They will become more important as the world turns away from fossil fuels, such as oil and coal. In a new study, researchers from the University of Surrey have shown that where you choose to plant energy crops makes a big difference to biodiversity. A detailed analysis has shown that, compared to planting them elsewhere, planting energy crops on existing agricultural land in places like China and Central Europe could diminish harm to biodiversity. Planting in these locations could then allow agricultural land in other places to be restored to natural habitats, maximizing the benefits to biodiversity. The study is published in the Journal of Applied Ecology. Sophi e Tudge, who carried out the research at Surrey’s Center for Environment and Sustainability, said, “Our study suggests that, as far as biodiversity is concerned, it is always best to restore farmland to nature rather than re-plant it with energy crops.” “Yet, we are realists. In the future, more fuel will come from crops, and it is far better to plant them on existing farms than to destroy remaining natural habitats. We have shown that where you plant those crops makes a huge difference to how many species continue to grow healthily,” she added. When farmland is restored to nature, it creates new habitats for many species. Using that land to plant energy crops instead can be a missed opportunity to improve biodiversity. Given that energy crops need to be planted somewhere, researchers calculated which locations would have the smallest net impact on biodiversity. They studied which habitats contained the richest mix of species. They then compared that information with maps of land use and information about where energy crops could produce the biggest yields (产量). The researchers found that the harm to biodiversity could be minimized in places like Central Europe and the east coasts of the U. S. and China. However, food security, farmers’ willingness, and surrounding energy infrastructure (基础设施) are also important. “After all, we depend on them to grow crops,” she said. 4. What does the underlined word “diminish” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Make something smaller. B. Increase greatly. C. Remain unchanged. D. Get rid of completely. 5. What can we learn from Sophie Tudge’s words in paragraph 4? A. Highest yields are the only priority. B. Energy crops do harm to biodiversity. C. Restoring farmland to nature is the best choice. D. Planting on current farms protects natural habitats. 6. What should be done in energy crop planting areas according to the last paragraph? A. Considering many factors besides biodiversity. B. Caring about biodiversity over other factors. C. Focusing primarily on energy crop yields. D. Planting energy crops in all available farmland. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Farmland should be restored to nature. B. Energy crops will replace fossil fuels. C. Biodiversity calls for concern. D. Where Energy Crops grow Affects Biodiversity. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了能源作物种植地点对生物多样性的影响。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。由文章第二段中“A detailed analysis has shown that, compared to planting them elsewhere, planting energy crops on existing agricultural land in places like China and Central Europe could diminish harm to biodiversity. Planting in these locations could then allow agricultural land in other places to be restored to natural habitats, maximizing the benefits to biodiversity. (一项详细分析显示，与在其他地方种植相比，在中国和中欧等地的现有农业土地上种植能源作物可以diminish对生物多样性的损害。在这些地点种植，可以使其他地方的农业土地恢复为自然栖息地，从而最大限度地促进生物多样性)”可知，在现有农业土地上种植能源作物可以“减少”对生物多样性的危害，从而使其他地方恢复自然栖息地，最大化生物多样性益处。因此，diminish在此处意为“使某物变小或减少”，与Make something smaller“使得某物更小”意思相符。故选A。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段中““Yet, we are realists. In the future, more fuel will come from crops, and it is far better to plant them on existing farms than to destroy remaining natural habitats. We have shown that where you plant those crops makes a huge difference to how many species continue to grow healthily,” she added. (“然而，我们也很现实。未来，更多燃料将来自作物，而且在现有农田上种植作物远比破坏剩余的自然栖息地要好得多。我们已经证明，种植作物的地点对多少物种能够继续健康生长有着巨大影响，”她补充道)”可知，在当前农场上种植能源作物可以保护自然栖息地，避免破坏它们。故选D。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。由文章最后一段中“However, food security, farmers’ willingness, and surrounding energy infrastructure (基础设施) are also important. “After all, we depend on them to grow crops,” she said. (然而，食品安全、农民的意愿和周围的能源基础设施也很重要。“毕竟，我们依靠它们来种植作物，”她说)”可知，除了生物多样性之外，还需要考虑许多其他因素。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段中“In a new study, researchers from the University of Surrey have shown that where you choose to plant energy crops makes a big difference to biodiversity. (在一项新研究中，萨里大学的研究人员发现，种植能源作物的地点对生物多样性有着重大影响)”可知，文章主要讲述了一项新的研究表明能源作物种植地点的选择对生物多样性有很大的影响。因此，文章的主旨大意是能源作物的种植地点影响生物多样性。故选D。 C “How many of us as children have stared up at a church-like top of a giant tree and climbed it in wonder, which is a rally special part of our lives?” asks Bill Laurance, a tropical ecologist at James Cook University. “The leaves of big trees in forests are spreading out in all directions. We’re faced with organisms that have evolved for long periods of ecological stability.” “There’s a lot to discuss on the issue,” says David Lindenmayer, a conservation ecologist at the Australian National University. “Climate change will mean that, in some forests, big trees won’t reach the same sizes they used to.” The effects of climate change, including long droughts, more invasive species and so on increase the simple physical challenges that big trees face in pulling water from their roots to their leaves and withstanding windstorms. Lindenmayer and Laurance define “large, old trees” as the largest five percent mature trees within a species. The flexible definition means that in some forests, the large, old trees might be only 20 meters tall and 100 years old. These large, old trees control the surrounding plant communities, affect water and nutrient distribution, and provide food and shelter for wildlife. “They’re really the breadbaskets of the forest,” says Laurance. “This is a very environmentally and ecologically important group of organisms, and they need special care and handling.” Determining the distribution and habitat requirements for large, old trees in the landscape is the first step towards ensuring their survival, “We have to ensure that what we’re thinking is long-term, to match the way these trees have existed for hundreds or even thousands of years,” says Laurance. “It’s going to be a real challenge to keep some places where there is still wildlife and the big church-like trees that we all really care about.” 8. How does the author lead in the topic of the text? A. By definition. B. By quoting someone's words. C. By comparison. D. By drawing some conclusions. 9. What can we learn about big trees from paragraph 2? A. They have become shorter but thicker. B. They easily pull water from their roots. C. They are affected by various factors. D. They grow taller because of climate change. 10. Which of the following does Laurance want to express in the last paragraph? A. Planting big trees is the first step in forest protection. B. The plants around control trees survival. C. Big trees mainly depend on wildlife for survival. D. It is necessary to take good care of big trees. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Protect Forest Giants B. Keep Ecological Stability C. Deal with Forest: Organisms D. Fight Against Climate Change 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章说明了古树是森林的粮仓，对环境和生态都非常重要，我们要保护森林巨人。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段““How many of us as children have stared up at a church-like top of a giant tree and climbed it in wonder, which is a rally special part of our lives?” asks Bill Laurance, a tropical ecologist at James Cook University. ”(“我们当中有多少人在孩提时代曾仰望一棵像教堂一样的大树顶部，满怀好奇地爬上去，这是我们生活中特殊的一部分？”詹姆斯·库克大学的热带生态学家比尔·劳伦斯问道)”以及第二段中 ““There’s a lot to discuss on the issue,” says David Lindenmayer, a conservation ecologist at the Australian National University. “Climate change will mean that, in some forests, big trees won’t reach the same sizes they used to.”(“这个问题有很多值得讨论的地方，”澳大利亚国立大学的保护生态学家David Lindenmayer说，“气候变化将意味着，在一些森林中，大树将无法达到过去的大小。”)”可推知，作者通过引用某人的话来引入文章主题。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The effects of climate change, including long droughts, more invasive species and so on increase the simple physical challenges that big trees face in pulling water from their roots to their leaves and withstanding windstorms.(气候变化的影响，包括长期干旱、更多入侵物种等，增加了大树在将水从根部抽到叶子和抵御风暴方面面临的简单物理挑战)”可知，大树受到各种因素的影响。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““They’re really the breadbaskets of the forest,” says Laurance. “This is a very environmentally and ecologically important group of organisms, and they need special care and handling.”(“它们真的是森林的粮仓，”劳伦斯说。“这是一群在环境和生态上非常重要的生物体，它们需要特殊的照顾和处理。”)”可推知，劳伦斯想在最后一段表达的是照顾好大树是必要的。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“These large, old trees control the surrounding plant communities, affect water and nutrient distribution, and provide food and shelter for wildlife. “They’re really the breadbaskets of the forest,” says Laurance. “This is a very environmentally and ecologically important group of organisms, and they need special care and handling.” Determining the distribution and habitat requirements for large, old trees in the landscape is the first step towards ensuring their survival, “We have to ensure that what we’re thinking is long-term, to match the way these trees have existed for hundreds or even thousands of years,” says Laurance. “It’s going to be a real challenge to keep some places where there is still wildlife and the big church-like trees that we all really care about.”(这些又大又老的树木控制着周围的植物群落，影响着水和养分的分布，并为野生动物提供食物和庇护所。“它们真的是森林的粮仓，”劳伦斯说。“这是一群在环境和生态上非常重要的生物体，它们需要特殊的照顾和处理。” 确定景观中大型古树的分布和栖息地需求是确保它们生存的第一步，“我们必须确保我们的想法是长期的，以匹配这些树已经存在了数百年甚至数千年的方式，”劳伦斯说。“保持一些仍有野生动物和教堂般的大树的地方将是一个真正的挑战，这是我们都真正关心的。”)”结合文章说明了古树是森林的粮仓，对环境和生态都非常重要，我们要保护森林巨人。可知，A选项“保护森林巨人”最符合文章标题。故选A。 D Would a person born blind, who has learned to distinguish objects by touch, be able to recognize them purely by sight if he regained the ability to see? The question, known as Molyneux’s problem, is about whether the human mind has a built-in concept of shapes that is so inborn that a blind person could immediately recognize an object with restored vision. Alternatively, the concepts of shapes are not inborn but have to be learned by exploring an object through sight, touch and other senses. After their attempt to test it in blind children failed, Lars Chittka of Queen Mary University of London and his team carried out another experiment on bumblebees. To test whether bumblebees can form an internal representation of objects, they first trained the insects to distinguish globes from cubes using a sugar reward. The bees were first trained in the light, where they could see but not touch the objects. Then they were tested in the dark, where they could touch but not see the items. The researchers found that the insects spent more time in contact with the shape they had been trained to associate with the sugar reward, even though they had to rely on touch rather than sight to distinguish the objects. The researchers also did the opposite test with untrained bumblebees, first teaching them with rewards in the dark and then testing them in the light. Again, the bees were able to recognize the shape associated with the sugar reward, though they had to rely on sight rather than touch in the test. In short, bees have solved Molyneux’s problem because the fact suggests that they can picture object features and access them through sight or touch. However, some experts express their warning s against the result. Jonathan Birch, a philosopher of science, cautions that the bees may have had prior experience associating visual and tactile (触觉) information about straight edges and curved surfaces in their nests. 12. What is Molyneux’s problem about? A. Whether mankind’s sense of touch outweighs sight. B. Whether mankind’s idea of shape is inborn or learned. C. Whether blind people can identify the shape of an item. D. Whether the blind can regain their sense of touch after recovery. 13. How did Lors Chittka and his colleagues try to figure out Molyneux’s problem? A. By experimentation on blind children. B. By conducting controlled experiments. C. By rewarding bumblebees with sugar. D. By observing bumblebees in their nests. 14. What is Jonathan Birch’s attitude towards the conclusion of the bee experiments? A. Skeptical. B. Supportive. C. Dismissive. D. Ambiguous. 15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. Scientists Found Senses Matter B. Visual-Tactile Puzzle Has Been Solved C. Experiments Will Help the Blind Regain Sight D. Bumblebees May Help Solve Molyneux’s Problem 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。这篇文章探讨了Molyneux问题，即一个天生失明但通过触摸学会区分物体的人在恢复视力后是否能够通过视觉来识别物体。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The question, known as Molyneux’s problem, is about whether the human mind has a built-in concept of shapes that is so inborn that a blind person could immediately recognize an object with restored vision. Alternatively, the concepts of shapes are not inborn but have to be learned by exploring an object through sight, touch and other senses.(这个问题被称为Molyneux的问题，是关于人类大脑是否有一种内在的形状概念，这种概念是天生的，以至于盲人可以在恢复视力的情况下立即认出物体。另外，形状的概念不是天生的，而是必须通过视觉、触觉和其他感官探索物体来学习的)”可知，Molyneux问题的内容是人类的形状观念是天生的还是后天习得的。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“After their attempt to test it in blind children failed, Lars Chittka of Queen Mary University of London and his team carried out another experiment on bumblebees. To test whether bumblebees can form an internal representation of objects, they first trained the insects to distinguish globes from cubes using a sugar reward. The bees were first trained in the light, where they could see but not touch the objects. Then they were tested in the dark, where they could touch but not see the items. The researchers found that the insects spent more time in contact with the shape they had been trained to associate with the sugar reward, even though they had to rely on touch rather than sight to distinguish the objects.(在他们试图在失明儿童身上进行测试失败后，伦敦玛丽女王大学的Lars Chittka和他的团队在大黄蜂身上进行了另一项实验。为了测试大黄蜂是否能形成对物体的内部表征，他们首先用糖奖励来训练大黄蜂区分球形和立方体。蜜蜂首先在光线下训练，在那里它们可以看到但不能触摸物体。然后他们在黑暗中进行测试，在那里他们可以触摸但看不到物品。研究人员发现，这些昆虫花了更多的时间来接触它们被训练成与糖奖励相关联的形状，尽管它们必须依靠触觉而不是视觉来区分物体)”可知，Lors Chittka和他的同事是通过控制实验来研究Molyneux问题。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, some experts express their warning s against the result. Jonathan Birch, a philosopher of science, cautions that the bees may have had prior experience associating visual and tactile (触觉) information about straight edges and curved surfaces in their nests.(然而，一些专家对这一结果提出了警告。科学哲学家乔纳森·伯奇(Jonathan Birch)警告说，蜜蜂可能已经有了将巢中的直边和曲面的视觉和触觉信息联系起来的经验)”可知，Jonathan Birch认为蜜蜂可能已经有了将巢中的直边和曲面的视觉和触觉信息联系起来的经验，所以是持怀疑的态度。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“The question, known as Molyneux’s problem, is about whether the human mind has a built-in concept of shapes that is so inborn that a blind person could immediately recognize an object with restored vision. Alternatively, the concepts of shapes are not inborn but have to be learned by exploring an object through sight, touch and other senses.(这个问题被称为Molyneux的问题，是关于人类大脑是否有一种内在的形状概念，这种概念是天生的，以至于盲人可以在恢复视力的情况下立即认出物体。另外，形状的概念不是天生的，而是必须通过视觉、触觉和其他感官探索物体来学习的)”以及纵观全文可知，本文主要讲述了Molyneux问题，并通过大黄蜂来进行实验研究，所以D项“Bumblebees May Help Solve Molyneux’s Problem(大黄蜂可能帮助Molyneux解决问题)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In today’s fast-paced digital world, electronic waste, or e-waste, has become a significant environmental concern.

Inside was a note asking her to open her laptop for a surprise. Curious, she walked to her desk and turned on the screen. A video call started, and Clay, a student she hadn’t seen for ten years, appeared with a big smile. He asked if she remembered him. Katie replied that she did and mentioned he had always loved drawing. Clay said she was the first person who helped him believe in himself. He recalled a moment in class when Katie asked everyone to draw something they were grateful for. While the other students started right away, he just sat there, unsure. Katie came over and gave him a determined look — a small act that made him feel confident. That moment inspired him to show his gratitude. He also remembered how she took the whole class to their first concert, a Blues Traveler show, and how it broadened their world. Clay then said he had invited someone special to help thank her. The screen switched to a music studio where the lead singer of Blues Traveler appeared, and sang a heartfelt song. He said Clay had told him how much Katie meant to the whole class and that the song was for her. With tears in her eyes, Katie smiled and said, “That is the coolest thing I have ever seen.” After the music, Clay reappeared and told her to go outside. Katie stepped onto her front yard and paused at a decorated truck as a crowd applauded. On a big live screen on the side of that truck, dozens of her former students appeared one by one, waving, smiling, and calling out to her. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为130左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Katic stood still, not expecting such a surprise. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The video of the special moments was posted online. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: Katie stood still, not expecting such a surprise. Her eyes scanned the screen, lighting up as familiar faces appeared. Laughter and cheers filled the air as each student took a turn, sharing a short thank-you. One spoke about a time when Katie stayed late to help with homework. Another recalled how Katie comforted them during a tough day. Katie’s hands slowly rose to her mouth, eyes glistening with tears. Her chest tightened — not from sadness, but from joy. A professional video team hired by Clay carefully recorded every heartfelt moment, capturing the warmth and connection filling the yard. The video of the special moments was posted online. Katie watched it again after it was shared, overwhelmed by the flood of comments. Many viewers expressed how they too had been deeply moved by their own teachers. “This is the magic of teaching,” one comment read, “The relationships we build last a lifetime, even if we don’t always realize their impact.” As Katie read through the heartfelt messages, she was reminded that teaching is more than just passing on knowledge — it’s about offering support, encouragement, and sometimes simply being there. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Katie在教师节感恩周收到了十年未见的学生Clay和其他往届学生以及BluesTraveler乐队主唱为她准备的一系列惊喜的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Katie站着不动，没想到会有这样的惊喜。”可知，第一段可描写Katie看到熟悉面孔时的激动情绪，以及学生们分享的与她相关的难忘回忆，还有专业团队对这一温馨时刻的记录。 ②由第二段首句内容“这段特别时刻的视频被发布到了网上。”可知，第二段可描写记录这些特殊时刻的视频被发布到网上后的情况。包括Katie观看视频时的感受，网友们的评论，以及这些评论让Katie对教学意义有了更深的认识。 2.续写线索： Katie看到学生们——学生们表达感激——Katie感动——视频发布——网友反响热烈——Katie感悟教学意义 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①扫视：scan /glance over ②回忆：recall/recollect ③表达感激：show one’s appreciation/express one’s gratitude ④传递：pass on/convey 情感类： ①感动：moved /touched ②温暖：warmth /affection 【点睛】[高分句型1] Her eyes scanned the screen, lighting up as familiar faces appeared.（运用了现在分词短语lighting up作状语，以及as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] As Katie read through the heartfelt messages, she was reminded that teaching is more than just passing on knowledge — it’s about offering support, encouragement, and sometimes simply being there.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句，以及that引导的宾语从句，同时使用了破折号进行补充说明） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年福建省连江县高三下学期命题趋势预测（一） 英语 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号框涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号框。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，将答题卡交回。 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Rebel Talk Jane Hutcheon Journalist, author and former foreign correspondent (通讯员) Jane Hutcheon knows a thing or two about conversations, and in Rebel Talk she draws on her rich experience in the art of guided conversations to help us begin and nurture conversations.

B Energy crops can be used for heat, electricity and even biofuels like bioethanol. They will become more important as the world turns away from fossil fuels, such as oil and coal. In a new study, researchers from the University of Surrey have shown that where you choose to plant energy crops makes a big difference to biodiversity. A detailed analysis has shown that, compared to planting them elsewhere, planting energy crops on existing agricultural land in places like China and Central Europe could diminish harm to biodiversity. Planting in these locations could then allow agricultural land in other places to be restored to natural habitats, maximizing the benefits to biodiversity. The study is published in the Journal of Applied Ecology. Sophi e Tudge, who carried out the research at Surrey’s Center for Environment and Sustainability, said, “Our study suggests that, as far as biodiversity is concerned, it is always best to restore farmland to nature rather than re-plant it with energy crops.” “Yet, we are realists. In the future, more fuel will come from crops, and it is far better to plant them on existing farms than to destroy remaining natural habitats. We have shown that where you plant those crops makes a huge difference to how many species continue to grow healthily,” she added. When farmland is restored to nature, it creates new habitats for many species. Using that land to plant energy crops instead can be a missed opportunity to improve biodiversity. Given that energy crops need to be planted somewhere, researchers calculated which locations would have the smallest net impact on biodiversity. They studied which habitats contained the richest mix of species. They then compared that information with maps of land use and information about where energy crops could produce the biggest yields (产量). The researchers found that the harm to biodiversity could be minimized in places like Central Europe and the east coasts of the U. S. and China. However, food security, farmers’ willingness, and surrounding energy infrastructure (基础设施) are also important. “After all, we depend on them to grow crops,” she said. 4. What does the underlined word “diminish” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Make something smaller. B. Increase greatly. C. Remain unchanged. D. Get rid of completely. 5. What can we learn from Sophie Tudge’s words in paragraph 4? A. Highest yields are the only priority. B. Energy crops do harm to biodiversity. C. Restoring farmland to nature is the best choice. D. Planting on current farms protects natural habitats. 6. What should be done in energy crop planting areas according to the last paragraph? A. Considering many factors besides biodiversity. B. Caring about biodiversity over other factors. C. Focusing primarily on energy crop yields. D. Planting energy crops in all available farmland. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Farmland should be restored to nature. B. Energy crops will replace fossil fuels. C. Biodiversity calls for concern. D. Where Energy Crops grow Affects Biodiversity. C “How many of us as children have stared up at a church-like top of a giant tree and climbed it in wonder, which is a rally special part of our lives?” asks Bill Laurance, a tropical ecologist at James Cook University. “The leaves of big trees in forests are spreading out in all directions. We’re faced with organisms that have evolved for long periods of ecological stability.” “There’s a lot to discuss on the issue,” says David Lindenmayer, a conservation ecologist at the Australian National University. “Climate change will mean that, in some forests, big trees won’t reach the same sizes they used to.” The effects of climate change, including long droughts, more invasive species and so on increase the simple physical challenges that big trees face in pulling water from their roots to their leaves and withstanding windstorms. Lindenmayer and Laurance define “large, old trees” as the largest five percent mature trees within a species. The flexible definition means that in some forests, the large, old trees might be only 20 meters tall and 100 years old. These large, old trees control the surrounding plant communities, affect water and nutrient distribution, and provide food and shelter for wildlife. “They’re really the breadbaskets of the forest,” says Laurance. “This is a very environmentally and ecologically important group of organisms, and they need special care and handling.” Determining the distribution and habitat requirements for large, old trees in the landscape is the first step towards ensuring their survival, “We have to ensure that what we’re thinking is long-term, to match the way these trees have existed for hundreds or even thousands of years,” says Laurance. “It’s going to be a real challenge to keep some places where there is still wildlife and the big church-like trees that we all really care about.” 8. How does the author lead in the topic of the text? A. By definition. B. By quoting someone's words. C. By comparison. D. By drawing some conclusions. 9. What can we learn about big trees from paragraph 2? A. They have become shorter but thicker. B. They easily pull water from their roots. C. They are affected by various factors. D. They grow taller because of climate change. 10. Which of the following does Laurance want to express in the last paragraph? A. Planting big trees is the first step in forest protection. B. The plants around control trees survival. C. Big trees mainly depend on wildlife for survival. D. It is necessary to take good care of big trees. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. Protect Forest Giants B. Keep Ecological Stability C. Deal with Forest: Organisms D. Fight Against Climate Change D Would a person born blind, who has learned to distinguish objects by touch, be able to recognize them purely by sight if he regained the ability to see? The question, known as Molyneux’s problem, is about whether the human mind has a built-in concept of shapes that is so inborn that a blind person could immediately recognize an object with restored vision. Alternatively, the concepts of shapes are not inborn but have to be learned by exploring an object through sight, touch and other senses. After their attempt to test it in blind children failed, Lars Chittka of Queen Mary University of London and his team carried out another experiment on bumblebees. To test whether bumblebees can form an internal representation of objects, they first trained the insects to distinguish globes from cubes using a sugar reward. The bees were first trained in the light, where they could see but not touch the objects. Then they were tested in the dark, where they could touch but not see the items. The researchers found that the insects spent more time in contact with the shape they had been trained to associate with the sugar reward, even though they had to rely on touch rather than sight to distinguish the objects. The researchers also did the opposite test with untrained bumblebees, first teaching them with rewards in the dark and then testing them in the light. Again, the bees were able to recognize the shape associated with the sugar reward, though they had to rely on sight rather than touch in the test. In short, bees have solved Molyneux’s problem because the fact suggests that they can picture object features and access them through sight or touch. However, some experts express their warning s against the result. Jonathan Birch, a philosopher of science, cautions that the bees may have had prior experience associating visual and tactile (触觉) information about straight edges and curved surfaces in their nests. 12. What is Molyneux’s problem about? A. Whether mankind’s sense of touch outweighs sight. B. Whether mankind’s idea of shape is inborn or learned. C. Whether blind people can identify the shape of an item. D. Whether the blind can regain their sense of touch after recovery. 13. How did Lors Chittka and his colleagues try to figure out Molyneux’s problem? A. By experimentation on blind children. B. By conducting controlled experiments. C. By rewarding bumblebees with sugar. D. By observing bumblebees in their nests. 14. What is Jonathan Birch’s attitude towards the conclusion of the bee experiments? A. Skeptical. B. Supportive. C. Dismissive. D. Ambiguous. 15. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. Scientists Found Senses Matter B. Visual-Tactile Puzzle Has Been Solved C. Experiments Will Help the Blind Regain Sight D. Bumblebees May Help Solve Molyneux’s Problem 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In today’s fast-paced digital world, electronic waste, or e-waste, has become a significant environmental concern.

Inside was a note asking her to open her laptop for a surprise. Curious, she walked to her desk and turned on the screen. A video call started, and Clay, a student she hadn’t seen for ten years, appeared with a big smile. He asked if she remembered him. Katie replied that she did and mentioned he had always loved drawing. Clay said she was the first person who helped him believe in himself. He recalled a moment in class when Katie asked everyone to draw something they were grateful for. While the other students started right away, he just sat there, unsure. Katie came over and gave him a determined look — a small act that made him feel confident. That moment inspired him to show his gratitude. He also remembered how she took the whole class to their first concert, a Blues Traveler show, and how it broadened their world. Clay then said he had invited someone special to help thank her. The screen switched to a music studio where the lead singer of Blues Traveler appeared, and sang a heartfelt song. He said Clay had told him how much Katie meant to the whole class and that the song was for her. With tears in her eyes, Katie smiled and said, “That is the coolest thing I have ever seen.” After the music, Clay reappeared and told her to go outside. Katie stepped onto her front yard and paused at a decorated truck as a crowd applauded. On a big live screen on the side of that truck, dozens of her former students appeared one by one, waving, smiling, and calling out to her. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为130左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Katic stood still, not expecting such a surprise. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The video of the special moments was posted online. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
