiency (30%): Do the environmental benefits justify the project’s budget and investment? Note: Projects that are purely theoretical without a practical application on campus will not be considered. All equipment purchased with the grant remains the property of the USO and must be used for the designated project. 1. What does a project need to get a Legacy Grant? A. A plastic reduction campaign. B. A minimum two-year timeline. C. A professional recommendation. D. A cross-departmental cooperation. 2. What is the primary focus of the “Scalability” criterion? A. Balance between cost and benefits. B. Creativity behind the student’s idea. C. Direct influence on the local campus. D. Potential for wider project application. 3.

A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了大学可持续发展办公室推出的校园可持续发展学生项目资助计划，公布了2026年关键申请时间、评审标准，同时明确了不予受理的项目要求及资助设备归属规定。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文Legacy Grant ($ 3,000+)部分“These projects require the support of a faculty advisor, demonstrating their academic or institutional significance.(这类项目需要指导老师的支持，以此体现其学术或机构价值。)” 可知，申请传承资助项目需要专业老师的推荐支持。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文Evaluation Criteria部分“Scalability (40%): Is there potential to expand this project to other campuses or institutions?(可推广性占比 40%：该项目是否有拓展到其他校区或机构的潜力？)”可知，可推广性标准主要关注项目更广泛应用的潜力。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文Note部分“Projects that are purely theoretical without a practical application on campus will not be considered.(仅停留在理论层面、无法在校园实际落地的项目将不予受理。)” 可知，一篇关于全球变暖历史的学生论文纯属理论、无实际校园应用，很可能会被驳回。 B On a sunny morning in a small courtyard at Walt Whitman Middle School, a 14-year-old held a chicken gently in her arms. “Her name is Betsy,” Maicy Nealy, an eighth-grader, said. Nealy used to be afraid of chickens as a young child. Now she spends hours after school collecting their eggs and cleaning the coop (鸡舍). For her, the chickens make her life organized and develop her interest in agriculture. Now she can’t imagine adulthood without chickens involved. She says when she grows up, she plans to be “a lawyer that owns chickens”. The chicken program at Whitman started about a year ago, when after-school program specialist Lee Maguire planned a month-long embryo (胚胎) development program for kids to learn about biology. Throughout the school year, they’ve observed students gaining not only companionship from the animals but some life skills. The students refill the feed supply — which costs about $25 for 50 pounds — with money from selling some of the eggs the chickens produce at $5 to $10 a dozen, making the project self-sustaining. The chickens make the school a calmer place. This good part of the program was soon noticed by the school’s counselors (辅导员) who help students with problems. Sometimes they take students who are having a hard time to the chicken coop outside, to help them relax and clear their bad feelings. “At this moment, they don’t have to worry about having no place to live, no enough food, or how to improve their grades,” one counselor said. “The chickens don’t judge. They just give love. It’s a quiet place to get away from stress.” As school ends, students head home to prepare for high school, while the chickens stay with Maguire for the summer. But first, he has a surprise. “I bought more baby chicks,” he said. “I got them eight more and I’m looking forward to boosting my students’ learning interest further.” 4. What can be learned from Maicy Nealy’s story? A. She chose her job by caring for animals. B. She mastered professional farming skills. C. She went from fear to lifelong love for chickens. D. She kept close relationships with outdoor animals. 5. Why did Maguire start the chicken program first? A. To improve students’ teamwork skills. B. To help students deal with loneliness. C. To create a sustainable food source for the school. D. To provide hands-on science learning experiences. 6. What impressed the school counselors about the program? A. Its potential to generate school income. B. Its healing value for troubled students. C. Its improvement in academic performance. D. Its popularity among small animal lovers. 7. What is the best title for the passage? A. Education with Wings B. Life with Chickens C. Skills from Nature D. Peace from Animals 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了学校开设养鸡课程，既可帮学生学习生物、习得生活技能，依靠售蛋实现自给，还能安抚情绪，老师又添置雏鸡继续推进项目。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Nealy used to be afraid of chickens as a young child. Now she spends hours after school collecting their eggs and cleaning the coop (鸡舍). For her, the chickens make her life organized and develop her interest in agriculture. Now she can’t imagine adulthood without chickens involved.( 尼利小时候曾害怕鸡，但现在她放学后会花好几个小时去收集鸡蛋并打扫鸡舍。对她来说，这些鸡让她的生活变得有条理，并培养了她对农业的兴趣。现在，她无法想象没有鸡参与的成年生活。)”可知，从迈西·尼利的故事中可以得出她从恐惧转变为对鸡的终身热爱。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The chicken program at Whitman started about a year ago, when after-school program specialist Lee Maguire planned a month-long embryo (胚胎) development program for kids to learn about biology.( 沃尔特·惠特曼中学的养鸡项目大约一年前开始的，当时课外活动专家利·马奎尔为孩子们规划了一个为期一个月的胚胎发育项目，让他们了解生物学。)”可知，项目最初的目的是通过胚胎发育课程，让孩子们亲身体验学习生物学知识，也就是提供动手实践的科学学习机会。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“This good part of the program was soon noticed by the school’s counselors (辅导员) who help students with problems. Sometimes they take students who are having a hard time to the chicken coop outside, to help them relax and clear their bad feelings.( 该项目的这一积极方面很快就被学校的辅导员们注意到了，辅导员们帮助学生解决各种问题。有时他们会带那些心情不佳的学生到鸡舍外面去，帮助他们放松心情，排解不良情绪。)”可知，辅导员最看重的是项目的心理治愈作用：能帮助处境困难的学生缓解压力、平复情绪，鸡的无条件陪伴能让他们暂时逃离烦恼。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲的是学校的养鸡项目不仅是生物科学教育，还教会学生责任、独立，更能治愈心灵，是一种全方位的成长教育。“Wings”一语双关：既指鸡的翅膀，也象征这个项目为学生的成长插上了翅膀；由此可知，这篇文章的最佳标题是“有翅膀的教育”。 C The oil and gas industry may be emitting about three-times the amount of climate-warming methane than government estimates show, according to a new study from Stanford University, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and other organizations in Nature. Methane (甲烷) is the main component of natural gas and among the greenhouse gases heating the planet, which is produced when extracting crude oil. Specific measurements varied from a low of less than 1%, or about what the Environmental Protection Agency estimates, at a site in Pennsylvania to a high of nearly 10% in New Mexico. Researchers found the higher percentages of methane released generally had something in common. “These are places where production is mostly focusing on oil,” says Evan Sherwin, a research scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory who conducted the research as a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University. But oil and gas often come out of the ground together, and if there wasn’t a way to transport the less-valuable gas to where it could be sold, leaks were higher. In Pennsylvania, by contrast, drillers are focused on producing natural gas, and there, very little of the methane was wasted. That complicates an argument many in the industry have made, generally in opposition to tighter government regulations on methane. They say drillers have the incentive to capture gas leaks so they can sell the fossil fuel. But that’s not always possible, if industry hasn’t built the pipelines and other infrastructure to get the gas to consumers. In this study, researchers estimate the industry releases about 6.2 million tons of methane a year, valued at $1.08 billion. “Emissions of methane from fossil fuel operations remain unacceptably high,” said Tim Gould, chief economist at the International Energy Agency, during a Tuesday call with reporters. The organization’s Global Methane Tracker shows methane from the energy sector was near the record high level in 2023. Despite that, the IEA concludes that if countries fully implement existing pledges on methane reductions, that would make significant progress toward achieving global climate goals. “2024 could mark a turning point and policies are starting to be put into place. Greater transparency is coming. Awareness is spreading and we have enhanced ability to track large leaks and act quickly to shut them down,” Gould said. Gould said he hopes to have good news to share, about a reduction in methane emissions, next year. 8. What can we infer from paragraph 2? A. Various measures are taken to restrict the release of methane. B. The low value of the gas in part leads to the high leak of the methane. C. The more focused on the production of the gas, the higher the methane release D. The percentage of methane in developing countries is higher than in developed countries 9. What does the underlined word “incentive” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Equipment. B. Productivity. C. Drive. D. Assessment. 10. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Caution: Methane emission gives rise to serious global warming. B. Methane emissions: Oil and gas industry’s hidden impact. C. Measures taken to cut back on methane emissions. D. Methane is to blame for the climate change. 11. What is Tim Gould’s attitude toward emissions of methane at present? A. Critical. B. Dismissive. C. Doubtful. D. Optimistic. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍了甲烷气体的泄露及采取应对措施的迫切性。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But oil and gas often come out of the ground together, and if there wasn’t a way to transport the less-valuable gas to where it could be sold, leaks were higher. (但石油和天然气往往是一起开采出来的，如果没有办法将价值较低的天然气运输到可以出售的地方，泄漏就会更高)”可知，天然气的低价值导致甲烷的高泄漏。故选B。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“That complicates an argument many in the industry have made, generally in opposition to tighter government regulations on methane. They say drillers have the incentive to capture gas leaks so they can sell the fossil fuel. But that’s not always possible, if industry hasn’t built the pipelines and other infrastructure to get the gas to consumers. (这使许多业内人士提出的论点变得复杂，他们普遍反对政府对甲烷的更严格监管。他们说，钻井商有incentive捕获天然气泄漏，以便出售化石燃料。但如果工业界没有建造管道和其他基础设施将天然气输送给消费者，这并不总是可能的)”可知，如果政府监管不那么严格的话，钻井商可以出售化石燃料来卖钱，所以他们是有动机来捕获天然气泄漏的。所以，incentive的意思应该是“动机”，和选项C意思一致。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The oil and gas industry may be emitting about three-times the amount of climate-warming methane than government estimates show, according to a new study from Stanford University, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and other organizations in Nature. (根据斯坦福大学、劳伦斯伯克利国家实验室和《自然》杂志其他组织的一项新研究，石油和天然气行业排放的甲烷量可能是政府估计的气候变暖甲烷量的三倍)”和第二段“But oil and gas often come out of the ground together, and if there wasn’t a way to transport the less-valuable gas to where it could be sold, leaks were higher. (但石油和天然气往往是一起开采出来的，如果没有办法将价值较低的天然气运输到可以出售的地方，泄漏就会更高)”可知，文章主要讲述的是石油和天然气的开采带来的甲烷泄露问题，所以“甲烷排放：石油和天然气行业的隐性影响。”适合作为文章标题。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““2024 could mark a turning point and policies are starting to be put into place. Greater transparency is coming. Awareness is spreading and we have enhanced ability to track large leaks and act quickly to shut them down,” Gould said. Gould said he hopes to have good news to share, about a reduction in methane emissions, next year. (古尔德说：“2024年可能标志着一个转折点，政策开始实施。更大的透明度即将到来。人们的意识正在传播，我们已经增强了追踪大规模泄漏并迅速采取行动关闭泄漏的能力。”。古尔德说，他希望明年能分享减少甲烷排放的好消息)”可知，Tim Gould对甲烷排放问题是持乐观态度的。故选D。 D Average age is rising around the world — a demographic (人口统计) change that may pose a significant challenge to efforts to slow down climate change. Hossein Estiri at Harvard University and Emilio Zagheni of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Germany, have found that energy use increases as we get older, and not just because we tend to get wealthier. An ageing population could mean a greater proportion of society with higher energy use, their study suggests. They combined two decades’ worth of data from thousands of US households and used this to build a model to reveal how energy use varied across 17 age groups between 1987 and 2009. They found that, on average, children’s energy consumption climbs as they grow up, before dropping slightly when they leave home. Consumption then rises again when people hit their 30s, before briefly dropping after 55, and then beginning to climb again. The study involved factors such as income, local climate and the age, type and size of a person’s home. The increase in energy use at various points in our lifespan (寿命) seems to be the result of life style and how our needs change as we age. Why does demand grow so much in our 30s? “We need more of everything. More space, a bigger TV, two fridges,” says Estiri. The study found that, in warmer parts of the US, energy use increases in people over the age of 65 — probably as a result of increased use of air conditioning. This suggests that there is a feedback effect between climate change and an ageing population that will only make matters worse. Heat waves have become more common in the US in recent years and are expected to become more frequent due to global warming. More older people using more electrical energy to keep cool as temperatures rise could add to emissions (排放), and thus drive more warming until our energy supply becomes entirely fossil fuel-free. “This confluence (汇集) of population, ageing and climate change on energy demand is really important to start thinking about,” says Estiri. Benjamin Sovacool at the University of Sussex, UK, says the work shows the importance of demographics when it comes to cutting carbon emissions. Most modelling of climate change mitigation (减缓气候变化的模型) assumes people’s energy consumption either stays the same or only changes by a small amount over time. “This study directly challenges that entire body of research by forcing it to fight with the temporality and complexity of the consumption of energy,” says Sovacool. Catherine Mitchell at the University of Exeter, UK, says the research could have an important influence on policymakers. “What the paper says is that there is a lot of work about how buildings use energy, but probably not enough about how the people in them use energy,” she says. 12. By saying “not just because we tend to get wealthier” in Paragraph 2, the writer probably means that _______. A. poor people can’t bring down the high demand for energy B. a comfortable life is not the main cause of increased energy use C. there are some other reasons leading to the increase in energy consumption D. people being wealthy or not has nothing to do with the rise of energy consumption 13. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph3? A. Children consumes more energy when they leave home. B. Energy consumption drops briefly before people hit 55. C. The researchers built a model to study the data from US households. D. Energy consumption varies with the change of lifestyle and demand at different ages. 14. Which of the following statements is Hossein Estiri most likely to support? A. Energy will stop increasing when people get older. B. His research could inspire policymakers to change current policies. C. Various factors influencing energy consumption should be considered. D. Old people should use fossil fuel-free rather than electrical energy to keep cool. 15. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. More emphasis should be put on people’s energy use. B. The government can’t do much without the support of the study. C. It is the buildings, not the people inside, that consume the majority of the energy. D. Policymakers have been working on how to cut down people’s energy use. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍全球人口平均年龄上升，老龄化会增加能源消耗，该现象与气候变化形成恶性循环，现有气候模型忽略人口年龄结构对能耗的影响，这项研究能为政策制定提供参考。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Hossein Estiri at Harvard University and Emilio Zagheni of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Germany, have found that energy use increases as we get older, and not just because we tend to get wealthier.(哈佛大学的Hossein Estiri与德国马克斯・普朗克人口研究所的Emilio Zagheni研究发现，随着年龄增长，能源消耗量会上升，且这并不只是因为我们往往变得更富有。)”可知，财富只是能源消耗增加的其中一个原因，还存在其他诱因。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The increase in energy use at various points in our lifespan seems to be the result of life style and how our needs change as we age.(人一生不同阶段的能源消耗增长，似乎是生活方式以及年龄增长带来的需求变化共同导致的。)” 可知，能源消耗会随着不同年龄段的生活方式与需求变化而改变。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段““This confluence of population, ageing and climate change on energy demand is really important to start thin king about,” says Estiri.(Estiri表示：“人口、老龄化与气候变化三者共同作用于能源需求，这一叠加影响非常值得我们展开深入研究。”)”可知，Estiri认为应当综合考量各类影响能源消耗的因素。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““What the paper says is that there is a lot of work about how buildings use energy, but probably not enough about how the people in them use energy,” she says.(她表示：“这篇论文指出，目前已有大量研究探讨建筑本身的能源消耗，但针对建筑内人群能源使用方式的相关研究或许还远远不够。”)” 可知，我们应当更加重视人的能源使用行为。 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Our conversations shape who we are and make us unique individuals. ____16____ As one expert puts it, “The quality of our conversations is closely linked to our personal happiness, as well as our success in both social and work life.” While issues like healthy eating have long been a key focus of public health, we know very little about one of humanity’s most amazing abilities — the ability to have meaningful conversations. ____17____ We struggle to have meaningful talks with people who think differently or come from different backgrounds. All too often, we forget to truly listen to others when they speak, which acts as the basis of empathy and collaboration. Without even noticing, we often give inappropriate responses that hinder good communication. For this reason, we badly need to make conversational skill a public concern. This important skill helps us think more carefully and recognize the great influence of our daily conversations. ____18____ Such conversations damage trust and connection, ultimately ruining our harmonious social relationships. When we engage in real, face-to-face conversations and give each other our full attention, something special unfolds. Our bodies naturally come into harmony with each other; we unconsciously mirror each other’s movements and work in perfect harmony. Research also shows that our brains can synchronize (同步) during meaningful conversations. ____19____ We can begin building our conversational literacy right now, starting with small, intentional daily steps. ____20____ After all, this kind of genuine and uninterrupted conversation will have a profound and lasting impact on the success and emotional health of the family’s youngest members: developing their personal lives, deepening their relationships, and shaping their future careers. A. It also enables us to spot and avoid harmful talks. B. The deeper the talk, the stronger this neural link grows. C. So it’s workable to gather our family for phone-free dinners. D. Many of us don’t know how to handle difficult conversations. E. They can build relationships or break the connections we hold dear. F. However, finding time for deep talks is not always within easy reach. G. Meaningful conversations begin with genuine listening, not quick responses. 【答案】16. E 17. D 18. A 19. B 20. C 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了对话塑造人格、影响幸福与生活，当下人们缺乏深度交流技巧。良好交谈能身心共鸣、大脑同步，我们可从日常小事做起培养交谈素养。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Our conversations shape who we are and make us unique individuals.(我们的交流塑造了我们自身，使我们成为独一无二的个体)”前句提到对话塑造自我、让我们独一无二。E项“它们可以建立关系，也能破坏我们珍视的联系”承接首句，继续阐述对话的重要作用。 【17题详解】 根据后文“We struggle to have meaningful talks with people who think differently or come from different backgrounds. All too often, we forget to truly listen to others when they speak, which acts as the basis of empathy and collaboration. Without even noticing, we often give inappropriate responses that hinder good communication.(我们很难与那些想法不同或来自不同背景的人进行有意义的交流。很多时候，我们会在别人讲话时忘记真正去倾听，而倾听正是建立同理心和合作的基础。不知不觉中，我们常常会给出不恰当的回应，从而阻碍良好的沟通)”可知，后文讲我们很难和观点、背景不同的人深入交流，不会认真倾听。D项“很多人不懂得如何应对棘手的对话”引出本段现状问题。 【18题详解】 根据上文“For this reason, we badly need to make conversational skill a public concern. This important skill helps us think more carefully and recognize the great influence of our daily conversations.(基于此，我们迫切需要将口语表达能力提升成为一项公众关注的议题。这项重要的技能能帮助我们更深入地思考，并认识到日常交流所产生的巨大影响)”以及后文“Such conversations damage trust and connection, ultimately ruining our harmonious social relationships.(这类对话会破坏信任和联系，最终会破坏我们和谐的人际关系)”可知，前句提到交谈技能帮我们认真思考、认识日常对话的影响力；后句讲有害对话的坏处。A项“它也能让我们识别并避开有害谈话”中also 衔接前文，逻辑连贯。 【19题详解】 根据上文“When we engage in real, face-to-face conversations and give each other our full attention, something special unfolds. Our bodies naturally come into harmony with each other; we unconsciously mirror each other’s movements and work in perfect harmony. Research also shows that our brains can synchronize (同步) during meaningful conversations.(当我们进行真实的面对面交流，并全神贯注地倾听对方时，一些特别的事情就会发生。我们的身体自然而然地与对方协调一致；我们会不自觉地模仿对方的动作，并且在交流中达到完美的默契。研究还表明，在有意义的对话中，我们的大脑能够实现同步)”可知，前句提到有意义的对话中大脑会同步。B项“交谈越深入，这种神经联结就越强”承接大脑同步的研究内容。 【20题详解】 根据上文“We can begin building our conversational literacy right now, starting with small, intentional daily steps.(我们现在就可以开始培养我们的对话理解能力了，可以从一些小而有目的的日常行动开始做起)”以及后文“After all, this kind of genuine and uninterrupted conversation will have a profound and lasting impact on the success and emotional health of the family’s youngest members: developing their personal lives, deepening their relationships, and shaping their future careers.(毕竟，这种真诚且连贯的交流会对家庭中年幼成员的成功和心理健康产生深远且持久的影响：有助于他们个人成长、加深彼此关系，并塑造他们未来的职业道路)”可知，前句提到从日常小步骤培养交谈素养；后句讲到家庭、孩子。C项“一家人聚餐放下手机交流是可行的做法”承接日常行动，引出家庭对话的意义。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At sixty years old, Sarah Cook wanted to start a new life.

I spent long hours in the classroom, trying to stay focused on piles of exercises and endless test papers. Like many of my classmates, I believed that success depended on making full use of every second. However, something unexpected began to disturb our routine. Every evening from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., a group of noisy birds called koels (噪鹃) would start singing right outside our classroom window. Their cry was sharp — a single loud note repeated again and again, like someone shouting the same word without stopping. First came one bird, and then several others joined in. The sound was over 8000 Hz, high enough to cut through the quiet of the evening. And they never seemed to get tired. One would pause, another would start, and the chorus went on and on. At the beginning, I didn’t pay much attention. In fact, there were moments when the sound felt almost pleasant, reminding me that spring had quietly arrived. But as the days went by, the singing became increasingly frequent and intense. My homework was full of mistakes, and I found myself reading the same line over and over. The more I tried to focus, the more the birds seemed to be singing right into my ears. Some classmates began to complain. One of them even joked that the birds seemed to have better energy than we did. Yet others remained silent, choosing to endure it. As for me, I felt caught in between. I knew the birds meant no harm, but I also couldn’t ignore the pressure we were under. One night, after another ruined study session, I lay in bed with my ears still ringing. I couldn’t take it anymore. 注意： 1．续写词数应为 150 左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I decided to do something to make a change. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The headmaster received my letter, but he refused my request. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】【参考范文】 I decided to do something to make a change. The next morning, I wrote a letter to the headmaster, explaining how the constant noise had been affecting our concentration and performance. I suggested removing the koels’ nests near our classroom and allowing us to study in a quieter room during that hour. Some classmates supported my idea and signed their names below mine, hoping that our voices would be heard. As I handed in the letter, I felt a sense of relief, believing that at least I had tried to improve the situation. The headmaster received my letter, but he refused my request. He explained that the birds were part of the natural environment and deserved our respect. Instead of removing them, he encouraged us to adjust ourselves and find ways to stay focused. At first, I felt disappointed and even a little annoyed. But gradually, I began to follow his advice. I started wearing earplugs and taking short breaks to clear my mind. Over time, I realized that the birds’ singing no longer disturbed me as much as before. To my surprise, their voices even became a reminder to stay calm under pressure. This small episode made me realize that we are not the masters of nature but merely a part of it; only by learning to live with its rhythms can we find true peace within ourselves. 【解析】 【导语】本文以高考备考遭遇噪鹃鸣叫干扰为线索，讲述“我”因鸟鸣影响学习心态，写信向校长请求消除干扰被拒，最终学会自我调节、与自然共处并收获成长的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ① 由第一段首句可知，接下来可描写作者写信向校长说明鸟鸣对学习的干扰、提出整改请求，同时获得同学支持，递交信件后内心稍稍释然。 ② 由第二段首句可知，接下来可描写校长拒绝的原因、对作者的开导，以及作者调整心态、寻找专注方法，最终接纳自然之声、领悟人生道理。 2. 续写线索 写信向校长反映鸟鸣干扰——联名同学提交请求——校长拒绝并阐释自然尊重的道理——作者调整自我、寻找学习方法——适应环境、领悟与自然共处的人生哲理 3.词类激活 行为类 ①影响：affect/influence/have an impact on ②提交：hand in/submit ③打扰：disturb/bother 情绪类 ①失望的：disappointed/frustrated ②生气的：annoyed/angry 【点睛】【高分句型1】The next morning, I wrote a letter to the headmaster, explaining how the constant noise had been affecting our concentration and performance. （运用了现在分词作状语以及how引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】This small episode made me realize that we are not the masters of nature but merely a part of it; only by learning to live with its rhythms can we find true peace within ourselves.（运用了that引导的宾语从句以及部分倒装） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二英语试题 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2．每小题选出答案后，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。在试题卷上作答无效。 3．考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 注意，回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

This initiative encourages students to think creatively about how they can make a tangible environmental impact on campus. Grant Levels: Seed Grant (Up to $ 500): This grant is designed for individuals who want to lead awareness campaigns or small-scale projects, such as pilot recycling programs or single-use plastic reduction campaigns. These initiatives can significantly raise awareness about sustainability issues among students and staff, providing the first step in broader environmental action. Impact Grant ($ 501 - $3,000): For projects involving at least two departments, this grant supports collaborative efforts aimed at bringing about tangible changes in campus infrastructure. Examples include energy-saving lighting systems, waste diversion projects, or sustainability-focused renovations. The aim is to have measurable, long-lasting impact on the campus environment. Legacy Grant ($ 3,000+): This grant supports long-term solutions that have the potential to be implemented across all campuses. Legacy projects must have clear, permanent environmental benefits and are expected to continue even after the initial funding period. These projects require the support of a faculty advisor, demonstrating their academic or institutional significance. Key Dates (2026): April 15: Proposal submission deadline. May 10: Shortlisted candidates will be notified for an interview. June 1: Funding awarded. Evaluation Criteria: Originality (30%): Does the project offer a fresh perspective that can inspire others? Scalability (40%): Is there potential to expand this project to other campuses or institutions? Cost-efficiency (30%): Do the environmental benefits justify the project’s budget and investment? Note: Projects that are purely theoretical without a practical application on campus will not be considered. All equipment purchased with the grant remains the property of the USO and must be used for the designated project. 1. What does a project need to get a Legacy Grant? A. A plastic reduction campaign. B. A minimum two-year timeline. C. A professional recommendation. D. A cross-departmental cooperation. 2. What is the primary focus of the “Scalability” criterion? A. Balance between cost and benefits. B. Creativity behind the student’s idea. C. Direct influence on the local campus. D. Potential for wider project application. 3. Which project will likely be rejected? A. A student paper on global warming history. B. A plan for solar benches in the central park. C. A team effort to ban plastic straws in canteens. D. An app for dorm students to share leftover food. B On a sunny morning in a small courtyard at Walt Whitman Middle School, a 14-year-old held a chicken gently in her arms. “Her name is Betsy,” Maicy Nealy, an eighth-grader, said. Nealy used to be afraid of chickens as a young child. Now she spends hours after school collecting their eggs and cleaning the coop (鸡舍). For her, the chickens make her life organized and develop her interest in agriculture. Now she can’t imagine adulthood without chickens involved. She says when she grows up, she plans to be “a lawyer that owns chickens”. The chicken program at Whitman started about a year ago, when after-school program specialist Lee Maguire planned a month-long embryo (胚胎) development program for kids to learn about biology. Throughout the school year, they’ve observed students gaining not only companionship from the animals but some life skills. The students refill the feed supply — which costs about $25 for 50 pounds — with money from selling some of the eggs the chickens produce at $5 to $10 a dozen, making the project self-sustaining. The chickens make the school a calmer place. This good part of the program was soon noticed by the school’s counselors (辅导员) who help students with problems. Sometimes they take students who are having a hard time to the chicken coop outside, to help them relax and clear their bad feelings. “At this moment, they don’t have to worry about having no place to live, no enough food, or how to improve their grades,” one counselor said. “The chickens don’t judge. They just give love. It’s a quiet place to get away from stress.” As school ends, students head home to prepare for high school, while the chickens stay with Maguire for the summer. But first, he has a surprise. “I bought more baby chicks,” he said. “I got them eight more and I’m looking forward to boosting my students’ learning interest further.” 4. What can be learned from Maicy Nealy’s story? A. She chose her job by caring for animals. B. She mastered professional farming skills. C. She went from fear to lifelong love for chickens. D. She kept close relationships with outdoor animals. 5. Why did Maguire start the chicken program first? A. To improve students’ teamwork skills. B. To help students deal with loneliness. C. To create a sustainable food source for the school. D. To provide hands-on science learning experiences. 6. What impressed the school counselors about the program? A. Its potential to generate school income. B. Its healing value for troubled students. C. Its improvement in academic performance. D. Its popularity among small animal lovers. 7. What is the best title for the passage? A. Education with Wings B. Life with Chickens C. Skills from Nature D. Peace from Animals C The oil and gas industry may be emitting about three-times the amount of climate-warming methane than government estimates show, according to a new study from Stanford University, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory and other organizations in Nature. Methane (甲烷) is the main component of natural gas and among the greenhouse gases heating the planet, which is produced when extracting crude oil. Specific measurements varied from a low of less than 1%, or about what the Environmental Protection Agency estimates, at a site in Pennsylvania to a high of nearly 10% in New Mexico. Researchers found the higher percentages of methane released generally had something in common. “These are places where production is mostly focusing on oil,” says Evan Sherwin, a research scientist at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory who conducted the research as a postdoctoral researcher at Stanford University. But oil and gas often come out of the ground together, and if there wasn’t a way to transport the less-valuable gas to where it could be sold, leaks were higher. In Pennsylvania, by contrast, drillers are focused on producing natural gas, and there, very little of the methane was wasted. That complicates an argument many in the industry have made, generally in opposition to tighter government regulations on methane. They say drillers have the incentive to capture gas leaks so they can sell the fossil fuel. But that’s not always possible, if industry hasn’t built the pipelines and other infrastructure to get the gas to consumers. In this study, researchers estimate the industry releases about 6.2 million tons of methane a year, valued at $1.08 billion. “Emissions of methane from fossil fuel operations remain unacceptably high,” said Tim Gould, chief economist at the International Energy Agency, during a Tuesday call with reporters. The organization’s Global Methane Tracker shows methane from the energy sector was near the record high level in 2023. Despite that, the IEA concludes that if countries fully implement existing pledges on methane reductions, that would make significant progress toward achieving global climate goals. “2024 could mark a turning point and policies are starting to be put into place. Greater transparency is coming. Awareness is spreading and we have enhanced ability to track large leaks and act quickly to shut them down,” Gould said. Gould said he hopes to have good news to share, about a reduction in methane emissions, next year. 8. What can we infer from paragraph 2? A.

D Average age is rising around the world — a demographic (人口统计) change that may pose a significant challenge to efforts to slow down climate change. Hossein Estiri at Harvard University and Emilio Zagheni of the Max Planck Institute for Demographic Research, Germany, have found that energy use increases as we get older, and not just because we tend to get wealthier. An ageing population could mean a greater proportion of society with higher energy use, their study suggests. They combined two decades’ worth of data from thousands of US households and used this to build a model to reveal how energy use varied across 17 age groups between 1987 and 2009. They found that, on average, children’s energy consumption climbs as they grow up, before dropping slightly when they leave home. Consumption then rises again when people hit their 30s, before briefly dropping after 55, and then beginning to climb again. The study involved factors such as income, local climate and the age, type and size of a person’s home. The increase in energy use at various points in our lifespan (寿命) seems to be the result of life style and how our needs change as we age. Why does demand grow so much in our 30s? “We need more of everything. More space, a bigger TV, two fridges,” says Estiri. The study found that, in warmer parts of the US, energy use increases in people over the age of 65 — probably as a result of increased use of air conditioning. This suggests that there is a feedback effect between climate change and an ageing population that will only make matters worse. Heat waves have become more common in the US in recent years and are expected to become more frequent due to global warming. More older people using more electrical energy to keep cool as temperatures rise could add to emissions (排放), and thus drive more warming until our energy supply becomes entirely fossil fuel-free. “This confluence (汇集) of population, ageing and climate change on energy demand is really important to start thinking about,” says Estiri. Benjamin Sovacool at the University of Sussex, UK, says the work shows the importance of demographics when it comes to cutting carbon emissions. Most modelling of climate change mitigation (减缓气候变化的模型) assumes people’s energy consumption either stays the same or only changes by a small amount over time. “This study directly challenges that entire body of research by forcing it to fight with the temporality and complexity of the consumption of energy,” says Sovacool. Catherine Mitchell at the University of Exeter, UK, says the research could have an important influence on policymakers. “What the paper says is that there is a lot of work about how buildings use energy, but probably not enough about how the people in them use energy,” she says. 12. By saying “not just because we tend to get wealthier” in Paragraph 2, the writer probably means that _______. A. poor people can’t bring down the high demand for energy B. a comfortable life is not the main cause of increased energy use C. there are some other reasons leading to the increase in energy consumption D. people being wealthy or not has nothing to do with the rise of energy consumption 13. What does the author intend to tell us in Paragraph3? A. Children consumes more energy when they leave home. B. Energy consumption drops briefly before people hit 55. C. The researchers built a model to study the data from US households. D. Energy consumption varies with the change of lifestyle and demand at different ages. 14. Which of the following statements is Hossein Estiri most likely to support? A. Energy will stop increasing when people get older. B. His research could inspire policymakers to change current policies. C. Various factors influencing energy consumption should be considered. D. Old people should use fossil fuel-free rather than electrical energy to keep cool. 15. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. More emphasis should be put on people’s energy use. B. The government can’t do much without the support of the study. C. It is the buildings, not the people inside, that consume the majority of the energy. D. Policymakers have been working on how to cut down people’s energy use. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Our conversations shape who we are and make us unique individuals. ____16____ As one expert puts it, “The quality of our conversations is closely linked to our personal happiness, as well as our success in both social and work life.” While issues like healthy eating have long been a key focus of public health, we know very little about one of humanity’s most amazing abilities — the ability to have meaningful conversations. ____17____ We struggle to have meaningful talks with people who think differently or come from different backgrounds. All too often, we forget to truly listen to others when they speak, which acts as the basis of empathy and collaboration. Without even noticing, we often give inappropriate responses that hinder good communication. For this reason, we badly need to make conversational skill a public concern. This important skill helps us think more carefully and recognize the great influence of our daily conversations. ____18____ Such conversations damage trust and connection, ultimately ruining our harmonious social relationships. When we engage in real, face-to-face conversations and give each other our full attention, something special unfolds. Our bodies naturally come into harmony with each other; we unconsciously mirror each other’s movements and work in perfect harmony. Research also shows that our brains can synchronize (同步) during meaningful conversations. ____19____ We can begin building our conversational literacy right now, starting with small, intentional daily steps. ____20____ After all, this kind of genuine and uninterrupted conversation will have a profound and lasting impact on the success and emotional health of the family’s youngest members: developing their personal lives, deepening their relationships, and shaping their future careers. A. It also enables us to spot and avoid harmful talks. B. The deeper the talk, the stronger this neural link grows. C. So it’s workable to gather our family for phone-free dinners. D. Many of us don’t know how to handle difficult conversations. E. They can build relationships or break the connections we hold dear. F. However, finding time for deep talks is not always within easy reach. G. Meaningful conversations begin with genuine listening, not quick responses. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At sixty years old, Sarah Cook wanted to start a new life.

I spent long hours in the classroom, trying to stay focused on piles of exercises and endless test papers. Like many of my classmates, I believed that success depended on making full use of every second. However, something unexpected began to disturb our routine. Every evening from 6 p.m. to 7 p.m., a group of noisy birds called koels (噪鹃) would start singing right outside our classroom window. Their cry was sharp — a single loud note repeated again and again, like someone shouting the same word without stopping. First came one bird, and then several others joined in. The sound was over 8000 Hz, high enough to cut through the quiet of the evening. And they never seemed to get tired. One would pause, another would start, and the chorus went on and on. At the beginning, I didn’t pay much attention. In fact, there were moments when the sound felt almost pleasant, reminding me that spring had quietly arrived. But as the days went by, the singing became increasingly frequent and intense. My homework was full of mistakes, and I found myself reading the same line over and over. The more I tried to focus, the more the birds seemed to be singing right into my ears. Some classmates began to complain. One of them even joked that the birds seemed to have better energy than we did. Yet others remained silent, choosing to endure it. As for me, I felt caught in between. I knew the birds meant no harm, but I also couldn’t ignore the pressure we were under. One night, after another ruined study session, I lay in bed with my ears still ringing. I couldn’t take it anymore. 注意： 1．续写词数应为 150 左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I decided to do something to make a change. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The headmaster received my letter, but he refused my request. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
