For instance, a ChatGPT query (查询) consumes about 10 times more energy than a standard online search, which raises well-founded environmental concerns among researchers and educators. Such hidden energy costs also matter when students use AI to take notes, since note-taking is a basic learning skill for all students. In academic circles, two distinct viewpoints on note-taking have gradually taken shape: one supports machine-driven summaries powered by AI tools, while the other sticks to traditional handwritten approaches. The table below compares the two note-taking methods in several key aspects. Aspect AI-Powered Note-Taking Traditional Note-Taking Method Being fully automatic Relying totally on handwriting Learning Efficiency Being moderate (中等的); suiting quick review Being high； enhancing long-term memory Advantages Saving time; producing well-organized notes; storing notes permanently Developing critical thinking; enabling personalized learning; requiring little energy Disadvantages Consuming a great deal of energy; leading to shallow learning Taking up plenty of time; demanding constant self-discipline As can be seen from the table, while AI note-taking is convenient and efficient, it comes with hidden environmental costs and potential weaknesses in learning quality. Advocates of traditional note-taking methods argue that hands-on summarizing and asking questions offer an energy-efficient, low-carbon approach that forms stronger long-term memories. As climate concerns rise, the choice between rapid AI-generated summaries and carefully handwritten notes helps shape what it means to be an eco-aware student. 1. How many online queries may consume as much energy as 2 million ChatGPT queries? A. 2 million. B. 2 billion. C. 20 million. D. 20 billion. 2. What is a key limitation of the AI-powered note-taking method in the text? A. Disorganized notes. B. Time consumption and self-discipline demand. C. Low efficiency. D. High energy cost and limited understanding. 3. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To reflect on hidden digital costs. B. To warn against smart device risks. C. To promote the latest AI note-taking tools. D. To introduce two note-taking methods. B My first college class was philosophy, and it completely changed the course of my life. Our first assignment was to write an original 1000-word analysis of Albert Camus’ essay The Myth of Sisyphus within a week. The task filled me with deep anxiety. However, through all the confusion in philosophy class, I found answers to my inner questions about life. I entered college aiming for an engineering degree, drawn to mathematics for its clear right and wrong answers. Facing my first philosophy task, I was confused. What was the correct way to analyze Camus’ essay? The professor offered no guidelines and simply said, “I want to see what you come up with.” I was used to examples and explanations of solutions, but this assignment offered no references. Burdened with worry, I read Camus’ essay several times and took careful notes. I thought of a million ways to interpret the essay, but which one was my professor looking for? I attempted various strategies — brainstorming, idea mapping, outlining. Eventually, my ideas became well-organized. I submitted my own interpretation of The Myth of Sisyphus. A week or two later, the professor returned our papers. Surprisingly, I received an A. The professor spoke highly of my original reading and logical thinking. As I went through his written feedback, a wave of relief and newfound confidence washed over me. What I learned through this process extended well beyond how to write a college paper. I learned to be open to new challenges. This class and assignment gave me the faith, critical thinking skills and courage to explore a new career path. I left engineering, studied law and became a lawyer. More importantly, rather than viewing college as a direct stepping stone to a job, I came to see it as a place to first learn, then pursue a career. 4. Why did the author feel confused about his first philosophy task? A. He had no passion for philosophy. B. No specific requirements were set. C. He failed to grasp the essay’s meaning. D. The teacher gave no relevant guidance. 5. How did the author complete his paper? A. By drawing inspiration from other essays. B. By abandoning ideas and changing topics. C. By adopting various thinking approaches. D. By turning to the professor for assistance. 6. What can be inferred about the author? A. He had intended to be a lawyer. B. He regretted quitting engineering. C. He came to value reasoning skills. D. He shone in courses with clear-cut answers. 7. What does the author’s experience show? A. Rome was not built in a day. B. A small key opens big doors. C. No sweet without sweat. D. Think twice before you act. C History is filled with stories of great powers falling. How could the powerful Roman Empire, which ruled most of the lands surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, eventually fall apart? A concept from complexity science offers an explanation: the sources of a nation’s or an organization’s strength — its size, its interconnectedness — can quietly become the roots of its downfall. This idea is illustrated by a concept called the “robust-yet-fragile” nature of complex systems. Think of an airline network. Its strength lies in its many interconnected flights, allowing it to serve millions of passengers every day. But this same interconnectedness means that a single flight delay in a major airport, perhaps caused by bad weather, can cause major chaos across the entire system, leaving passengers stuck nationwide. The feature that makes the system powerful also makes it dangerously unstable. This principle applies directly to the modern global economy. For decades, big companies have built long, complex global supply chains to reduce costs and increase efficiency. This was widely seen as a sign of strength and progress. However, recent events like the pandemic (流行病) have exposed a hidden weakness. A crisis in even a remote location, such as a factory shutdown in a distant city, can give rise to supply shortages that affect businesses and consumers worldwide. The system’s greatest strength (efficiency through complex networks) is actually its hidden risk. What does this mean for leaders today? The lesson is clear: the most dangerous risks are hardly the obvious ones. These underlying risks are the very dark side of our strengths. For example, a culture of nonstop innovation, for instance, can eventually lead to employee burnout. Similarly, a system focused only on short-term profits can contribute to long-term instability. True wisdom, therefore, lies not just in building strengths, but in actively identifying and guarding against the built-in weaknesses that come with them. Strength, it turns out, is never free. 8. What can we know about “robust-yet-fragile” systems from the text? A. More connections make systems safer. B. Complex networks slow down work efficiency. C. Their advantages are likely to cause hidden risks. D. System breakdowns typically start at major airports. 9. Why does the author mention “the pandemic” in Paragraph 3? A. To show global effects of local crises. B. To be against global trade expansion. C. To present a brand-new kind of risk. D. To reveal businesses’ ability to recover quickly. 10. What does the author see as a common mistake of leaders? A. Pushing innovation without managing burnout. B. Focusing on obvious risks but ignoring hidden ones. C. Prioritizing short-term profits over long-term stability. D. Believing complex systems have few built-in weaknesses. 11. What does the author mainly intend to tell us? A. Efficiency must not endanger stability. B. Ancient powers still teach modern leaders. C. Systemic risks tend to be completely avoidable. D. Strength and weakness can grow from the same origin. D The giant Amazonian water lily (睡莲)has long fascinated scientists, architects, and artists for its beauty and huge size. Yet how the lily’s leaves, which can grow as much as 10 feet across, are strong enough to support the weight of a small child has remained a mystery — until now. The source of their brawn is seen only from below. Dr Chris Thorogood headed the landmark research on giant Amazonian water lilies published in Science Advances in 2022. His team has worked out the mechanical principles of the lily’s leaves and documented a network of branching, girder-like veins (叶脉)tailored for strength and structural support. From above, a leaf looks like a large green dinner plate with an upturned edge. When a leaf is pulled out of a pond, people are actually amazed by its uniqueness. Its underside is entirely covered with an irregularly repeated network of veins spreading out from the central stem (茎). The main veins grow thinner and branch out toward the leaf edge. They are crossed at regular gaps by other veins that form centered circles, a feature which is unique to this species. The British gardener and architect Joseph Paxton was the first to successfully grow the giant water lily. It inspired his design of the Crystal Palace, a London landmark of cast iron and glass built for the Great Exhibition of 1851 and later destroyed by fire. “Nature is the true engineer,” Paxton said in an 1850 address to the Royal Society of Arts. As the world’s largest and toughest floating plant, the giant Amazonian lily is fueling modern real-world construction. In 2008, for instance, Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut designed a floating city modeled after the giant lily leaf’s distinctive structure. “There is something poetic about the idea of humans one day using solar panels floating calmly on an Amazonian water lily-inspired platform to collect as much sun as possible — just as the plant has done for millions of years,” Finn Box, a fluid (流体)mechanics researcher, says. “So why can’t we learn from natural examples that have evolved a perfect solution?” 12. What does the underlined word “brawn” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Toughness. B. Beauty. C. Size. D. Weight. 13. What aspect of the Amazonian water lily is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2? A. Huge size. B. Structural network. C. Unique shape. D. Amazing beauty. 14. What can we learn about the Crystal Palace? A. It was constructed for water lily research. B. It remains accessible to visitors nowadays. C. Its design was inspired by the giant water lily. D. It copied the water lily’s structure for decoration. 15. What is Finn Box’s attitude to the water lily-inspired solar platforms? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Critical. 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 I was invited to deliver a speech on self-worth in Hong Kong, I decided to extend my trip to Thailand.

The shelter aimed to help poor abandoned animals find new homes with caring families. Caring visitors could take any pet they liked home for free as long as they promised to take good care of them and filled relevant forms. Almost every visitor would choose those lively and healthy ones without hesitation. The girl walked awkwardly, shifting her weight cautiously with every step. No one noticed her strange movements. Shelter worker Ms Hale welcomed her warmly. With a big smile on her face, she introduced the lovely dogs in detail. Most puppies were energetic, running around and wagging their tails to draw Ann’s attention. However, Ann’s eyes were fixed steadily on a weak puppy (小狗) lying alone in the corner. The poor little puppy had a twisted back leg. It could never jump or run like other puppies and always stayed by itself. Soon, the girl pointed to the lonely puppy and asked, “What’s wrong with it?” Ms Hale patiently explained that the little puppy Haven had been knocked down by a speeding car two weeks ago. She was badly injured. After careful treatment from the shelter’s vet (兽医), she recovered, yet she would always walk with difficulty. Besides, abandoned by her owner, the dog was heartbroken and always looked sad. Unexpectedly, Ann stared lovingly at the puppy, pointed to it and said firmly, “It is this puppy that I am eager to have.” Confused, Ms Hale said, “But Haven needs extra care and patience. You’re still a child, so you’d better choose a healthy puppy.” Ann shook her head, but Ms Hale kept trying to persuade her not to take the puppy. Out of curiosity, all the other people in the shelter stared at them. 注意： 1. 要求续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly, Ann bent down, rolled up her trousers and showed her disabled leg. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, Ann took Haven home happily. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年上学期高二期末校内检测 英语 （试卷满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟） 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，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；回答非选择题时，用0.5mm的黑色字迹签字笔将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 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.

A 【解析】 【导语】主要对比人工智能笔记与传统手写笔记的优劣，探讨人工智能记笔记背后隐藏的能耗问题，呼吁树立绿色学习理念。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For instance, a ChatGPT query (查询) consumes about 10 times more energy than a standard online search, which raises well-founded environmental concerns among researchers and educators. (举例来说，一次ChatGPT查询消耗的能源大约是普通网络搜索的十倍，这在研究人员和教育工作者当中引发了有充分依据的环境担忧。)” 可知，200万次ChatGPT 查询的能耗等同于2000万次普通网络搜索的能耗。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格Disadvantages栏中的“Consuming a great deal of energy; leading to shallow learning(消耗大量能源；导致浅层学习)”可知，人工智能记笔记的主要弊端是能耗高、学习深度不足，存在理解受限的问题。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是首段中的“The growing use of advanced generative technologies, such as ChatGPT, has transformed the way we search for information and acquire knowledge in modern society — yet it brings high energy costs that often go unnoticed by ordinary users. (先进生成式技术（例如ChatGPT）的使用日益增多，已经改变现代社会中我们检索信息、获取知识的方式——但它带来了高昂能耗，这点普通用户往往未曾留意。)”以及尾段中的“As climate concerns rise, the choice between rapid AI-generated summaries and carefully handwritten notes helps shape what it means to be an eco-aware student.(随着气候问题受到更多关注，选择人工智能速记还是手写笔记，决定了学生是否具备环保意识)”可知，文章通过对比两种记笔记方式，核心目的是反思人工智能技术背后容易被忽略的数字能耗代价。 B My first college class was philosophy, and it completely changed the course of my life. Our first assignment was to write an original 1000-word analysis of Albert Camus’ essay The Myth of Sisyphus within a week. The task filled me with deep anxiety. However, through all the confusion in philosophy class, I found answers to my inner questions about life. I entered college aiming for an engineering degree, drawn to mathematics for its clear right and wrong answers. Facing my first philosophy task, I was confused. What was the correct way to analyze Camus’ essay? The professor offered no guidelines and simply said, “I want to see what you come up with.” I was used to examples and explanations of solutions, but this assignment offered no references. Burdened with worry, I read Camus’ essay several times and took careful notes. I thought of a million ways to interpret the essay, but which one was my professor looking for? I attempted various strategies — brainstorming, idea mapping, outlining. Eventually, my ideas became well-organized. I submitted my own interpretation of The Myth of Sisyphus. A week or two later, the professor returned our papers. Surprisingly, I received an A. The professor spoke highly of my original reading and logical thinking. As I went through his written feedback, a wave of relief and newfound confidence washed over me. What I learned through this process extended well beyond how to write a college paper. I learned to be open to new challenges. This class and assignment gave me the faith, critical thinking skills and courage to explore a new career path. I left engineering, studied law and became a lawyer. More importantly, rather than viewing college as a direct stepping stone to a job, I came to see it as a place to first learn, then pursue a career. 4. Why did the author feel confused about his first philosophy task? A. He had no passion for philosophy. B. No specific requirements were set. C. He failed to grasp the essay’s meaning. D. The teacher gave no relevant guidance. 5. How did the author complete his paper? A. By drawing inspiration from other essays. B. By abandoning ideas and changing topics. C. By adopting various thinking approaches. D. By turning to the professor for assistance. 6. What can be inferred about the author? A. He had intended to be a lawyer. B. He regretted quitting engineering. C. He came to value reasoning skills. D. He shone in courses with clear-cut answers. 7. What does the author’s experience show? A. Rome was not built in a day. B. A small key opens big doors. C. No sweet without sweat. D. Think twice before you act. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了作者大学第一节哲学课的经历，一次没有标准答案的论文作业改变了作者的人生规划，作者从原本打算攻读工程学转而学习法律，也重新理解了大学的意义。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The professor offered no guidelines and simply said, ‘I want to see what you come up with.’ (教授没有给出任何指导方针，只是简单说道：‘我想看看你能想出什么内容。’)”可知，作者感到困惑是因为老师没有给出相关指导。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“I attempted various strategies — brainstorming, idea mapping, outlining. Eventually, my ideas became well-organized. (我尝试了多种方法——头脑风暴、思路导图、列提纲。最终，我的思路变得条理清晰。)”可知，作者采用了多种思考方式完成论文。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The professor spoke highly of my original reading and logical thinking. (教授高度赞扬了我独到的解读与逻辑思维。)”以及第五段“This class and assignment gave me the faith, critical thinking skills and courage to explore a new career path. (这门课和这次作业给予了我信念、批判性思维能力以及探索全新职业道路的勇气。)”可知，作者开始重视推理思辨能力。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“My first college class was philosophy, and it completely changed the course of my life. (我的第一节大学课程是哲学，它彻底改变了我的人生轨迹。)”以及第五段“This class and assignment gave me the faith, critical thinking skills and courage to explore a new career path. I left engineering, studied law and became a lawyer. ((这门课和这次作业给予了我信念、批判性思维能力以及探索全新职业道路的勇气。我放弃了工程专业，学习法律并成为了一名律师。)”可知，一次小小的课程作业带来了人生重大改变。 C History is filled with stories of great powers falling. How could the powerful Roman Empire, which ruled most of the lands surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, eventually fall apart? A concept from complexity science offers an explanation: the sources of a nation’s or an organization’s strength — its size, its interconnectedness — can quietly become the roots of its downfall. This idea is illustrated by a concept called the “robust-yet-fragile” nature of complex systems. Think of an airline network. Its strength lies in its many interconnected flights, allowing it to serve millions of passengers every day. But this same interconnectedness means that a single flight delay in a major airport, perhaps caused by bad weather, can cause major chaos across the entire system, leaving passengers stuck nationwide. The feature that makes the system powerful also makes it dangerously unstable. This principle applies directly to the modern global economy. For decades, big companies have built long, complex global supply chains to reduce costs and increase efficiency. This was widely seen as a sign of strength and progress. However, recent events like the pandemic (流行病) have exposed a hidden weakness. A crisis in even a remote location, such as a factory shutdown in a distant city, can give rise to supply shortages that affect businesses and consumers worldwide. The system’s greatest strength (efficiency through complex networks) is actually its hidden risk. What does this mean for leaders today? The lesson is clear: the most dangerous risks are hardly the obvious ones. These underlying risks are the very dark side of our strengths. For example, a culture of nonstop innovation, for instance, can eventually lead to employee burnout. Similarly, a system focused only on short-term profits can contribute to long-term instability. True wisdom, therefore, lies not just in building strengths, but in actively identifying and guarding against the built-in weaknesses that come with them. Strength, it turns out, is never free. 8. What can we know about “robust-yet-fragile” systems from the text? A. More connections make systems safer. B. Complex networks slow down work efficiency. C. Their advantages are likely to cause hidden risks. D. System breakdowns typically start at major airports. 9. Why does the author mention “the pandemic” in Paragraph 3? A. To show global effects of local crises. B. To be against global trade expansion. C. To present a brand-new kind of risk. D. To reveal businesses’ ability to recover quickly. 10. What does the author see as a common mistake of leaders? A. Pushing innovation without managing burnout. B. Focusing on obvious risks but ignoring hidden ones. C. Prioritizing short-term profits over long-term stability. D. Believing complex systems have few built-in weaknesses. 11. What does the author mainly intend to tell us? A. Efficiency must not endanger stability. B. Ancient powers still teach modern leaders. C. Systemic risks tend to be completely avoidable. D. Strength and weakness can grow from the same origin. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章论述优势暗藏脆弱性，警示要警惕并防范随强大而来的风险。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This idea is illustrated by a concept called the “robust-yet-fragile” nature of complex systems. Think of an airline network. Its strength lies in its many interconnected flights, allowing it to serve millions of passengers every day. But this same interconnectedness means that a single flight delay in a major airport, perhaps caused by bad weather, can cause major chaos across the entire system, leaving passengers stuck nationwide. The feature that makes the system powerful also makes it dangerously unstable.(这一观点可以用复杂系统“稳健却脆弱”的特性来阐释。以航空网络为例，它的优势在于众多相互连接的航班，这使其每天能为数百万旅客提供服务。但正是这种高度互联性意味着：大型机场中哪怕一个航班因恶劣天气等原因延误，都可能引发整个系统的严重混乱，导致全国旅客滞留。让系统强大的特性，恰恰也使其陷入危险的不稳定状态。)”以及第四段中“These underlying risks are the very dark side of our strengths.(这些潜在风险恰恰是我们优势的阴暗面。)”可知，“稳健却脆弱”系统的优势很可能带来隐性风险。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“However, recent events like the pandemic (流行病) have exposed a hidden weakness. A crisis in even a remote location, such as a factory shutdown in a distant city, can give rise to supply shortages that affect businesses and consumers worldwide.(然而，像疫情这样的近期事件暴露了一种隐性弱点。即便发生在偏远地区的一场危机，比如远方城市的一家工厂停工，也可能引发波及全球企业和消费者的供应短缺。)”可知，作者提及“疫情”是为了展示局部危机的全球性影响。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“What does this mean for leaders today? The lesson is clear: the most dangerous risks are hardly the obvious ones. These underlying risks are the very dark side of our strengths.(这对当今的领导者意味着什么？教训很明确：最危险的风险往往不是那些显而易见的。这些潜在风险恰恰是我们优势的阴暗面。)”可知，作者认为领导者常犯的错误是关注显性风险而忽视隐性风险。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“History is filled with stories of great powers falling. How could the powerful Roman Empire, which ruled most of the lands surrounding the Mediterranean Sea, eventually fall apart? A concept from complexity science offers an explanation: the sources of a nation’s or an organization’s strength — its size, its interconnectedness — can quietly become the roots of its downfall.(历史上大国陨落的事例比比皆是。曾掌控地中海沿岸绝大部分疆域、盛极一时的罗马帝国，最终为何分崩离析？复杂科学中的一个理论给出了解释：一个国家或组织赖以强盛的根基 —— 庞大的体量、紧密互联的体系，会在不知不觉间沦为其覆灭的根源。)”以及全文围绕“robust-yet-fragile”特性的论述可知，作者旨在告诉我们优势与弱点可能源于同一源头。 D The giant Amazonian water lily (睡莲)has long fascinated scientists, architects, and artists for its beauty and huge size. Yet how the lily’s leaves, which can grow as much as 10 feet across, are strong enough to support the weight of a small child has remained a mystery — until now. The source of their brawn is seen only from below. Dr Chris Thorogood headed the landmark research on giant Amazonian water lilies published in Science Advances in 2022. His team has worked out the mechanical principles of the lily’s leaves and documented a network of branching, girder-like veins (叶脉)tailored for strength and structural support. From above, a leaf looks like a large green dinner plate with an upturned edge. When a leaf is pulled out of a pond, people are actually amazed by its uniqueness. Its underside is entirely covered with an irregularly repeated network of veins spreading out from the central stem (茎). The main veins grow thinner and branch out toward the leaf edge. They are crossed at regular gaps by other veins that form centered circles, a feature which is unique to this species. The British gardener and architect Joseph Paxton was the first to successfully grow the giant water lily. It inspired his design of the Crystal Palace, a London landmark of cast iron and glass built for the Great Exhibition of 1851 and later destroyed by fire. “Nature is the true engineer,” Paxton said in an 1850 address to the Royal Society of Arts. As the world’s largest and toughest floating plant, the giant Amazonian lily is fueling modern real-world construction. In 2008, for instance, Belgian architect Vincent Callebaut designed a floating city modeled after the giant lily leaf’s distinctive structure. “There is something poetic about the idea of humans one day using solar panels floating calmly on an Amazonian water lily-inspired platform to collect as much sun as possible — just as the plant has done for millions of years,” Finn Box, a fluid (流体)mechanics researcher, says. “So why can’t we learn from natural examples that have evolved a perfect solution?” 12. What does the underlined word “brawn” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Toughness. B. Beauty. C. Size. D. Weight. 13. What aspect of the Amazonian water lily is mainly discussed in Paragraph 2? A. Huge size. B. Structural network. C. Unique shape. D. Amazing beauty. 14. What can we learn about the Crystal Palace? A. It was constructed for water lily research. B. It remains accessible to visitors nowadays. C. Its design was inspired by the giant water lily. D. It copied the water lily’s structure for decoration. 15. What is Finn Box’s attitude to the water lily-inspired solar platforms? A. Optimistic. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Critical. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍亚马逊王莲叶片承重的力学结构，以及该植物给建筑、新能源设计带来的仿生启发。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中的 “Yet how the lily’s leaves, which can grow as much as 10 feet across, are strong enough to support the weight of a small child has remained a mystery — until now. The source of their brawn is seen only from below.(然而这种睡莲的叶片宽度可长至10英尺，其足以承载一名小孩重量的原理此前一直是谜团 —— 如今终于解开。它们brawn的来源只能从下方观察到)”可知，前文讲叶片坚固能承重，因此brawn指叶片的坚固、强韧。与toughness同义。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“His team has worked out the mechanical principles of the lily’s leaves and documented a network of branching, girder-like veins (叶脉) tailored for strength and structural support...Its underside is entirely covered with an irregularly repeated network of veins spreading out from the central stem (茎). The main veins grow thinner and branch out toward the leaf edge. They are crossed at regular gaps by other veins that form centered circles, a feature which is unique to this species.(他的团队弄清了睡莲叶的力学原理，并记录下一套分叉、梁状的叶脉网络，这套结构专为强度与结构支撑而生……叶片下表面布满无规律重复的叶脉网络，叶脉从中心茎向外延展。主叶脉越靠近叶缘越细并分叉，另有叶脉以固定间距交叉，形成同心圆环，这是该物种独有的特征)”可知，第二段主要讲解王莲叶片的叶脉结构网络。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The British gardener and architect Joseph Paxton was the first to successfully grow the giant water lily. It inspired his design of the Crystal Palace, a London landmark of cast iron and glass built for the Great Exhibition of 1851 and later destroyed by fire.(英国园艺师兼建筑师约瑟夫・帕克斯顿是首位成功培育王莲的人。这种睡莲启发他设计了水晶宫，这座伦敦地标由铸铁与玻璃搭建，为1851年万国工业博览会建造，后毁于火灾)”可知，水晶宫的设计灵感来源于王莲。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的““There is something poetic about the idea of humans one day using solar panels floating calmly on an Amazonian water lily-inspired platform to collect as much sun as possible — just as the plant has done for millions of years,” Finn Box, a fluid (流体) mechanics researcher, says. “So why can’t we learn from natural examples that have evolved a perfect solution?”(流体力学研究员芬恩・博克斯说：“人类未来将太阳能板平稳放置在仿亚马逊王莲平台上、最大限度收集阳光的构想颇具诗意 —— 这种植物数百万年来一直如此。既然大自然演化出完美方案，我们为何不能向自然范例学习？”)”可知，芬恩・博克斯十分看好仿睡莲太阳能平台，态度乐观。 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 I was invited to deliver a speech on self-worth in Hong Kong, I decided to extend my trip to Thailand.

No wonder the famous Chinese artist Feng Zikai once called the Chinese people “experts of eating melon seeds”. 【答案】36. which 37. proving 38. had become 39. the 40. what 41. in 42. is rewarded 43. nicer 44. varieties 45. flavored##flavoured 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍嗑瓜子这一中国春节传统习俗的悠久历史、文化寓意，以及人们喜爱嗑瓜子的科学原理和各地特色瓜子风味。 【36题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：嗑瓜子在中国是一项由来已久的传统，世世代代的中国人都会在节日和家庭聚会时嗑瓜子。此处为非限制性定语从句，先行词为tradition，指事物，关系词在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：史料记载，长沙汉墓中曾出土瓜子，证明这一趣味的习俗已有两千多年历史。此处为非谓语动词作状语，prove与前面整件事的逻辑主语之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词proving。 【38题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：到了清代，原本从美洲传入的南瓜子和葵花子已经成为家家户户春节餐桌上必不可少的食物。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语By the Qing Dynasty可知，动作发生在过去的过去，要用过去完成时，其结构为“had +过去分词”，所以谓语动词为had become。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：在汉语中，“籽”与“子”同音，象征着多子多福、家庭美满的美好期许。same前必须加定冠词the，为固定用法，所以此处填the。 【40题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：科学家也研究了是什么让嗑瓜子成为如此令人愉悦的习惯。此处为连接词引导的宾语从句作studied的宾语，从句中缺少主语，指代事物，所以用连接代词what。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：答案存在于大脑的化学反应中。此处为固定搭配lie in，意为“在于、存在于”，所以此处为介词in。。 【42题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：每一次一粒籽被完全嗑开，大脑会得到一丝成就感作为奖赏，引发多巴胺释放，一种和愉悦紧密相关的化学物质，并使得下一粒籽比前一粒嗑起来更舒服。此处为谓语动词，主语the brain与reward之间为被动关系，句子描述客观规律，用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数，be动词用is。 【43题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：每一次一粒籽被完全嗑开，大脑会得到一丝成就感作为奖赏，引发多巴胺释放，一种和愉悦紧密相关的化学物质，并使得下一粒籽比前一粒嗑起来更舒服。根据后文than可知此处用比较级，nice的比较级为nicer。 【44题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：如今，嗑瓜子已经发展出带有地域特色的传统。regional后接名词，variety为可数名词，此处泛指多样的地域特色，用复数形式varieties。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：江浙地区的人们偏爱香甜香料调味的南瓜子，而四川人则喜欢麻辣口味的瓜子。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰pumpkin seeds，flavor与逻辑主语seeds之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词flavored/flavoured。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 为保护珍贵壁画（murals），敦煌莫高窟推出了线上“云参观”活动，该举措引发大众广泛讨论。当地英文报社就此话题向读者征文，请你投稿，内容包括： （1）你的观点； （2）说明理由； （3）提出合理建议。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Online Virtual Tour of the Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 支持云参观 One possible version: Online Virtual Tour of the Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang Personally, I strongly support the online virtual tour of the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. Firstly, the cloud tour reduces the number of offline visitors, which greatly cuts down on the human-caused damage to the precious murals. Secondly, it enables people nationwide and even worldwide to appreciate the splendid art at home with ease, spreading China’s unique culture far and wide. Moreover, this digital sightseeing costs far less than on-site trips, allowing those with tight budgets, especially students, access to cultural relics. To further improve the project, I suggest equipping the platform with an interactive quiz section to arouse more people’s interest. 反对云参观 One possible version: Online Virtual Tour of the Mogao Grottoes of Dunhuang Personally, popular as it is, Dunhuang’s online tour has clear downsides and cannot entirely replace real visits. Firstly, virtual viewing fails to offer visitors the immersive experience of appreciating ancient murals on the spot, weakening their unique charm. Additionally, it greatly reduces the number of on-site tourists, hitting the local cultural tourism economy. Worse still, shallow digital sightseeing discourages in-depth cultural research and field study activities. Thus, from my perspective, the best solution is to set daily visitor limits to protect the murals while still allowing people access to these cultural treasures in person. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生为当地英文报社投稿，针对敦煌莫高窟线上“云参观”活动发表个人观点、阐述支持理由并给出合理优化建议。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 支持：support → approve of 减少：reduce → decrease 盛大的：splendid → magnificent 激发：arouse → stimulate 2. 句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Personally, I strongly support the online virtual tour of the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. 拓展句：Personally, what I firmly support is that we promote the online virtual tour of the Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes. 【点睛】【高分句型 1】Firstly, the cloud tour reduces the number of offline visitors, which greatly cuts down on the human-caused damage to the precious murals.（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句） 【高分句型 2】Moreover, this digital sightseeing costs far less than on-site trips, allowing those with tight budgets, especially students, access to cultural relics.（运用了现在分词短语作状语) 第二节（满分25分） 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。 One sunny weekend morning, a quiet little girl named Ann came alone to the local animal shelter, which offered pet adoption services. The shelter aimed to help poor abandoned animals find new homes with caring families. Caring visitors could take any pet they liked home for free as long as they promised to take good care of them and filled relevant forms. Almost every visitor would choose those lively and healthy ones without hesitation. The girl walked awkwardly, shifting her weight cautiously with every step. No one noticed her strange movements. Shelter worker Ms Hale welcomed her warmly. With a big smile on her face, she introduced the lovely dogs in detail. Most puppies were energetic, running around and wagging their tails to draw Ann’s attention. However, Ann’s eyes were fixed steadily on a weak puppy (小狗) lying alone in the corner. The poor little puppy had a twisted back leg. It could never jump or run like other puppies and always stayed by itself. Soon, the girl pointed to the lonely puppy and asked, “What’s wrong with it?” Ms Hale patiently explained that the little puppy Haven had been knocked down by a speeding car two weeks ago. She was badly injured. After careful treatment from the shelter’s vet (兽医), she recovered, yet she would always walk with difficulty. Besides, abandoned by her owner, the dog was heartbroken and always looked sad. Unexpectedly, Ann stared lovingly at the puppy, pointed to it and said firmly, “It is this puppy that I am eager to have.” Confused, Ms Hale said, “But Haven needs extra care and patience. You’re still a child, so you’d better choose a healthy puppy.” Ann shook her head, but Ms Hale kept trying to persuade her not to take the puppy. Out of curiosity, all the other people in the shelter stared at them. 注意： 1. 要求续写词数应为150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly, Ann bent down, rolled up her trousers and showed her disabled leg. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, Ann took Haven home happily. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: Suddenly, Ann bent down, rolled up her trousers and showed her disabled leg. Having suffered a leg injury since childhood, she had been putting up with slow, awkward walks and often felt left out. She told Ms. Hale in a gentle but firm voice that she knew exactly how the disabled puppy felt — helpless and afraid to reach out to others. She added that unlike other healthy pets that could easily find owners, Haven needed more tolerance, constant companionship and genuine love. She promised that she would commit herself to keeping the poor puppy company and never would she abandon it. Witnessing Ann’s sincerity and empathy, Ms. Hale was deeply touched and approved her adoption application. Finally, Ann took Haven home happily. She devoted all her spare time to looking after it. She carefully prepared nutritious meals for it every day, gently cleaned its fur, and patiently helped it with recovery training to relieve its physical discomfort. Most importantly, she always accompanied and hugged it to drive away its fear. Time witnessed Haven’s amazing changes. The once lonely, depressed puppy gradually became lively and cheerful. On seeing Ann, it ran forward to greet her, wagging its tail excitedly and lying close in her arms. The two isolated souls healed each other perfectly. It was mutual understanding and pure love that turned their former loneliness into lasting warmth and happiness. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一个晴朗周末清晨，女孩安独自来到动物收容所。众人都挑选活泼健康的小狗，她却看中后腿残疾、无人问津的小狗海文。工作人员劝阻她，安露出自己受伤的腿，坦言深知残疾带来的无助与孤单，承诺会用心陪伴照料小狗。工作人员深受感动，同意她领养。此后安悉心照料海文，两个孤独的生命彼此治愈，收获长久温暖与幸福。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写安露出自己受伤的腿，坦言深知残疾带来的无助与孤单，承诺会用心陪伴照料小狗。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写工作人员深受感动，同意她领养。此后安悉心照料海文，两个孤独的生命彼此治愈，收获长久温暖与幸福。 2.续写线索：露出受伤的腿→坦白内心感受→许下照顾承诺→工作人员深受感动→同意领养→彼此陪伴 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①缓解：relieve/ease ②照顾：look after/attend to 情绪类 ①不安：discomfort/restlessness ②感动的：touched/moved 【点睛】[高分句型1] Having suffered a leg injury since childhood, she had been putting up with slow, awkward walks and often felt left out.（运用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] It was mutual understanding and pure love that turned their former loneliness into lasting warmth and happiness.（运用了强调句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
