[(2025·全国二卷·高考真题)]
When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn't have high hopes for it. But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200 orders in June of 2020 alone. In the past year, Detrinidad sent out more than 70,000 plants. Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an explosion in the houseplant industry.
"Plants are in fashion right now," says Dr. Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the University of Florida. "People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher life satisfaction rating," she says. "Adding more nature to our environment can change our mood and how we think." Plants can improve our state of mind in a few ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol, the stress hormone in our body.
"Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without plants," says Knuth. "This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces."
If you're among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health benefits of surrounding yourself with plants, don't beat yourself up if one (or a few!) doesn't make it. "Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one," Detrinidad says.
28. How was Detrinidad's business when it started?
A. It faced tough competition.
B. It suffered a great loss.
C. It got lots of financial support.
D. It went surprisingly well.
29. What is one of Knuth's findings about plants?
A. They appeal more to students.
B. They purify the environment.
C. They raise the cortisol level.
D. They enhance productivity.
30. What does Detrinidad try to explain by mentioning doctors and lawyers?
A. The necessity of social skills.
B. The meaning of sustainability.
C. The importance of repeated efforts.
D. The value of professional opinions.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Time to Replace Houseplants
B. Plants Boost Your Mood
C. Tips on Choosing Houseplants
D. Plants Brighten Your Home

板块六:语篇翻译(英译汉,黑体词为关键)
Passage A
Houseplants have become increasingly popular in recent years. Many people find that taking care of plants provides them with a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment. The presence of plants in the home or workplace can improve people's mood and reduce their stress levels. According to research, students who study in plant-rich environments tend to perform better academically. Furthermore, employees working in offices with plants take fewer sick leaves and report higher job satisfaction. These findings suggest that we should embrace the benefits of nature in our daily lives.
Passage B
Cortisol is a hormone that is released in response to stress. When we are under pressure, our cortisol levels rise, which can have negative effects on our health. However, studies have shown that spending time in nature or around plants can decrease cortisol levels and promote a sense of calm. This explains why many people feel relaxed after spending time in a garden or park. The benefits of nature on mental health are significant, and experts recommend incorporating plants into our living and working spaces.
Passage C
The success of Detrinidad's online houseplant business reflects a broader trend: more and more people are turning to plants for companionship and well-being. During the pandemic, when many people were confined to their homes, the demand for houseplants increased dramatically. Plants not only add beauty to our surroundings but also help purify the air and reduce noise levels. However, caring for plants requires patience and effort. Detrinidad emphasizes that we should not be discouraged by failure; even experienced plant owners lose plants occasionally. What matters is the willingness to learn and try again.
板块七:参考译文(Passage 6 全文翻译)
当索尼娅·德特里尼达开设她的线上室内植物商店时,她并没有抱太大期望。但相反的情况发生了:订单蜂拥而至,仅2020年6月就发出了1,200份订单。在过去的一年里,德特里尼达寄出了超过70,000株植物。她的成功只是居家时间增加导致室内植物行业激增的一个例子。
“目前植物很时尚,”佛罗里达大学的研究员梅琳达·克努斯博士说。“生活在植物丰富的环境中的人报告了更高的生活满意度评分,”她说。“在环境中增加更多自然元素可以改变我们的情绪和思维方式。”植物可以通过多种方式改善我们的心理状态,但最重要的是通过降低我们体内的皮质醇水平——一种压力激素。
“周围有植物的学生在学业上的表现优于在没有植物的教室里的学生,”克努斯说。“这种生产力也会转化到成年人的工作场所。我们的研究表明,在植物丰富的工作场所中,人们的病假减少了30%。”
如果你属于那些享受被植物环绕所带来的身心健康益处的人群中的一员,那么如果一株(或几株)植物没能成活,也不要自责。“医生行医,律师执业,你也应该允许自己通过练习来学会养活一株植物。照料植物是一种耐心的练习和学习过程。要投入其中,但如果它死了,再去买一株新的,”德特里尼达说。

板块一 真题再现答案
28.D 29.D 30.C 31. B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,通过线上绿植店主Sonja Detrinidad的成功案例和佛罗里达大学研究者Melinda Knuth博士的观点,说明了室内绿植的流行趋势及其对身心健康、工作效率的多重益处,以及人们应对养护绿植所持的积极态度。
【详解】
28.D推理判断题
根据第一段可知,一开始Detrinidad对她的线上绿植生意并不抱太大期望,但结果却出人意料,从flood, ship out, send out和success以及第二句和第三句中的订单数量,都说明她的生意出乎意料地好。
29.D 推理判断题 第二段中研究人员Dr. Melinda Knuth认为绿植可以提高满足感、改善情绪等;第三段具体举例说明,在有绿植的环境中学习或工作效率都会更高,这一切都说明绿植能提高效率。
30.C推理判断题
根据最后一段Detrinidad所说的话可知,她认为养护绿植需要耐心和学习,需要投入其中,失败了就再来一次。就好比律师和医生并非天生精通技能,而是通过不断练习提升专业能力的,所以养护绿植也需要反复尝试、不懈努力。
