W: But why did you mention it on our walk? We were in the forest at the time. M: I saw some mushrooms growing on a fallen branch. They help recycle the dead wood, so that more trees and flowers can grow. It’s a beautiful system. W: Yes, nature is an expert recycler—and mushrooms can be as beautiful as flowers. Those little yellow ones were unusual—and do you remember the large orange ones? Best of all were the red ones. M: I could look at things like that all day. The subject really interests me. We’ll have to walk there again next Friday. W: Thursday would be better for me. M: I can’t make it then. I have booked an appointment at the dentist. What about Saturday? W: It’s a date. We’ll explore the magic of mushrooms. （本题4.5分）听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。 18．(1.5分)What field does Lin Xianfeng work in? A．Medical science. B．Mathematical physics.

In the past few years, he has devoted himself to the research of gene-targeted treatments for rare genetic diseases. It was a long and tough journey. There were countless failures and setbacks. However, Lin never gave up. He spent day and night in the laboratory, analyzing data, conducting experiments and discussing with his team. Finally, his efforts paid off. His research made great breakthroughs in finding more effective treatment methods for some rare genetic diseases. Winning the science exploration award is a great recognition of his work. It not only provides him with more funds for further research, but also encourages more young people to engage in scientific exploration. Lin Xianfeng’s story shows that with passion and hard work, young people can make great achievements in the scientific world. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Outstanding Female Physicists in Modern History Chien-Shiung Wu (1912-1997, Chinese-American) She was a top nuclear physicist. At 44, she did the “Wu Experiment” (1956), proving parity violation (宇称不守恒) — particles don’t act the same in mirror images. This helped two male scientists win the Nobel Prize. She taught at Columbia University, guided many students, and earned the Wolf Prize in Physics (1978). Marie Curie (1867-1934, Polish-French) She was the only person to win the Nobel Prizes in two sciences (Physics 1903, Chemistry 1911). Born in Poland, she worked in France. With her husband, she discovered polonium (1898, named after Poland) and radium at 31. She studied radioactivity, used it in early cancer treatment, and helped make X-ray machines for World War I hospitals. Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958, British) A 31-year-old biophysicist, she took “Photo 51” (1952) — the first clear X-ray picture of DNA．This image was key for Watson and Crick to figure out DNA’s double-helix structure. She also studied coal and viruses, but died young at 37 from illness linked to her work. Lise Meitner (1878-1968, Austrian-Swedish) She was a Jewish physicist who fled (逃离) Austria to Sweden in 1938 (age 60). With Otto Hahn, she discovered nuclear fission (核裂变) — splitting atoms to release huge energy. She named “fission” and explained how it works, though Hahn alone got the 1944 Nobel. She later taught in Sweden and became a global physics icon (偶像). 21．(2.5分)What is special about polonium? A．It won its discoverer the Wolf Prize. B．It was named after Marie Curie’s homeland. C．It helped make X-ray machines. D．It was the key to developing nuclear energy. 22．(2.5分)What part did Rosalind Franklin’s “Photo 51” play? A．It helped uncover DNA’s double-helix shape. B．It proved parity violation in nuclear physics. C．It supported the study of coal and viruses. D．It made her win a Nobel Prize directly. 23．(2.5分)What did Lise Meitner do after fleeing Austria in 1938? A．She taught at Columbia University. B．She received the Nobel Prize. C．She explained how nuclear fission works. D．She discovered nuclear fission with her husband. 【答案】21．B 22．A 23．C 【导语】主要介绍近代史上四位杰出的女性物理学家，及其科研成就、人生经历与科学贡献。 【详解】21．细节理解题。根据Marie Curie (1867-1934, Polish-French)部分中的“With her husband, she discovered polonium (1898, named after Poland) and radium at 31.(她和丈夫在31岁时发现了钋（1898年，以波兰命名）和镭。)”可知，钋的特别之处在于它是以居里夫人的祖国波兰命名的。 22．细节理解题。根据Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958, British)部分中的“This image was key for Watson and Crick to figure out DNA’s double-helix structure.(这张照片是沃森和克里克解开DNA双螺旋结构的关键。)”可知，罗莎琳德·富兰克林的“51号照片”帮助揭示了DNA的双螺旋结构。 23．细节理解题。根据Lise Meitner (1878-1968, Austrian-Swedish)部分中的“She named “fission” and explained how it works, though Hahn alone got the 1944 Nobel. (她命名了“裂变”并解释了其原理，尽管只有哈恩获得了1944年诺贝尔奖。)”可知，莉泽·迈特纳在1938年逃离奥地利后解释了核裂变的原理。 （本题10分）Chen Zhu, a Chinese hematologist (血液学家), received the 2026 Shaw Prize in Life Science and Medicine on May 27. For him, true achievements don’t come from seeking awards. His drive comes from somewhere deeper. Born in Jiangsu in 1953, he lived a tough life and began learning medicine on his own as a young man, later becoming a village doctor. His deep wish to help others pushed him to receive formal medical training. Later, he went to France for further research, where he deepened his knowledge of medical science. Chen Zhu’s greatest contribution is in the fight against acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a deadly blood cancer. In the past most APL patients died within weeks. The standard treatment often harmed healthy parts along with cancerous ones, leaving patients too weak to survive. As a result, the five-year survival rate was only between 35% and 45%. Inspired by traditional Chinese medicine, which uses a dangerous material called arsenic (砷) to treat certain diseases, Chen Zhu and his team developed a targeted treatment. They combined (结合) arsenic with a Western drug. The result was amazing: the new treatment could cure over 90% of APL patients. “Chinese and Western medicine are not enemies,” Chen says. “They can learn from each other.” Some experts doubted his idea at first, but Chen stood his ground. “It takes time and courage,” he explains. “You have to believe in what you do.” Over time, more scientists came to support him, and the treatment — now called the “Shanghai Program” — has been applied in hospitals across the world. When receiving the Shaw Prize, he said, “This honor belongs to every researcher who believes in saving lives above all else.” From Tu Youyou’s artemisinin to Chen Zhu’s APL cure, Chinese scientists have once again shown the world the power of bringing together tradition with new ideas. 24．(2.5分)What mainly drove Chen Zhu to achieve success in medicine? A．Desire to help those who suffer. B．Pressure from his early difficult life. C．Encouragement of the French research team. D．The hope of winning international recognition. 25．(2.5分)What was the problem with past APL treatment? A．It was too painful for most patients. B．Patients died too quickly after treatment. C．It had a success rate of only 35% to 45%. D．It hurt healthy parts while killing cancer. 26．(2.5分)How did Chen Zhu develop the new APL treatment? A．By integrating arsenic with a Western medicine. B．By comparing Western drugs with Chinese medicine. C．By further developing medical technology in France. D．By inventing a new drug out of traditional materials. 27．(2.5分)What does the underlined phrase “stood his ground” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Referred to experts actively. B．Stuck to his opinion firmly. C．Took in others’ idea wisely. D．Admitted his limitation bravely. 【答案】24．A 25．D 26．A 27．B 【导语】文章主要介绍了血液学家陈竺的求学经历，讲述他从中西医结合出发攻克急性早幼粒细胞白血病，研发“上海方案”并斩获2026年邵逸夫生命科学与医学奖的事迹。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第一段“His deep wish to help others pushed him to receive formal medical training. (他想要帮助他人的深切愿望，促使他接受正规的医学培训。)”可知，想要救助病患的心愿是他在医学领域取得成功的主要动力。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段“The standard treatment often harmed healthy parts along with cancerous ones, leaving patients too weak to survive. (常规治疗在杀死癌变部位的同时，常常损伤健康组织，导致患者身体过弱无法存活。)”可知，过去治疗方案的问题是治疗过程会伤害健康身体部位。 26．细节理解题。根据第三段“They combined (结合) arsenic with a Western drug. (他们将砷和一种西药相结合。)”可知，陈竺团队通过融合砷与西药研发出新疗法。 27．词句猜测题。根据第四段“Some experts doubted his idea at first, but Chen stood his ground. (起初一些专家质疑他的想法，但陈竺stood his ground。)”以及“‘You have to believe in what you do.’ (‘你必须坚信自己所做的事。’)”可知，划线短语表示坚持自身观点，与B选项“Stuck to his opinion firmly. (坚定坚持自己的观点。)”含义一致。 （本题10分）Greenhouse gas emissions would rise if all farms in England and Wales went organic. Though the emissions of each farm would go down, much more food would have to be imported, as the amount they would produce would decrease greatly. “The key message from my perspective is that you can’t really have your cake and eat it,” says Laurence Smith, now at the Royal Agricultural University in the UK, who was part of the team that ran the numbers. Smith is a supporter of organic farming and says “there are a lot of merits of the organic approach”, but his analysis shows that organic farming has downsides too. Farming and changes in land use, such as cutting down forests, are responsible for a third of all greenhouse gas emissions. That means reducing farming emissions and the land needed for farming is required to limit further global warming. Smith and his colleagues found that emissions per unit of food are, on average, 20 per cent lower for organic crops and 4 per cent lower for organic animal products. However, organic harvests per hectare (公顷) are also lower on average. For wheat and barley, for instance, harvests are just half of those of conventional farms. This means 1. 5times as much land would be needed to grow the same amount of these foods. The estimated increase in emissions varies greatly, depending on where the extra farmland comes from. If only half comes from turning grassland into farms, the increase could be as low as 20 per cent. If grassland that would otherwise have been reforested is turned into farmland, emissions could nearly double. This doesn’t necessarily mean people should stop eating organic produce, says Smith. People might choose organic food for other reasons, such as to reduce their pesticide exposure (though contrary to popular belief, organic farmers do use pesticides) or for the sake of wildlife. Going 100 per cent organic could also harm global biodiversity. The extra land used for farming would mean the land available for wildlife would be smaller and more fragmented (碎片化的) . Smith says the best option may be to use some organic and conventional farming methods at the same time. 28．(2.5分)Why may greenhouse gas emissions increase if a country goes organic? A．Organic farms take longer to build. B．The agricultural output will increase greatly. C．The emissions of each farm unit will increase. D．Greater demand for imported food will be created. 29．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “merits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Changes. B．Challenges. C．Advantages. D．Differences. 30．(2.5分)What did Smith and his colleagues find? A．Organic harvests per unit are greater than traditional harvests. B．Organic farming needs more farmland to feed a country. C．Global warming could be brought under control. D．Land was not used in a responsible way. 31．(2.5分)What is Smith’s proposal? A．Stopping using pesticides. B．Eating less organic produce. C．Going back to traditional farming. D．Adopting mixed farming methods. 【答案】28．D 29．C 30．B 31．D 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讨论了如果英格兰和威尔士的所有农场都转为有机农业，温室气体排放可能会增加的问题。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据第一段“Greenhouse gas emissions would rise if all farms in England and Wales went organic. Though the emissions of each farm would go down, much more food would have to be imported, as the amount they would produce would decrease greatly.(如果英格兰和威尔士的所有农场都采用有机农业，温室气体排放将会增加。尽管每个农场的排放量会下降，但由于它们的产量会大幅下降，因此必须进口更多的食物。)”可知，如果一个国家采用有机农业，温室气体排放可能会增加是因为将创造更大的进口食品需求。故选D。 29．词句猜测题。根据第二段“Smith is a supporter of organic farming and says “there are a lot of merits of the organic approach”, but his analysis shows that organic farming has downsides too.(史密斯是有机农业的支持者，他表示“有机种植模式有着诸多merits”，但他的分析也表明，有机农业同样存在弊端。)”可知，句中but为核心转折连接词，前后语义相反。后半句的downsides意为“弊端、缺点”，因此前半句的merits必然是其反义词，即“优势、优点”。故选C。 30．细节理解题。根据第四段“Smith and his colleagues found that emissions per unit of food are, on average, 20 per cent lower for organic crops and 4 per cent lower for organic animal products. However, organic harvests per hectare (公顷) are also lower on average. For wheat and barley, for instance, harvests are just half of those of conventional farms. This means 1. 5times as much land would be needed to grow the same amount of these foods.(史密斯和他的同事发现，有机作物每单位食物的排放量平均低20%，有机动物产品的排放量平均低4%。然而，平均每公顷有机作物的产量也较低。例如，小麦和大麦的产量仅为传统农场的一半。这意味着种植相同数量的这些食物需要1.5倍的土地。)”可知，史密斯和他的同事发现有机农业需要更多的农田来养活一个国家。故选B。 31．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Smith says the best option may be to use some organic and conventional farming methods at the same time.(史密斯说，最好的选择可能是同时使用一些有机和传统农业方法。)”可知，史密斯的建议是采用混合耕作方法。故选D。 （本题10分）Farming relies more on weather than most businesses. Harvest mostly depends on regular sunshine and rainfall. But climate change is breaking the earth’s long-predictable weather patterns. A warmer world makes problems like drought, flooding and pests worse. To deal with this, agriculture needs to adapt. One idea is indoor farming, where weather doesn’t matter. In indoor spaces, conditions like temperature and moisture (湿度) can be controlled accurately with technology. Growing crops indoors isn’t new, but climate change may push more farming indoors. So the industry has tried to expand this method over the past 20 years. However, expanding is hard. Innerfarm, a startup founded in 2013, became one of Europe’s biggest vertical-farming (垂直种植) companies, with about 1,400 farms and partnerships with major sellers. At the peak of its expansion, the company’s CEO spoke of a “big change in agriculture.” But when energy prices rose sharply, Innerfarm was forced to leave the European market and restarted in Canada with a significantly smaller business model. High energy use makes vertical farms debatable. Jennifer Amman from a US energy-saving group said these farms use similar tech to keep humans comfortable, but for plants. They save a lot of water, but energy is their big weakness. Luckily, renewable energy and new tech may solve this, like smart LED lights that only produce the wavelengths plants need, saving electricity. Vertical farms have other advantages. They save space, so they’re great for cities. They can be in warehouses, balconies or even kitchen cupboards. In controlled environments, perfect vegetables can grow all year round. Almost all water is recycled, no pesticides are needed since there are no bugs, and they don’t have to use soil. This is useful because the UN says about a third of the world’s soil is degraded, and over 90% could be by 2050. Farming today faces three big challenges: more demand from a growing population, unpredictable yields due to climate change, and an ageing workforce. Thus, solutions like urban vertical farming are needed. The farms of the future will probably look very different from today’s. 32．(2.5分)Why did the author refer to Innerfarm? A．To show the difficulties in indoor farming. B．To illustrate a successful energy-saving case. C．To stress the bright future of indoor farming. D．To introduce a leading vertical-farming company. 33．(2.5分)What is the major disadvantage of vertical farms according to Jennifer? A．Consuming amounts of water. B．Relying on advanced technology. C．Using plenty of energy. D．Depending on weather patterns. 34．(2.5分)What does the UN’s data in Paragraph 5 imply? A．Soil-friendly crops are needed. B．Vertical farming has more potential. C．Soil improvement is key to farming. D．Area of indoor farming will decrease. 35．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the passage? A．Indoor Agriculture: A Double-Edged Sword B．Energy: A Deciding Factor for Vertical Farms C．Soils Farming: Growing Food Beyond Weather D．Vertical Farming: Agriculture’s Future in a Changing World 【答案】32．A 33．C 34．B 35．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了在气候变化背景下，垂直农业作为一种应对传统农业困境的创新方式，探讨了它的优势、面临的挑战以及未来发展前景。 【详解】32．推理判断题。根据第三段“However, expanding is hard.(然而，扩张很困难。)”以及“But when energy prices rose sharply, Innerfarm was forced to leave the European market and restarted in Canada with a significantly smaller business model.(但当能源价格急剧上涨时，Innerfarm被迫退出欧洲市场，并在加拿大重新起步，采用了规模大幅缩小的商业模式。)”可知，作者举Innerfarm的例子是为了说明室内农业在扩张过程中面临的困难。故选A。 33．细节理解题。根据第四段“Jennifer Amman from a US energy-saving group said these farms use similar tech to keep humans comfortable, but for plants. They save a lot of water, but energy is their big weakness.(来自美国节能组织的Jennifer Amman表示，这些农场使用类似的技术来让植物处于适宜环境，就像给人类提供舒适环境一样。它们能节约大量水资源，但能源消耗是其最大的短板。)”可知，Jennifer认为垂直农场的主要缺点是能源消耗量大。故选C。 34．推理判断题。根据第五段“Almost all water is recycled, no pesticides are needed since there are no bugs, and they don’t have to use soil. This is useful because the UN says about a third of the world’s soil is degraded, and over 90% could be by 2050.(几乎所有水都能循环利用，因为没有害虫所以无需农药，而且它们不需要土壤。这一点很实用，因为联合国表示，目前全球约三分之一的土壤已经退化，到2050年这一比例可能超过90%。)”可知，联合国的数据说明了土壤退化的严峻现状，而垂直农场无需土壤的特点恰好能应对这一问题，暗示了垂直农业具有更大的发展潜力。故选B。 35．主旨大意题。根据第一段“To deal with this, agriculture needs to adapt. One idea is indoor farming, where weather doesn’t matter.(为应对这种情况，农业需要做出调整。其中一个办法就是室内农业，在那里天气不再是问题。)  以及第六段“Farming today faces three big challenges: more demand from a growing population, unpredictable yields due to climate change, and an ageing workforce. Thus, solutions like urban vertical farming are needed. The farms of the future will probably look very different from today’s.(如今的农业面临三大挑战：人口增长带来的需求增加、气候变化导致的产量不稳定，以及劳动力老龄化。因此，像城市垂直农业这样的解决方案是必要的。未来的农场很可能与今天的大不相同。)”可知，文章开篇点明气候变化迫使农业转型，引出垂直农业这一解决方案；随后分析了垂直农业的优缺点，并结合全球农业面临的三大挑战，指出未来农业的形态将发生改变。 D选项“Vertical Farming: Agriculture’s Future in a Changing World(垂直农业：变化世界中的农业未来)”既呼应了“气候变化推动农业转型”的背景，也点明了垂直农业作为未来农业发展方向的核心，最能概括全文主旨。故选D。 （本题12.5分）On his 15th birthday, Wilson Bentley’s mother gave him an old microscope. It was snowing that day, and the boy succeeded in getting a glimpse of a six-sided snowflake (雪花) with the device. 36(2.5分) When he was 17, Bentley asked his parents to buy him a new, better microscope and a camera. Bentley then spent 2 years figuring out how to take a picture of a snowflake under a microscope. On January 15, 1885, he did it, creating the world’s first photomicrograph. 37(2.5分) Outdoors, he collected snowflakes on a wooden tray that was painted black. Once inside, while still wearing big gloves to keep his hands warm, he used a straw (吸管) to pick up the snowflake and place it on a microscope slide. Then being careful not to breathe on the flake, he quickly examined and photographed it. Taking photomicrographs was only half of a long process. In those days, glass plates (感光板) were used to take photographs. Bentley developed the plates in a dark room under some stairs and then carried the plates to a nearby stream to wash them. 38(2.5分) Bentley shared his snowflakes with anyone interested. He sold prints of his photomicrographs for 5 cents each. He wrote articles for scientists and for magazines such as National Geographic. Occasionally, he felt discouraged that few people seemed to care about his work. 39(2.5分) At age 65, he photographed his 5,000th snowflake. Slowly, people became interested. Reporters sometimes appeared at his door. People began to call him “the Snowflake Man” and “Professor Bentley.” 40(2.5分) In 1920, Bentley was elected as one of the first members of the American Meteorological Society, which later awarded him its first research grant in 1924. A．Still, he never stopped. B．The process was difficult and cold. C．Sometimes he did this at night in the dark. D．Jewelry makers copied the snowflake designs. E．Sometimes he handled the snowflake with a feather. F．He dedicated himself to observing flakes of snow for 60 years. G．This was the beginning of a fascination that lasted the rest of his life. 【答案】36．G 37．B 38．C 39．A 40．D 【导语】文章讲述了Wilson Bentley从15岁迷恋雪花开始，通过自制设备拍摄世界上首张雪花显微照片，并克服严寒与技术困难持续研究多年，最终其成果获得认可。 【详解】36．上文“On his 15th birthday, Wilson Bentley’s mother gave him an old microscope. It was snowing that day, and the boy succeeded in getting a glimpse of a six-sided snowflake (雪花) with the device. (在Wilson Bentley 15岁生日那天，他的母亲送给他一台旧显微镜。那天正在下雪，这个男孩用这台仪器成功地看到了一个六边形的雪花。)”讲述Bentley在15岁生日时首次用显微镜看到六边形雪花，下文“When he was 17, Bentley asked his parents to buy him a new, better microscope and a camera. (在他17岁那年，Bentley请求父母给他买一台新的、更好的显微镜以及一台相机。)”提到他在17岁时想要更好的显微镜和相机，因此G项“This was the beginning of a fascination that lasted the rest of his life. (这是他终生迷恋雪花的开端。)”符合语境，指出首次看到雪花的经历对他产生了深远影响，承上启下。 37．下文“Outdoors, he collected snowflakes on a wooden tray that was painted black. Once inside, while still wearing big gloves to keep his hands warm, he used a straw (吸管) to pick up the snowflake and place it on a microscope slide. Then being careful not to breathe on the flake, he quickly examined and photographed it. (在户外，他将雪花收集在一块涂成黑色的木托盘里。回到室内后，尽管仍戴着大手套以保持双手温暖，他还是用一根吸管将雪花吸起，并将其放在显微镜载玻片上。然后，他小心翼翼地避免对着雪花哈气，迅速对其进行观察并拍照。)”详细描述他在户外收集雪花、用吸管移动雪花、小心避免呼吸影响等细节，因此B项“The process was difficult and cold. (这个过程既困难又寒冷。)”符合语境，可作为段首句概括这一段的主题，统领下文。 38．上文“Bentley developed the plates in a dark room under some stairs and then carried the plates to a nearby stream to wash them. (Bentley在楼梯下的一间暗室里冲洗这些感光板，然后把感光板拿到附近的小溪里冲洗。)”描述他冲洗感光板的方法和过程，因此C项“Sometimes he did this at night in the dark. (有时他在黑暗中夜间进行。)”符合语境，补充说明他冲洗感光板的另一方法，和上文是并列关系。 39．上文“Occasionally, he felt discouraged that few people seemed to care about his work. (有时，他会感到有些沮丧，因为似乎很少有人关心他的工作。)”提到他有时会沮丧，下文“At age 65, he photographed his 5,000th snowflake. (在65岁那年，他拍摄了自己第5000片雪花的照片。)”表明他仍坚持着这项热爱，因此A项“Still, he never stopped. (尽管如此，他从未停止。)”符合语境，和上文构成转折，衔接下文的坚持。 40．上文“Slowly, people became interested. Reporters sometimes appeared at his door. People began to call him “the Snowflake Man” and “Professor Bentley.” (渐渐地，人们开始对他产生了兴趣。记者们有时会来到他家门前。人们开始称他为“雪花先生”和“Bentley教授”。)”指出他受到关注，并列举具体事例佐证，因此D项“Jewelry makers copied the snowflake designs. (珠宝制造商仿制雪花设计。)”符合语境，说明他的工作启发了艺术和商业领域，和上文的事例并列，句式相仿，共同支撑段首提到的关注。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Qiu Yueqi, born in 2000, is a PhD student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

We were on vacation, just me, my husband, and our two kids, out for a nice, safe, socially distanced week away. We went to a popular place called Diana's Baths, where the water falls off a series of flat rocks up the mountain. The baths were full of families, so we made our way to one of the upper levels of rock to keep our distance. Both where we sat and down below, the water fell down and into small pools, where kids in swimsuits were playing water around. I was frightened as I saw my two boys jump between the smooth rocks. I told them to stay away from all those edges. But I soon relaxed, and we were all having fun, laughing in the pools. Suddenly, I turned and saw my son Wyatt sitting down between two rocks in fast-moving water. I shouted at him to get out. He called back something that I couldn't hear, and then he disappeared over the edge. All I remember from the moments after was screaming, over and over, like a prayer, “Somebody help my son!” I didn't even know what help he needed, because I couldn't force myself to look. My husband was already jumping down the rocks. I finally looked. Wyatt was sitting up-he was alive. My biggest fear was gone. As I held my younger son, Jed, close, I heard another woman scream. “That child just went over the waterfall!” she shouted at her husband. “We are leaving!” They walked away, never even looking back to see whether our child was OK. It was about 4 meters from the top of the waterfall to the pool below, which was filled with huge rocks. Wyatt had fallen on his back, straight onto the rocks. That's what Lisa told us. We didn't know her name was Lisa at that point. All we knew was that while everyone else looked on from a distance, too afraid or unbothered to help, Lisa didn't hesitate. 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。 Later, Lisa told me that she was a nurse. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The rescue team finally came. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Later, Lisa told me that she was a nurse. In fact, by the time I climbed down the rocks and my husband pulled Wyatt out of the water, she had already called 911. She put a red, white, and blue towel under Wyatt's head. She told us to keep him still and on his back in case he had injured his bones. I finally had time to ask her name. “Lisa,” she said. “And I'm not leaving you.” The rescue team finally came. They took Wyatt out of the park to the nearest hospital. Wyatt had three broken bones and a wound in lung—injuries that sound terrible but recover on their own. As soon as I knew that Wyatt was going to be OK, my thoughts fell to Lisa. If she had not stepped up, would someone else have done so? Perhaps. But it was her. She was the one who went toward the unthinkable instead of turning away. 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了去年8月，作者一家在Diana's Baths度假时孩子遇险被救的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“后来，Lisa 告诉我她是一名护士。”可知，第一段可描写当作者对丈夫把孩子救上岸之后Lisa 的做法。 ②由第二段首句内容“救援队终于来了。”可知，第二段可描写作者的儿子被送进医院救治，得知儿子没事以后，作者就在想帮助过他们的人Lisa是怎样做到这么勇敢的。 2.续写线索：Wyatt 被救上岸——Lisa帮忙救助 ——送进医院治疗——回想起Lisa——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.站出来：step up/come forward②.转身离去：turn away/turn around to leave 情绪类 可怕： terrible /horrible 【点睛】[高分句型1]. If she had not stepped up, would someone else have done so?（运用了if引导的虚拟语气） [高分句型2]. Wyatt had three broken bones and a wound in lung-injuries that sound terrible but recover on their own.（运用了that引导的定语从句，修饰先行词a wound in lung-injuries ） 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试——Unit 5 Working the Land（适中版02）（原卷版） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What crop does the woman’s uncle plant?

At 44, she did the “Wu Experiment” (1956), proving parity violation (宇称不守恒) — particles don’t act the same in mirror images. This helped two male scientists win the Nobel Prize. She taught at Columbia University, guided many students, and earned the Wolf Prize in Physics (1978). Marie Curie (1867-1934, Polish-French) She was the only person to win the Nobel Prizes in two sciences (Physics 1903, Chemistry 1911). Born in Poland, she worked in France. With her husband, she discovered polonium (1898, named after Poland) and radium at 31. She studied radioactivity, used it in early cancer treatment, and helped make X-ray machines for World War I hospitals. Rosalind Franklin (1920-1958, British) A 31-year-old biophysicist, she took “Photo 51” (1952) — the first clear X-ray picture of DNA．This image was key for Watson and Crick to figure out DNA’s double-helix structure. She also studied coal and viruses, but died young at 37 from illness linked to her work. Lise Meitner (1878-1968, Austrian-Swedish) She was a Jewish physicist who fled (逃离) Austria to Sweden in 1938 (age 60). With Otto Hahn, she discovered nuclear fission (核裂变) — splitting atoms to release huge energy. She named “fission” and explained how it works, though Hahn alone got the 1944 Nobel. She later taught in Sweden and became a global physics icon (偶像). 21．(2.5分)What is special about polonium? A．It won its discoverer the Wolf Prize. B．It was named after Marie Curie’s homeland. C．It helped make X-ray machines. D．It was the key to developing nuclear energy. 22．(2.5分)What part did Rosalind Franklin’s “Photo 51” play? A．It helped uncover DNA’s double-helix shape. B．It proved parity violation in nuclear physics. C．It supported the study of coal and viruses. D．It made her win a Nobel Prize directly. 23．(2.5分)What did Lise Meitner do after fleeing Austria in 1938? A．She taught at Columbia University. B．She received the Nobel Prize. C．She explained how nuclear fission works. D．She discovered nuclear fission with her husband. （本题10分）Chen Zhu, a Chinese hematologist (血液学家), received the 2026 Shaw Prize in Life Science and Medicine on May 27. For him, true achievements don’t come from seeking awards. His drive comes from somewhere deeper. Born in Jiangsu in 1953, he lived a tough life and began learning medicine on his own as a young man, later becoming a village doctor. His deep wish to help others pushed him to receive formal medical training. Later, he went to France for further research, where he deepened his knowledge of medical science. Chen Zhu’s greatest contribution is in the fight against acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL), a deadly blood cancer. In the past most APL patients died within weeks. The standard treatment often harmed healthy parts along with cancerous ones, leaving patients too weak to survive. As a result, the five-year survival rate was only between 35% and 45%. Inspired by traditional Chinese medicine, which uses a dangerous material called arsenic (砷) to treat certain diseases, Chen Zhu and his team developed a targeted treatment. They combined (结合) arsenic with a Western drug. The result was amazing: the new treatment could cure over 90% of APL patients. “Chinese and Western medicine are not enemies,” Chen says. “They can learn from each other.” Some experts doubted his idea at first, but Chen stood his ground. “It takes time and courage,” he explains. “You have to believe in what you do.” Over time, more scientists came to support him, and the treatment — now called the “Shanghai Program” — has been applied in hospitals across the world. When receiving the Shaw Prize, he said, “This honor belongs to every researcher who believes in saving lives above all else.” From Tu Youyou’s artemisinin to Chen Zhu’s APL cure, Chinese scientists have once again shown the world the power of bringing together tradition with new ideas. 24．(2.5分)What mainly drove Chen Zhu to achieve success in medicine? A．Desire to help those who suffer. B．Pressure from his early difficult life. C．Encouragement of the French research team. D．The hope of winning international recognition. 25．(2.5分)What was the problem with past APL treatment? A．It was too painful for most patients. B．Patients died too quickly after treatment. C．It had a success rate of only 35% to 45%. D．It hurt healthy parts while killing cancer. 26．(2.5分)How did Chen Zhu develop the new APL treatment? A．By integrating arsenic with a Western medicine.

Though the emissions of each farm would go down, much more food would have to be imported, as the amount they would produce would decrease greatly. “The key message from my perspective is that you can’t really have your cake and eat it,” says Laurence Smith, now at the Royal Agricultural University in the UK, who was part of the team that ran the numbers. Smith is a supporter of organic farming and says “there are a lot of merits of the organic approach”, but his analysis shows that organic farming has downsides too. Farming and changes in land use, such as cutting down forests, are responsible for a third of all greenhouse gas emissions. That means reducing farming emissions and the land needed for farming is required to limit further global warming. Smith and his colleagues found that emissions per unit of food are, on average, 20 per cent lower for organic crops and 4 per cent lower for organic animal products. However, organic harvests per hectare (公顷) are also lower on average. For wheat and barley, for instance, harvests are just half of those of conventional farms. This means 1. 5times as much land would be needed to grow the same amount of these foods. The estimated increase in emissions varies greatly, depending on where the extra farmland comes from. If only half comes from turning grassland into farms, the increase could be as low as 20 per cent. If grassland that would otherwise have been reforested is turned into farmland, emissions could nearly double. This doesn’t necessarily mean people should stop eating organic produce, says Smith. People might choose organic food for other reasons, such as to reduce their pesticide exposure (though contrary to popular belief, organic farmers do use pesticides) or for the sake of wildlife. Going 100 per cent organic could also harm global biodiversity. The extra land used for farming would mean the land available for wildlife would be smaller and more fragmented (碎片化的) . Smith says the best option may be to use some organic and conventional farming methods at the same time. 28．(2.5分)Why may greenhouse gas emissions increase if a country goes organic? A．Organic farms take longer to build. B．The agricultural output will increase greatly. C．The emissions of each farm unit will increase. D．Greater demand for imported food will be created. 29．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “merits” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Changes. B．Challenges. C．Advantages. D．Differences. 30．(2.5分)What did Smith and his colleagues find? A．Organic harvests per unit are greater than traditional harvests. B．Organic farming needs more farmland to feed a country. C．Global warming could be brought under control. D．Land was not used in a responsible way. 31．(2.5分)What is Smith’s proposal? A．Stopping using pesticides. B．Eating less organic produce. C．Going back to traditional farming. D．Adopting mixed farming methods. （本题10分）Farming relies more on weather than most businesses. Harvest mostly depends on regular sunshine and rainfall. But climate change is breaking the earth’s long-predictable weather patterns. A warmer world makes problems like drought, flooding and pests worse. To deal with this, agriculture needs to adapt. One idea is indoor farming, where weather doesn’t matter. In indoor spaces, conditions like temperature and moisture (湿度) can be controlled accurately with technology. Growing crops indoors isn’t new, but climate change may push more farming indoors. So the industry has tried to expand this method over the past 20 years. However, expanding is hard. Innerfarm, a startup founded in 2013, became one of Europe’s biggest vertical-farming (垂直种植) companies, with about 1,400 farms and partnerships with major sellers. At the peak of its expansion, the company’s CEO spoke of a “big change in agriculture.” But when energy prices rose sharply, Innerfarm was forced to leave the European market and restarted in Canada with a significantly smaller business model. High energy use makes vertical farms debatable. Jennifer Amman from a US energy-saving group said these farms use similar tech to keep humans comfortable, but for plants. They save a lot of water, but energy is their big weakness. Luckily, renewable energy and new tech may solve this, like smart LED lights that only produce the wavelengths plants need, saving electricity. Vertical farms have other advantages. They save space, so they’re great for cities. They can be in warehouses, balconies or even kitchen cupboards. In controlled environments, perfect vegetables can grow all year round. Almost all water is recycled, no pesticides are needed since there are no bugs, and they don’t have to use soil. This is useful because the UN says about a third of the world’s soil is degraded, and over 90% could be by 2050. Farming today faces three big challenges: more demand from a growing population, unpredictable yields due to climate change, and an ageing workforce. Thus, solutions like urban vertical farming are needed. The farms of the future will probably look very different from today’s. 32．(2.5分)Why did the author refer to Innerfarm? A．To show the difficulties in indoor farming. B．To illustrate a successful energy-saving case. C．To stress the bright future of indoor farming. D．To introduce a leading vertical-farming company. 33．(2.5分)What is the major disadvantage of vertical farms according to Jennifer? A．Consuming amounts of water. B．Relying on advanced technology. C．Using plenty of energy. D．Depending on weather patterns. 34．(2.5分)What does the UN’s data in Paragraph 5 imply? A．Soil-friendly crops are needed. B．Vertical farming has more potential. C．Soil improvement is key to farming. D．Area of indoor farming will decrease. 35．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the passage? A．Indoor Agriculture: A Double-Edged Sword B．Energy: A Deciding Factor for Vertical Farms C．Soils Farming: Growing Food Beyond Weather D．Vertical Farming: Agriculture’s Future in a Changing World （本题12.5分）On his 15th birthday, Wilson Bentley’s mother gave him an old microscope. It was snowing that day, and the boy succeeded in getting a glimpse of a six-sided snowflake (雪花) with the device. 36(2.5分) When he was 17, Bentley asked his parents to buy him a new, better microscope and a camera. Bentley then spent 2 years figuring out how to take a picture of a snowflake under a microscope. On January 15, 1885, he did it, creating the world’s first photomicrograph. 37(2.5分) Outdoors, he collected snowflakes on a wooden tray that was painted black. Once inside, while still wearing big gloves to keep his hands warm, he used a straw (吸管) to pick up the snowflake and place it on a microscope slide. Then being careful not to breathe on the flake, he quickly examined and photographed it. Taking photomicrographs was only half of a long process. In those days, glass plates (感光板) were used to take photographs. Bentley developed the plates in a dark room under some stairs and then carried the plates to a nearby stream to wash them. 38(2.5分) Bentley shared his snowflakes with anyone interested. He sold prints of his photomicrographs for 5 cents each. He wrote articles for scientists and for magazines such as National Geographic. Occasionally, he felt discouraged that few people seemed to care about his work. 39(2.5分) At age 65, he photographed his 5,000th snowflake. Slowly, people became interested. Reporters sometimes appeared at his door. People began to call him “the Snowflake Man” and “Professor Bentley.” 40(2.5分) In 1920, Bentley was elected as one of the first members of the American Meteorological Society, which later awarded him its first research grant in 1924. A．Still, he never stopped. B．The process was difficult and cold. C．Sometimes he did this at night in the dark. D．Jewelry makers copied the snowflake designs. E．Sometimes he handled the snowflake with a feather. F．He dedicated himself to observing flakes of snow for 60 years. G．This was the beginning of a fascination that lasted the rest of his life. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Qiu Yueqi, born in 2000, is a PhD student at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

We were on vacation, just me, my husband, and our two kids, out for a nice, safe, socially distanced week away. We went to a popular place called Diana's Baths, where the water falls off a series of flat rocks up the mountain. The baths were full of families, so we made our way to one of the upper levels of rock to keep our distance. Both where we sat and down below, the water fell down and into small pools, where kids in swimsuits were playing water around. I was frightened as I saw my two boys jump between the smooth rocks. I told them to stay away from all those edges. But I soon relaxed, and we were all having fun, laughing in the pools. Suddenly, I turned and saw my son Wyatt sitting down between two rocks in fast-moving water. I shouted at him to get out. He called back something that I couldn't hear, and then he disappeared over the edge. All I remember from the moments after was screaming, over and over, like a prayer, “Somebody help my son!” I didn't even know what help he needed, because I couldn't force myself to look. My husband was already jumping down the rocks. I finally looked. Wyatt was sitting up-he was alive. My biggest fear was gone. As I held my younger son, Jed, close, I heard another woman scream. “That child just went over the waterfall!” she shouted at her husband. “We are leaving!” They walked away, never even looking back to see whether our child was OK. It was about 4 meters from the top of the waterfall to the pool below, which was filled with huge rocks. Wyatt had fallen on his back, straight onto the rocks. That's what Lisa told us. We didn't know her name was Lisa at that point. All we knew was that while everyone else looked on from a distance, too afraid or unbothered to help, Lisa didn't hesitate. 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。 Later, Lisa told me that she was a nurse. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The rescue team finally came. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
