However, not everything AI does is in our best interest. AI password cracking has also increased because AI can hack (破解) passwords in seconds. A recent report led by Rahul Mahna’s team from the University of East London found that an AI password cracker called PassGAN could crack any seven- digit password in less than six minutes — even if the passwords contained symbols, numbers, and capital and lowercase letters. Additionally, the AI cracked 51% of these usual types of passwords within a minute, 65% within an hour, 71% within a day and 81% within a month. After seeing these worrying results, you’ll undoubtedly take online security more seriously. How can you protect your passwords from these hackers? Mahna suggests the following methods to help you protect yourself against hackers. Unique passwords everywhere Mahna emphasizes having different passwords for each website, device or service. Don’t worry about remembering all these passwords, since password managers can not only store your passwords but can also generate unique combinations for you. Long passwords Using long passwords that include numbers, capital and lowercase letters and symbols — and are not easily understood or inferred — will enhance the protection element. Personal privacy Posting too much information online — like on Facebook or Instagram — about your life is not a good idea if you’re concerned about security. It can provide information about your location, valuables and family. If you assume you’ve been hacked, don’t scan for viruses or change passwords until you have disconnected from the Internet. The best way to handle an attack is to prepare in advance, like changing your passwords frequently. 1．What do we know about the AI password cracker PassGAN? A．It secures large data files. B．It attacks passwords quickly. C．It protects online accounts. D．It generates unique passwords. 2．How can we protect our passwords from being attacked? A．Remember all of our passwords. B．Limit personal information online. C．Create passwords related to family. D．Use a password for most websites. 3．What should you do first if you are attacked by a hacker? A．Scan the device for viruses. B．Change the passwords rapidly. C．Reset the password manager. D．Cut off the Internet connection. 2.（2026·河北唐山市高三第一次模拟） Most passwords are still weak. A study by Specops found that 98.5% of real-world passwords are objectively weak. Only 1.5% of passwords made it into the “strong” zone, defined as being at least 15 characters long and using two or more character types. Only 3.3% of passwords were longer than 15 characters. This means that most passwords can be cracked quickly using inexpensive powerful computer tools. The most common passwords were eight characters long with just two character types, such as “Summer22” or “Office99”. About 8% of all passwords fell into this dangerously basic zone. Close behind were eight-character passwords with only one character type, most often letters alone, and in many cases lowercase letters only. These accounted for another 7.6% of all passwords. When password length is held constant, security depends largely on the variety of characters used. The table below illustrates this effect. Character set Size of set Total combinations How long to crack? 15 characters password of lowercase only (a-z) 26 2615~1. 68×1021 Easily cracked with powerful tools in days or weeks 15 characters password of lowercase + uppercase (a-z, A-Z) 52 5215~2. 53×1025 Much harder to crack, but still possible over time 15 characters password of alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) 62 6215~7. 70×1026 Very strong passwords for most practical use cases 15 characters password of all printable characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9, symbols) 94 9415~2. 25×1029 Nearly impossible to crack In addition to character variety, password length also plays an important role in security. Using passwords of 16 to 20 characters with at least two different character types-letters, numbers, or symbols-pushes the number of possible combinations into the trillions. Even high- end cracking farms would take years or centuries to break them. In reality, however, weak passwords are still very common. As Darren James, Senior Product Manager at Specops, notes, “Many users are still low-hanging fruit for online thieves, who can crack their passwords in seconds.” 21．What percentage of passwords are the most common type? A．1.5%. B．3.3%. C．7.6%. D．8%. 22．What is the main factor the table compares? A．The size of set. B．Use of letters. C．The cracking method. D．Password length. 23．Why does the author quote Darren James? A．To introduce his company. B．To warn the online thieves. C．To stress the worrying reality. D．To criticize users for poor choices. 3.（2026·湖南岳阳摸底） National Student Poets Program The National Student Poets Program, the nation’s highest honor for young poets creating original work, is supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the Poetry Foundation, and the Academy of American Poets.

Travelers hoping to experience Tristan need to plan in advance, as permission from the Administrator and Island Council is required to visit. Ittoqqortoormiut, Greenland The small settlement of Ittoqqortoormiut, Greenland, is set between Northeast Greenland National Park and Scoresby Sund, the world’s largest national park. Its 450 residents live in brightly painted wooden houses that sit on permafrost, locked in nine months of sea ice and total darkness each winter. The village can be accessed only by helicopter or boat. There are varieties of wildlife in this region, including polar bears, narwhals, and walruses.

Holly Smith tells the stories behind some of the UK’s most revolutionary homes — buildings that have deeply shaped modern Britain, mixing novelty, success and painful debate. Kensal House (1936, west London) Co-designed by Maxwell Fry and Elizabeth Denby, it was intended for working-class families between the two World Wars, when modernist homes for the rich were already popular. It offered bright, spacious flats with private balconies, labour-saving kitchens and public gardens. Managed by residents with strict rules, it was a pioneering model that inspired thousands of estates later — completely distinct from the dark, crowded and poor areas people had to live in before. Ronan Point (1968, east London) This poorly built tower collapsed just two months after opening: a small gas leak on the 18th floor destroyed a whole wing, killing 5 people and hurting 17. Its concrete panels were piled up without a strong internal frame, and its joints were even filled with old cement (水泥) bags and wrinkled newspapers. The public shock exposed widespread structural faults in high-rises, though hundreds of such blocks still lack proper strengthening today. Trellick Tower (1972, west London) In sharp contrast, this high-rise is a masterpiece by Hungarian architect Ernö Goldfinger. It used top materials like marble lobbies and stained glass, as the designer believed high-rises could “free the ground for gardens” and set high standards for public housing — turning homes from just simple shelters into spaces where people could express their lives fully. Cascades (1988, east London) This flashy postmodern tower dominates the Thames, mixing ocean liner elegance and old storehouse solidity while taking inspiration from local marine history. Nicknamed “Yuppie Towers,” it was the first private luxury high-rise here, with a pool and a gym. It created a clear contradiction: social housing high-rises are seen as signs of poverty, while new luxury ones stand for success. 1．What can we learn about Ronan Point from the text? A．Its structural faults led to a tragic accident. B．Its construction featured sustainable materials. C．Its design targeted luxury housing for the rich. D．Its failure helped completely address similar faults. 2．What do Kensal House and Trellick Tower have in common? A．They served as ideal examples. B．They provided private gardens. C．They were built with top materials. D．They were under strict management. 3．How does Cascades reflect the evolution of British high-rises? A．Postmodern designs replaced modernist ones. B．Luxury facilities became standard for high-rises. C．They shifted from public housing to private luxury. D．Postmodernism became the mainstream design style. 5.考查文章出处 1.（2026·广东广州市天河区二模） Deciding on a college major is a significant step after high school.

Among them, olfaction diagnosis, diagnosis by smell, known as “Wen Zhen”, plays a vital role. It involves assessing a patient’s health by noticing smells from their breath or body. However, this method has long depended heavily on the doctor’s personal experience, which can lead to inconsistent results and makes it difficult to measure precisely. Modern Tech’s Transformation Modern technology is now transforming this long-standing challenge. Scientists have found that human breath contains a variety of minute chemical substances known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs, when captured and analyzed by modern detecting devices, form a unique digital “breathprint” for each individual — a specific profile of VOCs. This profile can reflect the body’s health conditions, which corresponds with the core principles of TCM olfaction diagnosis. By analyzing the breathprint, the subjective art of traditional olfactory diagnosis can be converted into objective and measurable data, laying a solid foundation for its scientific standardization. Future prospects With the help of VOC detection methods and artificial intelligence (AI), TCM smell diagnosis is becoming more scientific. AI can analyze complex VOC data to recognize TCM patterns and even point out possible problems in certain body systems with much greater consistency. Although challenges remain, such as setting standards for breath sample collection and clearly defining TCM patterns, integrating ancient TCM wisdom with modern science keeps the value of traditional TCM while giving it a new scientific foundation. This combination is expected to make TCM diagnosis more standard and open up new opportunities for healthcare development around the world. 1．Why is VOCs analysis adopted in TCM Olfaction Diagnosis? A．To focus on serious diseases. B．To make diagnosis more objective. C．To apply artificial intelligence. D．To replace traditional methods. 2．In which step is the “breathprint” formed? A．Sample Collection. B．VOCs Detection. C．Data Processing. D．Results Analysis. 3．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A TCM guidebook. B．A medical exam paper. C．A patient care brochure. D．A medical technology journal. 4.（2026·广东深圳某校第二次调研） The Magpies’ Magic Forest 4 Sep – 12 Nov 2026  10 am – 5 pm There is old magic in the trees, and the magpies know where to find it.

Passage 3 【新情境·新能源】（2026·江苏苏州市七校联考模拟） The Future of Clean Energy in Homes Heating, cooling, and powering homes contribute significantly to global CO₂ emissions. As nations strive to reduce their carbon footprints, residential energy use — responsible for nearly 20% of energy-related emissions — poses unique challenges. Below is the 2022 breakdown of household emissions by source. ELECTRICITY  52% HEATING  28% COOLING  12% APPLIANCES  6% LIGHTING  2% Clean energy solutions for homes must be affordable, efficient, and adaptable to diverse climates. While technologies vary, here are key innovations driving the shift toward sustainability. HEAT PUMPS — Efficient Heating/Cooling Replacing gas boilers, electric heat pumps transfer warmth from air or ground, cutting heating emissions by 50%. Hybrid models, hopefully, might be able to work in sub-zero temperatures in the near future. SMART GRIDS (电网) — Dynamic Electricity Management AI-powered grids optimize energy use, storing surplus solar power during peak hours and reducing reliance on fossil-fuel backups. SOLAR PANELS — Rooftop Revolution Solar energy is the most accessible renewable source for households. Advances in photovoltaic cells have cut costs by 80% since 2010, making them viable in numerous regions. WIND TURBINES — Community Microgrids Small-scale turbines (涡轮机) in windy areas can power neighborhoods, though land use debates persist. “The scale of this transition is staggering,” says Dr. Elena Torres, a climate scientist at MIT. Residential renewables like solar and heat pumps could meet 90% of global household demand by 2050 — but only if investments triple within this decade. Recent studies show that every $1 invested in green homes today saves $5 in future climate adaptation costs. This isn’t just an environmental imperative; it’s economically inevitable. 1．Which two categories combined account for over three-quarters of total household emissions? A．Electricity and Heating. B．Heating and Cooling. C．Appliances and Lighting. D．Cooling and Appliances. 2．Which technology is highlighted as cost-effective for diverse climates? A．Heat pumps. B．Smart grids. C．Solar panels. D．Wind turbines. 3．What does Dr. Torres emphasize about the energy transition? A．The dominance of gas boilers. B．The increase in solar efficiency. C．The need for higher investment.

Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury, posing serious environmental and health risks. However, e-waste also represents a valuable “urban mine”. It holds an estimated 31 million tonnes of metals, 17 million tonnes of plastics, and 14 million tonnes of glass. One tonne of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more gold than a tonne of gold-bearing rocks. Despite this, less than 1% of rare earth elements are recycled. Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable manufacturing (制造业). Its metals, e.g. gold and copper, are reused in electronics, vehicles, and renewable energy systems. Recovered plastics find new life in durable products, while glass is processed into building materials. This circular (循环的) approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand, and transforms waste into industrial resources, supporting both the economy and the environment. The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027. While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws, collection rates still fall behind policy goals. To improve recycling, governments should strengthen EPR laws, and invest in facilities. Institutions can promote research and public awareness. Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, fix items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments. 1．What percentage do screens and cables account for in all e-waste compositions? A．12%. B．14%. C．17%. D．60%. 2．What is a key advantage of e-waste compared to natural mines? A．It contains a greater variety of rare elements. B．It provides more recoverable non-metals. C．It can be richer in precious metals. D．It works better as building materials. 3．What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste? A．Invest in formal recycling facilities. B．Launch public awareness campaigns. C．Set clear personal take-back plans. D．Choose repair over replacement. 真题·实战演练 高频考点：应用文直接信息题，间接信息题，计算题，写作目的题，文章出处题，读者对象题 1.【2021年全国乙卷】The Biggest Stadiums in the World People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world’s best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people. These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities（容量） slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match. For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites. All these stadiums are still funtiona1, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport. ·Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang D.P.R. Korea. Capacity: 150,000. Opened: May 1,1989. ·Michigan Stadium, Ann Arbor, Michigan, U. S. Capacity: 107,601. Opened: October 1, 1927. ·Beaver Stadium, State College, Pennsylvania, U. S. Capacity: 106,572.

What should you do with that time? Below are several tips to ease（使熟悉） yourself into college life. Participating in Campus Welcome Activities Most universities host welcome events before the academic year officially begins, including freshmen orientations （迎新会），campus picnics, and entertainments like concerts. Participating in such events is a great way to learn about school facilities and understand campus culture: What do students do for fiin? What are their favorite classes? What is the history of your university? It can help you observe campus life outside the classroom. Exploring Campus Getting to know where essential campus resources are—such as the student advising center, psychological services, and the tutoring center~~will make your first few weeks on campus a lot easier, because you won't have to look for them while still getting used to your classes. Take some time to check out the buildings where your classes will be held. This will prevent you from getting lost in the first few days of classes, and familiarize you with how long it takes to get from place to place. If you're worried about taking classes one after another in different buildings, a quick test run won't hurt. That way, you will avoid potential time delays in getting to your classes. Starting a Routine Before getting too excited about all of the fun things you will be able to do during the week, remember that you do have a pretty big schedule change coming up. Starting classes means being in different places at different times, so it’s a great idea to start getting used to that routine right this week. What helps you most is to schedule your sleep. Following the planned time will ensure you have enough sleep to get to those early classes and stay wide awake. If you have other daily routines, such as exercising or talking on the phone with family, work those into your day-to-day life before classes start so that you get a better idea of how they fit in with your schedule. 36. By participating in campus welcome activities, freshmen can . A. learn about campus culture B. get their course schedule C. have a physical examination D. take an entrance test 37. Why are freshmen advised to have a quick test run between buildings ? A. To see how many facilities they can use. B. To avoid being late for future classes. C. To help those getting lost on campus.

However, not everything AI does is in our best interest. AI password cracking has also increased because AI can hack (破解) passwords in seconds. A recent report led by Rahul Mahna’s team from the University of East London found that an AI password cracker called PassGAN could crack any seven- digit password in less than six minutes — even if the passwords contained symbols, numbers, and capital and lowercase letters. Additionally, the AI cracked 51% of these usual types of passwords within a minute, 65% within an hour, 71% within a day and 81% within a month. After seeing these worrying results, you’ll undoubtedly take online security more seriously. How can you protect your passwords from these hackers? Mahna suggests the following methods to help you protect yourself against hackers. Unique passwords everywhere Mahna emphasizes having different passwords for each website, device or service. Don’t worry about remembering all these passwords, since password managers can not only store your passwords but can also generate unique combinations for you. Long passwords Using long passwords that include numbers, capital and lowercase letters and symbols — and are not easily understood or inferred — will enhance the protection element. Personal privacy Posting too much information online — like on Facebook or Instagram — about your life is not a good idea if you’re concerned about security. It can provide information about your location, valuables and family. If you assume you’ve been hacked, don’t scan for viruses or change passwords until you have disconnected from the Internet. The best way to handle an attack is to prepare in advance, like changing your passwords frequently. 1．What do we know about the AI password cracker PassGAN? A．It secures large data files. B．It attacks passwords quickly. C．It protects online accounts. D．It generates unique passwords. 2．How can we protect our passwords from being attacked? A．Remember all of our passwords. B．Limit personal information online. C．Create passwords related to family. D．Use a password for most websites. 3．What should you do first if you are attacked by a hacker? A．Scan the device for viruses. B．Change the passwords rapidly. C．Reset the password manager. D．Cut off the Internet connection. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了人工智能在密码破解方面的应用及其带来的安全威胁，并提供了保护密码的方法。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中“A recent report led by Rahul Mahna’s team from the University of East London found that an AI password cracker called PassGAN could crack any seven-digit password in less than six minutes — even if the passwords contained symbols, numbers, and capital and lowercase letters. (东伦敦大学Rahul Mahna团队最近的一份报告发现，一种名为PassGAN的人工智能密码破解器可以在不到六分钟的时间内破解任何七位数的密码——即使密码包含符号、数字以及大小写字母。)”可知，PassGAN能够快速破解密码。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“Posting too much information online — like on Facebook or Instagram — about your life is not a good idea if you’re concerned about security.

A study by Specops found that 98.5% of real-world passwords are objectively weak. Only 1.5% of passwords made it into the “strong” zone, defined as being at least 15 characters long and using two or more character types. Only 3.3% of passwords were longer than 15 characters. This means that most passwords can be cracked quickly using inexpensive powerful computer tools. The most common passwords were eight characters long with just two character types, such as “Summer22” or “Office99”. About 8% of all passwords fell into this dangerously basic zone. Close behind were eight-character passwords with only one character type, most often letters alone, and in many cases lowercase letters only. These accounted for another 7.6% of all passwords. When password length is held constant, security depends largely on the variety of characters used. The table below illustrates this effect. Character set Size of set Total combinations How long to crack? 15 characters password of lowercase only (a-z) 26 2615~1. 68×1021 Easily cracked with powerful tools in days or weeks 15 characters password of lowercase + uppercase (a-z, A-Z) 52 5215~2. 53×1025 Much harder to crack, but still possible over time 15 characters password of alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) 62 6215~7. 70×1026 Very strong passwords for most practical use cases 15 characters password of all printable characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9, symbols) 94 9415~2. 25×1029 Nearly impossible to crack In addition to character variety, password length also plays an important role in security. Using passwords of 16 to 20 characters with at least two different character types-letters, numbers, or symbols-pushes the number of possible combinations into the trillions. Even high- end cracking farms would take years or centuries to break them. In reality, however, weak passwords are still very common. As Darren James, Senior Product Manager at Specops, notes, “Many users are still low-hanging fruit for online thieves, who can crack their passwords in seconds.” 21．What percentage of passwords are the most common type? A．1.5%. B．3.3%. C．7.6%. D．8%. 22．What is the main factor the table compares? A．The size of set. B．Use of letters. C．The cracking method. D．Password length. 23．Why does the author quote Darren James? A．To introduce his company. B．To warn the online thieves. C．To stress the worrying reality. D．To criticize users for poor choices. 【答案】21．D 22．A 23．C 【解析】这是一篇应用文。文字介绍一项研究，研究显示绝大多数现实密码强度很弱，仅少数符合强密码标准。密码长度与字符种类决定安全性，弱密码极易被破解，用户账号仍面临巨大风险。 21．细节理解题。根据第二段“The most common passwords were eight characters long with just two character types, such as “Summer22” or “Office99”. About 8% of all passwords fell into this dangerously basic zone.(最常见的密码长度均为8个字符，且仅包含两种字符类型，例如“Summer22”或“Office99”。约8%的所有密码都处于这种极其简单的危险区域)”可知，最常见的密码占密码总数的百分比的8%。故选D。 22．细节理解题。根据第三段“When password length is held constant, security depends largely on the variety of characters used. The table below illustrates this effect.(当密码长度保持不变时，安全性主要取决于所使用的字符种类的多样性。下面的表格说明了这一现象)”以及表格第一列：Character set，第二列：Size of set，可知，整表都是在对比：不同字符集大小→组合数多少→破解时间。故选A。 23．推理判断题。根据最后一段“In reality, however, weak passwords are still very common. As Darren James, Senior Product Manager at Specops, notes, “Many users are still low-hanging fruit for online thieves, who can crack their passwords in seconds.”(然而实际上，弱密码仍然非常常见。正如Specops公司的高级产品经理达伦·詹姆斯所指出的那样：“许多用户仍然是网络窃贼容易下手的目标，他们能在几秒钟内破解这些密码。”)”可知，作者引用达伦·詹姆斯的话以强调这一令人担忧的现实。故选C。 3.（2026·湖南岳阳摸底） National Student Poets Program The National Student Poets Program, the nation’s highest honor for young poets creating original work, is supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the Poetry Foundation, and the Academy of American Poets.

Here are some remote destinations that few people will have the chance to experience. Tristan da Cunha The island of Tristan da Cunha is set in the south Atlantic Ocean, 1,743 miles east of Cape Town, South Africa. Home to just 246 people, the island is an active volcano and its main town, Edinburgh of the Seven Seas, was nearly destroyed in 1961 following an eruption. Travelers hoping to experience Tristan need to plan in advance, as permission from the Administrator and Island Council is required to visit. Ittoqqortoormiut, Greenland The small settlement of Ittoqqortoormiut, Greenland, is set between Northeast Greenland National Park and Scoresby Sund, the world’s largest national park. Its 450 residents live in brightly painted wooden houses that sit on permafrost, locked in nine months of sea ice and total darkness each winter. The village can be accessed only by helicopter or boat. There are varieties of wildlife in this region, including polar bears, narwhals, and walruses. Longyearbyen, Norway It is located about halfway between Norway and the North Pole, and has become a destination for travelers hoping to see both the northern lights and polar bears. Longyearbyen, a town of around 2,000 people, is dotted with colorful houses dating back to its heyday（鼎盛期）as a mining town. The region is completely dark for two-and-a-half months every winter, and the sun shines 24/7 in the summer. Grise Fiord, Nunavut, Canada Located on Ellesmere Island, Grise Fiord, or Aujuittugin Inuktitut, is the northernmost settlement in Canada. The Inuit village of 141 people is located in the Arctic Cordillera mountain range, and visitors can take in the area’s various wildlife, including narwhals, seals, beluga whales, walruses, musk oxen, and polar bears. 1．What do we know about Tristan da Cunha?

Or ideal housing for the working classes? Holly Smith tells the stories behind some of the UK’s most revolutionary homes — buildings that have deeply shaped modern Britain, mixing novelty, success and painful debate. Kensal House (1936, west London) Co-designed by Maxwell Fry and Elizabeth Denby, it was intended for working-class families between the two World Wars, when modernist homes for the rich were already popular. It offered bright, spacious flats with private balconies, labour-saving kitchens and public gardens. Managed by residents with strict rules, it was a pioneering model that inspired thousands of estates later — completely distinct from the dark, crowded and poor areas people had to live in before. Ronan Point (1968, east London) This poorly built tower collapsed just two months after opening: a small gas leak on the 18th floor destroyed a whole wing, killing 5 people and hurting 17. Its concrete panels were piled up without a strong internal frame, and its joints were even filled with old cement (水泥) bags and wrinkled newspapers. The public shock exposed widespread structural faults in high-rises, though hundreds of such blocks still lack proper strengthening today. Trellick Tower (1972, west London) In sharp contrast, this high-rise is a masterpiece by Hungarian architect Ernö Goldfinger. It used top materials like marble lobbies and stained glass, as the designer believed high-rises could “free the ground for gardens” and set high standards for public housing — turning homes from just simple shelters into spaces where people could express their lives fully. Cascades (1988, east London) This flashy postmodern tower dominates the Thames, mixing ocean liner elegance and old storehouse solidity while taking inspiration from local marine history. Nicknamed “Yuppie Towers,” it was the first private luxury high-rise here, with a pool and a gym. It created a clear contradiction: social housing high-rises are seen as signs of poverty, while new luxury ones stand for success. 1．What can we learn about Ronan Point from the text? A．Its structural faults led to a tragic accident. B．Its construction featured sustainable materials. C．Its design targeted luxury housing for the rich. D．Its failure helped completely address similar faults. 2．What do Kensal House and Trellick Tower have in common? A．They served as ideal examples. B．They provided private gardens. C．They were built with top materials. D．They were under strict management. 3．How does Cascades reflect the evolution of British high-rises? A．Postmodern designs replaced modernist ones. B．Luxury facilities became standard for high-rises. C．They shifted from public housing to private luxury. D．Postmodernism became the mainstream design style. 【答案】1．A 2．A 3．C 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了英国四座具有代表性的高层建筑，讲述了它们的建造背景、设计特点、社会影响及争议，展现了高层建筑如何深刻塑造现代英国。 1．细节理解题。根据Ronan Point部分“This poorly built tower collapsed just two months after opening: a small gas leak on the 18th floor destroyed a whole wing, killing 5 people and hurting 17. Its concrete panels were piled up without a strong internal frame, and its joints were even filled with old cement (水泥) bags and wrinkled newspapers. The public shock exposed widespread structural faults in high-rises, though hundreds of such blocks still lack proper strengthening today. (这座建造质量差的塔楼在开放两个月后就倒塌了：18楼的一个小煤气泄漏摧毁了整侧楼，造成5人死亡，17人受伤。它的混凝土板在没有坚固内部框架的情况下堆叠起来，其接缝甚至用旧水泥袋和皱巴巴的报纸填充。公众的震惊暴露了高层建筑中普遍存在的结构缺陷，尽管如今仍有数百座这样的建筑缺乏适当的加固。)”可知，Ronan Point的结构缺陷导致了悲剧事故。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据Kensal House部分“Managed by residents with strict rules, it was a pioneering model that inspired thousands of estates later — completely distinct from the dark, crowded and poor areas people had to live in before. (由居民严格管理，这是一种开创性的模式，后来启发了成千上万的住宅区——与人们以前不得不居住的黑暗、拥挤和贫困地区完全不同)”和Trellick Tower部分“In sharp contrast, this high-rise is a masterpiece by Hungarian architect Ernö Goldfinger. It used top materials like marble lobbies and stained glass, as the designer believed high-rises could “free the ground for gardens” and set high standards for public housing — turning homes from just simple shelters into spaces where people could express their lives fully. (与之形成鲜明对比的是，这座高层建筑是匈牙利建筑师ErnöGoldfinger的杰作。它使用了大理石大厅和彩色玻璃等顶级材料，因为设计师认为高层建筑可以“为花园腾出空间”，并为公共住房设定高标准——将房屋从简单的庇护所变成人们可以充分表达生活的空间)”可知，肯萨尔大楼是开创性的典范，特雷利克塔是建筑杰作、为公共住房树立了高标准，二者的共同点是都成为了理想范例。故选A项。 3．细节理解题。根据Cascades部分“This flashy postmodern tower dominates the Thames, mixing ocean liner elegance and old storehouse solidity while taking inspiration from local marine history. Nicknamed “Yuppie Towers,” it was the first private luxury high-rise here, with a pool and a gym. It created a clear contradiction: social housing high-rises are seen as signs of poverty, while new luxury ones stand for success. (这座华丽的后现代塔楼矗立在泰晤士河畔，融合了远洋客轮的优雅和旧仓库的坚固，同时从当地的海洋历史中汲取灵感。它被称为“雅皮士塔”，是这里第一座私人豪华高层建筑，配有游泳池和健身房。它制造了一个明显的矛盾：社会福利性高层住宅被视为贫穷的象征，而新的豪华高层住宅则代表成功。)”可知，此前英国高层建筑多为面向工薪阶层的社会住房，而卡斯卡德大楼是首个私人豪华高层建筑，反映出英国高层建筑从公共住房向私人豪华住房的转变。故选C项。 5.考查文章出处 1.（2026·广东广州市天河区二模） Deciding on a college major is a significant step after high school.

Among them, olfaction diagnosis, diagnosis by smell, known as “Wen Zhen”, plays a vital role. It involves assessing a patient’s health by noticing smells from their breath or body. However, this method has long depended heavily on the doctor’s personal experience, which can lead to inconsistent results and makes it difficult to measure precisely. Modern Tech’s Transformation Modern technology is now transforming this long-standing challenge. Scientists have found that human breath contains a variety of minute chemical substances known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs, when captured and analyzed by modern detecting devices, form a unique digital “breathprint” for each individual — a specific profile of VOCs. This profile can reflect the body’s health conditions, which corresponds with the core principles of TCM olfaction diagnosis. By analyzing the breathprint, the subjective art of traditional olfactory diagnosis can be converted into objective and measurable data, laying a solid foundation for its scientific standardization. Future prospects With the help of VOC detection methods and artificial intelligence (AI), TCM smell diagnosis is becoming more scientific. AI can analyze complex VOC data to recognize TCM patterns and even point out possible problems in certain body systems with much greater consistency. Although challenges remain, such as setting standards for breath sample collection and clearly defining TCM patterns, integrating ancient TCM wisdom with modern science keeps the value of traditional TCM while giving it a new scientific foundation. This combination is expected to make TCM diagnosis more standard and open up new opportunities for healthcare development around the world. 1．Why is VOCs analysis adopted in TCM Olfaction Diagnosis? A．To focus on serious diseases. B．To make diagnosis more objective. C．To apply artificial intelligence. D．To replace traditional methods. 2．In which step is the “breathprint” formed? A．Sample Collection. B．VOCs Detection. C．Data Processing. D．Results Analysis. 3．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A TCM guidebook. B．A medical exam paper. C．A patient care brochure. D．A medical technology journal. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍现代科技如何革新中医闻诊并展望其前景。 1．细节理解题。根据Modern Tech’s Transformation部分中“By analyzing the breathprint, the subjective art of traditional olfactory diagnosis can be converted into objective and measurable data, laying a solid foundation for its scientific standardization. (通过分析呼吸印记，传统嗅觉诊断的主观艺术可以转化为客观可测量的数据，为其科学标准化奠定坚实基础。)”可知，在中医闻诊中采用VOCs分析是为了使诊断更加客观。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据Modern Tech’s Transformation部分中“These VOCs, when captured and analyzed by modern detecting devices, form a unique digital “breathprint” for each individual — a specific profile of VOCs. (这些VOCs被现代检测设备捕获并分析后，会为每个人形成一个独特的数字“呼吸印记”——一种特定的VOCs特征。)”可知，“呼吸印记”是在VOCs检测这一步骤中形成的。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据文章标题“TCM Olfaction Diagnosis Meets Modern Sensing Technology (中医闻诊邂逅现代传感技术)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了中医闻诊与现代传感技术的结合，包括中医闻诊的介绍、现代技术如何改变中医闻诊以及未来的前景等，属于医学科技内容，因此文章可能来自一本医学技术期刊。故选D。 4.（2026·广东深圳某校第二次调研） The Magpies’ Magic Forest 4 Sep – 12 Nov 2026  10 am – 5 pm There is old magic in the trees, and the magpies know where to find it.

As nations strive to reduce their carbon footprints, residential energy use — responsible for nearly 20% of energy-related emissions — poses unique challenges. Below is the 2022 breakdown of household emissions by source. ELECTRICITY  52% HEATING  28% COOLING  12% APPLIANCES  6% LIGHTING  2% Clean energy solutions for homes must be affordable, efficient, and adaptable to diverse climates. While technologies vary, here are key innovations driving the shift toward sustainability. HEAT PUMPS — Efficient Heating/Cooling Replacing gas boilers, electric heat pumps transfer warmth from air or ground, cutting heating emissions by 50%. Hybrid models, hopefully, might be able to work in sub-zero temperatures in the near future. SMART GRIDS (电网) — Dynamic Electricity Management AI-powered grids optimize energy use, storing surplus solar power during peak hours and reducing reliance on fossil-fuel backups. SOLAR PANELS — Rooftop Revolution Solar energy is the most accessible renewable source for households. Advances in photovoltaic cells have cut costs by 80% since 2010, making them viable in numerous regions. WIND TURBINES — Community Microgrids Small-scale turbines (涡轮机) in windy areas can power neighborhoods, though land use debates persist. “The scale of this transition is staggering,” says Dr. Elena Torres, a climate scientist at MIT. Residential renewables like solar and heat pumps could meet 90% of global household demand by 2050 — but only if investments triple within this decade. Recent studies show that every $1 invested in green homes today saves $5 in future climate adaptation costs. This isn’t just an environmental imperative; it’s economically inevitable. 1．Which two categories combined account for over three-quarters of total household emissions? A．Electricity and Heating.

Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury, posing serious environmental and health risks. However, e-waste also represents a valuable “urban mine”. It holds an estimated 31 million tonnes of metals, 17 million tonnes of plastics, and 14 million tonnes of glass. One tonne of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more gold than a tonne of gold-bearing rocks. Despite this, less than 1% of rare earth elements are recycled. Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable manufacturing (制造业). Its metals, e.g. gold and copper, are reused in electronics, vehicles, and renewable energy systems. Recovered plastics find new life in durable products, while glass is processed into building materials. This circular (循环的) approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand, and transforms waste into industrial resources, supporting both the economy and the environment. The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027. While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws, collection rates still fall behind policy goals. To improve recycling, governments should strengthen EPR laws, and invest in facilities. Institutions can promote research and public awareness. Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, fix items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments. 1．What percentage do screens and cables account for in all e-waste compositions? A．12%. B．14%. C．17%. D．60%. 2．What is a key advantage of e-waste compared to natural mines? A．It contains a greater variety of rare elements. B．It provides more recoverable non-metals. C．It can be richer in precious metals. D．It works better as building materials. 3．What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste? A．Invest in formal recycling facilities. B．Launch public awareness campaigns. C．Set clear personal take-back plans. D．Choose repair over replacement. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。介绍电子垃圾的危害、回收价值及各方提升回收效率的举措。 1．细节理解题。根据饼状图可知， screens在电子垃圾中的占比12%，cables的占比为2%，因此两者占比为14%。故选B项。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“One tonne of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more gold than a tonne of gold-bearing rocks. (一吨电路板的含金量是一吨含金矿石的800倍之多。)”可知，电子垃圾相比天然矿山，关键优势在于贵金属含量可能更高。故选C项。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, fix items rather than throw away (个人应将电子垃圾妥善送至回收点，修理物品而非丢弃)”可知，针对个人的建议是选择维修而非更换电子产品。故选D项。 真题·实战演练 高频考点：应用文直接信息题，间接信息题，计算题，写作目的题，文章出处题，读者对象题 1.【2021年全国乙卷】The Biggest Stadiums in the World People have been pouring into stadiums since the days of ancient Greece. In around 80 A.D., the Romans built the Colosseum, which remains the world’s best known stadium and continues to inform contemporary design. Rome’s Colosseum was 157 feet tall and had 80 entrances, seating 50,000 people. However, that was small fry compared with the city’s Circus Maximus, which accommodated around 250,000 people. These days, safety regulations-not to mention the modern sports fan’s desire for a good view and comfortable seat—tend to keep stadium capacities（容量） slightly lower. Even soccer fans tend to have a seat each; gone are the days of thousands standing to watch the match. For the biggest stadiums in the world, we have used data supplied by the World Atlas list so far, which ranks them by their stated permanent capacity, as well as updated information from official stadium websites. All these stadiums are still funtiona1, still open and still hosting the biggest events in world sport. ·Rungrado 1st of May Stadium, Pyongyang D.P.R. Korea. Capacity: 150,000.
