Our adventures started on a sunny morning when we got off from our boat in Santarém after a three and a half day boat trip on the Amazon. Our guide Gil, whom we contacted weeks earlier, was waiting for us in the port. We were worried, as the boat trip took a day more than expected, and we didn’t have any chance to communicate with Gil, but fortunately he was prepared for our late arrival. Gil was brought up in the thick forest, so he knows all secrets of this incredibly rich environment. With no tracks, we had to cut through the jungle to search for a place to spend the night. After a couple of hours, we found a big tree ideal to attach the hammocks (吊床) to. We cleared ground and hung up our hammocks. It was dark when we made fire for dinner. Gil stuck some branches of a tree to pieces of chicken and we cooked them in the fire. It tasted great with special cooking spice. When the fire was out, complete darkness came upon us, and this was the moment when the jungle around woke up. We started to hear louder and louder the noise of crickets, scorpions, small birds and monkeys which were jumping from tree to tree just above our heads. Many times we woke up during the night, when small branches or leaves fell into our hammocks. We could not sleep deeply, but we enjoyed listening to the music of the rainforest, which was an unbelievable experience. We got up at 4 AM to see the sunrise from a very special place. We listened again to the sound of the roaring monkeys, and we were left breathless seeing the sunrise over the jungle. On the way out of the jungle, we saw a deer crossing the road. 4. Why did the author feel worried in the first paragraph? A. They failed to find the port in time. B. Their boat arrived later than planned. C. They lost contact with Gil on the way. D. They met bad weather on the journey. 5. Which of the following best describes Gil? A. Shy and well-organized. B. Experienced and reliable. C. Knowledgeable and smart. D. Adventurous and humorous. 6. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning “the music of the rainforest” in paragraph 3? A. Their sleepless night. B. The fear of the jungle. C. The noisy environment. D. The unique charm of the jungle. 7. Where does the passage probably come from? A. A news report. B. A travel guide. C. A travel journal. D. A geography textbook. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要记叙了作者环球旅行期间，在亚马逊雨林过夜的一次奇妙野外冒险经历，详细讲述了行程波折、雨林扎营、夜间见闻与清晨观赏日出的全过程。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“We were worried, as the boat trip took a day more than expected, and we didn’t have any chance to communicate with Gil, but fortunately he was prepared for our late arrival.(我们很担心，因为乘船行程比预期多花了一天，我们没有任何机会和Gil取得联系，但幸运的是，他已经为我们的迟到做好了准备)”可知，作者一行人担忧的原因是船只抵达时间晚于原定计划。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“We were worried, as the boat trip took a day more than expected, and we didn’t have any chance to communicate with Gil, but fortunately he was prepared for our late arrival.(我们很担心，因为乘船行程比预期多花了一天，我们没有任何机会和Gil取得联系，但幸运的是，他已经为我们的迟到做好了准备)”以及第二段“Gil was brought up in the thick forest, so he knows all secrets of this incredibly rich environment.(Gil在茂密的雨林中长大，所以他知晓这片物产极其丰富环境下的所有奥秘)”可知，Gil有经验且值得信赖。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“We could not sleep deeply, but we enjoyed listening to the music of the rainforest, which was an unbelievable experience.(我们无法熟睡，但我们很享受聆听雨林的乐曲，这是一段难以置信的经历)”可知，作者将雨林各类生物的声响比作乐曲，意在凸显雨林独有的魅力与特色。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“One of the most amazing experiences of our Round-The-World trip was spending a night in the Amazon rainforest.(我们环球旅行中最令人惊叹的经历之一，就是在亚马逊雨林过夜)”可知，全文以第一人称亲身视角记录旅途经历、个人感受与游玩细节，属于旅行日记文体。 C Tree-planting has become a go-to tool for taking carbon out of the atmosphere and repairing deforested habitats. And indeed, reforestation — planting trees in historically forested area — is the most beneficial option, providing habitat for wildlife while storing carbon. But if done incorrectly, planting trees can come with a significant cost to biodiversity. “Right tree, right place, right way,” said Susan Cook-Patton, senior forest restoration scientist for The Nature Conservancy, repeating a slogan the organization uses to encourage sustainable reforestation. Sustainable projects should prioritize native trees in places that historically had them. This misconception that planting trees automatically creates habitat for species has often led to environmental changes that hurt both wildlife and people, Cook-Patton said. Habitat connectivity, animals’ population sizes and changing weather patterns ultimately drive whether wildlife will make use of newly forested areas, she said. As countries use land-based strategies to meet climate goals, Jeffrey Smith noted that changing habitats — removing, replacing or adding trees — has a much bigger effect on vertebrate (脊椎动物) species than climate change itself so far. “It’s not to say that addressing climate change isn’t good for biodiversity, but we have to be really aware of what it means for habitats,” he said. Another unintended effect of planting trees in historically unforested areas is albedo (反射率): the amount of sunlight reflected off of a surface. Lighter landscapes, such as a desert, reflect more solar energy, which keeps temperatures cooler. But darker landscapes, such as thick forests, absorb solar energy, increasing temperatures. The number-one option, however, is protecting existing forests. It stores more carbon, protects more biodiversity, and is 7-9 times more cost-effective than tearing them down and regrowing them later, according to a study in Nature Climate Change. “Given the urgency of climate action, preserving what’s left is crucial and properly restoring natural habitats with native species can go a long way for countries with limited resources.” Cook-Patton added, “We have to be very careful about how we communicate the complexities more broadly.” 8. Why does the author quote Susan Cook-Patton’s words “Right tree, right place, right way”? A. To criticize improper tree-planting. B. To popularize traditional tree-planting. C. To show the benefits of large-scale reforestation. D. To introduce a principle for sustainable reforestation. 9. What does the underlined word “drive” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Determine. B. Prevent. C. Weaken. D. Force. 10. What can be inferred about albedo from paragraph 4? A. Forests cool the air better than deserts. B. Low albedo creates cooler conditions. C. Dark surfaces can reflect large amounts of sunlight. D. Tree planting may warm historically treeless regions. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. More Forest, Less Carbon? B. More Trees, Better Planet? C. Native Trees: Key to Smart Reforestation D. Forest Conservation: A Solution to Biodiversity Loss 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了植树固碳修复林地，但不当栽种危害生物多样性；原生无树区种树会因地表反射率降低而升高气温，保护现存森林才是性价比最高的方案。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段““Right tree, right place, right way,” said Susan Cook-Patton, senior forest restoration scientist for The Nature Conservancy, repeating a slogan the organization uses to encourage sustainable reforestation. Sustainable projects should prioritize native trees in places that historically had them. (“合适的树、合适的地方、合适的方式，”大自然保护协会高级森林恢复科学家苏珊·库克-帕顿说道，她重复了该组织用来鼓励可持续造林的口号。可持续项目应优先在历史上曾有原生树木的地区种植本地树种。)”可知，作者引用苏珊·库克-帕顿的话“合适的树、合适的地方、合适的方法”是为了介绍可持续造林的原则。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Habitat connectivity, animals’ population sizes and changing weather patterns ultimately drive whether wildlife will make use of newly forested areas (栖息地连通性、动物种群规模以及气候变化最终drive了野生动物是否会利用新造林区域)”可知，栖息地连通性等因素决定野生动物是否利用新林地，故划线词意思是“决定”。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Another unintended effect of planting trees in historically unforested areas is albedo (反射率): the amount of sunlight reflected off of a surface. Lighter landscapes, such as a desert, reflect more solar energy, which keeps temperatures cooler. But darker landscapes, such as thick forests, absorb solar energy, increasing temperatures. (在历史上无林地区种植树木的另一个意外影响是反射率：即表面反射阳光的多少。较浅色的景观，例如沙漠，会反射更多的太阳能量，从而保持温度较低。而较深色的景观，如茂密的森林，则会吸收太阳能量，导致气温升高。)”可知，植树可能会使历史上无树地区变暖。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“But if done incorrectly, planting trees can come with a significant cost to biodiversity. “Right tree, right place, right way,” said Susan Cook-Patton, senior forest restoration scientist for The Nature Conservancy, repeating a slogan the organization uses to encourage sustainable reforestation. Sustainable projects should prioritize native trees in places that historically had them. (但如果操作不当，植树可能会对生物多样性造成重大损害。“合适的树、合适的地方、合适的方式，”大自然保护协会高级森林恢复科学家苏珊·库克-帕顿说道，她重复了该组织用来鼓励可持续造林的口号。可持续项目应优先在历史上曾有原生树木的地区种植本地树种。)”结合文章主要说明了植树固碳修复林地，但不当栽种危害生物多样性；原生无树区种树会因地表反射率降低而升高气温，保护现存森林才是性价比最高的方案。可知，B选项“树木越多，地球就越好？”最符合文章标题。 D While traditional smart windows are often associated with protecting indoors from heat and unwanted sunlight, their reflective impact on outdoor environments is frequently overlooked. A research team led by Professor Hong Chul Moon from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has developed a smart window technology that allows users to adjust incoming light and heat according to their needs, while also reducing strong light for pedestrians (行人). Unlike traditional smart windows, which passively respond to changes in temperature or light, these Korean smart windows allow real-time control via electrical signals. Their next-generation system, known as RECM, uses an electrical device to actively regulate the passing of both visible and near-infrared (近红线的) light that is invisible but produces heat. The RECM system works in three distinct modes, each activated by voltage (电压) control. In Mode I, ideal for winter months, this mode allows both sunlight and heat to pass through, much like a traditional window, to warm up indoor spaces naturally. In Mode Ⅱ, the window takes on a deep blue thanks to a chemical reaction forming two elements, providing privacy and a heat-blocking effect. In Mode Ⅲ, small metal bits attach to the surface and create a reflective layer that blocks both light and heat. Meanwhile, the colored layer absorbs reflected light, reducing external strong light and protecting pedestrians from being blinded. The research team also demonstrated the technology’s practical heat-blocking effect in an experiment using a small model house. While the indoor temperature of a model with regular glass rose to 58.7℃ in 45 minutes, the model equipped with the RECM technology in Mode Ⅲ only saw a rise to 31.5℃. “This research introduces a smart window platform that goes beyond current technology, which is limited to controlling indoor light, by also providing practical heat reduction and decreasing strong light for pedestrians,” said Professor Moon. “In the future, it could be used in various industries, including not only architecture but also in vehicles, trains, and more.” 12. What is a common problem with traditional smart windows? A. Inability to adjust indoor heat. B. Poor control over indoor sunlight. C. Lack of indoor privacy protection. D. Ignorance of external reflection effects. 13. What makes Mode Ⅲ different from the other two modes? A. Letting in sunlight directly. B. Changing into a blue state. C. Relying on outdoor temperatures. D. Benefiting indoor and outdoor environments. 14. What can be concluded from the experiment in paragraph 4? A. Regular glass fails to block outdoor heat. B. Mode Ⅲ consumes more electrical power. C. The system performs well in blocking heat. D. Indoor temperature depends on window sizes. 15. What is Professor Moon’s attitude towards the RECM technology? A. Positive. B. Neutral. C. Doubtful. D. Conservative. 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍韩国科学家研发的新型智能窗户技术(RECM)，能实时调节光线热量，并减少对行人的强光反射，具有多种工作模式，有效阻挡热量，应用前景广阔。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“While traditional smart windows are often associated with protecting indoors from heat and unwanted sunlight, their reflective impact on outdoor environments is frequently overlooked. (虽然传统的智能窗户通常与保护室内免受热量和不需要的阳光有关，但它们对室外环境的反射影响经常被忽视。)”可知，传统智能窗户存在的一个常见问题是忽视了其对外部环境的反射影响。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中的“In Mode I, ideal for winter months, this mode allows both sunlight and heat to pass through, much like a traditional window, to warm up indoor spaces naturally.(在模式Ⅰ下，这种模式非常适合冬季月份，阳光和热量都能穿透进来，就像传统窗户一样，从而自然地使室内空间变暖。)”以及“In Mode Ⅱ, the window takes on a deep blue thanks to a chemical reaction forming two elements, providing privacy and a heat-blocking effect. (在模式Ⅱ下，由于发生化学反应生成了两种物质，窗户会呈现出深蓝色，从而提供私密性并起到隔热的作用。)”以及“In Mode Ⅲ, small metal bits attach to the surface and create a reflective layer that blocks both light and heat. Meanwhile, the colored layer absorbs reflected light, reducing external strong light and protecting pedestrians from being blinded.(在模式Ⅲ下，细小的金属颗粒会附着在表面，形成一层反射层，从而阻挡光线和热量。与此同时，彩色层会吸收反射光，减少外部强光，使行人免受眩目。)”，同时根据倒数第二段中“While the indoor temperature of a model with regular glass rose to 58.7℃ in 45 minutes, the model equipped with the RECM technology in Mode Ⅲ only saw a rise to 31.5℃.(普通玻璃模型的室内温度在45分钟内升至58.7℃，而采用RECM技术Ⅲ模式的模型仅上升至31.5℃。)”可知，模式Ⅲ不仅阻挡光和热（改善室内），还能减少外部强光保护行人（改善室外）。因此，模式Ⅲ与其他两种模式的不同之处在于它同时有利于室内和室外环境。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中的“While the indoor temperature of a model with regular glass rose to 58.7℃ in 45 minutes, the model equipped with the RECM technology in Mode Ⅲ only saw a rise to 31.5℃. (虽然配备普通玻璃的模型室内温度在45分钟内升至58.7℃，但配备模式ⅢRECM技术的模型仅升至31.5℃。)”可知，通过对比实验数据，可以得出结论：该系统在阻挡热量方面表现良好。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中Moon教授的话“In the future, it could be used in various industries, including not only architecture but also in vehicles, trains, and more.(未来，它不仅可用于建筑领域，还可应用于汽车、火车等多个行业。)”可知，Moon教授认为该技术超越了现有水平，并展望了其在未来的广泛应用，这表明他对RECM技术持积极、肯定的态度。A选项“Positive.(积极的)”符合题意。 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。 The term “Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (注意缺陷多动障碍)” was formalized in 1987, and it has been a source of confusion ever since. The name implies two things: that people with ADHD cannot pay attention, and that they are physically hyperactive. ____16____ People with ADHD can pay attention. In many cases, they can pay extraordinary attention, sometimes to the point of losing track of time. This capacity for deep focus, often called hyperfocus, is not a contradiction of the diagnosis. ____17____ The real issue isn’t the amount of attention, but the ability to consistently direct it toward important yet uninteresting tasks. Dr. William Dodson, a specialist in ADHD, describes their nervous system as “interest-based” rather than “priority-based.” ____18____ While some children with ADHD are visibly restless, many girls are not hyperactive at all in the physical sense. In adults, hyperactivity often transforms into internal restlessness: a mind that will not quiet down, difficulty sitting through meetings or relaxing without a screen. A comprehensive review of 31 behavioral studies found that ADHD is associated with genuine creative strengths, particularly in generating novel ideas and overcoming conventional thinking patterns. ____19____ Part of effective ADHD treatment is building the system that allows these creative strengths to actually produce results in the real world. Experts put forward the term VAST to redefine ADHD, regarding it as a different brain rather than a broken one. ____20____ Although ADHD brings real troubles in daily life, it also comes with unique strengths. We should treat ADHD as a different way of thinking, not a mental defect. A. In fact, both of these are incomplete descriptions. B. The hyperactivity component is similarly misunderstood. C. It is a core feature of how the ADHD brain regulates attention. D. This suggests that regulating attention is not a challenge for them. E. So improving creative thinking is the key to helping people with ADHD. F. This new definition helps correct the long-standing public misunderstanding. G. But creativity alone does not pay the bills if they have barriers to follow-through. 【答案】16. A 17. C 18. B 19. G 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了人们对注意缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）存在长期误解，专家指出ADHD人群并非无法专注、多动表现因人而异，该病症伴随创造力优势，并用新术语VAST重新定义ADHD，呼吁将其视作独特思维模式而非精神缺陷。 【16题详解】 由前文“The name implies two things: that people with ADHD cannot pay attention, and that they are physically hyperactive.(这个名称暗含两层含义：多动症患者无法集中注意力，且身体过度活跃)”可知，前文介绍大众对ADHD名字包含的两种片面认知，本空要说这两种描述都不完整，选项A表示“事实上，这两种说法都表述片面”，能承接上文，引出下文对两种误解的逐一纠正，符合题意。 【17题详解】 由前文“This capacity for deep focus, often called hyperfocus, is not a contradiction of the diagnosis.(这种深度专注的能力，即过度专注，并不与病症诊断相悖)”和后文“The real issue isn’t the amount of attention, but the ability to consistently direct it toward important yet uninteresting tasks.(真正的问题不在于注意力多少，而在于持续把注意力放在枯燥重要事务上的能力)”可知，前文提出多动症人群可以深度专注，后文说明其注意力调控存在短板，本空要说明过度专注是多动症大脑调控注意力的核心特征，选项C表示“这是多动症大脑调节注意力的核心特征”，能承上启下，符合题意。 【18题详解】 由后文“While some children with ADHD are visibly restless, many girls are not hyperactive at all in the physical sense. In adults, hyperactivity often transforms into internal restlessness: a mind that will not quiet down, difficulty sitting through meetings or relaxing without a screen.(虽然一些患有注意缺陷多动障碍的孩子会明显坐立不安，但很多女孩完全不存在肢体上的多动表现。到了成年阶段，多动症状往往会转变为内心焦躁：大脑始终无法平静，难以全程安坐参会，或是不看电子屏幕就无法放松)”可知，本段围绕大众对“多动”这一特征的错误理解展开，本题总起本段，指出多动同样被人们误解，选项B表示“多动这一特征同样被大众误解”，能概括本段内容，符合题意。 【19题详解】 由前文“A comprehensive review of 31 behavioral studies found that ADHD is associated with genuine creative strengths, particularly in generating novel ideas and overcoming conventional thinking patterns.(一项对31项行为研究的全面综述发现，注意力缺陷多动障碍（ADHD）与真正的创造力相关，尤其是在生成新想法和克服传统思维模式方面表现突出)”和后文“Part of effective ADHD treatment is building the system that allows these creative strengths to actually produce results in the real world.(有效治疗多动症的一部分，是建立一个系统，使这些创造力的优势能够在现实世界中真正产生成果)”可知，前文讲创造力优势，后文讲需要配套体系实现价值，本空要说明仅有创造力无法成事，缺少落实执行力，选项G表示“但如果无法坚持落地，光有创造力并不能解决现实问题”，能承上启下，符合题意。 【20题详解】 由前文“Experts put forward the term VAST to redefine ADHD, regarding it as a different brain rather than a broken one.(专家提出VAST重新定义ADHD，认为只是大脑类型不同而非大脑受损。)”和后文“Although ADHD brings real troubles in daily life, it also comes with unique strengths.(尽管多动症会给日常生活带来实际困扰，但它也伴随着独特的优点)”可知，前文介绍全新定义，后文阐述正确看待ADHD的态度，本空要说明新定义纠正了长久以来的大众误解，选项F表示“这一新定义有助于纠正长期存在的公众误解”，能承接上文新定义，引出下文客观看待病症的观点，符合题意。 第二部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Most 10-year-olds spend their free time playing video games, but Ernesto is different.

My husband Eric was on business trip, so after picking up my 11-year-old son Nathan from school, I’d popped into the grocery store to buy a roast chicken for dinner. I figured that would buy me an extra hour to work on my project, since I wouldn’t have to cook that night. Now, it was 6:00 p.m., and I was typing away, making good progress. My kids were downstairs watching TV. My eleven-year-old son, Nathan, came into the room and said, “Mom, I’m getting hungry. Can you warm up the chicken now?” “In a little bit,” I answered without looking up from the computer. Ten minutes later, my older son Jordan came in to tell me he was hungry too. Fifteen minutes after that, my eighteen-year-old daughter Julia made the same request. I exploded: “Every one of you is old enough to put a roast chicken in the microwave. I have to finish the project before 3:00 tomorrow. I would think you would realize that I’m busy and just take some responsibility.” Twenty minutes later, a paper plate filled with chicken appeared on the desk next to my computer. I smiled sheepishly at the kids. “Sorry I yelled at you guys. I’m just so tired of being ATF around here.” “ATF?” “All Things Food. It’s my responsibility to plan the meals, shop for the food, cook the food, and then clean up the dishes afterward. If it’s food-related, it automatically falls to me.” Julia looked at her brothers, “In the following day, the three of us are ATF. Let’s leave Mom alone and go make a plan.” The next morning, Julia came home, carrying multiple bags of food with her brothers. An hour later, Nathan literally tiptoed into the room to deliver my breakfast to me and smiled, “I hope your work is going well,” he whispered and then tiptoed back downstairs. 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。 After several productive hours of work, I could smell something cooking. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We were about to have lunch when my husband came back. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: After several productive hours of work, I could smell something cooking. The delicious scent of garlic and tomatoes drifted up to my room, making my stomach rumble. Curious, I saved my project and quietly went downstairs to investigate. I found my three children working together in the kitchen, a scene I had rarely witnessed. Jordan was carefully stirring a large pot of spaghetti sauce while Nathan set the table with surprising focus. Julia, their confident leader, smiled at me and announced, “Lunch will be ready in five minutes, Mom.” We were about to have lunch when my husband came back. Eric walked in with a suitcase, his eyes lighting up at the scene. “Wow, what a feast!” he laughed, putting down his bag. With visible pride on their faces, the kids rushed to tell him about their “ATF plan,” and I explained how they’d taken over all food tasks. Over lunch, we chatted and laughed. I felt the stress from my project melt away, replaced by overwhelming love for my thoughtful family. As I bit into the tasty soup, I realized that family isn’t just about taking care of others, but letting them take care of you too. 【解析】 【导语】本文以ATF家庭分工为线索展开，讲述了工作压力巨大的母亲因三餐琐事独自操劳向孩子发火，懂事的三个孩子主动提出接管所有饮食相关事务，亲手为母亲准备三餐，出差归来的丈夫目睹暖心一幕，母亲也从中感悟到家人之间应互相照顾、彼此分担的温情故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写母亲闻到饭菜香气下楼，目睹三个孩子分工协作下厨、布置餐桌，孩子告知午餐即将做好的温馨画面。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写丈夫出差回家，惊喜看到满桌饭菜，孩子们兴奋分享ATF分工计划，一家人共进午餐，母亲卸下工作压力，领悟家庭相处真谛。 2.续写线索：烦躁发火——孩子体恤主动承担饮食事务——孩子早起准备早餐——母亲闻到饭菜香味下楼查看——孩子们合力制作午餐——丈夫归家，全家共享午餐，母亲心生感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①咕咕叫：rumble/growl ②亲眼看见：witness/behold ③放下：put down/set aside 情绪类 ①充满好奇的：curious/inquisitive ②体贴的：thoughtful/considerate 【点睛】【高分句型1】The delicious scent of garlic and tomatoes drifted up to my room, making my stomach rumble.(运用了现在分词短语作结果状语) 【高分句型2】Eric walked in with a suitcase, his eyes lighting up at the scene.(运用了独立主格) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 湛江市2025—2026学年度第二学期期末调研考试 高二英语 试卷共8页，卷面满分120分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答题前，先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．选择题的作答：每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3．非选择题的作答：用签字笔直接答在答题卡上对应的答题区域内。写在试题卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4．考试结束后，请将本试题卷和答题卡一并上交。 第一部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Do you want to challenge yourself and show your work?

Our adventures started on a sunny morning when we got off from our boat in Santarém after a three and a half day boat trip on the Amazon. Our guide Gil, whom we contacted weeks earlier, was waiting for us in the port. We were worried, as the boat trip took a day more than expected, and we didn’t have any chance to communicate with Gil, but fortunately he was prepared for our late arrival. Gil was brought up in the thick forest, so he knows all secrets of this incredibly rich environment. With no tracks, we had to cut through the jungle to search for a place to spend the night. After a couple of hours, we found a big tree ideal to attach the hammocks (吊床) to. We cleared ground and hung up our hammocks. It was dark when we made fire for dinner. Gil stuck some branches of a tree to pieces of chicken and we cooked them in the fire. It tasted great with special cooking spice. When the fire was out, complete darkness came upon us, and this was the moment when the jungle around woke up. We started to hear louder and louder the noise of crickets, scorpions, small birds and monkeys which were jumping from tree to tree just above our heads. Many times we woke up during the night, when small branches or leaves fell into our hammocks. We could not sleep deeply, but we enjoyed listening to the music of the rainforest, which was an unbelievable experience. We got up at 4 AM to see the sunrise from a very special place. We listened again to the sound of the roaring monkeys, and we were left breathless seeing the sunrise over the jungle. On the way out of the jungle, we saw a deer crossing the road. 4. Why did the author feel worried in the first paragraph? A. They failed to find the port in time. B. Their boat arrived later than planned. C. They lost contact with Gil on the way. D. They met bad weather on the journey. 5. Which of the following best describes Gil? A. Shy and well-organized. B. Experienced and reliable. C. Knowledgeable and smart. D. Adventurous and humorous. 6. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning “the music of the rainforest” in paragraph 3? A. Their sleepless night. B. The fear of the jungle. C. The noisy environment. D. The unique charm of the jungle. 7. Where does the passage probably come from? A. A news report. B. A travel guide. C. A travel journal. D. A geography textbook. C Tree-planting has become a go-to tool for taking carbon out of the atmosphere and repairing deforested habitats. And indeed, reforestation — planting trees in historically forested area — is the most beneficial option, providing habitat for wildlife while storing carbon. But if done incorrectly, planting trees can come with a significant cost to biodiversity. “Right tree, right place, right way,” said Susan Cook-Patton, senior forest restoration scientist for The Nature Conservancy, repeating a slogan the organization uses to encourage sustainable reforestation. Sustainable projects should prioritize native trees in places that historically had them. This misconception that planting trees automatically creates habitat for species has often led to environmental changes that hurt both wildlife and people, Cook-Patton said. Habitat connectivity, animals’ population sizes and changing weather patterns ultimately drive whether wildlife will make use of newly forested areas, she said. As countries use land-based strategies to meet climate goals, Jeffrey Smith noted that changing habitats — removing, replacing or adding trees — has a much bigger effect on vertebrate (脊椎动物) species than climate change itself so far. “It’s not to say that addressing climate change isn’t good for biodiversity, but we have to be really aware of what it means for habitats,” he said. Another unintended effect of planting trees in historically unforested areas is albedo (反射率): the amount of sunlight reflected off of a surface. Lighter landscapes, such as a desert, reflect more solar energy, which keeps temperatures cooler. But darker landscapes, such as thick forests, absorb solar energy, increasing temperatures. The number-one option, however, is protecting existing forests. It stores more carbon, protects more biodiversity, and is 7-9 times more cost-effective than tearing them down and regrowing them later, according to a study in Nature Climate Change. “Given the urgency of climate action, preserving what’s left is crucial and properly restoring natural habitats with native species can go a long way for countries with limited resources.” Cook-Patton added, “We have to be very careful about how we communicate the complexities more broadly.” 8. Why does the author quote Susan Cook-Patton’s words “Right tree, right place, right way”? A. To criticize improper tree-planting. B. To popularize traditional tree-planting. C. To show the benefits of large-scale reforestation. D. To introduce a principle for sustainable reforestation. 9. What does the underlined word “drive” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Determine. B. Prevent. C. Weaken. D. Force. 10. What can be inferred about albedo from paragraph 4? A. Forests cool the air better than deserts. B. Low albedo creates cooler conditions. C. Dark surfaces can reflect large amounts of sunlight. D. Tree planting may warm historically treeless regions. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. More Forest, Less Carbon? B. More Trees, Better Planet? C. Native Trees: Key to Smart Reforestation D. Forest Conservation: A Solution to Biodiversity Loss D While traditional smart windows are often associated with protecting indoors from heat and unwanted sunlight, their reflective impact on outdoor environments is frequently overlooked. A research team led by Professor Hong Chul Moon from the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology has developed a smart window technology that allows users to adjust incoming light and heat according to their needs, while also reducing strong light for pedestrians (行人). Unlike traditional smart windows, which passively respond to changes in temperature or light, these Korean smart windows allow real-time control via electrical signals. Their next-generation system, known as RECM, uses an electrical device to actively regulate the passing of both visible and near-infrared (近红线的) light that is invisible but produces heat. The RECM system works in three distinct modes, each activated by voltage (电压) control. In Mode I, ideal for winter months, this mode allows both sunlight and heat to pass through, much like a traditional window, to warm up indoor spaces naturally. In Mode Ⅱ, the window takes on a deep blue thanks to a chemical reaction forming two elements, providing privacy and a heat-blocking effect. In Mode Ⅲ, small metal bits attach to the surface and create a reflective layer that blocks both light and heat. Meanwhile, the colored layer absorbs reflected light, reducing external strong light and protecting pedestrians from being blinded. The research team also demonstrated the technology’s practical heat-blocking effect in an experiment using a small model house. While the indoor temperature of a model with regular glass rose to 58.7℃ in 45 minutes, the model equipped with the RECM technology in Mode Ⅲ only saw a rise to 31.5℃. “This research introduces a smart window platform that goes beyond current technology, which is limited to controlling indoor light, by also providing practical heat reduction and decreasing strong light for pedestrians,” said Professor Moon. “In the future, it could be used in various industries, including not only architecture but also in vehicles, trains, and more.” 12. What is a common problem with traditional smart windows? A. Inability to adjust indoor heat. B. Poor control over indoor sunlight. C. Lack of indoor privacy protection. D. Ignorance of external reflection effects. 13. What makes Mode Ⅲ different from the other two modes? A. Letting in sunlight directly. B. Changing into a blue state. C. Relying on outdoor temperatures. D. Benefiting indoor and outdoor environments. 14. What can be concluded from the experiment in paragraph 4? A. Regular glass fails to block outdoor heat. B. Mode Ⅲ consumes more electrical power. C. The system performs well in blocking heat. D. Indoor temperature depends on window sizes. 15. What is Professor Moon’s attitude towards the RECM technology? A. Positive. B. Neutral. C. Doubtful. D. Conservative. 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。 The term “Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (注意缺陷多动障碍)” was formalized in 1987, and it has been a source of confusion ever since. The name implies two things: that people with ADHD cannot pay attention, and that they are physically hyperactive. ____16____ People with ADHD can pay attention. In many cases, they can pay extraordinary attention, sometimes to the point of losing track of time. This capacity for deep focus, often called hyperfocus, is not a contradiction of the diagnosis. ____17____ The real issue isn’t the amount of attention, but the ability to consistently direct it toward important yet uninteresting tasks. Dr. William Dodson, a specialist in ADHD, describes their nervous system as “interest-based” rather than “priority-based.” ____18____ While some children with ADHD are visibly restless, many girls are not hyperactive at all in the physical sense. In adults, hyperactivity often transforms into internal restlessness: a mind that will not quiet down, difficulty sitting through meetings or relaxing without a screen. A comprehensive review of 31 behavioral studies found that ADHD is associated with genuine creative strengths, particularly in generating novel ideas and overcoming conventional thinking patterns. ____19____ Part of effective ADHD treatment is building the system that allows these creative strengths to actually produce results in the real world. Experts put forward the term VAST to redefine ADHD, regarding it as a different brain rather than a broken one. ____20____ Although ADHD brings real troubles in daily life, it also comes with unique strengths. We should treat ADHD as a different way of thinking, not a mental defect. A. In fact, both of these are incomplete descriptions. B. The hyperactivity component is similarly misunderstood. C. It is a core feature of how the ADHD brain regulates attention. D. This suggests that regulating attention is not a challenge for them. E. So improving creative thinking is the key to helping people with ADHD. F. This new definition helps correct the long-standing public misunderstanding. G. But creativity alone does not pay the bills if they have barriers to follow-through. 第二部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Most 10-year-olds spend their free time playing video games, but Ernesto is different. He is busy ____21____ his own 3D printing business and dreaming of buying his mom a house someday.

My husband Eric was on business trip, so after picking up my 11-year-old son Nathan from school, I’d popped into the grocery store to buy a roast chicken for dinner. I figured that would buy me an extra hour to work on my project, since I wouldn’t have to cook that night. Now, it was 6:00 p.m., and I was typing away, making good progress. My kids were downstairs watching TV. My eleven-year-old son, Nathan, came into the room and said, “Mom, I’m getting hungry. Can you warm up the chicken now?” “In a little bit,” I answered without looking up from the computer. Ten minutes later, my older son Jordan came in to tell me he was hungry too. Fifteen minutes after that, my eighteen-year-old daughter Julia made the same request. I exploded: “Every one of you is old enough to put a roast chicken in the microwave. I have to finish the project before 3:00 tomorrow. I would think you would realize that I’m busy and just take some responsibility.” Twenty minutes later, a paper plate filled with chicken appeared on the desk next to my computer. I smiled sheepishly at the kids. “Sorry I yelled at you guys. I’m just so tired of being ATF around here.” “ATF?” “All Things Food. It’s my responsibility to plan the meals, shop for the food, cook the food, and then clean up the dishes afterward. If it’s food-related, it automatically falls to me.” Julia looked at her brothers, “In the following day, the three of us are ATF. Let’s leave Mom alone and go make a plan.” The next morning, Julia came home, carrying multiple bags of food with her brothers. An hour later, Nathan literally tiptoed into the room to deliver my breakfast to me and smiled, “I hope your work is going well,” he whispered and then tiptoed back downstairs. 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。 After several productive hours of work, I could smell something cooking. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We were about to have lunch when my husband came back. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
