If you are looking for meaningful travel experiences in 2026, these four cultural hotspots offer a perfect mix of architecture, art, and history.
The Vertical Forest Gallery — Singapore
This eight-story gallery looks like a living tower. The building uses recycled wood and self-cleaning glass, while rainwater is collected to water the plants. Inside, the main exhibit, “Rainforest Dreams,” features large-scale light projections of endangered animals combined with real preserved leaves and soil samples. Visitors can also step into a sound room to enjoy bird calls from Borneo.
Opening Hours: 10:00 — 19:00.
Entry: $15.
The Silk Road Echo — Samarkand, Uzbekistan
Housed in a beautifully restored 15th-century caravanserai, this museum brings ancient trade routes to life. The highlight is a 3D interactive map showing how silk, spices, and paper travelled from China to Rome. Visitors can touch digital replicas of Sogdian coins, ceramic bowls, and a fragment of a 1,000-year-old camel bell.
Opening Hours: 9:00 — 18:00 (closed Mondays).
Entry: $8.
The Ice Typography Museum — Helsinki, Finland
Open only from December to March, this seasonal museum is rebuilt each winter using ice blocks harvested from local lakes and supported by steel frames. The exhibition, “Words in Ice”, features poems and climate messages carved into slowly melting walls — meaning the art changes daily. Visitors are given heat-sensitive gloves to trace disappearing letters.
Opening Hours: 12:00 — 20:00 (closed Christmas Eve).
Entry: $2.
The Afro-Futurist Centre — Lagos, Nigeria
Designed to look like a spaceship landing in a garden, this centre uses woven bamboo panels and recycled metal sheets. Inside, visitors can see robotic masks that move to traditional drumbeats, AI-generated patterns based on Yoruba textiles, and a 15-minute sci-fi film called “Lagos 2100”. A small workshop area invites guests to design their own futuristic African patterns.
Opening Hours: 11:00 — 18:00 (closed Sundays).
Entry: $4.

Being immersed in native plants may not seem like a formula (方法) for social media success. But meet Kyle Lybarger, an Alabama forester often wearing camo (迷彩服). He has gained unexpected fame by talking about native plants and why biodiversity matters.
On TikTok alone, he has nearly half a million followers. A professor calls his story “an incredible adventure in American conservation.” When pressed about his secret sauce, Lybarger credits it to a positive energy inherited from his late dad and says, “You have to really not care about what people think of you to do that.”
His mission began with a terrible mistake. A decade ago, as a deer hunter, he sprayed herbicide (除草剂) on a rocky area to plant food for deer. The seeds failed. But the next summer, the unsprayed edges burst into color with native plants like blazing star and butterfly weed. A local plant expert pointed out rare species. “That is when the light bulb went off in my head that managing for biodiversity is probably the best option,” Lybarger says.
Today, he works to save remaining grasslands. Over 90% of Alabama land is privately owned, so Lybarger knocks on doors to speak with landowners who are unknowing hosts to rare plants. He offers to care for those populations, thanks to his income from social media. “Private landowners will be the cornerstone of conservation for a lot of plants,” he says.
In one case, he helped protect an endangered plant called leafy prairie clover. He teamed with an artist to sell T-shirts featuring the plant, raising over $100,000. He used most of the money to buy the 24 acres of habitat, which he plans to turn into a protected area.
There has been a recent shift around the state with more people investing in grasslands research and giving the topic the attention it deserves. “One person, one yard, one-tenth of an acre can make a bigger difference than you think,” Lybarger says.
4. How did Lybarger gain fame online?
A. By promoting plant-growing techniques.
B. By learning from successful influencers.
C. By educating people about native species.
D. By dressing himself in an unusual uniform.
5. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The failure of growing enough food for deer.
B. The action of spraying herbicide on rocky areas.
C. The discovery of rare plants on unsprayed edges.
D. The intention of planting all kinds of rare species.
6. What does Lybarger think is crucial to his mission?
A. Getting landowners involved. B. Seeking government funding.
C. Cooperating with artists. D. Buying more habitats.
7. What message does Lybarger intend to convey in the last paragraph?
A. Every little bit helps. B. Still waters run deep.
C. Practice makes perfect. D. Well begun is half done.
C
In just a few years, banning mobile phones in schools has moved from a handful of national policies to a widespread global policy trend. Governments increasingly see smartphones as something that takes students’ attention away from lessons and may harm their mental and social health.
The push for school phone bans is closely linked to growing concern about social media and online harms. Evidence highlighted in recent global education monitoring, including the 2023 Gender Report, suggests that social media environments can expose young people, particularly girls, to risks such as harassment, unrealistic social pressures and harmful content. That report found that girls are twice as likely as boys to suffer from eating disorders worsened by social media usage. Facebook’s own research revealed that 32% of teenage girls felt worse about their bodies after using Instagram.
Furthermore, emotional well-being is crucial for academic success. The impact of social media on the latter is particularly pronounced among girls. This can show up as a greater decline in attention during study time, increased academic anxiety linked to online social comparison, and a higher likelihood of disengaging from schoolwork.
However, as research by the Global Education Monitoring Report team highlighted in 2023 and 2025, while limiting phone use may help reduce classroom distraction, it does not remove the need for students to learn how to navigate digital environments.
Schools remain one of the few places where young people can develop digital literacy and critical thinking skills including how to assess online information, manage screen time and understand the risks of digital platforms. The policy challenge therefore goes beyond banning devices. It is about ensuring that education systems both protect learning time and prepare students for a digital world. And the real debate is no longer just about whether phones belong in schools. It is about using technology in an appropriate way, ensuring it is on the terms of educators and students, and no one else.
8. Why are mobile phones banned in schools?
A. They affect policy making. B. They are trending globally.
C. They have negative effects. D. They raise management costs.
9. What are paragraphs 2 and 3 intended to do?
A. Draw a conclusion. B. Clarify a definition.
C. Provide an example. D. Offer an explanation.
10. What does the underlined word “distraction” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Lack of attention. B. Absence of imagination.
C. Criticism from teachers. D. Pressure from classmates.
11. What’s the author’s attitude towards the ban?
A. Favorable. B. Unclear. C. Unconcerned. D. Critical.
D
In the same way that humans try to eat a balanced diet, it seems that bees need to do the same. A new study has found that wild bees visit different flowers on purpose to get a balanced mix of protein, fats and carbohydrates (carbs).
The team led by Northwestern University tracked which flowers each bee species visited for pollen (花粉). They collected pollen samples from these plant species to understand their nutrient content. At the lab, the team measured each pollen’s content and calculated its concentration of protein, fat and carbs.
Clear patterns emerged when the researchers compared each bee species’ diet with their physical features. Researchers were surprised by the protein differences among the studied flowers. Some flowers consist of only 17% protein while others contain as much as 86%.
The pollen’s nutrient content also changed throughout the season. The study shared that spring flowers have more protein-rich pollen, while late-summer flowers are richer in fat and carbs.
Justin Bain, the lead author on the study, said: “All pollen contains protein, fats and carbs but each has a different mixture of micronutrients. Some are very high in protein like a steak. Others are more like a salad.”
The team also found that coexisting bee species occupied two distinct nutrient niches (生态位). Larger-bodied bees with longer tongues preferred pollen high in protein but lower in sugars and fats, while bees with shorter tongues looked out for pollen richer in carbs and fats.
Justin Bain said the study showed the “huge amount” of variation in macronutrients in natural ecosystems and how bees’ nutrient needs are not “one-size-fits-all”. He believes the findings from the research can provide “some of the best information” on the availability of nutritional resources found in wildflowers and how pollinators use these resources.
“We can incorporate this work into our thinking about garden design, so we can select the right flowers that best support the nutritional needs of wild pollinators.”
12. Which aspect of bees does the study focus on?
A. Their habitats. B. Their varieties.
C. Their pollen intake. D. Their physical features.
13. What do we know about the studied flowers?
A. Their nutrient contents vary substantially.
B. They contain the same amount of protein.
C. They are good ingredients for steak and salad.
D. Late-summer flowers have more nutritional value.
14. What influences which flowers bees can access?
A. Bees’ flying speed. B. Bees’ living habit.
C. Bees’ tongue length. D. Bees’ food preference.
15. What should garden designers focus on?
A. Pollinators’ safety. B. Nutritional diversity.
C. One-size-fits-all menu. D. Valuable wildflowers.
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。
When we think of “letting go”, certain associations may come up… surrender (放弃), forgiveness, acceptance, non-attachment. ____16____ And they are — at first. Luckily, with long-term consistent practice, we can gradually allow our minds to relax.
Surrender to your emotional experience. ____17____ You can face your thoughts and feelings or control them. Most believe actively working through negative thoughts and emotions is a necessary part of this process. But it can be unpleasant and create additional stress. Instead, surrender to the fact that your thoughts and emotions may come in waves. The goal isn’t to eliminate the waves but to learn to float upon them, so they don’t pull you in.
____18____ When ready, take a step back and critically examine the event. As you work through your emotions, ask yourself what is happening to you physically. Working with a trained professional who can guide you and help you practice mindfulness might also be helpful. It helps to engage in restorative activities, such as exercise, gardening and cooking, while intentionally releasing judgment about how they feel about the situation.
Learn from the circumstances and your reactions. To let go of the past, most people gather additional information to learn about what happened. And that is healthy because it can help you create language and frameworks around what occurred while serving as a reminder that you are not alone. ____19____ Exploring how your identity influenced your perspective on this event and how the event might affect you going forward can help you clarify what you want for the future.
In conclusion, although it will differ for everyone, the letting-go process tends to happen in waves. ____20____ But, by consciously experiencing, observing, and learning, you can shift your perspective, practice self-compassion, and design a fascinating new future sooner.
A. Time helps, of course.
B. Observe the event and its impact.
C. All of these terms sound challenging.
D. Identify your physical and emotional habits.
E. Your suffering arises from carrying the burden.
F. I also suggest spending time learning about yourself.
G. You are faced with a choice when letting go of the past.

So this year, I joined a community-run club for bikers and bought a wooden bike. The director suggested I ____23____ all the way down to the south. At first, I thought that was ridiculous, but then ____24____ it: I wanted to do something new.
I hadn’t planned anything, hoping to ____25____ things as I went. During the months I was on the road, plenty of people offered me their ____26____. A DJ discovered my videos on TikTok and sent me money for hotel ____27____. I met builders in a Scottish village, who offered me hot food, and I helped them ____28____. I spent the next day bricklaying. Most of those wonderful people were often elderly and isolated, but ____29____ to help. This ____30____ me to use my journey to fundraise for Age UK, a charity for vulnerable people.
The wooden bicycle caused a stir (轰动) wherever I went. Locals would go ____31____ over it. I’d tell them my story, they’d gather their friends and family to take pictures, and ____32____ to my fundraiser.
Finally, I reached Dover. My journey came to an end. I had previously felt the ____33____ of community in my life, but doing this ____34____ made the world feel bigger. The community helped me finish my journey. Not money or my resilience (韧性) — just the ____35____ of strangers.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
For as long as I could remember, I had been terrified of water. Not just a little nervous — truly, deeply terrified. The fear started when I was five years old. At a family pool party, my cousin pushed me into the deep end as a joke. I sank like a stone, swallowing water, unable to breathe, convinced I was going to die. My uncle jumped in and pulled me out, but the damage was done. From that day on, I stayed far away from any body of water larger than a bathtub.
So when my high school announced a mandatory swimming class for all students, my heart dropped into my stomach. I begged my parents to write me a note. I pretended to be sick on the first day. I tried everything. But nothing worked. My parents, to my horror, thought this was exactly what I needed.
“You can’t avoid water forever, honey,” my mom said gently but firmly. “This is your chance to face your fear.”
The first day of swimming class, I stood at the edge of the pool, trembling. The water looked so dark, so deep, so dangerous. All around me, my classmates were jumping in, laughing, splashing each other. They made it look so easy. But to me, that pool might as well have been an ocean.
My coach, a tall woman with kind eyes named Thompson, walked over to me. “First time?” she asked. I nodded, unable to speak. “Then let’s start small,” she said. “You don’t have to swim today. You just have to sit on the edge and put your feet in.”
I looked at her. She wasn’t laughing. She wasn’t pushing. She was just waiting.
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 took a deep breath and put my feet in the water.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Three months later, I stood at the starting line of my first swimming race.

Being immersed in native plants may not seem like a formula (方法) for social media success. But meet Kyle Lybarger, an Alabama forester often wearing camo (迷彩服). He has gained unexpected fame by talking about native plants and why biodiversity matters.
On TikTok alone, he has nearly half a million followers. A professor calls his story “an incredible adventure in American conservation.” When pressed about his secret sauce, Lybarger credits it to a positive energy inherited from his late dad and says, “You have to really not care about what people think of you to do that.”
His mission began with a terrible mistake. A decade ago, as a deer hunter, he sprayed herbicide (除草剂) on a rocky area to plant food for deer. The seeds failed. But the next summer, the unsprayed edges burst into color with native plants like blazing star and butterfly weed. A local plant expert pointed out rare species. “That is when the light bulb went off in my head that managing for biodiversity is probably the best option,” Lybarger says.
Today, he works to save remaining grasslands. Over 90% of Alabama land is privately owned, so Lybarger knocks on doors to speak with landowners who are unknowing hosts to rare plants. He offers to care for those populations, thanks to his income from social media. “Private landowners will be the cornerstone of conservation for a lot of plants,” he says.
In one case, he helped protect an endangered plant called leafy prairie clover. He teamed with an artist to sell T-shirts featuring the plant, raising over $100,000. He used most of the money to buy the 24 acres of habitat, which he plans to turn into a protected area.
There has been a recent shift around the state with more people investing in grasslands research and giving the topic the attention it deserves. “One person, one yard, one-tenth of an acre can make a bigger difference than you think,” Lybarger says.
4. How did Lybarger gain fame online?
A. By promoting plant-growing techniques.
B. By learning from successful influencers.
C. By educating people about native species.
D. By dressing himself in an unusual uniform.
5. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. The failure of growing enough food for deer.
B. The action of spraying herbicide on rocky areas.
C. The discovery of rare plants on unsprayed edges.
D. The intention of planting all kinds of rare species.
6. What does Lybarger think is crucial to his mission?
A. Getting landowners involved. B. Seeking government funding.
C. Cooperating with artists. D. Buying more habitats.
7. What message does Lybarger intend to convey in the last paragraph?
A. Every little bit helps. B. Still waters run deep.
C. Practice makes perfect. D. Well begun is half done.
【答案】4. C 5. C 6. A 7. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了林业工作者Kyle Lybarger通过短视频科普本土植物、宣传生物多样性保护,从自身经历转变观念,上门劝说土地所有者参与植被保护,并通过筹款收购濒危植物栖息地,呼吁每个人从小处行动助力生态保护的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“He has gained unexpected fame by talking about native plants and why biodiversity matters.(他通过讲解本土植物以及生物多样性的重要性意外走红。)”可知,他依靠向大众科普本土物种在网络收获名气。
【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“But the next summer, the unsprayed edges burst into color with native plants like blazing star and butterfly weed. A local plant expert pointed out rare species.(第二年夏天,未喷洒药剂的边缘地带绽放出大量蛇鞭菊、蝴蝶草等本土植物。当地植物专家从中识别出多个珍稀物种。)”可知,that指代发现未喷洒除草剂区域生长出珍稀本土植物这一经历。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Over 90% of Alabama land is privately owned, so Lybarger knocks on doors to speak with landowners who are unknowing hosts to rare plants.(阿拉巴马州超九成土地为私人所有,因此Lybarger逐一拜访土地所有者,对接那些土地上生长着珍稀植物却不自知的业主。)”及“‘Private landowners will be the cornerstone of conservation for a lot of plants,’ he says.(他表示:‘私人土地所有者将会是大量植物保护工作的基石。’)”可知,Lybarger认为土地所有者参与进来是他保护工作的关键。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘One person, one yard, one-tenth of an acre can make a bigger difference than you think,’ Lybarger says.(他说:‘一个人、一处庭院、十分之一英亩的土地,所能带来的改变远比你想象的要大。’)”可知,Lybarger意在说明点滴行动都能产生作用,与A选项“Every little bit helps(点滴皆有助益,积少成多)”意义相同。
C
In just a few years, banning mobile phones in schools has moved from a handful of national policies to a widespread global policy trend. Governments increasingly see smartphones as something that takes students’ attention away from lessons and may harm their mental and social health.
The push for school phone bans is closely linked to growing concern about social media and online harms. Evidence highlighted in recent global education monitoring, including the 2023 Gender Report, suggests that social media environments can expose young people, particularly girls, to risks such as harassment, unrealistic social pressures and harmful content. That report found that girls are twice as likely as boys to suffer from eating disorders worsened by social media usage. Facebook’s own research revealed that 32% of teenage girls felt worse about their bodies after using Instagram.
Furthermore, emotional well-being is crucial for academic success. The impact of social media on the latter is particularly pronounced among girls. This can show up as a greater decline in attention during study time, increased academic anxiety linked to online social comparison, and a higher likelihood of disengaging from schoolwork.
However, as research by the Global Education Monitoring Report team highlighted in 2023 and 2025, while limiting phone use may help reduce classroom distraction, it does not remove the need for students to learn how to navigate digital environments.
Schools remain one of the few places where young people can develop digital literacy and critical thinking skills including how to assess online information, manage screen time and understand the risks of digital platforms. The policy challenge therefore goes beyond banning devices. It is about ensuring that education systems both protect learning time and prepare students for a digital world. And the real debate is no longer just about whether phones belong in schools. It is about using technology in an appropriate way, ensuring it is on the terms of educators and students, and no one else.
8. Why are mobile phones banned in schools?
A. They affect policy making. B. They are trending globally.
C. They have negative effects. D. They raise management costs.
9. What are paragraphs 2 and 3 intended to do?
A. Draw a conclusion. B. Clarify a definition.
C. Provide an example. D. Offer an explanation.
10. What does the underlined word “distraction” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Lack of attention. B. Absence of imagination.
C. Criticism from teachers. D. Pressure from classmates.
11. What’s the author’s attitude towards the ban?
A. Favorable. B. Unclear. C. Unconcerned. D. Critical.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文阐述了全球多国推行校园手机禁令的原因,重点说明手机及社交媒体对青少年尤其是女生身心健康、学业状态带来的负面影响;随后指出单纯禁手机治标不治本,学校更应培养学生数字素养,核心问题不在于是否禁用手机,而是合理、规范地使用数字技术。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Governments increasingly see smartphones as something that takes students’ attention away from lessons and may harm their mental and social health.(各国政府越来越认为智能手机会分散学生上课注意力,还可能损害他们的心理与社交健康。)”可知,各国推行校园手机禁令是因为手机存在诸多负面影响。
【9题详解】

【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Governments increasingly see smartphones as something that takes students’ attention away from lessons and may harm their mental and social health.(各国政府越来越认为智能手机会分散学生上课注意力,还可能损害他们的心理与社交健康。)”及第四段“However, as research by the Global Education Monitoring Report team highlighted in 2023 and 2025, while limiting phone use may help reduce classroom distraction, it does not remove the need for students to learn how to navigate digital environments.(然而,全球教育监测报告团队在2023年与2025年重点指出:虽然限制手机使用或许有助于减少课堂distraction,但这无法消除学生学习适应、驾驭数字环境的必要性。)”可知,前文提到手机会夺走学生课堂注意力,此句中distraction意为“注意力缺失,分心”,A选项“Lack of attention(注意力缺失)”符合词义。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“However, as research by the Global Education Monitoring Report team highlighted in 2023 and 2025, while limiting phone use may help reduce classroom distraction, it does not remove the need for students to learn how to navigate digital environments.(然而,全球教育监测报告团队在2023年和2025年的研究着重指出:尽管限制手机使用能减少课堂分心,但这并不能免去学生学习适应数字环境的需求。)”以及最后一段“And the real debate is no longer just about whether phones belong in schools. It is about using technology in an appropriate way, ensuring it is on the terms of educators and students, and no one else.(真正的争论不再仅仅是手机是否该出现在校园里。关键在于以恰当的方式运用科技,确保技术使用遵从教师与学生自身的意愿,不受其他外力左右。)”可知,作者表示单纯限制手机只是减少课堂分心,无法培养学生数字能力,真正重点是合理使用科技,而非一刀切禁止手机,可见作者对一刀切的手机禁令持批判态度。

In the same way that humans try to eat a balanced diet, it seems that bees need to do the same. A new study has found that wild bees visit different flowers on purpose to get a balanced mix of protein, fats and carbohydrates (carbs).
The team led by Northwestern University tracked which flowers each bee species visited for pollen (花粉). They collected pollen samples from these plant species to understand their nutrient content. At the lab, the team measured each pollen’s content and calculated its concentration of protein, fat and carbs.
Clear patterns emerged when the researchers compared each bee species’ diet with their physical features. Researchers were surprised by the protein differences among the studied flowers. Some flowers consist of only 17% protein while others contain as much as 86%.
The pollen’s nutrient content also changed throughout the season. The study shared that spring flowers have more protein-rich pollen, while late-summer flowers are richer in fat and carbs.
Justin Bain, the lead author on the study, said: “All pollen contains protein, fats and carbs but each has a different mixture of micronutrients. Some are very high in protein like a steak. Others are more like a salad.”
The team also found that coexisting bee species occupied two distinct nutrient niches (生态位). Larger-bodied bees with longer tongues preferred pollen high in protein but lower in sugars and fats, while bees with shorter tongues looked out for pollen richer in carbs and fats.
Justin Bain said the study showed the “huge amount” of variation in macronutrients in natural ecosystems and how bees’ nutrient needs are not “one-size-fits-all”. He believes the findings from the research can provide “some of the best information” on the availability of nutritional resources found in wildflowers and how pollinators use these resources.
“We can incorporate this work into our thinking about garden design, so we can select the right flowers that best support the nutritional needs of wild pollinators.”
12. Which aspect of bees does the study focus on?
A. Their habitats. B. Their varieties.
C. Their pollen intake. D. Their physical features.
13. What do we know about the studied flowers?
A. Their nutrient contents vary substantially.
B. They contain the same amount of protein.
C. They are good ingredients for steak and salad.
D. Late-summer flowers have more nutritional value.
14. What influences which flowers bees can access?
A. Bees’ flying speed. B. Bees’ living habit.
C. Bees’ tongue length. D. Bees’ food preference.
15. What should garden designers focus on?
A. Pollinators’ safety. B. Nutritional diversity.
C. One-size-fits-all menu. D. Valuable wildflowers.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】

Some flowers consist of only 17% protein while others contain as much as 86%.(研究人员对受试花朵间的蛋白质含量差异感到震惊,部分花朵花粉蛋白质含量仅17%,最高可达86%。)”以及第四段“The pollen’s nutrient content also changed throughout the season.(花粉营养成分还会随季节发生变化。)”可知,受试花卉的营养成分差异极大。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段“Larger-bodied bees with longer tongues preferred pollen high in protein but lower in sugars and fats, while bees with shorter tongues looked out for pollen richer in carbs and fats.(体型更大、口器更长的蜜蜂偏爱高蛋白、低糖脂的花粉,而口器较短的蜜蜂会寻找碳水和脂肪含量更高的花粉。)”可知,蜜蜂的口器长度会影响它们可采食的花朵种类。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“‘We can incorporate this work into our thinking about garden design, so we can select the right flowers that best support the nutritional needs of wild pollinators.’(‘我们可以将这项研究融入园林设计思路中,挑选合适花卉,最大限度满足野生传粉昆虫的各类营养需求。’)”可知,园林设计者需要注重花卉营养的多样性,匹配传粉昆虫的不同营养需求。
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。
When we think of “letting go”, certain associations may come up… surrender (放弃), forgiveness, acceptance, non-attachment. ____16____ And they are — at first. Luckily, with long-term consistent practice, we can gradually allow our minds to relax.
Surrender to your emotional experience. ____17____ You can face your thoughts and feelings or control them. Most believe actively working through negative thoughts and emotions is a necessary part of this process. But it can be unpleasant and create additional stress. Instead, surrender to the fact that your thoughts and emotions may come in waves. The goal isn’t to eliminate the waves but to learn to float upon them, so they don’t pull you in.
____18____ When ready, take a step back and critically examine the event. As you work through your emotions, ask yourself what is happening to you physically. Working with a trained professional who can guide you and help you practice mindfulness might also be helpful. It helps to engage in restorative activities, such as exercise, gardening and cooking, while intentionally releasing judgment about how they feel about the situation.
Learn from the circumstances and your reactions. To let go of the past, most people gather additional information to learn about what happened. And that is healthy because it can help you create language and frameworks around what occurred while serving as a reminder that you are not alone. ____19____ Exploring how your identity influenced your perspective on this event and how the event might affect you going forward can help you clarify what you want for the future.
In conclusion, although it will differ for everyone, the letting-go process tends to happen in waves. ____20____ But, by consciously experiencing, observing, and learning, you can shift your perspective, practice self-compassion, and design a fascinating new future sooner.
A. Time helps, of course.
B. Observe the event and its impact.
C. All of these terms sound challenging.
D. Identify your physical and emotional habits.
E. Your suffering arises from carrying the burden.
F. I also suggest spending time learning about yourself.
G. You are faced with a choice when letting go of the past.
【答案】16. C 17. G 18. B 19. F 20. A

【36题详解】
考查名词。句意:浙江省湖州市是“绿水青山就是金山银山”理念首次落地生根的地方。mountain为可数名词,前面无冠词限定,与前面waters并列,需用复数形式mountains,固定搭配clear waters and green mountains意为“绿水青山”。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意:在20世纪80年代,湖州凭借优质石灰岩储量蓬勃发展。“in the + 年份复数”为固定结构,表示“在某世纪某年代”。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:但是采矿是以生态为代价的。at the cost of是固定短语,意为“以……为代价”。
【39题详解】
考查时态。句意:当政府下定决心关停矿山时,几乎没人预料到这一举措会为全新发展道路铺平道路。根据“When the authorities resolved”可知,此句描述的是过去的事实,用一般过去时,anticipate的过去式为anticipated。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意:今年3月,我国首部专门鼓励青年投身乡村发展的地方性法规在湖州颁布实施。此处修饰过去分词designed,需用副词作状语,specific的副词形式为specifically,意为“专门地,具体地”。

【42题详解】
考查时态。句意:自2025年初以来,湖州已在全域乡村落地超2000个青年主导创新项目。根据时间状语“Since the start of 2025”可知,动作从过去持续到现在,谓语动词应用现在完成时,基本结构为have/has done;主语Huzhou为单数,助动词用has。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这些举措催生了全新商业模式与生活方式,全部由青年人的创造力与抱负驱动。此处为独立主格结构,逻辑主语all与drive之间是被动关系,表示“被驱动”,应用过去分词driven。
【44题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:从数字游民社群到各类助力增收的创新项目,越来越多湖州青年将梦想变为现实。此处为定语从句,先行词是innovative projects,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,应用关系代词that或which。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:人才涌入重塑了城乡一体化发展格局,为均衡发展提供了充满活力的全新图景。此句已有谓语动词is reshaping,空处应填非谓语结构,主语This influx of talent与offer之间是主动关系,应用现在分词offering作伴随状语。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
For as long as I could remember, I had been terrified of water. Not just a little nervous — truly, deeply terrified. The fear started when I was five years old. At a family pool party, my cousin pushed me into the deep end as a joke. I sank like a stone, swallowing water, unable to breathe, convinced I was going to die. My uncle jumped in and pulled me out, but the damage was done. From that day on, I stayed far away from any body of water larger than a bathtub.
So when my high school announced a mandatory swimming class for all students, my heart dropped into my stomach. I begged my parents to write me a note. I pretended to be sick on the first day. I tried everything. But nothing worked. My parents, to my horror, thought this was exactly what I needed.
“You can’t avoid water forever, honey,” my mom said gently but firmly. “This is your chance to face your fear.”
The first day of swimming class, I stood at the edge of the pool, trembling. The water looked so dark, so deep, so dangerous. All around me, my classmates were jumping in, laughing, splashing each other. They made it look so easy. But to me, that pool might as well have been an ocean.
My coach, a tall woman with kind eyes named Thompson, walked over to me. “First time?” she asked. I nodded, unable to speak. “Then let’s start small,” she said. “You don’t have to swim today. You just have to sit on the edge and put your feet in.”
I looked at her. She wasn’t laughing. She wasn’t pushing. She was just waiting.

I took a deep breath and put my feet in the water.

Three months later, I stood at the starting line of my first swimming race.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I took a deep breath and put my feet in the water. My heart was racing, but Coach Thompson smiled and said, “Good job.” Day by day, I moved from the edge to the shallow end. I learned to blow bubbles, then to float on my back. Each small step was a battle against my fear, but I refused to give up. The old terror still visited me sometimes, but it grew smaller every time I faced it. After weeks of hard work, I could finally swim across the pool without stopping.
Three months later, I stood at the starting line of my first swimming race. My legs were shaking, but I wasn’t running away this time. The whistle blew, and I dove in. I focused on my strokes and my breathing, pushing the old panic down. When I touched the wall, I looked up — third place! My parents were cheering in the stands. Coach Thompson hugged me and said, “You beat your fear.” I looked back at the pool and smiled. That medal wasn’t just bronze. It was proof that I had changed.
