细节理解类在高考阅读卷中占相当大比例,这类题考查对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节的理解,要求在快速阅读文章的同时,能从中获取某些特定的信息。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该类题的关键。
细节理解题一般根据短文提供的信息和事实进行提问,命题人往往通过对文章细节加以改写来考查考生准确理解细节的能力。细节理解题在高考阅读理解中占有相当大的比例,一般包括:
1.直接信息题——在原文中可直接找到答案,常用who,what,when,where,why和how等提问。
2.间接信息题——需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语意上的转换,两者存在表达上的差异,有时需要进行加工或整理方能得出结论。
3.数字计算题——文章中直接给出来相关数据,要经过具体的计算才能够得出答案。
4.排列顺序题——根据事件发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系,找出事件发生的正确顺序。
5.图表、图画题——有的图表、图画出现在阅读理解文章中,有的出现在选项中,它们的出现增加了试题的直观性,同时也暗含与文章内容相关的信息。
推理判断属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题,是指在理解原文字面意义的基础上,通过对语篇逻辑关系的分析和细节的暗示,作出一定的判断和推理,从而得出文章的深层含义及隐含意义。
1. 推断隐含意义,题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude等标志性词语,根据题干内容,在文中找到定位词或句,理解信息句的字面意思,结合已有常识,进行符合情理的推断。
2. 推断作者的观点和态度,要注意作者或文中人物的措辞及表达情感、态度或观点的词语、句子,明确是问谁对什么事的态度,明确是作者或文中人物的观点而非主观臆断。
3. 推断写作意图,要通过文中所列事物使读者感受到其所传递的想法。
4. 推断文章出处或读者对象,需要根据文章体裁、题材、内容、措辞判断,这类问题应从文章的内容或结构来判断其出处。

English Market Towns to Visit in the UK
English market towns come in many shapes and sizes. Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop.
Hereford, Herefordshire
Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you’ll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It’s also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there.
Ludlow, Shropshire
Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a “must explore” medieval stronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September.
Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere-hanging baskets, window boxes, and planters-just what you imagine in an attractive English market town.
Mevagissey, Cornwall
Even if you haven’t been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you’ve probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor (港口) took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don’t leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It’s delicious.
21. Where can you find an original copy of the Magna Carta?
A. In the Ludlow Castle. B. In the Foodie Center of England.
C. In the Hereford Cathedral. D. In the Black and White House Museum.
22. What is a feature of Shrewsbury Town Center?
A. It’s situated near a big island. B. It’s almost surrounded by water.
C. It’s known for its flower festival. D. It’s easily accessible from London.
23. What does the author suggest visitors do in Mevagissey?

The greening of planes, trains and automobiles
Moving goods and people around the world is responsible for a large part of global CO₂ emissions (排放). As the world races to decarbonize everything, it faces particular problems with transportation — which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Here’s the breakdown of the emissions in 2018 for different modes of transport.
The fuels for transport need to be not just green, cheap and powerful, but also lightweight and safe enough to be carried around. Each mode of transport has its specific fuel needs. Much is still to be settled, but here are some of the solutions to get us going green.
This energy transition (变革) is global, and the amount of renewable energy the world will need is “a little bit mind-blowing,” says mechanical engineer Keith Wipke at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. It’s estimated that the global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050. Fortunately, analyses suggest that renewables are up to the task. “We need to speed up the development of green energy, and it will all get used,” says Wipke.
21.What percentage of global transport emissions did road vehicles account for in 2018?
A. 11.6%. B. 45.1%. C. 74.5%. D. 86.1%.
22.Which mode of transport can go green comparatively easily?
A. Planes. B. Trucks. C. Trains. D. Ships.
23.What does Wipke suggest regarding energy transition?
A. Limiting fuel consumption.
B. Putting more effort into renewables.
C. Improving energy efficiency.
D. Making electricity more affordable.

分析近几年的高考试题,可以发现阅读理解第一篇都是考查应用文,话题接近社会生活实际,但是每年的侧重点不同,考点覆盖时间、地点、价格、人物、规则、交通、报名要求。如: 2026年新课标I卷A篇介绍索菲体育场本月足球赛事安排、周边配套酒店以及入场停车的各项具体规则要求来命题;2026年新课标II卷A篇华盛顿特区及周边四家知名中餐馆的菜品、订餐方式、营业时间与详细地址信息来命制试题。2026年浙江1月阅读理解A篇伯灵顿市公共艺术项目联合文化日征集本地艺术家作品,涵盖视觉与文学类型,明确报酬、时间节点及提交材料要求,作品将在指定时段展示来出题。对于2027年高考题,很可能会与活动安排、科技成果、志愿招募、课程大纲、场馆指南、政府项目通知等主题相关,需重点关注这些方面信息知识点。

(2025-2026学年江西省宜春市丰城中学高三年级下学期英语一模模拟英语试题)
Nowadays, more and more emphasis is being placed on a building’s “green” certification. On Earth Day, look through four noteworthy green buildings from around the world.
One Central Park (Sydney, Australia)
A park at the foot of the building literally continues up the structure, as vegetation of 250 species of Australian plants and flowers cover One Central Park. An architectural website says it has 25% less energy consumption compared with a conventional building of its size.
Shanghai Tower (Shanghai, China)
Shanghai Tower has a transparent second skin wrapped around the building which creates a zone of captured air that serves as natural ventilation (通风), reducing energy costs. Besides, 270 wind devices incorporated into the right side power its outside lights.
Marco Polo Tower (Hamburg, Germany)
Each floor of Marco Polo Tower is turned a few degrees away from the one below, around an axis (轴线). This allows for recessed (嵌入式) buildings that protect residents from direct sun. This tower also includes many other green features. There is a heat exchanger on the roof that turns warm air into a cooling system. And the natural ventilation can make residents sleep soundly without being disrupted by outside noise.
Torre Reforma (Mexico City, Mexico)
Torre Reforma rises to 807 feet and stands tall on energy-saving measures, too. The tower’s slimness maximizes the amount of natural light let in, which in turn cuts down on the need for electric lights. And when the weather permits, controls can automatically open windows to let air in.
21.What do we know about One Central Park?
A.It makes full use of solar energy.
B.It uses a great cooling system.
C.It has many plants and flowers.
D.It has self-control windows.
22.What do the Shanghai Tower and Marco Polo Tower have in common?
A.They are naturally ventilated.
B.They are both transparent.
C.They generate electricity by wind.
D.They harvest energy from sunshine.
23.Where can the text be found?
A.In science fiction. B.In an architectural magazine.
C.In an autobiography. D.In a weather report.

With the development of technology, life is made much easier when you travel around. Here are some top travel apps for you to use.
Yelp
When you are in a new location and need a quick recommendation, Yelp comes in handy. It gives insights into the quality of businesses and services, from restaurants to the way in which they work, based on user reviews. The users can certainly make unfair judgements for personal reasons at times, but Yelp often at least lets you get a sense of what to expect.
Zomato
In China, there is a good chance you have never heard of Zomato. In some countries, however, it is more popular than Yelp, and it covers the same ground. Zomato is a remarkable crowd-sourced review website, mostly for restaurants. In some regions, you can order delivery food through Zomato, too.
Happy Cow
If you are a person who doesn’t eat meat or fish, or even doesn’t use animal products such as meat, milk or eggs or if you are only looking for a healthy meal option after eating not-so-healthy meals for several days in a row, you are sure to appreciate Happy Cow. The app and web- site help you find restaurants, cafes, health food stores, and other places to get a meat-free meal.
Tripadvisor
You can read different reviews of hotels, restaurants and even activities, written by members of the Tripadvisor community, as well as see photos they have uploaded so you know what to expect before you arrive. Tripadvisor has relationships with various booking sites, too, which means once you finish researching hotels or restaurants, you can usually reserve them with just a few extra clicks.

Technological Innovations That Aim To Make Roads SaferSmarter Traffic Signages
Traffic signs may not be visible for everyone to see, with some drivers even forgetting what they mean. A proposal for “smart signs” has floated recently with the goal of signaling a car’s receiver of what the road sign means. The driver can receive the information through a display on their car’s dashboard or through voice alert. This solution will not be affected by the weather or lighting which can increase one’s safety while driving
.Immediate Car Crash Detection
Although there are car accidents that result in minor injuries, the result of a crash can often be life-altering. This is where having vehicle communication technology can help. This system will be able to send out a notification of the crash to the nearest emergency response unit to get immediate help. It can also inform other drivers that a car crash has occurred so they can take appropriate measures to avoid adding to the collision (碰撞)
.Safety Technology for Intersections
Crossing an intersection can be tricky as you will never know if other vehicles will be approaching until it is too late. This particular tech can combine sensors as well as cameras to determine if there is incoming traffic or a pedestrian even. It is also possible to use this technology to adjust the light timers to help with the incoming flow of traffic in the intersection.
Traffic Violation Detection and Notification
Another technology innovation that may help roads become safer is the automatic transmission of information when a violation has occurred. The combination of camera monitoring as well as sensors can help determine if a driver disobeyed any traffic rules and will notify them immediately. The automatic notification will be recorded into the vehicle’s black box, which prevents the driver from making excuses.
21.What is an advantage of the Smarter Traffic Signages system?
A.It makes driving fully automatic. B.It is easier to operate on the road.
C.It can replace traffic voice alerts. D.It works in any weather condition.
22.What can Immediate Car Crash Detection do?
A.Prevent car accidents from happening. B.Inform emergency services about a crash.
C.Reduce the damage caused by collisions. D.Remind drivers to observe traffic rules.
23.Which of the following can help avoid traffic jams?
A.Smarter Traffic Signages.
B.Immediate Car Crash Detection.
C.Safety Technology for Intersections.
D.Traffic Violation Detection and Notification.

Highland Cow Art
Highland cow art has become increasingly popular for its unique combination of rural charm and artistic variety. Artists such as Mark Gemmell, Domonique Brown, and Steven Brown create lively images of these famous Scottish animals through different styles — some realistic, some abstract, and some playful. Their works often show Scotland’s natural scenery and cultural traditions, making each painting a celebration of the region’s beauty. When choosing highland cow art for your home, consider the size and colors of the piece to ensure it fits well with your room. Whether you like detailed realism or striking abstraction, there is a style for everyone, adding special character to any space.
Styles and Techniques
Highland cow art covers a wide range of styles, from lifelike paintings to creative abstract works. Realistic techniques focus on careful details to show the texture (纹理) and personality of the cattle, while abstract methods use bright colors and imaginative shapes to create emotional effects. This variety not only shows the artists’ skill but also meets different personal tastes.
Realistic Painting Approaches
Creating lifelike paintings of highland cows requires excellent skills in layering (分层), blending (混合), and careful brushwork to truly capture their textures and expressions. Photorealism, one approach to realistic art, involves copying the animals with extreme precision, using special brush techniques to produce natural-looking textures and depth. To achieve this level of realism, artists must: first, carefully observe the animal’s body structure, colors, and proportions to ensure accuracy; second, apply multiple layers of paint to capture the complex details of fur and expressions; third, smoothly mix colors to create natural transitions and realistic shading.
21.What should be considered when choosing highland cow art for home decoration?
A.The artist’s reputation and fame. B.The size and colors of the artwork.
C.The historical value of the painting. D.The emotional effects of abstract styles.
22.What do realistic techniques in highland cow art emphasize?

A.Studying the animal’s body structure closely.
B.Mixing colors smoothly to create natural shading.
C.Applying many layers of paint to capture details.
D.Using special brushes to produce depth and texture.

【技巧点拨】
细节理解类在高考阅读卷中占相当大比例,这类题考查对阅读材料中的某一具体事实和细节的理解,要求在快速阅读文章的同时,能从中获取某些特定的信息。抓住文段中的事实和细节是做好该类题的关键。
细节理解题一般根据短文提供的信息和事实进行提问,命题人往往通过对文章细节加以改写来考查考生准确理解细节的能力。细节理解题在高考阅读理解中占有相当大的比例,一般包括:
1.直接信息题——在原文中可直接找到答案,常用who,what,when,where,why和how等提问。
2.间接信息题——需要将题目信息与原文相关信息进行语意上的转换,两者存在表达上的差异,有时需要进行加工或整理方能得出结论。
3.数字计算题——文章中直接给出来相关数据,要经过具体的计算才能够得出答案。
4.排列顺序题——根据事件发生的先后顺序和句子之间的逻辑关系,找出事件发生的正确顺序。
5.图表、图画题——有的图表、图画出现在阅读理解文章中,有的出现在选项中,它们的出现增加了试题的直观性,同时也暗含与文章内容相关的信息。
推理判断属于主观性较强的高层次阅读理解题,是指在理解原文字面意义的基础上,通过对语篇逻辑关系的分析和细节的暗示,作出一定的判断和推理,从而得出文章的深层含义及隐含意义。
1. 推断隐含意义,题干中通常含有infer, suggest, imply, conclude等标志性词语,根据题干内容,在文中找到定位词或句,理解信息句的字面意思,结合已有常识,进行符合情理的推断。
2. 推断作者的观点和态度,要注意作者或文中人物的措辞及表达情感、态度或观点的词语、句子,明确是问谁对什么事的态度,明确是作者或文中人物的观点而非主观臆断。
3. 推断写作意图,要通过文中所列事物使读者感受到其所传递的想法。
4. 推断文章出处或读者对象,需要根据文章体裁、题材、内容、措辞判断,这类问题应从文章的内容或结构来判断其出处。

Passage 1
(2025·全国二卷阅读A篇)
English Market Towns to Visit in the UK
English market towns come in many shapes and sizes. Each has a personality shaped by the goods and services produced and traded for centuries. But each town has more to do than shop.
Hereford, Herefordshire
Hereford has remained a lively market town since 1189. Skirting the town square, you’ll find lovely shops, eateries, and the Black and White House Museum. The Hereford Cathedral is the most impressive building in town. It’s also home to an ancient library. One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there.
Ludlow, Shropshire
Ludlow is known as the Foodie Center of England. Butcher shops, greengrocers, bakeries, and cheese shops line the town square. Bordering the square, the Ludlow Castle is a “must explore” medieval stronghold. The three-day Ludlow Food Festival is held each September.
Shrewsbury, Shropshire
Getting to Shrewsbury Town Center from London is challenging but worth the anxiety. The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. The shape creates a perfect market where goods could be shipped and received using the river as a highway. Flowers are everywhere-hanging baskets, window boxes, and planters-just what you imagine in an attractive English market town.
Mevagissey, Cornwall
Even if you haven’t been to the small fishing village Mevagissey, you’ve probably seen it in a movie or British TV show. The working harbor (港口) took shape in 1774. Fishermen go out to sea daily and sell their fish in harbor-side markets. Don’t leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It’s delicious.
21. Where can you find an original copy of the Magna Carta?
A. In the Ludlow Castle. B. In the Foodie Center of England.
C. In the Hereford Cathedral. D. In the Black and White House Museum.
22. What is a feature of Shrewsbury Town Center?
A. It’s situated near a big island. B. It’s almost surrounded by water.
C. It’s known for its flower festival. D. It’s easily accessible from London.
23. What does the author suggest visitors do in Mevagissey?
A. Try the Cornish pie. B. Watch a British TV show.
C. Go fishing in the sea. D. Take pictures of the harbor.
【答案】21.C 2 2.B 23.A
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,描述了四个值得一游的历史悠久、风景各异的英国集贸小镇,带领读者感受自然与人文景观的融合之美。
【详解】
21.C 事实细节题 根据题干中的 an original copy of the Magna Carta 可将答案定位到小标题Hereford,Herefordshire 下的最后一句One of the four original copies of the Magna Carta is displayed there. ( 《大章》 的四份原件之一就陈列在这里。),故选C。
22. B 推理判断题 根据小标题Shrewsbury,Shropshire 下的第二句The River Severn has a significant turn through town, almost making an island of Shrewsbury Town Center. 可知, 塞文河(River Severn) 在 Shrewsbury小镇中拐了一个大弯,几乎把镇中心变成了一个小岛,由此可推出,Shrewsbury镇中心几乎四面环水,故选B。
23.A事实细节题 根据小标题Mevagissey,Cornwall 下的最后两句Don't leave the harbor without a traditional Cornish pie. It's delicious.可知, 建议游客在Mevagissey小镇一定要品尝传统美味的康沃尔馅饼,故选A。

Passage 1
(2025·新高考卷I阅读A篇)
The greening of planes, trains and automobiles
Moving goods and people around the world is responsible for a large part of global CO₂ emissions (排放). As the world races to decarbonize everything, it faces particular problems with transportation — which accounts for about a quarter of our energy-related greenhouse gas emissions. Here’s the breakdown of the emissions in 2018 for different modes of transport.
The fuels for transport need to be not just green, cheap and powerful, but also lightweight and safe enough to be carried around. Each mode of transport has its specific fuel needs. Much is still to be settled, but here are some of the solutions to get us going green.
This energy transition (变革) is global, and the amount of renewable energy the world will need is “a little bit mind-blowing,” says mechanical engineer Keith Wipke at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. It’s estimated that the global demand for electricity could more than double by 2050. Fortunately, analyses suggest that renewables are up to the task. “We need to speed up the development of green energy, and it will all get used,” says Wipke.
21.What percentage of global transport emissions did road vehicles account for in 2018?
A. 11.6%. B. 45.1%. C. 74.5%. D. 86.1%.
22.Which mode of transport can go green comparatively easily?
A. Planes. B. Trucks. C. Trains. D. Ships.
23.What does Wipke suggest regarding energy transition?
A. Limiting fuel consumption.
B. Putting more effort into renewables.
C. Improving energy efficiency.
D. Making electricity more affordable.
【答案】 21. C 22. C 23.B
【导读】本文是一篇说明文,文章以 “交通领域的绿色化” 为核心,客观介绍了全球交通碳排放的现状,不同交通方式的解决方案以及能源变革中我们应该努力的方向。
【详解】
21. C 事实细节题 根据第一个图表可知,ROAD VEHICLES 包括 ROAD (PASSENGER) 和 ROAD (GOODS) 两部分,它们在 2018 年全球交通领域的温室气体排放总量中的比重分别是 45.1% 和 29.4%,相加即为 ROAD VEHICLES 的比重 74.5%。
22. C 推理判断题 根据第二个图表可知,PLANES – Synthetic hydrocarbons 部分,航空领域脱碳困难;TRUCKS – Hydrogen fuel cells 部分,生产绿色氢气造价很高;TRAINS – Electricity 部分,目前部分火车已经实现了电气化,其他火车也可以通过相对简单的方式实现电气化;SHIPS – Liquid ammonia 部分,液氨则不容易点燃,而且需要重新设计发动机。因此综合对比,C 项正确。
23. B 事实细节题 根据关键词 Wipke 定位到文章最后一段,再根据末句 We need to speed up the development of green energy ... 可知,Wipke 建议加速绿色能源的开发与利用,即加大对可再生能源的投入。

Passage 7
(2024•浙江1月高考•阅读A)
Tom Sawyer Play Is an Adventure
A 35-minute hand-clapping, foot-stomping musical version of a Mark Twain favorite returns with this Tall Stacks festival.
“Tom Sawyer: A River Adventure” has all the good stuff, including the fence painting, the graveyard, the island and the cave. It is adapted by Joe McDonough, with music by David Kisor. That’s the local stage writing team that creates many of the Children’s Theatre of Cincinnati’s original musicals, along with the holiday family musicals at Ensemble Theatre.
This year Nathan Turner of Burlington is Tom Sawyer, and Robbie McMath of Fort Mitchell is Huck Finn.
Tumer, a 10th-grader at School for Creative and Performing Arts, is a familiar presence on Cincinnati’s stages. He is a star act or of Children’s Theatre, having played leading roles in “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and “The Wizard of Oz,” and is fresh from Jersey Production “Ragtime”.
McMath is a junior at Beechwood High School. He was in the cast of “Tom Sawyer” when it was first performed and is a Children’s Theatre regular, with five shows to his credit. This summer he attended Kentucky’s Governor’s School for the Arts in Musical Theatre.
Note to teachers: Children’s Theatre has a study guide demonstrating how math and science can be taught through “Tom Sawyer.” For downloadable lessons, visit the official website of Children’s Theatre.
21.Who wrote the music for “Tom Sawyer: A River Adventure”?
A.David Kisor. B.Joe McDonough.
C.Nathan Turner. D.Robbie McMath.
22.What can we learn about the two actors?
A.They study in the same school. B.They worked together in ”Ragtime“.
C.They are experienced on stage. D.They became friends ten years ago.
23.What does Children’s Theatre provide for teachers?
A.Research funding. B.Training opportunities.
C.Technical support. D.Educational resources.
【答案】21.A 22.C 23.D
【导语】本文是一篇应用文,文章主要介绍由马克·吐温的作品所改编的音乐剧《汤姆·索亚:河上历险记》。21.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It is adapted by Joe McDonough, with music by David Kisor.(本剧由乔·麦克多诺改编,大卫·基索作曲。)”可知,本剧是由大卫·基索作曲的。故选A项。
22.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Tumer, a 10th-grader at School for Creative and Performing Arts, is a familiar presence on Cincinnati’s stages. He is a star act or of Children’s Theatre, having played leading roles in “The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” and “The Wizard of Oz,” and is fresh from Jersey Production “Ragtime”.(Tumer是一名创意与表演艺术学校的10年级学生,是辛辛那提舞台上的常客。他是儿童剧院的明星演员,曾在《断头谷的传说》和《绿野仙踪》中担任主角,也是新泽西制作公司‘Ragtime’的新成员。)”可知,Tumer是辛辛那提舞台上的常客,儿童剧院的明星演员,曾在《断头谷的传说》和《绿野仙踪》中担任主角;根据第五段中的“McMath is a junior at Beechwood High School. He was in the cast of “Tom Sewyer” when it was first performed and is a Children’s Theatre regular, with five shows to his credit.(McMath是比奇伍德高中的三年级学生。他是《汤姆·休厄》首演时的演员,也是儿童剧院的常客,演出了五场。)”可知,McMath也是儿童剧院的常客;综合以上信息可知,这两位演员在舞台上经验丰富。故选C项。
23.细节理解题。根据尾段中的“Note to teachers: Children’s Theatre has a study guide demonstrating how math and science can be taught through “Tom Sawyer.” For downloadable lessons, visit the official website of Children’s Theatre.(给老师们的提示:儿童剧院有一份学习指南,展示了如何通过《汤姆·索亚》教授数学和科学。如欲下载课程,请访问儿童剧院官方网站。)”可知,儿童剧院为教师提供了一份学习指南,展示如何通过《汤姆·索亚》教授数学和科学,可通过儿童剧院的网站下载课程;由此可知,儿童剧院为教师提供了教育资源。故选D项。
分析近几年的高考试题,可以发现阅读理解第一篇都是考查应用文,话题接近社会生活实际,但是每年的侧重点不同,考点覆盖时间、地点、价格、人物、规则、交通、报名要求。如: 2026年新课标I卷A篇介绍索菲体育场本月足球赛事安排、周边配套酒店以及入场停车的各项具体规则要求来命题;2026年新课标II卷A篇华盛顿特区及周边四家知名中餐馆的菜品、订餐方式、营业时间与详细地址信息来命制试题。2026年浙江1月阅读理解A篇伯灵顿市公共艺术项目联合文化日征集本地艺术家作品,涵盖视觉与文学类型,明确报酬、时间节点及提交材料要求,作品将在指定时段展示来出题。对于2027年高考题,很可能会与活动安排、科技成果、志愿招募、课程大纲、场馆指南、政府项目通知等主题相关,需重点关注这些方面信息知识点。

Wildlife Wonders
The land is cooling down after the warmer months, and we are beginning to experience cool south-westerly changes amongst the still-warm days. Recent rainy days have provided much-needed moisture to the ground, and the vegetation is responding eagerly.
With the winter holidays just around the corner, we would love to welcome you back to the reserve to experience this seasonal transformation for yourself. It is a wonderful time for families to reconnect with the nature, though we do recommend booking your tour in advance to ensure your preferred time is secured during this busy period.
Golden skies of gwangal moronn
Pink heath flowers, red sunrises, and golden evenings are all features of the gwangal moronn season (late March to mid June). This shift brings photo-perfection to our horizons, with stunning sunrises and sunsets. It is the ideal time of year for our Dusk Discovery Tours, when the night sky is also exceptionally bright with stars.
In the shop: gifts with conscience
Our gift and book shop is more than just a place for mementos; it is an extension of our mission. This month, we are featuring the stunning Australian-made wood earrings. Inspired by the Australian bush, these bright and cheerful earrings will add a stunning pop to any autumn outfit.

Passage 1
(2025-2026学年江西省宜春市丰城中学高三年级下学期英语一模模拟英语试题)
Nowadays, more and more emphasis is being placed on a building’s “green” certification. On Earth Day, look through four noteworthy green buildings from around the world.
One Central Park (Sydney, Australia)
A park at the foot of the building literally continues up the structure, as vegetation of 250 species of Australian plants and flowers cover One Central Park. An architectural website says it has 25% less energy consumption compared with a conventional building of its size.
Shanghai Tower (Shanghai, China)
Shanghai Tower has a transparent second skin wrapped around the building which creates a zone of captured air that serves as natural ventilation (通风), reducing energy costs. Besides, 270 wind devices incorporated into the right side power its outside lights.
Marco Polo Tower (Hamburg, Germany)
Each floor of Marco Polo Tower is turned a few degrees away from the one below, around an axis (轴线). This allows for recessed (嵌入式) buildings that protect residents from direct sun. This tower also includes many other green features. There is a heat exchanger on the roof that turns warm air into a cooling system. And the natural ventilation can make residents sleep soundly without being disrupted by outside noise.
Torre Reforma (Mexico City, Mexico)
Torre Reforma rises to 807 feet and stands tall on energy-saving measures, too. The tower’s slimness maximizes the amount of natural light let in, which in turn cuts down on the need for electric lights. And when the weather permits, controls can automatically open windows to let air in.
21.What do we know about One Central Park?
A.It makes full use of solar energy.
B.It uses a great cooling system.
C.It has many plants and flowers.
D.It has self-control windows.
22.What do the Shanghai Tower and Marco Polo Tower have in common?
A.They are naturally ventilated.
B.They are both transparent.
C.They generate electricity by wind.
D.They harvest energy from sunshine.
23.Where can the text be found?
A.In science fiction. B.In an architectural magazine.
C.In an autobiography. D.In a weather report.
【答案】21.C 22.A 23.B
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了来自世界各地的四座引人注目的绿色建筑。
【详解】21.细节理解题。根据第二段“A park at the foot of the building literally continues up the structure, as vegetation of 250 species of Australian plants and flowers cover One Central Park.(这座建筑的脚下实际上是一个公园,它向上延伸到建筑结构上,250种澳大利亚植物和花卉的植被覆盖了中央公园一号)”可知,One Central Park有许多植物和花卉。故选C项。
22.细节理解题。根据第三段“Shanghai Tower has a transparent second skin wrapped around the building which creates a zone of captured air that serves as natural ventilation (通风), reducing energy costs.(上海中心大厦有一个透明的第二层表皮包裹在建筑周围,形成一个被捕获的空气区域,作为自然通风,降低能源成本)”以及第四段“And the natural ventilation can make residents sleep soundly without being disrupted by outside noise.(并且自然通风可以让居民睡得很香,不会受到外界噪音的干扰)”可知,上海中心大厦和马可波罗塔的共同点是它们都有自然通风系统。故选A项。
23.推理判断题。根据第一段“Nowadays, more and more emphasis is being placed on a building’s “green” certification. On Earth Day, look through four noteworthy green buildings from around the world.(如今,人们越来越重视建筑的“绿色”认证。在地球日,我们将参观来自世界各地的四座引人注目的绿色建筑)”可知,本文主要介绍了来自世界各地的四座引人注目的绿色建筑,推测文章可能出自一本建筑杂志上。故选B项。

Passage 5
(2026届陕西西安市碑林区西北工业大学附属中学第十四次适应性训练高三英语试卷)
With the development of technology, life is made much easier when you travel around. Here are some top travel apps for you to use.
Yelp
When you are in a new location and need a quick recommendation, Yelp comes in handy. It gives insights into the quality of businesses and services, from restaurants to the way in which they work, based on user reviews. The users can certainly make unfair judgements for personal reasons at times, but Yelp often at least lets you get a sense of what to expect.
Zomato
In China, there is a good chance you have never heard of Zomato. In some countries, however, it is more popular than Yelp, and it covers the same ground. Zomato is a remarkable crowd-sourced review website, mostly for restaurants. In some regions, you can order delivery food through Zomato, too.
Happy Cow
If you are a person who doesn’t eat meat or fish, or even doesn’t use animal products such as meat, milk or eggs or if you are only looking for a healthy meal option after eating not-so-healthy meals for several days in a row, you are sure to appreciate Happy Cow. The app and web- site help you find restaurants, cafes, health food stores, and other places to get a meat-free meal.

Passage 3
(2026·河南省南阳市部分学校·5月高三适应性考试)
Technological Innovations That Aim To Make Roads SaferSmarter Traffic Signages
Traffic signs may not be visible for everyone to see, with some drivers even forgetting what they mean. A proposal for “smart signs” has floated recently with the goal of signaling a car’s receiver of what the road sign means. The driver can receive the information through a display on their car’s dashboard or through voice alert. This solution will not be affected by the weather or lighting which can increase one’s safety while driving
.Immediate Car Crash Detection
Although there are car accidents that result in minor injuries, the result of a crash can often be life-altering. This is where having vehicle communication technology can help. This system will be able to send out a notification of the crash to the nearest emergency response unit to get immediate help. It can also inform other drivers that a car crash has occurred so they can take appropriate measures to avoid adding to the collision (碰撞)
.Safety Technology for Intersections
Crossing an intersection can be tricky as you will never know if other vehicles will be approaching until it is too late. This particular tech can combine sensors as well as cameras to determine if there is incoming traffic or a pedestrian even. It is also possible to use this technology to adjust the light timers to help with the incoming flow of traffic in the intersection.
Traffic Violation Detection and Notification
Another technology innovation that may help roads become safer is the automatic transmission of information when a violation has occurred. The combination of camera monitoring as well as sensors can help determine if a driver disobeyed any traffic rules and will notify them immediately. The automatic notification will be recorded into the vehicle’s black box, which prevents the driver from making excuses.
21.What is an advantage of the Smarter Traffic Signages system?
A.It makes driving fully automatic. B.It is easier to operate on the road.
C.It can replace traffic voice alerts. D.It works in any weather condition.
22.What can Immediate Car Crash Detection do?
A.Prevent car accidents from happening. B.Inform emergency services about a crash.
C.Reduce the damage caused by collisions. D.Remind drivers to observe traffic rules.
