In a church parking lot in Connecticut， Jim Curry starts the furnace （火炉） in his mobile blacksmith workshop．The furnace glows orange and lets off a low roar．It’ll get up to 2，000 degrees， hot enough to soften the metal of a tray of disassembled shotgun parts． 　　A crowd is watching， and Curry picks out a 9－year－old boy named Oliver to help him．Oliver swings cautiously at first， flakes of red－hot metal falling around his feet．He reshapes it into a trowel （小铲子） that could be used to plant flowers in a garden．“It was exciting，” Oliver says．“I love the fact that you can take metal that’s random and shape it into something useful．” 　　Curry is a co－founder of Swords to Plowshares Northeast， an organization putting on this event， which helps police departments manage their gun buyback （回购） programs and repurpose the items into gardening tools．Curry says he was inspired by a Mennonite group in Colorado that reforged （重新锻造） useless items into garden tools．Those doing the repurposing are often prisoners， volunteer blacksmiths or eager participants．The finished tools are donated to community gardens and agricultural high schools and the harvested vegetables are donated to soup kitchens and homeless shelters， according to the group’s website． 　　Mary Ann Osborne first volunteered with Swords to Plowshares when a family member fell victim to violence．She helps collect items through police buybacks．“You see the items lying there and then you see them get broken down，” she says．“And then you see people hammer them， and then you see people digging their gardens and something grows．You actually see the transformation．” She says the hammer and forge are powerful symbols and the negative forces can be reshaped into something positive and peaceful． 　　Curry wears a necklace around his neck．“It’s made out of pieces of an AK－47，” he says．“I break it apart， reshape it， then transform it into the sign of peace — the pigeon．And that’s why I wear it．” 24.What can be learned about Oliver according to the text？（　　） A．He helped Curry start the furnace in the workshop． B．He was the first one to be picked by Curry to help． C．He initially swung the tool without any caution． D．He thought it was exciting to shape random metal into a useful trowel． 25.Which of the following can best describe Curry？（　　） A．Cautious and selfless．　　 B．Devoted and unambitious． C．Careless and adventurous．　　 D．Innovative and sympathetic． 26.What does Mary Ann Osborne value most about the programme？（　　） A．The technical skill of blacksmithing． B．The symbolic change from violence to growth． C．The money saved by police departments． D．The publicity the event receives． 27.What message does Curry’s necklace convey？（　　） A．Old guns are valuable items．　　 B．Religious faith can be fashionable． C．Destruction can be turned into hope．　D．Weapons should be collected and displayed． C 　　（2026•湖北省黄冈中学高二上期中） Urban agriculture， the practice of farming within the limits of a city， is becoming increasingly popular worldwide and is considered a way to make cities and urban food systems more sustainable．Despite strong evidence of the social and nutritional benefits of urban agriculture， its carbon footprint remains understudied． 　　Most previously published studies have focused on high－tech， energy－intensive forms of urban agriculture — such as vertical （垂直的） farms and rooftop greenhouses．The new study aimed to fill some of the knowledge gaps by comparing the carbon footprints of food produced at low－tech urban agriculture sites to conventional crops． 　　The researchers calculated the greenhouse gas emissions （排放） associated with on－farm materials and activities over the lifetime of the farm．The emissions， expressed in kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents per serving of food， were then compared to foods raised by conventional methods． 　　Farmers and gardeners at urban agriculture sites across the world were employed to use daily diary entries to take down inputs — the materials used to construct farms and cultivate crops — and harvests from their food－growing sites throughout the 2019 season． 　　“By assessing actual inputs and outputs on urban agriculture sites， we were able to determine climate change impacts on each serving of produce，” says study co－lead author Benjamin Goldstein， assistant professor in the School for Environment and Sustainability．On average， food produced through urban agriculture released 0.42 kilograms of carbon dioxide equivalents per serving， six times higher than the 0.07 kg CO2e per serving of conventionally grown produce． 　　It’s also found that most of the climate impacts at urban farms are driven by the infrastructure （基础设施）， such as the raised beds in which food is grown， or pathways between plots．“These farms typically only operate for a few years， so the greenhouse gases used to produce those materials are not used effectively．Conventional agriculture， instead， is very efficient and hard to compete with”， Goldstein says．For example， conventional farms often grow a single crop with the help of pesticides and fertilizers， resulting in larger harvests and a reduced carbon footprint when compared to urban farms， he says． 28.What is a benefit of urban agriculture？（　　） A．Sustainable food supply．　　 B．High food output． C．Effective energy conservation．　　 D．Low carbon footprint． 29.How is the research data collected？（　　） A．By accessing online database．　　 B．By examining previous studies． C．By conducting personal interviews．　 D．By recording information every day． 30.What could be done to reduce carbon footprint according to Goldstein？（　　） A．Increase varieties of crops．　　 B．Extend infrastructure lifetimes． C．Promote rooftop greenhouses．　　 D．Use modern agriculture facilities． 31.What is the passage mainly about？（　　） A．The benefits of traditional crops．　　 B．The popularity of urban agriculture． C．The strategies to fight global warming．D．The carbon footprint of urban farm produce． D 　　（2026•江西省赣州市二十四校高二上学期期中） Researchers from Northwestern University and the Chicago Botanic Garden will study the carbon capture （碳捕获） effects of soil additives on agricultural fields． 　　For the world to meet the global average temperature goals set forth in the 2015 Paris Agreement， we need to actively decrease carbon emissions （排放）．Earth and planetary sciences professor Andy Jacobson suggests Earth science can help it and that one possible way is to capture atmospheric carbon dioxide （CO2） and lock it away for a few thousand years． 　　The chemical weathering of rocks is a natural phenomenon that transforms atmospheric CO2 into a stable mineral form．When CO2 dissolves in water， it creates a substance that can break down rocks．This transformation releases elements from certain rocks and changes CO2 into a stable form．Over time， these elements combine to form minerals that are the building blocks of many natural structures and rocks．This transformation helps to lock carbon in a solid form， which plays an important part in stabilizing Earth’s climate over the long term． 　　“Over much shorter human timescales， this stable form of CO2 acts as a sink for atmospheric CO2，” says Jacobson．Can we speed up the weathering process and actively remove carbon from the atmosphere at rates fast enough to help reduce the impact of modern climate change？ 　　Enhanced rock weathering was proposed as a strategy of decreasing carbon emissions decades ago but only recently gained interest．An article in a 2020 magazine estimated that enhanced weathering could remove up to 2 billion tons of CO2 annually from the atmosphere by 2050. 　　Jacobson is leading a team of researchers to investigate this negative emissions technology．In a series of experimental systems that simulate natural conditions at the garden， researchers will test the effects from adding different types of rock to soils used to grow various crops．The soil additives will include a volcanic rock that chemically weathers faster than other rocks and minerals， potentially speeding up CO2 capture and storage． 32.What does Jacobson stress about Earth science in paragraph 2？（　　） A．Its scientific origin as a principle． B．Its present limitations in carbon capture． C．Its potential role in achieving climate goals． D．Its logical accuracy in temperature prediction． 33.What is mainly discussed in paragraph 3 concerning rocks？（　　） A．Their natural structures．　　 B．The reasons for their formation． C．The process of their weathering．　　 D．Their stable chemical composition． 34.What is the main function of the question in paragraph 4？（　　） A．To introduce the following solution．　B．To doubt the content of a magazine． C．To summarize the previous paragraph．D．To show the fast rate of climate change． 35.What is the best title for the text？（　　） A．Is Farming the Key to Carbon Capture？ B．Can Humans Stabilize the Climate of Earth？ C．What Is the Chemical Weathering of rocks？ D．How Do Carbon Emissions Speed up Global Warming？ 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。 　　（2026•河北省部分学校高二12月月考） A few years ago， I put my first tomato seed in a pot on my balcony （阳台）.36.　　 At that time， I was like many people， living fast with food delivery and my phone．I had no idea what “growing” really meant．This is the truth of modern life： We want quick results but forget that life needs time． 　　I watered the pot every day.37.　　 A tiny yellow－green sprout （新芽） came out．At that moment， I felt a warm light in my heart．It made me happy in a simple way．Psychology （心理学） tells us that caring for life and watching it grow can bring deep positive feelings． 　　38.　　 I started checking the weather．On sunny days I was afraid it might be thirsty； on rainy days I worried it might get too much water．This became a kind of “mindfulness”．I had to pay attention to the plant and its real needs．It pulled me away from stress and back to the present moment．I watched it grow from two leaves to four， from lying low to standing tall．Patience became something real， built day by day． 　　The most amazing moment was when the first small green tomato came out.39.　　 When I picked it， I felt happy．It tasted very sweet．The special taste came not only from freshness， but from being part of the whole process．When you know how much time and care a fruit needs to grow， you feel thankful instead of just taking it for granted． 　　Now my balcony is full of plants．Some grow well， while some do not．But when my hands touch the soil， I feel calm．These quiet plants show a simple truth： All growth needs time， and all harvests need effort.40.　　 A．It gave me a sense of failure． B．I felt sad when it rained heavily． C．After that， my mornings changed． D．One morning， a small crack opened in the soil． E．As time went by， it slowly turned the color of sunset． F．In this small green space， I found my connection to the earth． G．I did it mostly out of curiosity， not because I expected anything． 第三部分　语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 　　阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 　　（2026•安徽省江南十校高二12月联考） Darcy and Laura Clarke， the couple who run Bentley’s Burgers and Fries in West

hoped I would follow a more traditional path． It was in this climate of doubt that I met Mr Anderson， my art teacher． 　　Mr Anderson was different． His classroom was a safe place of creativity， filled with the smell of paint and possibility． While others saw my painting as a hobby， he saw potential． He would spend extra hours after school， not just teaching me techniques， but discussing the stories behind great artworks and the emotions they showed． He once told me，“True art isn’t about perfection； it’s about voice． It’s about having the courage to show the world how you see it．” 　　Encouraged by his words， I decided to pour my heart into a piece for the annual Provincial Youth Art Competition． I spent weeks on a painting titled The Crossroads， showing a young figure standing at a crossroads， with one path brightly lit and well－trodden， and the other， darker and overgrown， but leading towards a distant， shimmering （闪烁的） light． It was a metaphor （隐喻） for my own struggle． 　　The day the results were announced， I rushed to the school notice board， my heart pounding．I looked through the list of winners from the bottom up．Third place ．．．not me． Second place ．．．not me． First place ．．．still not my name． A weight settled on my chest． I failed． I wasn’t as good as I thought． Maybe my parents were right． I turned away， feeling the dream inside me seem to break into a million

the home of the future， the refrigerator will probably also be able to take note of all food supplies in the home and inform you when you’re running out， or even be programmed to contact the local supermarket to drop off the needed food supplies． 　　Future homes will also be very energy－saving． Microsoft， Google and others are now working on applications to help you see and track which tools use the most electricity， helping you save electricity and thus your daily expenses． 　　There will most likely also be systems in place for saving and reusing wash water and bath water， which will probably have to be the main origin of future water， so that both plants and people can still have clean water in the future， when water supplies are low． 第二部分

your view that scientists have many excellent qualities worth learning for young people．Among all the qualities， what I’ve learned most is perseverance． 　　Taking Doctor Yuan Longping as an example， he didn’t give up even when he met repeated failures．His story made me realize that success never comes easily； it needs constant effort and patience． 　　I’ve practiced this quality in my studies． Last term， I struggled with difficult math， felt frustrated and wanted to give up after trying wrong methods．Inspired by Yuan Longping’s story， I reviewed textbooks， turned to my teacher for advice， and finally made it．That experience made me understand how important perseverance is． 　　Looking forward to your reply． Yours， Li Hua 第二节 　　As I was about to leave， I felt a hand on my shoulder．It was Mr Anderson．“I know what you’re feeling，” he said softly， leading me away from the crowd．“But did you pour your heart into that painting？” I nodded tearfully．“Then it’s a success，” he declared．“The judges’ opinion was just one perspective，” he continued．“You must walk towards that shimmering light in your painting yourself， even if no one else sees it at first． This is just the beginning of finding your own unique voice．” His words， like a beacon， began to remove the shadows of my doubt． 　　Twenty years later， standing in my own art studio， that moment remains vivid． My painting The Crossroads now hangs on the wall as a reminder of the day when I almost gave up． The shimmering light I once painted now floods the room．Success， I’ve learned， isn’t defined by a single award but by the resilience to keep creating．I often think of Mr Anderson， the teacher who saw the light in my work when I myself could not． His belief became the foundation upon which I built my career． 12 / 12
