Patagonia While it’s winter up north, Patagonia is in full summer mode. Long days, mild weather, and open hiking trails make this the best season to see native wildlife in Torres del Paine National Park. Pumas can be easily found and sightings of red foxes are also pretty common. Whether you’re hiking among forests or watching wildlife, Patagonia is impressive in the winter months. Antarctica For tourists, Antarctica is only accessible from November to March. Reaching Antarctica is a Bucket List item for many travelers. Travel to the white continent is more than a simple journey. It is an expedition travel, a dividing line that separates the traveling public into tourists and adventurers. An expedition ship to Antarctica is the closest you’ll probably ever come to visiting another planet. Bangkok Bangkok is extremely hot most of the year, but in winter it becomes pleasantly warm and far less unbearable. From street food stands to buzzing night markets, this energetic city is best explored when the heat and wetness are manageable. It’s also the perfect jumping-off point for Thailand’s islands. Sydney If you’re traveling in winter, nothing beats the festive magic of Australia markets. As a fast-paced, modern city, Sydney comes alive with festivals, which bring locals and visitors together. It kicks off the season with bright colors and festive energy and there is always something to keep you excited. 16. Which destination is characterized by wild animals? A. Patagonia. B. Antarctica. C. Bangkok. D. Sydney. 17. Who would most probably be drawn to Antarctica? A. Culture lovers. B. Space engineers. C. Job-hunters. D. Nature explorers. 18. What do the last two destinations have in common? A. They are perfect for island adventures. B. They are pleasant to travel year-round. C. They present energetic city life. D. They hold festivals day and night. 【答案】16. A 17. D 18. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了四个在冬季可以逃离寒冷、享受阳光的绝佳旅游目的地。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据Patagonia部分中“Long days, mild weather, and open hiking trails make this the best season to see native wildlife in Torres del Paine National Park. Pumas can be easily found and sightings of red foxes are also pretty common.(漫长的白天、温和的天气和开放的徒步路线使这个季节成为在托雷斯德尔佩恩国家公园观赏本地野生动物的最佳季节。美洲狮很容易被发现，看到赤狐也很常见。)”可知，巴塔哥尼亚以野生动物为特色。故选A。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。根据Antarctica部分中“For tourists, Antarctica is only accessible from November to March. Reaching Antarctica is a Bucket List item for many travelers. Travel to the white continent is more than a simple journey. It is an expedition travel, a dividing line that separates the traveling public into tourists and adventurers.(对于游客来说，南极洲只在11月至3月期间开放。对许多旅行者来说，到达南极洲是他们愿望清单上的一项。前往白色大陆的旅行不仅仅是一次简单的旅行。这是一次探险旅行，一条将旅行大众分为游客和冒险家的分界线。)”可知，自然探险家最有可能被南极洲吸引。故选D。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据Bangkok部分中“From street food stands to buzzing night markets, this energetic city is best explored when the heat and wetness are manageable.(从街头小吃摊到热闹的夜市，这座充满活力的城市最适合在炎热和潮湿可以控制的时候去探索。)”以及Sydney部分中“As a fast-paced, modern city, Sydney comes alive with festivals, which bring locals and visitors together.(作为一个快节奏的现代城市，悉尼因节日而充满活力，这些节日将当地人和游客聚集在一起。)”可知，最后两个目的地的共同之处是它们展现了充满活力的城市生活。故选C。 B One sunny Monday, I decided to go for a walk. There is a beautiful dirt track (土路) near my house that runs along a river for about 2km. On my finger was a very special ring: I’d only just picked it up from the jeweller’s the day before because I’d had it designed to hold a diamond (钻石) given to me by my grandmother for my 21st birthday. I looked down at my ring as I began my walk, feeling as sunny as the day. Imagine my sadness when I looked again at the end of the track and saw a gaping hole in the ring where the diamond should have been. It was missing. Panicked, I started back along the path, looking frantically for the stone. In my heart, I knew how hopeless my search was. The track was long, stony (多石的) and covered with leaves and debris (碎片). As I scanned the ground, crying and extremely worried, I met an older gentleman out for a walk. “What’s the matter, love?” he asked kindly. “Lost something?” I explained about the missing diamond and showed him the hole in my ring. He showed his pity for it. “That’s hard to find. Tell you what, love, I walk along this track every day, I’ll keep my eyes open for it.” I thanked him, expecting nothing, but told him my husband often walks our dogs along the path if he ever found something. A few days later, my husband met the older man on the path. “Guess what?” he said. “I found your diamond!” Unbelievably, he’d found the tiny stone and was delighted to hand the diamond back to my husband, saying casually, “Luckily I found it—I have poor eyesight.” When my husband offered him money for his trouble, he refused it. He could have easily kept the diamond, or sold it, as it’s worth several thousand dollars, but, thanks to this man, I’ll spend the rest of my days trying to do something equally significant for another person. And if I’m ever worried about the state of the human race, all I have to do is look at my ring and remind myself that there are still kind and generous souls out there. 19. What does the underlined word “frantically” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Anxiously. B. Happily. C. Excitedly. D. Curiously. 20. Who found the diamond finally? A. The owner herself. B. Her husband. C. The old man with poor eyesight. D. The jeweller. 21. What can best describe the old man? A. Rich and honest. B. Kind and generous. C. Careful and brave. D. Patient and modest. 22. What section of a magazine does this text probably come from? A. Life Well Lived. B. The Holiday Season. C. Important Facts. D. The Power of Good. 【答案】19. A 20. C 21. B 22. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者在一次散步时不慎丢失了祖母送的钻戒，一位视力不好的善良老人在散步时偶然捡到并归还，这让作者深受感动，坚信世间依然有善良和慷慨的人。 【19题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Panicked, I started back along the path, looking … for the stone. In my heart, I knew how hopeless my search was.(我惊慌失措地沿着小路往回走，……寻找那颗钻石。在我心里，我知道我的寻找是多么的没有希望。)”可知，作者当时处于惊慌失措的状态，要寻找那颗钻石，可推理出划线词应表示“疯狂地、焦急地”，与Anxiously意思相近。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段中的“Unbelievably, he’d found the tiny stone and was delighted to hand the diamond back to my husband, saying casually, “Luckily I found it — I have poor eyesight.”(令人难以置信的是，他找到了那颗极小的钻石，并高兴地把它交还给我丈夫，随口说道：“幸运的是我找到了它——我视力不好。”)”可知，最终是一位视力不好的老人找到了这颗钻石。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“When my husband offered him money for his trouble, he refused it. He could have easily kept the diamond, or sold it, as it’s worth several thousand dollars, but, thanks to this man, I’ll spend the rest of my days trying to do something equally significant for another person. And if I’m ever worried about the state of the human race, all I have to do is look at my ring and remind myself that there are still kind and generous souls out there.(当我的丈夫要给他一笔钱以表酬谢时，他却婉拒了。这颗钻石价值数千美元，他本可以轻易将其据为己有，或是卖掉它，但多亏了这位好心人，我将用余生努力为他人做一些同样有意义的事情。而且，倘若我日后对人类的情况感到忧心，我只需看看手上的戒指，便能提醒自己：世间仍有善良慷慨的人存在。)”可知，这位老人拾金不昧，不求回报，可推理出这位老人是善良和慷慨的。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“And if I’m ever worried about the state of the human race, all I have to do is look at my ring and remind myself that there are still kind and generous souls out there.(而且，倘若我日后对人类的情况感到忧心，我只需看看手上的戒指，便能提醒自己：世间仍有善良慷慨的人存在。)”可知，这篇文章的主旨在于传递人性的善良与美好，可推理出这篇文章最有可能出自杂志的“The Power of Good(善良的力量)”版块。 C Jessica Matthews is an inventor who uses technology to do social good (好事). Born in the United States to Nigerian parents, Jessica grew up experiencing two different cultures. This unique background inspired her to think about global challenges in new ways. At just 19 years old, while studying mechanical engineering in college, Jessica and her classmates brainstormed a groundbreaking idea: a soccer ball that could produce electricity. The idea for this invention came during a family trip to the countryside of Nigeria, where she saw firsthand how families struggled without regular electricity. The Soccket Ball (发电足球), a name combining “soccer” and “socket”, looks like any other soccer ball, but it has a special feature. As you play with it, the ball captures the energy from being kicked and rolled. After a game, this energy can power small devices like LED lights. For many families without regular electricity, this invention can make a big difference. Despite gaining strong support from global organizations and media attention, the product faced unexpected difficulties after its launch. Many disappointed users reported that the balls broke or stopped working within a few months, failing to live up to the promised three years of useful life. The problems led to criticism from users and negative headlines, putting pressure on Uncharted Play, the company Jessica founded. The team openly admitted that they hadn’t expected the equipment to be so damaged by rough play in the country and promised to revise the design with stronger materials and improved internal parts. Despite these setbacks, Jessica and her team at Uncharted Play continued to work on energy solutions. Their latest invention, a portable jump rope (便携式跳绳) that generates electricity, builds on the Soccket’s success with a more durable, lightweight design. Designed for both children and adults, the jump rope can power small devices like phones or flashlights, expanding the reach of their mission. Jessica’s key goal remains unchanged: to provide clean renewable energy to people around the world, where electricity shortage limits education, health, and economic opportunities. Her journey proves that even simple, fun activities — like playing soccer or jumping rope — can be transformed into powerful tools to address pressing global affairs. 23. What inspired Jessica to think about global challenges in new ways? A. Her trip to America with her family. B. Her mechanical engineering studies. C. Her unique cross-cultural background. D. The energy shortage problem she noticed. 24. Why did the Soccket Ball disappoint users? A. It performed with high costs. B. It didn’t last as long as three years. C. It can only power small devices. D. It was uncomfortable to play with. 25. What is Jessica’s key goal? A. To encourage people to exercise more regularly. B. To discover more possible tools for spreading culture. C. To offer renewable energy to human beings globally. D. To achieve worldwide market success for her inventions. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Jessica? A. Creative and polite. B. Honest and selfless. C. Outgoing and careful. D. Ambitious and responsible. 【答案】23. C 24. B 25. C 26. D 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述发明家杰西卡依托多元文化背景，发明发电足球与跳绳，历经产品挫折仍坚持研发，致力于为全球提供清洁能源的励志故事。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Born in the United States to Nigerian parents, Jessica grew up experiencing two different cultures. This unique background inspired her to think about global challenges in new ways.(杰西卡出生在美国，父母是尼日利亚人，成长过程中体验了两种不同的文化。这一独特的背景启发她以全新的方式思考全球性难题。)”可知，独特的跨文化成长背景促使杰西卡创新思考全球问题。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Many disappointed users reported that the balls broke or stopped working within a few months, failing to live up to the promised three years of useful life.(许多失望的用户反馈，这些足球在几个月内就损坏或无法使用，达不到其承诺的三年使用寿命。)”可知，这款发电足球使用寿命远短于承诺年限，因此让用户感到失望。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Jessica’s key goal remains unchanged: to provide clean renewable energy to people around the world, where electricity shortage limits education, health, and economic opportunities.(杰西卡的核心目标始终未变：为世界各地因电力短缺而受限教育、医疗和经济机遇的人们提供清洁的可再生能源。)”可知，杰西卡的核心目标是为全球人类提供清洁可再生能源。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第三段中的“The team openly admitted that they hadn’t expected the equipment to be so damaged by rough play in the country and promised to revise the design with stronger materials and improved internal parts.(团队公开承认未预料到设备会在粗野使用中受损，并承诺采用更坚固材料、优化内部结构改良设计。)”以及第四段中的“Her journey proves that even simple, fun activities — like playing soccer or jumping rope — can be transformed into powerful tools to address pressing global affairs.( 她的经历证明，即便是简单、有趣的活动——比如踢足球或者跳绳，也能够转化为强有力的工具，去解决紧迫的全球问题。)”可知，杰西卡敢于创新研发利民产品、勇于正视产品缺陷积极整改，心怀全球能源问题、坚守初心造福他人，富有志向与责任感。 D Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves, is already known to put pressure on us in many ways — threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health. Now, new research points to a possibly lifelong setback (障碍) for children who are suffering from extreme heat. In the first few years of life, children develop key physical, cognitive (认知的) and social skills that can shape (塑造) the rest of their lives. Meeting these basic developmental milestones (里程碑) at the early time — including recognizing letters (字母) or words and playing independently — can influence later life achievements, from mental health to economic success. “Delays in developing these skills set kids down a developmental path that can affect not just personal well-being, but society as a whole,” says Cuarta, a researcher at New York University. To see if there are connections between extreme heat and the development of these skills, Cuarta and his team studied data from 19,600 children surveyed by UNICEF in six countries. The team used the Early Childhood Development Index, which follows milestones in four areas: reading and number-related skills (cognitive skills), social-emotional development (social skills) , ways of learning (learning skills) and physical development (physical skills). The Index tested children’s ability to name letters, read simple words and recognize the numbers 1 through 10, among other skills. In Cuarta’s study, researchers found that compared to children living in areas with cooler conditions, children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills. Learning loss may happen because heat’s effects on the brain can produce slower reaction times and an inability to focus. Heat can mess with (扰乱) children’s sleep, leading to cognitive disorder and learning difficulties in early childhood. With temperature rising globally, these delays could continue through school years and beyond, widening gaps in education and opportunity. “There is an urgent need to find out the exact ways in which heat is affecting development,” suggests Cuarta. “Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects will allow us to develop adaptation strategies (适应策略) to help them in the future.” 27. How does the author present the pressure caused by climate change? A. By quoting an expert. B. By raising a suggestion. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The influence of painful childhood. B. The importance of early development. C. The science behind the heat’s damage. D. The explanation of cognitive skills. 29. What can be inferred from Cuarta’s study? A. Heat stress can promote kids’ sleep quality. B. Heat’s effects were greater on mental health. C. Temperature can determine kids’ personality. D. Extreme heat may harm reading and number-related skills. 30. What is Cuarta’s suggestion about? A. Increase more control groups. B. Need to include more volunteers. C. Possible direction of future studies. D. Wide promotion of the findings. 【答案】27. C 28. B 29. D 30. C 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍极端高温的危害，阐述高温会阻碍儿童早期能力发展、造成学习缺陷，并提出需深入研究以制定适配对策。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves, is already known to put pressure on us in many ways — threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health.(气候变化，包括极端高温与频发热浪，现已公认会从多方面给我们带来压力——破坏生态系统、降低粮食产量，并损害公共健康。)” 可知，作者通过列举具体危害的方式，介绍气候变化带来的各类压力。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。通读第二段，尤其根据“In the first few years of life, children develop key physical, cognitive (认知的) and social skills that can shape (塑造) the rest of their lives.(在生命最初几年里，儿童会发展出能够塑造其一生的关键身体、认知与社交能力。)”可知，本段主要讲述儿童早期发展各项能力的重要意义，影响终身发展与社会整体发展。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In Cuarta’s study, researchers found that compared to children living in areas with cooler conditions, children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills. (在Cuarta的研究中，研究人员发现，与生活在气候凉爽地区的儿童相比，长期处于30摄氏度以上高温环境的儿童更难达到基础成长发展关键指标，在阅读和数字相关能力方面尤为明显。)”可知，极端高温会损害儿童的读写与数字相关技能，阻碍其成长发展。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据尾段““There is an urgent need to find out the exact ways in which heat is affecting development,” suggests Cuarta. “Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects will allow us to develop adaptation strategies (适应策略) to help them in the future.”(“我们迫切需要弄清楚高温影响发育的确切途径，”Cuarta表示。“更清楚哪些人群会受到影响以及高温如何产生影响，将有助于我们制定适应策略，在未来为他们提供帮助。”)”可知，Cuarta指出要探明高温影响儿童发育的具体方式与对象，为后续研究和应对策略指明了未来研究方向。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分共12.5分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后的选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Forgiveness (宽恕) is often considered as an important decision to let go of feelings of anger towards someone who you believe has wronged you.

Patagonia While it’s winter up north, Patagonia is in full summer mode. Long days, mild weather, and open hiking trails make this the best season to see native wildlife in Torres del Paine National Park. Pumas can be easily found and sightings of red foxes are also pretty common. Whether you’re hiking among forests or watching wildlife, Patagonia is impressive in the winter months. Antarctica For tourists, Antarctica is only accessible from November to March. Reaching Antarctica is a Bucket List item for many travelers. Travel to the white continent is more than a simple journey. It is an expedition travel, a dividing line that separates the traveling public into tourists and adventurers. An expedition ship to Antarctica is the closest you’ll probably ever come to visiting another planet. Bangkok Bangkok is extremely hot most of the year, but in winter it becomes pleasantly warm and far less unbearable. From street food stands to buzzing night markets, this energetic city is best explored when the heat and wetness are manageable. It’s also the perfect jumping-off point for Thailand’s islands. Sydney If you’re traveling in winter, nothing beats the festive magic of Australia markets. As a fast-paced, modern city, Sydney comes alive with festivals, which bring locals and visitors together. It kicks off the season with bright colors and festive energy and there is always something to keep you excited. 16. Which destination is characterized by wild animals? A. Patagonia. B. Antarctica. C. Bangkok. D. Sydney. 17. Who would most probably be drawn to Antarctica? A. Culture lovers. B. Space engineers. C. Job-hunters. D. Nature explorers. 18. What do the last two destinations have in common? A. They are perfect for island adventures. B. They are pleasant to travel year-round. C. They present energetic city life. D. They hold festivals day and night. B One sunny Monday, I decided to go for a walk. There is a beautiful dirt track (土路) near my house that runs along a river for about 2km. On my finger was a very special ring: I’d only just picked it up from the jeweller’s the day before because I’d had it designed to hold a diamond (钻石) given to me by my grandmother for my 21st birthday. I looked down at my ring as I began my walk, feeling as sunny as the day. Imagine my sadness when I looked again at the end of the track and saw a gaping hole in the ring where the diamond should have been. It was missing. Panicked, I started back along the path, looking frantically for the stone. In my heart, I knew how hopeless my search was. The track was long, stony (多石的) and covered with leaves and debris (碎片). As I scanned the ground, crying and extremely worried, I met an older gentleman out for a walk. “What’s the matter, love?” he asked kindly. “Lost something?” I explained about the missing diamond and showed him the hole in my ring. He showed his pity for it. “That’s hard to find. Tell you what, love, I walk along this track every day, I’ll keep my eyes open for it.” I thanked him, expecting nothing, but told him my husband often walks our dogs along the path if he ever found something. A few days later, my husband met the older man on the path. “Guess what?” he said. “I found your diamond!” Unbelievably, he’d found the tiny stone and was delighted to hand the diamond back to my husband, saying casually, “Luckily I found it—I have poor eyesight.” When my husband offered him money for his trouble, he refused it. He could have easily kept the diamond, or sold it, as it’s worth several thousand dollars, but, thanks to this man, I’ll spend the rest of my days trying to do something equally significant for another person. And if I’m ever worried about the state of the human race, all I have to do is look at my ring and remind myself that there are still kind and generous souls out there. 19. What does the underlined word “frantically” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Anxiously. B. Happily. C. Excitedly. D. Curiously. 20. Who found the diamond finally? A. The owner herself. B. Her husband. C. The old man with poor eyesight. D. The jeweller. 21. What can best describe the old man? A. Rich and honest. B. Kind and generous. C. Careful and brave. D. Patient and modest. 22. What section of a magazine does this text probably come from? A. Life Well Lived. B. The Holiday Season. C. Important Facts. D. The Power of Good. C Jessica Matthews is an inventor who uses technology to do social good (好事). Born in the United States to Nigerian parents, Jessica grew up experiencing two different cultures. This unique background inspired her to think about global challenges in new ways. At just 19 years old, while studying mechanical engineering in college, Jessica and her classmates brainstormed a groundbreaking idea: a soccer ball that could produce electricity. The idea for this invention came during a family trip to the countryside of Nigeria, where she saw firsthand how families struggled without regular electricity. The Soccket Ball (发电足球), a name combining “soccer” and “socket”, looks like any other soccer ball, but it has a special feature. As you play with it, the ball captures the energy from being kicked and rolled. After a game, this energy can power small devices like LED lights. For many families without regular electricity, this invention can make a big difference. Despite gaining strong support from global organizations and media attention, the product faced unexpected difficulties after its launch. Many disappointed users reported that the balls broke or stopped working within a few months, failing to live up to the promised three years of useful life. The problems led to criticism from users and negative headlines, putting pressure on Uncharted Play, the company Jessica founded. The team openly admitted that they hadn’t expected the equipment to be so damaged by rough play in the country and promised to revise the design with stronger materials and improved internal parts. Despite these setbacks, Jessica and her team at Uncharted Play continued to work on energy solutions. Their latest invention, a portable jump rope (便携式跳绳) that generates electricity, builds on the Soccket’s success with a more durable, lightweight design. Designed for both children and adults, the jump rope can power small devices like phones or flashlights, expanding the reach of their mission. Jessica’s key goal remains unchanged: to provide clean renewable energy to people around the world, where electricity shortage limits education, health, and economic opportunities. Her journey proves that even simple, fun activities — like playing soccer or jumping rope — can be transformed into powerful tools to address pressing global affairs. 23. What inspired Jessica to think about global challenges in new ways? A. Her trip to America with her family. B. Her mechanical engineering studies. C. Her unique cross-cultural background. D. The energy shortage problem she noticed. 24. Why did the Soccket Ball disappoint users? A. It performed with high costs. B. It didn’t last as long as three years. C. It can only power small devices. D. It was uncomfortable to play with. 25. What is Jessica’s key goal? A. To encourage people to exercise more regularly. B. To discover more possible tools for spreading culture. C. To offer renewable energy to human beings globally. D. To achieve worldwide market success for her inventions. 26. Which of the following words can best describe Jessica? A. Creative and polite. B. Honest and selfless. C. Outgoing and careful. D. Ambitious and responsible. D Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves, is already known to put pressure on us in many ways — threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health. Now, new research points to a possibly lifelong setback (障碍) for children who are suffering from extreme heat. In the first few years of life, children develop key physical, cognitive (认知的) and social skills that can shape (塑造) the rest of their lives. Meeting these basic developmental milestones (里程碑) at the early time — including recognizing letters (字母) or words and playing independently — can influence later life achievements, from mental health to economic success. “Delays in developing these skills set kids down a developmental path that can affect not just personal well-being, but society as a whole,” says Cuarta, a researcher at New York University. To see if there are connections between extreme heat and the development of these skills, Cuarta and his team studied data from 19,600 children surveyed by UNICEF in six countries. The team used the Early Childhood Development Index, which follows milestones in four areas: reading and number-related skills (cognitive skills), social-emotional development (social skills) , ways of learning (learning skills) and physical development (physical skills). The Index tested children’s ability to name letters, read simple words and recognize the numbers 1 through 10, among other skills. In Cuarta’s study, researchers found that compared to children living in areas with cooler conditions, children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills. Learning loss may happen because heat’s effects on the brain can produce slower reaction times and an inability to focus. Heat can mess with (扰乱) children’s sleep, leading to cognitive disorder and learning difficulties in early childhood. With temperature rising globally, these delays could continue through school years and beyond, widening gaps in education and opportunity. “There is an urgent need to find out the exact ways in which heat is affecting development,” suggests Cuarta. “Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects will allow us to develop adaptation strategies (适应策略) to help them in the future.” 27. How does the author present the pressure caused by climate change? A. By quoting an expert. B. By raising a suggestion. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 28. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The influence of painful childhood. B. The importance of early development. C. The science behind the heat’s damage. D. The explanation of cognitive skills. 29. What can be inferred from Cuarta’s study? A. Heat stress can promote kids’ sleep quality. B. Heat’s effects were greater on mental health. C. Temperature can determine kids’ personality. D. Extreme heat may harm reading and number-related skills. 30. What is Cuarta’s suggestion about? A. Increase more control groups. B. Need to include more volunteers. C. Possible direction of future studies. D. Wide promotion of the findings. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分共12.5分） 阅读下列短文，从短文后的选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Forgiveness (宽恕) is often considered as an important decision to let go of feelings of anger towards someone who you believe has wronged you.
