Here’s a breakdown of the energy consumption and waste generation in 2023 across different stages of a typical play’s production cycle. Making theater more sustainable isn’t just about cutting energy use — it’s also about reimagining production supplies. While no universal “eco-theater” solution exists, a range of green alternatives are emerging. SET MATERIALS Reclaimed wood and modular props (模块化道具). Sourced from recycled construction waste or reusable parts, they cut down on post-show set waste. COSTUMES Upcycled clothing. Repurposed from secondhand stores or old fabrics, they avoid the environmental cost of manufacturing new costumes and lower textile waste. LIGHTING LED stage lights. Using 75% less energy than traditional stage lights and lasting longer, they reduce both energy consumption and replacement waste. PROPS Biodegradable (可生物降解的) accessories. Made from materials like paper, bamboo, or natural fibers, they decompose easily after use, avoiding long-term landfill pollution. This shift toward sustainable theater is global, and the extent of transformation is “unlike anything we’ve seen before,” says Liam Carter, a renowned theater director. It’s estimated that the number of annual theatrical performances worldwide will increase by 40% by 2040, putting even more pressure on resources. However, experts believe that circular production models and material innovation can drive meaningful progress, keeping pace with the sweeping trend of energy conservation and emission reduction. “The future of theater is restorative and regenerative by design,” says Carter. 21. Which stage caused the most energy and waste in 2023? A. Set design and construction. B. Lighting and sound operations. C. Costume maintenance and storage. D. Transportation of props and costumes. 22. What do the four alternatives have in common? A. They require new energy. B. They use recycled materials. C. They avoid long-term pollution. D. They target fewer environmental impacts. 23. What does Carter stress regarding the future of theater? A. Sustainable and renewable. B. Wasteful and limited. C. Traditional and productive. D. Profitable and popular. B A visit to a supermarket offers various fresh produce, from vegetables to berries and fruits. Shoppers can easily pick strawberries or apples. For farmers, however, the choice is far harder. They must decide what to grow while worrying about water supply and whether they can make money — or even break even. Farming is full of uncertainties, according to mathematician Estelle Basor. Farmers face unpredictable weather, harmful pests, and the economic rule of supply and demand. For instance, overplanting strawberries can lower prices, leaving farmers unable to cover growing costs. Basor grew up in California’s Pajaro Valley, a key agricultural region. As a mathematician, she led a team to help farmers choose crops and save water. California supplies 80 percent of America’s fresh strawberries, but frequent drought and over-pumping have severely lowered underground water levels. Farmers pump water faster than rain can refill it, forcing them to consider less thirsty crops. The team collected data on water use, prices and market demand. Using computer programs, they found the best crop mix: maximum profit with minimal water. This method, called mathematical optimization, was tested on a 100-acre farm. Results showed raspberries, needing less water, were more profitable than strawberries. They cooperate with local growers to gather real data on crop sales. Such field information improves their model so it balances water use and market need for fruits grown in Pajaro Valley. The model has received positive feedback from local farmers. It aims to help farmers nationwide deal with water shortages. Thanks to Basor’s efforts, science is offering a practical way for farmers to balance water use and income. 24. What does the underlined phrase “break even” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Win great fame. B. Avoid losing money. C. Keep crop quality. D. Increase crop sales. 25. What challenge do California farmers face? A. Fierce foreign market competition. B. Declining customers’ demand. C. Insufficient water supply for crops. D. Shallow underground water. 26. How did the team help local farmers? A. By monitoring rainfall conditions. B. By offering advice on choosing crops. C. By raising crop prices for farmers. D. By teaching daily water-saving skills. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. New method for strawberry planting. B. Drought’s impact on local agriculture. C. Balancing water and profit with math. D. Approaches to raising farmers’ income. C Every year, over 14 million tons of plastic waste end up in the world’s oceans, according to the UN Environment Programme. This waste kills millions of marine animals each year, pollutes fragile coastal ecosystems, and breaks down into microplastics that enter the food chain and reach the human body. Most of this plastic comes from single-use packaging, designed for days of use but able to persist in oceans for hundreds of years. Now, scientists and startups worldwide are turning to an unlikely solution to this global crisis: fungi. At the heart of this innovation is mycelium (菌丝体), the root-like structure of fungi. Made of tiny thread-like filaments, mycelium grows by feeding on organic matter, binding into a strong, flexible, fully biodegradable material. To make fungal packaging, manufacturers use agricultural waste (wheat straw, rice husks, sawdust) as a growth medium, mix it with mycelium spores, place it into molds, and let it grow in a controlled environment for 5-7 days. It is then heat-treated to stop growth, forming a lightweight, durable packaging made without harmful chemicals, high temperatures or massive energy input. Unlike plastic that never fully breaks down, fungal packaging is 100% biodegradable. It decomposes in soil in 30 days, and most importantly, fully breaks down in seawater within 3-6 months, leaving no microplastics or toxic residues. This makes it an ideal replacement for plastic packaging used to transport seafood, cosmetics and electronics, major contributors to marine plastic pollution. Major companies worldwide are adopting the technology. A Dutch startup FungiPack uses it for seafood shipping, while Chinese firm MycoGreen produces it for electronics, reporting a 70% reduction in carbon emissions compared to plastic production. It still faces challenges: higher cost than mass-produced plastic, and poor water resistance. But with ongoing optimization, it will soon become a viable alternative to most ocean-bound plastic. “Plastic was a miracle invention, but we forgot to design materials for the end of their life,” says Dr. Jane Zhao, a Tsinghua University materials scientist. “Mycelium works with nature, not against it. That’s the future of sustainable packaging.” 28. What is the biggest advantage of fungal packaging over traditional plastic? A. It can be reused many times B. It can fully degrade in seawater C. It is cheaper to mass-produce D. It has a longer service life in wet areas 29. What can we infer about the production of fungal packaging? A. It depends on high-quality farmland B. It requires a lot of fresh water and heat C. It has a lower carbon footprint than plastic D. It is more complex than plastic production 30. What does the underlined word “viable” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Rare and valuable B. Practical and functional C. Cheap and abundant D. Complex and advanced 31. What is Dr. Zhao’s attitude towards mycelium packaging technology? A. Optimistic B. Doubtful C. Critical D. Neutral D For decades, artificial intelligence has been designed to be confident. From chess-playing computers to medical diagnosis tools, AI systems are trained to produce a single, definitive answer. But a new wave of research suggests that the most reliable AI may actually be the one that learns to hesitate. Scientists at Stanford University have developed a framework called “Uncertainty-Aware AI” (UAI), which allows machine learning models to express when they are unsure. Instead of providing a single prediction, UAI outputs a confidence score along with multiple possible explanations. If the confidence falls below a threshold, the system flags the query for human review. In a recent trial involving radiology (放射学), UAI was tested against conventional AI systems. When analyzing chest X-rays, the conventional AI made a confident but incorrect diagnosis in 11% of ambiguous cases. UAI, by contrast, correctly identified 94% of those ambiguous cases as “uncertain” and passed them to human radiologists, reducing diagnostic errors by nearly 40%. “The traditional approach treats uncertainty as a weakness,” explains lead researcher Dr. James Chen. “But in high-stakes fields like medicine or autonomous driving, overconfidence can be dangerous. Teaching AI to recognize its limits isn’t just safer — it actually makes the system more trustworthy.” The implications extend beyond healthcare. In autonomous vehicles, for instance, a UAI system could signal when road conditions are too complex for safe self-driving, forcing a handover to the human driver. In financial trading, it could flag volatile (不稳定的) market conditions that exceed its predictive model. Despite the promise, challenges remain. UAI requires significantly more computational power and extensive training data to calibrate uncertainty accurately. Moreover, integrating such systems into existing workflows demands new protocols (规程) for when — and how — humans should step in. Nevertheless, the shift toward “humble AI” marks a philosophical departure from decades of AI development. As Dr. Chen puts it, “The smartest AI isn’t the one that always knows the answer. It’s the one that knows when it doesn’t.” 32. How is UAI different from conventional AI? A. It is only used in medicine. B. It can express its uncertainty. C. It avoids making predictions. D. It requires less computing power. 33. What did the radiology trial show about UAI? A. It reduces errors in uncertain cases. B. It outperforms human doctors greatly. C. It is sometimes too slow for practical use. D. It fails even in straightforward cases. 34. Why does the author mention autonomous vehicles? A. To compare their complexity. B. To highlight UAI’s limitations. C. To argue against using AI there. D. To show UAI’s wide applications. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Future of Medical AI B. Teaching AI to Express Uncertainty C. Why Overconfidence Harms AI D. Uncertainty: A New AI Challenge 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。 Many people view setbacks as roadblocks that stop their progress, but in reality, they can be powerful fuel for growth. If you often feel stuck after a setback and struggle to move forward, it’s time to examine your mindset and habits. 36 You avoid reflecting on the lessons. Setbacks carry hidden lessons, but a lot of people rush to move on without pausing to learn. 37 Nonetheless, do you take time to analyze what went wrong and what you could do differently? If not, you’re likely to repeat the same mistakes and miss the chance to grow stronger. You let self-doubt take over. It’s natural to feel uncertain after a failure, especially when others question your abilities. For example, you spent weeks preparing for a presentation, but it didn’t go as planned. You’ve told yourself before that you’re capable of growth, but after this failure, you start to believe you’re not good enough. 38 Your confidence fades, but you don’t fight against these negative thoughts. You give up too easily. Without a doubt, perseverance is valuable. 39 Yet giving up at the first sign of difficulty robs you of the chance to build resilience (抗逆力). Do you abandon goals when you hit a small barrier? Is “I can’t do this” your automatic response? This habit keeps you stuck in failure, rather than letting you use it as a stepping stone. 40 This is a subtle but harmful habit. If you compare your progress to others’ highlights, you’ll discount your own growth and lose motivation. Your struggles are a sign you’re pushing yourself, not a sign of weakness. Your unique path matters. A. You compare your progress to others’. B. You celebrate others’ achievements openly. C. You know that pushing through hardship is the right path. D. Chances are that you know you should reflect after a failure. E. Instead of questioning these beliefs, you accept them as truth. F. But you can use the following four ways to turn setbacks into motivation. G. Be aware of the traps that may keep you from turning setbacks into motivation. 第三部分 英语运用（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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Andrew Duhe wanted to choose a 41 gift to celebrate his wife Jennifer’s 40th birthday, and jewelry and flowers wouldn’t just 42 .

The wind howled wildly, tearing roofs off houses and uprooting trees. Heavy rain kept pouring down for hours, resulting in severe flooding and huge losses. Although our city was not directly hit, the strong wind and heavy rain made us share their sufferings. Unluckily, other nearby cities, however, suffered far more from the disaster. One of my most vivid memories was when I watched the evening news with my family. A reporter was broadcasting from a local stadium, which served as a temporary shelter for hurricane survivors. Thousands of homeless people crowded around him. Most were dressed in torn and muddy clothes, and worse still, many had to walk barefoot. Exhausted and heartbroken, some rested on extremely simple beds, while others could only lie on the cold hard floor, their faces full of sorrow, tiredness and hopelessness. The impact of the hurricane was worse than I expected. “Did the terrible hurricane drive them away from their homes?” I asked curiously. My mom nodded gently and sighed. “Yes, Hector. All these people are from New Orleans. The powerful storm ruined their homes and possessions. Sadly, many of them have lost everything they once owned. For the time being, the stadium works as their temporary home. It is a place for them to stay until it becomes safe enough to return to their own hometowns.” As I kept staring at the TV screen, a little boy immediately caught my eye. He was sitting alone in a quiet corner of the stadium, holding an old, dirty teddy bear tightly in his arms. His pale face was filled with fear and loneliness, as if the worn toy was his only comfort left after the disaster. I seemed to feel his deep sorrow right through the screen. Right then and there, I made up my mind to do something, with that poor little boy as my first concern. 注意： （1）写作词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next day, my friends and I gathered at our volunteer club. When we entered the stadium with our gifts, I quickly spotted the shy little boy. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
