On Jeff's last day, the 11 was gathered in the music room. As he walked in, the video began to play. One by one, his former students appeared on screen, their 12 united across generations. Jeff watched in 13 silence, tears streaming down his face. When the video ended, the room erupted in applause. The old piano, still 14 by the window, seemed to shine a little brighter that day.

考向三 说明文
Passage 1
(2026届江西三九校联考高三联合质量检测)Vernacular architecture(乡土建筑), as a 1 of localized knowledge and environmental adaptation, exhibits remarkable diversity across global regions, with each strategy tailored to specific climatic, cultural, and material contexts. By 2 passive design techniques, vernacular structures optimize energy efficiency and occupant comfort, offering invaluable lessons for contemporary sustainable architecture.
These strategies, deeply rooted in their respective climatic contexts, demonstrate a universal 3 of vernacular design: the integration of local environmental dynamics with culturally informed construction practices to achieve energy efficiency and resilience. In tropical zones, for instance, elevated floor plans and porous wall systems 4 cross-ventilation, effectively dissipating trapped heat without mechanical aid. In arid regions, thick earthen walls with narrow openings function as thermal mass, stabilizing indoor temperatures amid 5 diurnal fluctuations.
Critics once dismissed vernacular methods as outdated and 6 with modern urban density, but recent research has 7 refuted this long-held assumption. A 2025 study from the Harvard Graduate School of Design reveals that adapted vernacular strategies can reduce building energy consumption by up to 40 percent in dense urban settings, 8 many high-tech sustainable solutions. The key lies in contextual sensitivity rather than rigid 9 : designers extract core climatic principles and recombine them with modern materials and structural engineering.
This revival of vernacular wisdom marks a profound 10 in architectural discourse, moving beyond purely aesthetic trends toward environmentally rooted design. It challenges the notion that progress requires 11 tradition, instead framing heritage as a dynamic resource for addressing 21st-century climate challenges. 12 , as urbanization accelerates worldwide, embracing place-based design principles will prove 13 to creating resilient, low-carbon built environments for future generations. Ultimately, this approach 14 a core truth: sustainable architecture does not arise from 15 technological complexity alone, but from harmony with the natural world.

Passage 3
(2026届湖南部分学校高三下学期一模)
Most of us are bad at predicting what will make us happy, including the world’s best athletes.
Four years ago, Swiss skier Mathilde Gremaud won gold at just 22 at the Beijing Winter Olympics. But within a month, her joy had 31 . “There’s nothing left,” she said. “It was super 32 .”
Gremaud is far from an isolated case. Researchers have found that a significant number of Olympians 33 from a phenomenon called the post-Olympic blues — a(n) 34 crash following the Games. For decades, scientists have sought to 35 why this happens. The answer starts with a simple but 36 fact: people are really bad at predicting what will make them happy.
One of the main reasons for this is a cognitive 37 known as “focalism” — the tendency to focus 38 on big, life-changing events while 39 all the smaller, everyday aspects of life. When we imagine happiness, we tend to think of 40 moments: a championship, a promotion, a dream vacation.
But here is what researchers have actually discovered: how good your experiences are doesn’t 41 nearly as much as how many good experiences you have. The 42 of small, positive moments is a far better 43 of overall happiness than the intensity of a single great event.

Passage 4
(2025-2026学年陕西西安市碑林区西安高级中高三下学期模拟预测)In the quiet, dust-moted corners of the British Museum, a silent battle is being waged against the relentless march of time. Here, the “restorers” work with a blend of scientific precision and artistic intuition. Their mission is not to make ancient artifacts look new, but to stabilize them, preserving the 46 of history for future generations.
One such artifact is a fractured Roman vase, shattered into hundreds of pieces. To the untrained eye, it is a pile of 47 shards. To the restorer, it is a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle waiting to be solved. The process begins with meticulous cleaning. Every speck of dirt must be removed, not with harsh chemicals, but with gentle solvents that respect the 48 material.
The most challenging phase is the reassembly. The restorer must hold the fragile pieces together, often without adhesive at first, to understand the 49 structure. It requires a steady hand and immense patience. A moment of 50 could result in irreversible damage. “You have to listen to the object,” says Elena, a senior conservator. “It tells you where it wants to go.”
Once the structure is understood, a reversible adhesive is applied. The choice of glue is critical; it must be strong enough to hold the weight but 51 enough to be removed by future conservators who might have better technology. This principle of reversibility is the 52 of modern conservation ethics. We do not impose our will on the past; we merely 53 it.
There are gaps, of course — missing pieces that were lost centuries ago. In the past, restorers might have 54 these gaps with new clay, trying to deceive the viewer. Today, the philosophy is different. Missing parts are filled with a neutral material, clearly 55 from the original, so that the viewer can distinguish between the ancient craft and the modern repair. Honesty, in this profession, is 56 .
The work is slow, often taking months for a single object. It is not a job for those seeking 57 gratification. The reward is subtle. It comes in the quiet satisfaction of seeing a broken object become whole again, or in the knowledge that a piece of human heritage has been 58 from the jaws of oblivion.
In a world that values speed and novelty, these restorers stand as guardians of 59 . They remind us that while empires fall and civilizations crumble, the human touch — the fingerprint on the clay, the brushstroke on the canvas — can 60 , if only we care enough to save it.

By all accounts, there is a 40 chance you will get ill when someone is wearing shoes in your living room. And if you have got young kids, who rush in and out of the house without 41 at the first sign of the sun, it’s much more practical to keep your shoes on. Not to mention 42 : Fewer things inspire more pity than the sight of adults 43 bending themselves into knots as they attempt to do up their shoelaces in a narrow hallway at the 44 of a night.

Passage 4
(2026届安徽合肥市第六中学高三最后一卷)The days that make us happy make us wise. — by John Masefield
When I first read this line by England’s Poet Laureate, it 46 me. What did Masefield mean? Without thinking about it much, I had always assumed that the 47 was true. But his serious assurance was 48 . I was deeply attracted by it.
Slowly, I seemed to 49 his meaning and realized the wisdom that happiness makes possible lies in clear perception (洞察力), not 50 by anxiety nor dimmed by despair and boredom, and without the blind 51 caused by fear.
Active happiness — not mere satisfaction or 52 — often comes suddenly, like an April shower or the unfolding of a bud. Then you discover what kind of wisdom has 53 it. Amazingly, in your eyes, the grass is greener; bird songs are sweeter; the 54 of your friends are more understandable, and more forgivable. Happiness is like a pair of eyeglasses correcting your 55 vision.
Nor are the 56 of happiness limited to what is near around you. Unhappy, with your thoughts focused on your emotional woes (痛苦), your vision is cut short as though blocked by a wall. Happy, the wall 57 .
Consequently, the long vision is there for the seeing. The ground at your feet, the world about you — people, thoughts, emotions, pressures — are now 58 a larger scene. Everything 59 a fairer proportion (比例). Everything around you, whether it is encouraging or frustrating, no longer seems such a big deal. And here is the beginning of 60 .
46. A. terrified B. surprised C. satisfied D. upset
47. A. other B. opposite C. view D. former
48. A. distracting B. confusing C. arresting D. disturbing
49. A. convey B. observe C. analyse D. appreciate
50. A. iced B. clouded C. rained D. snowed
51. A. spots B. paths C. roads D. places
52. A. entertainment B. sorrow C. disappointment D. fulfillment
53. A. embraced B. interrupted C. accompanied D. survived
54. A. shortcomings B. stupidity C. brightness D. memories
55. A. physical B. ordinary C. spiritual D. daily
56. A. expectations B. impressions C. adventures D. insights
57. A. extended B. collapsed C. remained D. withdrew
58. A. fitted into B. got out C. stayed on D. kept off
59. A. forms B. promises C. needs D. covers
60. A. happiness B. ability C. wisdom D. life
【答案】
46. B 47. B 48. C 49. D 50. B 51. A 52. D 53. C 54. A 55. C
56. D 57. B 58. A 59. D 60. C

On Jeff's last day, the 11 was gathered in the music room. As he walked in, the video began to play. One by one, his former students appeared on screen, their 12 united across generations. Jeff watched in 13 silence, tears streaming down his face. When the video ended, the room erupted in applause. The old piano, still 14 by the window, seemed to shine a little brighter that day.

Passage 1
(2026届江西三九校联考高三联合质量检测)Vernacular architecture(乡土建筑), as a 1 of localized knowledge and environmental adaptation, exhibits remarkable diversity across global regions, with each strategy tailored to specific climatic, cultural, and material contexts. By 2 passive design techniques, vernacular structures optimize energy efficiency and occupant comfort, offering invaluable lessons for contemporary sustainable architecture.
These strategies, deeply rooted in their respective climatic contexts, demonstrate a universal 3 of vernacular design: the integration of local environmental dynamics with culturally informed construction practices to achieve energy efficiency and resilience. In tropical zones, for instance, elevated floor plans and porous wall systems 4 cross-ventilation, effectively dissipating trapped heat without mechanical aid. In arid regions, thick earthen walls with narrow openings function as thermal mass, stabilizing indoor temperatures amid 5 diurnal fluctuations.
Critics once dismissed vernacular methods as outdated and 6 with modern urban density, but recent research has 7 refuted this long-held assumption. A 2025 study from the Harvard Graduate School of Design reveals that adapted vernacular strategies can reduce building energy consumption by up to 40 percent in dense urban settings, 8 many high-tech sustainable solutions. The key lies in contextual sensitivity rather than rigid 9 : designers extract core climatic principles and recombine them with modern materials and structural engineering.
This revival of vernacular wisdom marks a profound 10 in architectural discourse, moving beyond purely aesthetic trends toward environmentally rooted design. It challenges the notion that progress requires 11 tradition, instead framing heritage as a dynamic resource for addressing 21st-century climate challenges. 12 , as urbanization accelerates worldwide, embracing place-based design principles will prove 13 to creating resilient, low-carbon built environments for future generations. Ultimately, this approach 14 a core truth: sustainable architecture does not arise from 15 technological complexity alone, but from harmony with the natural world.

Passage 2
(2026届河南信阳高级中学北湖校区高三考前模拟预测)We see different natural phenomena around us every day, but few of us really understand why they 16 . From rainbows in the sky to seasons changing, most natural phenomena are based on basic scientific 17 . Learning about them not only helps us know the world better but also makes our life more 18 .
A rainbow is one of the most beautiful natural phenomena. It appears when sunlight passes through small water 19 in the air, usually after rain. The light splits into different 20 , making a colorful arc in the sky. Many people think rainbows can only be seen after rain, but in fact, they can also appear near waterfalls or on sunny days with heavy mist.
Seasonal changes are another common phenomenon. The four seasons happen because the earth 21 around the sun. When part of the earth is closer to the sun, it is summer; when it is 22 away, it is winter. This change also 23 the growth of plants and the activities of animals, forming a balanced natural cycle.
Many people are afraid of thunder and lightning, but they are also normal natural phenomena. Lightning is caused by the movement of electric charges in clouds, and thunder is the 24 made by lightning heating the air. We should stay away from open places and tall trees during thunderstorms to keep 25 .
Some other small phenomena, like water turning into ice in winter or leaves falling in autumn, are also 26 by scientific rules. We often take them for granted, but if we 27 carefully, we can find science everywhere in our life.
Understanding natural phenomena teaches us to be curious and 28 the world. It helps us tell the difference between science and superstition, and makes us think more 29 . We should keep observing and learning to 30 the secrets of nature and science.

Passage 3
(2026届湖南部分学校高三下学期一模)
Most of us are bad at predicting what will make us happy, including the world’s best athletes.
Four years ago, Swiss skier Mathilde Gremaud won gold at just 22 at the Beijing Winter Olympics. But within a month, her joy had 31 . “There’s nothing left,” she said. “It was super 32 .”
Gremaud is far from an isolated case. Researchers have found that a significant number of Olympians 33 from a phenomenon called the post-Olympic blues — a(n) 34 crash following the Games. For decades, scientists have sought to 35 why this happens. The answer starts with a simple but 36 fact: people are really bad at predicting what will make them happy.
One of the main reasons for this is a cognitive 37 known as “focalism” — the tendency to focus 38 on big, life-changing events while 39 all the smaller, everyday aspects of life. When we imagine happiness, we tend to think of 40 moments: a championship, a promotion, a dream vacation.
But here is what researchers have actually discovered: how good your experiences are doesn’t 41 nearly as much as how many good experiences you have. The 42 of small, positive moments is a far better 43 of overall happiness than the intensity of a single great event.
44 , happiness is not one big victory. It is the 45 of hundreds of small things.

Passage 4
(2025-2026学年陕西西安市碑林区西安高级中高三下学期模拟预测)In the quiet, dust-moted corners of the British Museum, a silent battle is being waged against the relentless march of time. Here, the “restorers” work with a blend of scientific precision and artistic intuition. Their mission is not to make ancient artifacts look new, but to stabilize them, preserving the 46 of history for future generations.
One such artifact is a fractured Roman vase, shattered into hundreds of pieces. To the untrained eye, it is a pile of 47 shards. To the restorer, it is a three-dimensional jigsaw puzzle waiting to be solved. The process begins with meticulous cleaning. Every speck of dirt must be removed, not with harsh chemicals, but with gentle solvents that respect the 48 material.
The most challenging phase is the reassembly. The restorer must hold the fragile pieces together, often without adhesive at first, to understand the 49 structure. It requires a steady hand and immense patience. A moment of 50 could result in irreversible damage. “You have to listen to the object,” says Elena, a senior conservator. “It tells you where it wants to go.”
Once the structure is understood, a reversible adhesive is applied. The choice of glue is critical; it must be strong enough to hold the weight but 51 enough to be removed by future conservators who might have better technology. This principle of reversibility is the 52 of modern conservation ethics. We do not impose our will on the past; we merely 53 it.
There are gaps, of course — missing pieces that were lost centuries ago. In the past, restorers might have 54 these gaps with new clay, trying to deceive the viewer. Today, the philosophy is different. Missing parts are filled with a neutral material, clearly 55 from the original, so that the viewer can distinguish between the ancient craft and the modern repair. Honesty, in this profession, is 56 .
The work is slow, often taking months for a single object. It is not a job for those seeking 57 gratification. The reward is subtle. It comes in the quiet satisfaction of seeing a broken object become whole again, or in the knowledge that a piece of human heritage has been 58 from the jaws of oblivion.
In a world that values speed and novelty, these restorers stand as guardians of 59 . They remind us that while empires fall and civilizations crumble, the human touch — the fingerprint on the clay, the brushstroke on the canvas — can 60 , if only we care enough to save it.

Passage 1
(2026届湖南长沙市周南中学高三考前模拟)In an era overwhelmed by digital overload, people are often trapped in a desperate rush, aimlessly pursuing efficiency and instant satisfaction.
Last weekend, I 1 cut myself off from the online chaos and stepped into a quiet bookstore. Free from constant 2 and meaningless social comparisons, I 3 myself in reading and enjoyed the rare quiet that has become a 4 in modern society.

Passage 2
(2026届广东佛山市顺德高三考前保温试题英语)
Everyone knows that science is important. The aim of science is to 16 how the world, everything in it and beyond it, works. Some people, 17 , claim that much of what is done in the name of science is a waste of time and money. What is the 18 in investigating how atoms behave or in studying stars billions of kilometres away? Science, they argue, is 19 only if it has some practical application.
Yet history shows that curiosity-driven research often leads to 20 breakthroughs. When the Scottish physicist James Clerk Maxwell 21 experiments with electricity and magnetism in the late 19th century, he had no specific end in 22 and was certainly not 23 to earn money; he was simply trying to understand more about how the world works. Despite this, his work laid the 24 for our modern way of life. Computers, satellites, the Internet, mobile phones and medical scanners all owe their existence to the fact that a scientist 25 the need to understand the world a little better.
Maxwell's candle-lit laboratory was quiet once more, but the ideas he sparked continue to 26 our world. Now more students 27 to ask questions without obvious answers. Such curiosity 28 seeds that may take years, decades or even centuries to bear fruits. Every experiment, every observation, every failure brings us closer to understanding. The value of science lies not only in what it produces but in the 29 it shapes.
And that, ultimately, is the 30 of science.

Passage 3
(2026届陕西省多校联考高三模拟预测)My brother is a determined shoes-off-er. I visited him recently and, within a couple of minutes, he 31 at my feet in horror. “What are those?” he asked. “These?” I replied, pointing to my trainers. “I bought them only —.” “No!” he 32 , his face red. “What are they doing in my house?”
This is the best way to 33 people. There are those who hate the thought of rubber on carpet, who lie awake 34 because wearing outdoors shoes indoors breaks the natural order of things. Then there are normal people like me, who really don’t care because they understand the 35 of doormats.
However, shoes-off-ers might be on to something. A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Houston has shown that 26.4% of shoes 36 the bacteria of Clostridium difficile. Work on a 37 ? A 2014 study concluded that considering the herds you raise your boots are almost certainly covered in E. coli. They are definitely 38 guests to your living rooms.
But I’m going to 39 myself. Sure, it might be more hygienic(卫生的) to remove your shoes at the door, but only to a small extent. By all accounts, there is a 40 chance you will get ill when someone is wearing shoes in your living room. And if you have got young kids, who rush in and out of the house without 41 at the first sign of the sun, it’s much more practical to keep your shoes on. Not to mention 42 : Fewer things inspire more pity than the sight of adults 43 bending themselves into knots as they attempt to do up their shoelaces in a narrow hallway at the 44 of a night.
True, the answer to both of these problems is slippers. But given the choice of slippers or E. coli, I’ll 45 the latter every time.

Passage 4
(2026届安徽合肥市第六中学高三最后一卷)The days that make us happy make us wise. — by John Masefield
When I first read this line by England’s Poet Laureate, it 46 me. What did Masefield mean? Without thinking about it much, I had always assumed that the 47 was true. But his serious assurance was 48 . I was deeply attracted by it.
Slowly, I seemed to 49 his meaning and realized the wisdom that happiness makes possible lies in clear perception (洞察力), not 50 by anxiety nor dimmed by despair and boredom, and without the blind 51 caused by fear.
Active happiness — not mere satisfaction or 52 — often comes suddenly, like an April shower or the unfolding of a bud. Then you discover what kind of wisdom has 53 it. Amazingly, in your eyes, the grass is greener; bird songs are sweeter; the 54 of your friends are more understandable, and more forgivable. Happiness is like a pair of eyeglasses correcting your 55 vision.
Nor are the 56 of happiness limited to what is near around you. Unhappy, with your thoughts focused on your emotional woes (痛苦), your vision is cut short as though blocked by a wall. Happy, the wall 57 .
Consequently, the long vision is there for the seeing. The ground at your feet, the world about you — people, thoughts, emotions, pressures — are now 58 a larger scene. Everything 59 a fairer proportion (比例). Everything around you, whether it is encouraging or frustrating, no longer seems such a big deal. And here is the beginning of 60 .
