But one 27-year-old man who grew up in Sydney embarked on a four-year hike that would see him walk 40,000 km across 30 countries and four continents. And the reason? The trip will raise much-needed money for the treatment and prevention of blindness across the world. He chose the Fred Hollows Foundation because he wanted to raise money for a charity that worked in the countries he was travelling through. “I wanted to give back to the communities I was passing through,” Mr Campbell said. Mr Campbell started his journey from the Opera House in February and made his way through western Sydney to Penrith and onto the Blue Mountains. “I love the lifestyle. I get nice views,” he said. Mr Campbell said he did not get blisters (水疱) because he was an experienced walker. He loves long-distance hiking and has already completed the 800 km Colorado Road, and the 1,600 km Great Himalaya Road. “I wanted to do something bigger than I had done before,” Mr Campbell said. “I was looking for different long-distance hiking roads on my global trip and I have to plan when to go to different countries in the best seasons.” The schedule will see him walk for four years but he will adjust (调整) if he gets injured, meets bad weather or “gets tired of walking”. Mr Campbell said he was still unsure how he would travel between continents but he would love to go by boat rather than by plane. 1.What do the underlined words “embarked on” mean in paragraph 1? A. Finished. B. Started. C. Missed. D. Imagined. 2.Why did Mr Campbell take this four-year trip? A. To physically improve himself. B. To enjoy long-distance hiking. C. To raise money for those in need.

Independent and peace-loving. 主题语境02 人与社会-科学与技术 （25-26高二上·湖南常德汉寿县第一中学-11月·期中）Medha Gupta sometimes felt worried making the 20-minute walk from the corner where the school bus dropped her off to her home in Herndon, Virginia-especially during the colder months in winter. Her mother, Divya Gupta had a suggestion: write an app. She was half-kidding, but Medha took the challenge seriously. So she went to work. The result was Safe Travel, an app designed by Medha to help walkers feel more secure when travelling alone. Using the iPhone, a person can programme it to send a warning to someone he or she trusts if he or she fails to arrive at a destination within a certain time. It was the first IOS app that Medha had created. While she didn’t think much would come from the project, her effort caught the eye of judges for the annual Congressional App Challenge, who selected her as the winner for Virginia’s 10th District. The App Challenge is designed to encourage students to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and maths by experimenting with coding (编码) and computer science. Winning students are invited to attend a reception on Capitol Hill in April and also received $ 250 in Amazon Web Service credits. Medha said it took her about 40 hours to design, programme and test the app. As for her next pp, Medha’s not certain. She temporarily (暂时) has her app-development tasks on hold because she’s busy teaching herself AI to help deal with wrong words on Facebook. Yes, she knows that they are teams of engineers possibly doing the same thing. But she figures it can’t hurt her own part, too. “If we see something wrong with the world, we should do something about it,” she said. “After all, the only one stopping us from doing something is ourselves.” 1.What did Medha Gupta’s mother advise her to do? A. Develop an app. B. Take a bus. C. Travel with others. D. Walk to school. 2.What does the underlined word “secure” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fascinating. B. Safe. C. Trusty. D. Cheerful. 3.How are the students encouraged by the App Challenge to consider their careers? A. By receiving praise for their achievements. B. By meeting famous scientists and professors. C. By experimenting with coding and computer science. D. By attending lectures about science and technology. 4.What message does Medha seem to express in the last paragraph? A. Never too old to learn. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Always be creative in life. D. AI leads to a better future. 主题语境03 人与自我-做人与做事 （25-26高二上·湖南平高教育集团·期中）Yasmin Alkashef grew up in Egypt learning English and Arabic. From a very young age, she knew she loved languages. In the fourth grade, she began learning French. Her love for languages continued into high school, where she began training to be a translator. Now she interprets and translates for people professionally. Alkashef has been a translator for 20 years. She’s a member of the American Translators Association board of directors and a certified Arabic-English translator, a certified court interpreter, and a conference interpreter. Though the jobs have similarities, translators work with written material while interpreters work with spoken language. Confidence is crucial to both jobs. Most interpreters and translators are freelancers (自由职业者), which means they’re not employed as staff for an organization or a company. Being a freelancer means doing a variety of work for a variety of clients. Alkashef enjoys this aspect of her job. “It’s always fun, because every week is different, and the topics are always different,” she says. “One day, you are translating a document about clean water, and the next day, you are in court, interpreting a case. The following day, you’re at a conference about international peace. You learn a lot, because you get to get in touch with so many different people.” Alkashef has interpreted at court cases and film festivals, and at political events with people such as presidents and kings. The work can be exciting and attractive, but also challenging and sad. “Interpreters speak in the first person,” Alkashef says. “When they say something sad or painful, their subconscious does not understand that it is somebody else’s story. So interpreters come home with this burden, and they have to do self-care to take care of their mental health.” Alkashef is most grateful that through her work, she’s able to help others. “It’s more than just the words. The interpreter brings an understanding of the cultures, of history, and of a lot of things,” she says. Her work has enriched her life in many ways, and she tries to impart what she learns to those around her. 1.What distinguishes translators from interpreters according to the text? A. Their wage level. B. Their working time. C. The client type they serve. D. The medium they use. 2.Why does Alkashef enjoy being a freelancer? A. Because of diverse tasks. B. Because of stable income. C. Because of predictable routine. D. Because of fewer responsibilities. 3.What challenge do interpreters face mentally according to Alkashef? A. Language barriers. B. Emotional stress. C. Time management. D. Technical difficulties. 4.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the last paragraph? A. To highlight the impact of Alkashef’s work. B. To compare Alkashef’s work with others’. C. To emphasize the importance of words of gratitude. D. To present Alkashef’s ability to understand others. 主题语境04 人与自我-生活与学习 Passage 1 （25-26高二上·湖南多校联盟·期中）Sudaria, who grew up in Southern California, fell in love with Ravenswood as a Stanford senior volunteering with Barrio Assistance, a student-run tutoring program. She applied for a job as a first-grade teacher in Ravenswood as soon as she graduated, in 1998. She’s been in the district ever since, working as a teacher, vice principal, principal, and director of human resources and student services. She was appointed to the permanent superintendent (总监) in 2020 by the board, facing a seven-figure budget shortage and declining enrollment (入学). Then she made the difficult decision to close two of the district’s five elementary schools. She didn’t do it alone.“I held 29 community meetings,” she says. At those meetings, she invited parents and anyone else interested in Ravenswood’s future to listen as she described the challenges: Student enrollment had declined from 5,085 in 1998 to 2,048 in 2019 (last year it was 1,449), and insufficient funding was spread too thin. Then she asked people to weigh in. One day last year, Sudaria got word that a Ravenswood middle schooler had completed a core academic program at school. “I’m like, ‘What program? That’s fantastic!’” But when she found out, her heart sank. It was a foundational literacy (读写能力) program. “That’s kindergarten through second grade material,” she says. The student had been unable to sound out words like cat and dog. In the summer of 2023, she launched the Ravenswood Promise, a listening tour and cooperative process for creating a new strategic plan. The trip to Lindsay came that winter, and in the months that followed, a plan took shape around what Sudaria calls the three rocks: literacy, teacher talent, and attendance — each foundational to student learning. Fixing these areas, she believes, will enable the district to accomplish its central goal: to improve student academic outcomes. 1.What made Sudaria decide to work in Ravenswood at first? A. The high salary. B. Her volunteer experience. C. The invitation from the school. D. Her desire to govern the school. 2.What does the underlined phrase “weigh in” mean in paragraph 3? A. Keep silent. B. Give opinions. C. Lose weight. D. Make a phone call. 3.What can we infer from the story of the Ravenswood’s middle schooler? A. The students there have weak literacy skills. B. The school education there is very successful. C. The literacy program is popular among students. D. The middle schooler’s achievement excited Sudaria. 4.What is Sudaria’s main goal for the school district? A. To cut more school budgets. B. To increase school enrollment. C. To build more elementary schools. D. To enhance students’ academic performances. Passage 2 （25-26高二上·湖南湘潭县第一中学·期中）When Jula’s dad passed away, he left her something special — his massive collection of nearly 10,000 vinyl records (黑胶唱片) packed with all kinds of music, from opera to rock to new wave. At first, it felt overwhelming, but one day, she decided to pick a few albums and give them a listen. A friend suggested she share her journey online, so she started posting videos of her reactions. To her surprise, her social media account quickly gained over 322,000 followers. Jula’s dad, Richard, had loved music all his life. He played instruments, wrote songs, and started collecting records when he was just five years old. Growing up, Jula remembers their home always being filled with music — he would play the Monkeys, the Archies, and Frank Sinatra. When he passed away, his records became one of the few physical things Jula had left of him. She knew she couldn’t let them go. Listening to these albums has been like rediscovering her dad’s world. She doesn’t research them beforehand — she just plays them and reacts. That’s how she found unexpected favorites like Mozart in the Seventies. Of course, there have been funny moments too, like when she mispronounced David Byrne from Talking Heads as David By-ron! But her project is about more than just music. Many followers comment that her videos help them deal with their own sorrow, reminding them of loved ones they’ve lost. Others love sharing their memories, like buying a Lou Reed album when it first came out or listening to the Cars in high school. Through this journey, Jula has learned to appreciate physical music. Holding a record, seeing the scratches her dad made, and knowing they listened to the same sounds makes her feel closer to him. She wonders, “What will future generations have to remember us by? Just a streaming (流媒体) library?” For Jula, these records are more than just music. They’re pieces of her dad’s life — and now, a part of hers too. 1.Why did Jula decide to start sharing videos of reactions online? A. To fulfill her father’s last wish. B.

Streaming preserves memories better. B. Physical records convey precious memories. C. Future generations prefer online collections. D. Digital records are more about interpersonal things. 主题语境01 人与社会-历史、社会与文化 Passage 1 （25-26高二上·湖南湘一名校·期中）In 2010, physical therapist (治疗师) Mary Jesse volunteered in Haiti after a deadly earthquake. At a hospital in Milot, she met a 2-year-old boy trapped under broken stones for five days. He had lost his family and suffered serious injuries. Ten months later, while most survivors had returned home, the little kid remained. Nurses cared for him lovingly, placing a sign by his bed: “Do not pick me up” to encourage him to walk on his own. Mary and her husband, Nathan, first hoped to arrange medical treatment for the boy in the U. S., but as they bonded with him, their feelings grew deeper. They decided to adopt (收养) him. In 2013, the child — now named Jamesly Jesse — joined their family in Moweaqua, Illinois, at age four. He learned English, made friends, and grew well in his supportive community. Known for his kindness and determination, he embraced (拥抱) his new life with joy and purpose quickly. Inspired by school activities, Jamesly joined the Boy Scouts and discovered a passion for service and outdoor leadership. In high school, he achieved the rank of Eagle Scout — the program’s highest honor. Yet he wanted more than personal achievement. Remembering the Haitian hospital that once saved him, Jamesly felt a strong calling to reciprocate. In October 2023, he organised a large food-pack event at his school gym. Over 400 volunteers — including teachers, doctors, families, and children — came together to pack meals for Haiti. The effort became one of the town’s biggest youth-led humanitarian (人道主义) projects. The supplies provided important support to the struggling hospital. Now planning to study food systems and hunger relief in college, Jamesly remains humble. He focuses on helping others, not seeking praise.

Passage 2 （25-26高二上·湖南多校联考·期中）Yang Chen-Ning, one of the most influential physicists of the 20th century and the first Chinese scientist to win a Nobel Prize, died in Beijing at the age of 103. Yang was born in Hefei, Anhui Province, in 1922. His father, Yang Wu-Chih, was a mathematics professor at Tsinghua University. The young Yang grew up on the Tsinghua campus, immersed in books and ideas that would shape his future. In 1957, Yang and fellow theoretical physicist Lee Tsung-Dao were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for their parity violation theory (宇称不守恒定律). The finding overturned one of physics’ long-held assumptions and reshaped our understanding of nature’s laws. The Nobel committee praised“their profound investigation… which has led to important discoveries regarding the elementary particles”. Beyond his technical achievements, Yang’s scientific journey was guided by a profound sense of the aesthetic (美学) of thought. In his essay collection, he reflected on the British physicist Paul Dirac, whose ideas, Yang wrote, were“ captivating.” He described Dirac’s writings as“ clear as autumn water, unstained by dust,” with not a trace of waste. FollowingDirac’s reasoning, he said, always felt marvellous (非凡的), leading to insights no one could have imagined beforehand. To Yang, the Dirac equation was nothing short of a revelation—an expression of both scientific precision and poetic beauty. After decades in the United States, Yang began visiting China more frequently in the 1990s.In 1999, he accepted a professorship at Tsinghua University, where he helped establish the Institute for Advanced Study and raised funds to support young scientists. Even in his eighties and nineties, Yang continued to teach undergraduates and take part in research. Colleagues remember his authority and deep curiosity. He believed education was not only about passing on knowledge, but about inspiring wonder—the same sense of wonder that had driven his own life’s work. 1.For what was Yang awarded the Nobel Prize? A. A remarkable discovery. B. A practical invention. C. A profound investigation. D. A long- held assumption. 2.What did Yang think of Paul Dirac’s equation? A. Clear yet time- consuming. B. Abstract yet inspiring. C. Exact and beautiful. D. Complex yet insightful. 3.What did Yang believe was an important part of education? A. Encouraging students to challenge authority. B. Motivating students to learn actively. C. Cultivating students’ problem- solving abilities. D. Training students to work independently. 4.What can be a suitable title for the text? A. secrets Behind the Nobel Prize B. A Scientist’s Devotion to His Motherland C. Brilliant Discovery of Physics D. A Physicist of Beauty and Curiosity Passage 3 （25-26高二上·湖南省长沙市天心区长沙市明德中学·期中）Fred Perry was a legendary English tennis player, known for his remarkable achievements on the court. Born in 1909 in Stockport, Cheshire, Perry grew up in a working-class family. Fred’s early life was marked by frequent moves, but it was in Ealing, London, that he attended Ealing Grammar School and began to show his exceptional talent in both tennis and table tennis. Perry’s natural ability and quick reactions made him a strong opponent (对手). In 1929, he won the world table tennis championship in Budapest. After this victory, he focused only on tennis, using the skills he had developed in table tennis to excel in his new sport. He had great strength and was known for his powerful forehand.

Every week, they taught a group of 8-to-14-year- olds life skills like how to cook and sew (缝制). “Loneliness is something that seniors are challenged with, and they love having younger people around them,” said Zainab Hussain, a program manager at Olive Community Services, a nonprofit that hosted the camp to bring teens and elderly adults together. In the camp, a small room was filled with energy as the kids chatted and chewed on snacks. Some grandmas were around and watched, content to just be around the youngsters. Haqiqah Abdul Rahim, one of the grandmas serving as the instructor for sewing, said many kids don’t learn these skills at school, so they’re filling in a gap. She stood in front of the room at the start of the activity, holding up various tools and explaining what they were. Rahim also didn’t get to spend a lot of time with her grandchildren because they didn’t live close. “It is heartwarming to be able to interact with those who love being around you,” Rahim said. The summer camp was held in partnership with the Golden Connections Club, started by14-year-old high school student Leena Albinali. She lived with her grandma but realized other students didn't have the same opportunity to spend as much time with their grandparents. She also learned about ageism (年龄歧视) and other challenges faced by senior adults in one of her classes. “They treat us like we’re their grandchildren,” Albinali said.“ We share what we know about artificial intelligence and its impact on our lives, and the elders share their life stories and advice. One of the most important things they’ve shared with me is to live in the moment, something that’s taken on new meaning for me — The people we have right now are not going to be with us forever.” 1.What is the purpose of the summer camp? A. To teach kids life skills. B. To help seniors fight loneliness. C. To connect generations. D. To educate kids to respect seniors. 2.How does Rahim find her job of teaching sewing in the camp? A.

If you don’t share a trip, did it even happen? Though I felt more present offline, I still imagine that ideal carousel (动态); a blurry selfie with my husband, posed kids’ photo, and overhead shot of local food. I know that craving the high of posting may not be cool, but I desperately miss sharing travel photos. In them, I am the person I want to be: carefree and adventurous. Sharing makes it so, somehow. However, one person’s vacation photos are another person’s existential crisis. Following a friend’s voyage twisted my mind—forgetting my seasickness, homesickness, and empty wallet. This isn’t new. Years ago, stunning Bali blogs tricked me into my first overseas trip—reality never matched those glowing screens. Later, I met my husband in Barcelona. I didn’t take a single photo that night, wanting to be unbothered, but mostly because I was having too much fun. My brightest moments? Often lens-free. Now, as a parent, I try to be in the moment, but my eyes drift to other parents twisting themselves for the perfect shot. I worry I’m missing some parental duty, so I pick up my phone and open the camera app. On our recent vacation to London, I decided to take photos, wrestling with portrait mode and begging the children to smile. My effort was rewarded with 187 photos. Each night, I looked through them and marveled at the best of my son and daughter. Armed with these images, I tried making a private album on my phone and uploading to a family digital frame. Yet nothing felt the same as sharing on the socials. Then it came to me I could use a physical photo album instead. I laid out the book online, and it arrived a few days ago. It is something I can hold in my hands, something to hold on to. I’m putting it on my coffee table, where my friends are sure to see it. 1.Why does the author badly want to share travel photos on social media? A. To present an idealized self. B.

Advanced equipment and skills. B. Social pressure and anxiety. C. Request of the kids. D. Strong family ties. 4.What did the author choose to do at last? A. Preserve memories in a physical photo album. B. Invite friends to appreciate photos online. C. Chase perfect images in a virtual world. D.

During his service with Hertfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, Reqs attended more than 500 fires. He found vital evidence for a police investigation after a fire in Leicester killed five people when 26 liters of petrol caught fire in the room below a shop. He also helped to save one of his own kind, locating a painful dog that had been under ruins for two days after a house exploded in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex.

Reqs’s handler, Watch Commander Nikki Harvey, said: “He is an amazing dog who as well as his devotion to duty and service within the fire service is also a loving member of our family. He’s helped me through many tough times, at work and personally. ” “Together we’ve attended some dangerous scenes, but he’s the one who pulls me through and we always had a hug at the end of a bad day. ” She added that her former co-workers was now “enjoying every minute” of retirement.

Born in Toulouse, Vincent has been living in southwest China for more than a decade. With the influence of French artists Jean Dunand and Gaston Suisse, his journey to unravel the secrets of Chinese lacquerware and his fascination for lacquer art started. “I studied their artworks and often wondered why they used Chinese lacquer. In those days, lacquer could not be found in France,” said the artist. Native to Asia, lacquer trees are planted and tapped for their liquid. It is almost impossible to find lacquer trees in Europe. So, instead of continually transporting lacquer back to France, Vincent chose to send himself to China. Having explored his connections with lacquer over the years, the artist also learned a range of techniques, which he integrated into his own artworks. To dive deep into the art of lacquerware, Vincent traveled to Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture (自治州) in Sichuan Province, where lacquer craftsmanship is famous. In fact, he actually met two lacquerware craftsmen, who taught him almost everything they knew. “I used to know about lacquerware of Yi just by looking at it. But I had never seen the Yi people before. I have never heard their language. I've never seen their villages. It's only when I came here that I felt the power of their culture,” said Vincent. This field trip gave the artist new inspiration for his exhibition. After seeing Vincent's exhibition, Liu Guanzhong, a professor at the School of Fine Arts of Tsinghua University said, “What he presents is China in his eyes. Vincent has explored a path: the ideas of a modern artist, but rooting the ancient skills in modern life. He finds new soil for an old seed to bloom into a new flower.” 1.What does the underlined word “unravel” mean in paragraph 2? A. Ignore. B. Discover. C. Create. D. Preserve. 2.Why did Vincent come to China? A. To visit the lacquerware exhibition. B. To study Chinese traditional art. C. To get access to lacquer more easily. D. To meet with local lacquerware craftsmen. 3.How did Vincent know about Yi lacquerware before visiting Liangshan? A. By observing Yi lacquerware visually. B. Through artworks of Jean Dunand and Gaston Suisse. C. By studying historical documents in France. D. From lectures by Tsinghua University professors. 4.What would Liu Guanzhong agree with about the exhibition? A. It represented idealism. B. It featured modern art. C. It explored the roots of art. D. It demonstrated innovation. 主题语境02 人与社会-社会服务与人际沟通 （25-26高二上·湖南长沙雅礼中学-11月·期中）Shirley Raines makes the homeless community in Los Angeles’s skid row (贫民窟) neighborhood feel human. She is the founder of Beauty 2 The Streetz, a nonprofit organization that provides free food, clothing, haircuts, and make-up services for the homeless. And Shirley is now the CNN Hero of the Year! In 1990, Raines’ 2-year-old son Demetrius passed away from accidental poisoning while at his grandma's house. This event caused a lot of pain for Shirley Raines. The pain lasted for many years. And she did not know what to do about it. She struggled to understand what her purpose was in life. Until one day six years ago, Shirley visited the skid row with a friend from church who asked her to volunteer. She met a lot of homeless people and realized how much help they needed, not just in finding a home, but in finding themselves and their own worth and beauty. Shirley started to volunteer every Saturday. As she got to know the homeless, they often praised her for her make-up, hair, and style. She started to offer to “make up” the homeless. They loved it, she loved it, they loved her and she loved them. She found purpose. So she started an outdoor beauty salon to serve the homeless, which took most of her spare time. Raines started sharing her efforts on Instagram with photos and even livestreaming (网络直播) some of her events. Things took off. She formed her nonprofit organization, Beauty 2 The Streetz, and her followers quickly began donating money or time to expand Shirley’s impact. Her Instagram followers grew to over 200,000 people, including many beauty professionals such as licensed hairstylists, barbers, make-up artists. Many of them regularly donate money to keep the services rolling. Others donate their time to help Shirley serve the homeless.

For over a decade, 42-year-old Dradul has devoted himself to guarding this precious ecosystem. A typical workday for Dradul begins with a 10-kilometer motorcycle patrol (巡逻) by mid-morning, following a fixed route around the lake. His bag is always stocked with essentials: binoculars (双筒望远镜) to scan for waterbirds, a notebook to record wildlife species, wildlife numbers, weather, and water levels, and garbage bags to collect rubbish. He also carries a “life-saving kit” — zanba, drinking water, a thick coat, a sun mask, and simple tools for helping injured animals. One notable rescue saw him and his colleagues, along with local officials, free a trapped wild Yak (牦牛); they tied ropes around its horns and pulled inch by inch; then they waited 30 minutes to ensure the animal could walk and eat grass again. Dradul is part of a 90- guardian team responsible for nearly 99,000 hectares of the wetland, about 69,000 hectares of it being the lake. Their work — patrolling, recording, rescuing animals, and reminding tourists not to throw rubbish everywhere or damage grasslands — has, increased biodiversity: the wetland now hosts 411 plant species and 157vertebrates (脊椎动物). For Dradul, this role is life- changing. Before 2014, he moved between unstable short- term jobs; now, he earns a regular 2,000 yuan monthly and feels proud to protect the lake. “It’s not just work,” he says. “It’s keeping the lake clean for my children and grandchildren.” Yet challenges continue: climate change melts (融化) glaciers and changes shorelines. Some tourists break rules, and remote areas can’t be patrolled daily. Dradul hopes for drones (无人机) to aid patrols and more young people to join. “With sincere hearts and hard work,” he says, “Mapam Yumco Lake will never grow old.” 1.Why is Mapam Yumco Lake called “Mother of Rivers”? A. It is the world’s highest freshwater lake. B. It supports biodiversity beyond the Himalayas. C. Its water supplies the headwaters of major rivers. D. It is guarded by a professional team of 90 people. 2.What does the underlined word “stocked” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Fixed. B. Equipped. C. Connected. D. Decorated. 3.How does Dradul view his role? A. As only a source of regular income. B. As a significant lifelong duty. C. As a challenging pressure. D. As a short-time job. 4.What’s the best title for the text? A. A Lake in Xizang B. Dradul’s Daily Hobbies C. Challenges of Protecting Lakes D.

But one 27-year-old man who grew up in Sydney embarked on a four-year hike that would see him walk 40,000 km across 30 countries and four continents. And the reason? The trip will raise much-needed money for the treatment and prevention of blindness across the world. He chose the Fred Hollows Foundation because he wanted to raise money for a charity that worked in the countries he was travelling through. “I wanted to give back to the communities I was passing through,” Mr Campbell said. Mr Campbell started his journey from the Opera House in February and made his way through western Sydney to Penrith and onto the Blue Mountains. “I love the lifestyle. I get nice views,” he said. Mr Campbell said he did not get blisters (水疱) because he was an experienced walker. He loves long-distance hiking and has already completed the 800 km Colorado Road, and the 1,600 km Great Himalaya Road. “I wanted to do something bigger than I had done before,” Mr Campbell said. “I was looking for different long-distance hiking roads on my global trip and I have to plan when to go to different countries in the best seasons.” The schedule will see him walk for four years but he will adjust (调整) if he gets injured, meets bad weather or “gets tired of walking”. Mr Campbell said he was still unsure how he would travel between continents but he would love to go by boat rather than by plane. 1.What do the underlined words “embarked on” mean in paragraph 1? A. Finished. B. Started. C. Missed. D. Imagined. 2.Why did Mr Campbell take this four-year trip? A. To physically improve himself. B. To enjoy long-distance hiking. C. To raise money for those in need. D. To experience different cultures. 3.What do we know about Mr Campbell’s travel plan? A. He plans to travel across oceans by plane. B. He won’t change his travel plans even in an emergency. C. He wants to get better trained to be an experienced hiker. D. He plans to travel in the proper country in the right season. 4.Which of the following words can best describe Mr Campbell? A. Determined and caring. B. Thoughtful and calm. C. Humorous and helpful. D. Independent and peace-loving. 【答案】1. B　2. C　3. D　4.

Her mother, Divya Gupta had a suggestion: write an app. She was half-kidding, but Medha took the challenge seriously. So she went to work. The result was Safe Travel, an app designed by Medha to help walkers feel more secure when travelling alone. Using the iPhone, a person can programme it to send a warning to someone he or she trusts if he or she fails to arrive at a destination within a certain time. It was the first IOS app that Medha had created. While she didn’t think much would come from the project, her effort caught the eye of judges for the annual Congressional App Challenge, who selected her as the winner for Virginia’s 10th District. The App Challenge is designed to encourage students to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and maths by experimenting with coding (编码) and computer science. Winning students are invited to attend a reception on Capitol Hill in April and also received $ 250 in Amazon Web Service credits. Medha said it took her about 40 hours to design, programme and test the app. As for her next pp, Medha’s not certain. She temporarily (暂时) has her app-development tasks on hold because she’s busy teaching herself AI to help deal with wrong words on Facebook. Yes, she knows that they are teams of engineers possibly doing the same thing. But she figures it can’t hurt her own part, too. “If we see something wrong with the world, we should do something about it,” she said. “After all, the only one stopping us from doing something is ourselves.” 1.What did Medha Gupta’s mother advise her to do? A. Develop an app. B. Take a bus. C. Travel with others. D. Walk to school. 2.What does the underlined word “secure” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Fascinating. B. Safe. C. Trusty. D. Cheerful. 3.How are the students encouraged by the App Challenge to consider their careers? A. By receiving praise for their achievements. B. By meeting famous scientists and professors. C. By experimenting with coding and computer science. D. By attending lectures about science and technology. 4.What message does Medha seem to express in the last paragraph? A. Never too old to learn. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Always be creative in life. D. AI leads to a better future. 【答案】1. A　2. B　3. C　4. C 【解析】【导语】 这是一篇新闻报道，主要讲述了Medha Gupta设计开发“Safe Travel”应用并赢得挑战赛的故事，以及她对于通过技术手段解决社会问题的积极态度。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Her mother, Divya Gupta had a suggestion: write an app.(她的母亲Divya Gupta给了她一个建议：写一个应用程序。)”可知，Medha Gupta的母亲建议她开发一个应用程序。故选A。 (2)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Using the iPhone, a person can programme it to send a warning to someone he or she trusts if he or she fails to arrive at a destination within a certain time.(通过使用iPhone，一个人可以将其设置为，如果自己在一定时间内未能到达目的地，就向一个他/她信任的人发送警告信息。)”可知，划线词所在句子表示“结果是，Medha设计了一款名为Safe Travel的应用程序，旨在帮助独行者在旅行时感到更加安全”，划线词secure的意思是“安全的”，和safe意思相近。故选B。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The App Challenge is designed to encourage students to consider careers in science, technology, engineering, and maths by experimenting with coding (编码) and computer science.(App Challenge旨在通过编码和计算机科学实践，鼓励学生考虑从事科学、技术、工程和数学领域的职业。)”可知，App Challenge是通过让学生进行编程和计算机科学实验鼓励学生考虑自己的职业发展的。故选C。 (4)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““If we see something wrong with the world, we should do something about it,” she said. “After all, the only one stopping us from doing something is ourselves.”(“如果我们发现世界上有不对劲的地方，我们就应该做些什么来改变它，”她说。“毕竟，唯一阻止我们去做事的人就是我们自己。”)”可知，在最后一段中Medha表达了在生活中应该始终保持创造性。故选C。 主题语境03 人与自我-做人与做事 （25-26高二上·湖南平高教育集团·期中）Yasmin Alkashef grew up in Egypt learning English and Arabic. From a very young age, she knew she loved languages. In the fourth grade, she began learning French. Her love for languages continued into high school, where she began training to be a translator. Now she interprets and translates for people professionally. Alkashef has been a translator for 20 years. She’s a member of the American Translators Association board of directors and a certified Arabic-English translator, a certified court interpreter, and a conference interpreter. Though the jobs have similarities, translators work with written material while interpreters work with spoken language. Confidence is crucial to both jobs. Most interpreters and translators are freelancers (自由职业者), which means they’re not employed as staff for an organization or a company. Being a freelancer means doing a variety of work for a variety of clients. Alkashef enjoys this aspect of her job. “It’s always fun, because every week is different, and the topics are always different,” she says. “One day, you are translating a document about clean water, and the next day, you are in court, interpreting a case. The following day, you’re at a conference about international peace. You learn a lot, because you get to get in touch with so many different people.” Alkashef has interpreted at court cases and film festivals, and at political events with people such as presidents and kings. The work can be exciting and attractive, but also challenging and sad. “Interpreters speak in the first person,” Alkashef says. “When they say something sad or painful, their subconscious does not understand that it is somebody else’s story. So interpreters come home with this burden, and they have to do self-care to take care of their mental health.” Alkashef is most grateful that through her work, she’s able to help others. “It’s more than just the words. The interpreter brings an understanding of the cultures, of history, and of a lot of things,” she says. Her work has enriched her life in many ways, and she tries to impart what she learns to those around her. 1.What distinguishes translators from interpreters according to the text? A. Their wage level. B. Their working time. C. The client type they serve. D. The medium they use. 2.Why does Alkashef enjoy being a freelancer? A. Because of diverse tasks. B. Because of stable income. C. Because of predictable routine. D. Because of fewer responsibilities. 3.What challenge do interpreters face mentally according to Alkashef? A. Language barriers. B. Emotional stress. C. Time management. D. Technical difficulties. 4.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the last paragraph? A. To highlight the impact of Alkashef’s work. B. To compare Alkashef’s work with others’. C. To emphasize the importance of words of gratitude. D. To present Alkashef’s ability to understand others. 【答案】1. D　2. A　3. B　4. A 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述翻译家亚斯明·阿尔卡舍夫的语言学习经历、翻译与口译工作的区别、自由职业的特点及工作中的挑战与收获。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Though the jobs have similarities, translators work with written material while interpreters work with spoken language (尽管这两份工作有相似之处，翻译员处理书面材料，而口译员处理口语)”可知，翻译员和口译员的区别在于使用的媒介不同。故选D项。 (2)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It’s always fun, because every week is different, and the topics are always different (这总是很有趣，因为每周都不一样，话题也总是不同)”和后文列举的不同领域工作内容可知，阿尔卡舍夫喜欢自由职业是因为工作任务多样。故选A项。 (3)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“When they say something sad or painful, their subconscious does not understand that it is somebody else’s story. So interpreters come home with this burden, and they have to do self-care to take care of their mental health (当口译员说出悲伤或痛苦的内容时，他们的潜意识并不会意识到那是别人的经历。因此，口译员会带着这份负担回家，他们必须做好自我关怀，以维护自己的心理健康。)”可知，口译员面临的心理挑战是情感压力。故选B项。 (4)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Alkashef is most grateful that through her work, she’s able to help others. “It’s more than just the words. The interpreter brings an understanding of the cultures, of history, and of a lot of things,” she says. Her work has enriched her life in many ways, and she tries to impart what she learns to those around her.(阿尔卡舍夫最感恩的是，通过这份工作，她能够帮助他人。“这不仅仅是语言转换那么简单。口译员还能带来对文化、历史以及诸多事物的理解，” 她说。她的工作在许多方面丰富了自己的人生，而她也努力将学到的东西传递给身边的人)”可知，最后一段提到阿尔卡舍夫通过工作帮助他人，其工作不仅是语言转换，还包含文化、历史的理解传递，且丰富了自己的人生。目的是突出她工作带来的影响。故选A项。 主题语境04 人与自我-生活与学习 Passage 1 （25-26高二上·湖南多校联盟·期中）Sudaria, who grew up in Southern California, fell in love with Ravenswood as a Stanford senior volunteering with Barrio Assistance, a student-run tutoring program. She applied for a job as a first-grade teacher in Ravenswood as soon as she graduated, in 1998. She’s been in the district ever since, working as a teacher, vice principal, principal, and director of human resources and student services. She was appointed to the permanent superintendent (总监) in 2020 by the board, facing a seven-figure budget shortage and declining enrollment (入学). Then she made the difficult decision to close two of the district’s five elementary schools. She didn’t do it alone.“I held 29 community meetings,” she says. At those meetings, she invited parents and anyone else interested in Ravenswood’s future to listen as she described the challenges: Student enrollment had declined from 5,085 in 1998 to 2,048 in 2019 (last year it was 1,449), and insufficient funding was spread too thin. Then she asked people to weigh in. One day last year, Sudaria got word that a Ravenswood middle schooler had completed a core academic program at school. “I’m like, ‘What program? That’s fantastic!’” But when she found out, her heart sank. It was a foundational literacy (读写能力) program. “That’s kindergarten through second grade material,” she says. The student had been unable to sound out words like cat and dog. In the summer of 2023, she launched the Ravenswood Promise, a listening tour and cooperative process for creating a new strategic plan. The trip to Lindsay came that winter, and in the months that followed, a plan took shape around what Sudaria calls the three rocks: literacy, teacher talent, and attendance — each foundational to student learning. Fixing these areas, she believes, will enable the district to accomplish its central goal: to improve student academic outcomes. 1.What made Sudaria decide to work in Ravenswood at first? A. The high salary. B. Her volunteer experience. C. The invitation from the school. D. Her desire to govern the school. 2.What does the underlined phrase “weigh in” mean in paragraph 3? A. Keep silent. B. Give opinions. C. Lose weight. D. Make a phone call. 3.What can we infer from the story of the Ravenswood’s middle schooler? A. The students there have weak literacy skills. B. The school education there is very successful. C. The literacy program is popular among students. D. The middle schooler’s achievement excited Sudaria. 4.What is Sudaria’s main goal for the school district? A. To cut more school budgets. B. To increase school enrollment. C. To build more elementary schools. D. To enhance students’ academic performances. 【答案】1. B　2. B　3. A　4. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Sudaria在Ravenswood学区的工作经历、面临的挑战以及她为改善学区教育状况所采取的措施和目标。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Sudaria, who grew up in Southern California, fell in love with Ravenswood as a Stanford senior volunteering with Barrio Assistance, a student-run tutoring program. She applied for a job as a first-grade teacher in Ravenswood as soon as she graduated, in 1998.(Sudaria在南加州长大，作为斯坦福大学大四学生，她爱上了拉文斯伍德，当时她正在一个学生运营的辅导项目“Barrio Assistance”做志愿者。1998年，她一毕业就申请了拉文斯伍德小学一年级教师的工作)”可知，Sudaria在Barrio Assistance做志愿者的经历让她爱上了拉文斯伍德，是Sudaria最初决定在拉文斯伍德工作的原因。故选B。 (2)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“At those meetings, she invited parents and anyone else interested in Ravenswood’s future to listen as she described the challenges: Student enrollment had declined from 5,085 in 1998 to 2,048 in 2019 (last year it was 1,449), and insufficient funding was spread too thin. Then she asked people to weigh in.(在那些会议上，她邀请了家长和其他任何对拉文斯伍德未来感兴趣的人来听她描述挑战：学生入学人数从1998年的5085人下降到2019年的2048人（去年为1449人），资金不足且分配过于分散。然后她请人们weigh in)”可知，苏达里亚在会议上描述了学区面临的挑战后，她请人们发表意见，weigh in意思是“发表意见”，与Give opinions意思相近。故选B。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段中“One day last year, Sudaria got word that a Ravenswood middle schooler had completed a core academic program at school. “I’m like, ‘What program? That’s fantastic!’” But when she found out, her heart sank. It was a foundational literacy (读写能力) program. “That’s kindergarten through second grade material,” she says. The student had been unable to sound out words like cat and dog.(去年的一天，Sudaria得知拉文斯伍德的一名中学生完成了学校的一个核心学术课程。“我想，‘什么课程？太棒了！’”但当她发现后，她的心沉了下来。这是一个基础读写能力课程。“那是幼儿园到二年级的材料，”她说。这个学生无法读出像猫和狗这样的单词)”可知，拉文斯伍德的一名中学生完成的是一个基础读写能力课程，而这个课程的内容是幼儿园到二年级的，这个学生甚至无法读出像猫和狗这样的简单单词，由此可推知，那里的学生读写能力较弱。故选A。 (4)题解析： 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Fixing these areas, she believes, will enable the district to accomplish its central goal: to improve student academic outcomes.(她认为，解决这些问题将使该学区能够实现其核心目标：提高学生的学习成绩)”可知，Sudaria对该学区的主要目标是提高学生的学习成绩。故选D。 Passage 2 （25-26高二上·湖南湘潭县第一中学·期中）When Jula’s dad passed away, he left her something special — his massive collection of nearly 10,000 vinyl records (黑胶唱片) packed with all kinds of music, from opera to rock to new wave. At first, it felt overwhelming, but one day, she decided to pick a few albums and give them a listen. A friend suggested she share her journey online, so she started posting videos of her reactions. To her surprise, her social media account quickly gained over 322,000 followers. Jula’s dad, Richard, had loved music all his life. He played instruments, wrote songs, and started collecting records when he was just five years old. Growing up, Jula remembers their home always being filled with music — he would play the Monkeys, the Archies, and Frank Sinatra. When he passed away, his records became one of the few physical things Jula had left of him. She knew she couldn’t let them go. Listening to these albums has been like rediscovering her dad’s world. She doesn’t research them beforehand — she just plays them and reacts. That’s how she found unexpected favorites like Mozart in the Seventies. Of course, there have been funny moments too, like when she mispronounced David Byrne from Talking Heads as David By-ron! But her project is about more than just music. Many followers comment that her videos help them deal with their own sorrow, reminding them of loved ones they’ve lost. Others love sharing their memories, like buying a Lou Reed album when it first came out or listening to the Cars in high school. Through this journey, Jula has learned to appreciate physical music. Holding a record, seeing the scratches her dad made, and knowing they listened to the same sounds makes her feel closer to him. She wonders, “What will future generations have to remember us by? Just a streaming (流媒体) library?” For Jula, these records are more than just music. They’re pieces of her dad’s life — and now, a part of hers too. 1.Why did Jula decide to start sharing videos of reactions online? A. To fulfill her father’s last wish. B. To sell the records and make a profit. C. To follow her friend’s suggestion. D. To compete with other music influencers. 2.What is unique about Jula’s approach to listening to the albums? A.

At a hospital in Milot, she met a 2-year-old boy trapped under broken stones for five days. He had lost his family and suffered serious injuries. Ten months later, while most survivors had returned home, the little kid remained. Nurses cared for him lovingly, placing a sign by his bed: “Do not pick me up” to encourage him to walk on his own. Mary and her husband, Nathan, first hoped to arrange medical treatment for the boy in the U. S., but as they bonded with him, their feelings grew deeper. They decided to adopt (收养) him. In 2013, the child — now named Jamesly Jesse — joined their family in Moweaqua, Illinois, at age four. He learned English, made friends, and grew well in his supportive community. Known for his kindness and determination, he embraced (拥抱) his new life with joy and purpose quickly. Inspired by school activities, Jamesly joined the Boy Scouts and discovered a passion for service and outdoor leadership. In high school, he achieved the rank of Eagle Scout — the program’s highest honor. Yet he wanted more than personal achievement. Remembering the Haitian hospital that once saved him, Jamesly felt a strong calling to reciprocate. In October 2023, he organised a large food-pack event at his school gym. Over 400 volunteers — including teachers, doctors, families, and children — came together to pack meals for Haiti. The effort became one of the town’s biggest youth-led humanitarian (人道主义) projects. The supplies provided important support to the struggling hospital. Now planning to study food systems and hunger relief in college, Jamesly remains humble. He focuses on helping others, not seeking praise. From an earthquake survivor to a community leader, his journey brings hope to many. “I have kids who look up to me,” he says. “And I know they’ll make an impact, too.” 1.Why did the nurses put a sign next to Jamesly’s bed? A. To remind others to care for him. B. To follow the hospital policy strictly. C. To help him regain walking independence. D. To prevent the spread of a serious disease. 2.How did Jamesly behave in Illinois? A. He adapted to the new environment actively. B. He devoted all his time to community activities. C. He impressed others with great success in study. D. He abandoned himself to his unpleasant experiences. 3.What does the underlined word “reciprocate” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Move on. B.

Yang was born in Hefei, Anhui Province, in 1922. His father, Yang Wu-Chih, was a mathematics professor at Tsinghua University. The young Yang grew up on the Tsinghua campus, immersed in books and ideas that would shape his future. In 1957, Yang and fellow theoretical physicist Lee Tsung-Dao were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for their parity violation theory (宇称不守恒定律). The finding overturned one of physics’ long-held assumptions and reshaped our understanding of nature’s laws. The Nobel committee praised“their profound investigation… which has led to important discoveries regarding the elementary particles”. Beyond his technical achievements, Yang’s scientific journey was guided by a profound sense of the aesthetic (美学) of thought. In his essay collection, he reflected on the British physicist Paul Dirac, whose ideas, Yang wrote, were“ captivating.” He described Dirac’s writings as“ clear as autumn water, unstained by dust,” with not a trace of waste. FollowingDirac’s reasoning, he said, always felt marvellous (非凡的), leading to insights no one could have imagined beforehand. To Yang, the Dirac equation was nothing short of a revelation—an expression of both scientific precision and poetic beauty. After decades in the United States, Yang began visiting China more frequently in the 1990s.In 1999, he accepted a professorship at Tsinghua University, where he helped establish the Institute for Advanced Study and raised funds to support young scientists. Even in his eighties and nineties, Yang continued to teach undergraduates and take part in research. Colleagues remember his authority and deep curiosity. He believed education was not only about passing on knowledge, but about inspiring wonder—the same sense of wonder that had driven his own life’s work. 1.For what was Yang awarded the Nobel Prize? A. A remarkable discovery. B. A practical invention. C. A profound investigation. D. A long- held assumption. 2.What did Yang think of Paul Dirac’s equation? A. Clear yet time- consuming. B. Abstract yet inspiring. C. Exact and beautiful. D. Complex yet insightful. 3.What did Yang believe was an important part of education? A. Encouraging students to challenge authority. B. Motivating students to learn actively. C. Cultivating students’ problem- solving abilities. D. Training students to work independently. 4.What can be a suitable title for the text? A. secrets Behind the Nobel Prize B. A Scientist’s Devotion to His Motherland C. Brilliant Discovery of Physics D. A Physicist of Beauty and Curiosity 【答案】1. A　2. C　3. B　4. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇人物介绍。文章主要介绍了物理学家杨振宁的一生与贡献。记述了他从少年时代到获得诺贝尔奖，再到晚年回到中国推动科研与教育的经历。文章呈现了杨振宁作为科学家的卓越成就和他对科学之美的独特理解。 (1)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段“The finding overturned one of physics’ long-held assumptions and reshaped our understanding of nature’s laws.(他们的这一发现推翻了物理学长期以来的一项假设，重新塑造了我们对自然法则的理解。)”可知，杨振宁被授予诺贝尔奖是因为一个了不起的发现。故选A。 (2)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第四段“To Yang, the Dirac equation was nothing short of a revelation — an expression of both scientific precision and poetic beauty.(对杨来说，狄拉克方程无疑是一场启示——既是科学精确性的体现，也是诗意美的表达。)可知，杨振宁认为保罗·狄拉克的方程精确且美丽。故选C。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He believed education was not only about passing on knowledge, but about inspiring wonder — the same sense of wonder that had driven his own life’s work. (他认为教育不仅仅是传授知识，更是激发好奇心——正是这种好奇心推动了他自己一生的工作。)”可知，杨振宁认为教育的重要组成部分是激励学生主动学习。故选B。 (4)题解析： 主旨大意题。文章主要讲了杨振宁作为科学家的一生，第二、三段讲他的出生和获得诺贝尔奖的经历，第四段讲杨振宁的科学经历受到了很深的美学思想的影响，最后两段着重讲的是杨振宁回国后的贡献和在教育方面的付出。所以选D“A Physicist of Beauty and Curiosity(一个美丽与好奇心并存的物理学家)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D。 Passage 3 （25-26高二上·湖南省长沙市天心区长沙市明德中学·期中）Fred Perry was a legendary English tennis player, known for his remarkable achievements on the court.

Every week, they taught a group of 8-to-14-year- olds life skills like how to cook and sew (缝制). “Loneliness is something that seniors are challenged with, and they love having younger people around them,” said Zainab Hussain, a program manager at Olive Community Services, a nonprofit that hosted the camp to bring teens and elderly adults together. In the camp, a small room was filled with energy as the kids chatted and chewed on snacks. Some grandmas were around and watched, content to just be around the youngsters. Haqiqah Abdul Rahim, one of the grandmas serving as the instructor for sewing, said many kids don’t learn these skills at school, so they’re filling in a gap. She stood in front of the room at the start of the activity, holding up various tools and explaining what they were. Rahim also didn’t get to spend a lot of time with her grandchildren because they didn’t live close. “It is heartwarming to be able to interact with those who love being around you,” Rahim said. The summer camp was held in partnership with the Golden Connections Club, started by14-year-old high school student Leena Albinali. She lived with her grandma but realized other students didn't have the same opportunity to spend as much time with their grandparents. She also learned about ageism (年龄歧视) and other challenges faced by senior adults in one of her classes. “They treat us like we’re their grandchildren,” Albinali said.“ We share what we know about artificial intelligence and its impact on our lives, and the elders share their life stories and advice. One of the most important things they’ve shared with me is to live in the moment, something that’s taken on new meaning for me — The people we have right now are not going to be with us forever.” 1.What is the purpose of the summer camp? A. To teach kids life skills. B. To help seniors fight loneliness. C. To connect generations. D. To educate kids to respect seniors. 2.How does Rahim find her job of teaching sewing in the camp? A. It makes up for the lessons at school. B. It offers career options to kids in future. C. It inspires kids’ interest in her profession. D. It reminds her to contact her grandchildren. 3.What inspired Albinali to set up Golden Connections Club? A. Her school’s support. B. Her own experience. C. Seniors’ common voice. D. Ageism her grandma got. 4.What message does Albinali want to convey in the last paragraph? A. The shared challenges facing generations. B. The curiosity of seniors about technology. C.

If you don’t share a trip, did it even happen? Though I felt more present offline, I still imagine that ideal carousel (动态); a blurry selfie with my husband, posed kids’ photo, and overhead shot of local food. I know that craving the high of posting may not be cool, but I desperately miss sharing travel photos. In them, I am the person I want to be: carefree and adventurous. Sharing makes it so, somehow. However, one person’s vacation photos are another person’s existential crisis. Following a friend’s voyage twisted my mind—forgetting my seasickness, homesickness, and empty wallet. This isn’t new. Years ago, stunning Bali blogs tricked me into my first overseas trip—reality never matched those glowing screens. Later, I met my husband in Barcelona. I didn’t take a single photo that night, wanting to be unbothered, but mostly because I was having too much fun. My brightest moments? Often lens-free. Now, as a parent, I try to be in the moment, but my eyes drift to other parents twisting themselves for the perfect shot. I worry I’m missing some parental duty, so I pick up my phone and open the camera app. On our recent vacation to London, I decided to take photos, wrestling with portrait mode and begging the children to smile. My effort was rewarded with 187 photos. Each night, I looked through them and marveled at the best of my son and daughter. Armed with these images, I tried making a private album on my phone and uploading to a family digital frame. Yet nothing felt the same as sharing on the socials. Then it came to me I could use a physical photo album instead. I laid out the book online, and it arrived a few days ago. It is something I can hold in my hands, something to hold on to. I’m putting it on my coffee table, where my friends are sure to see it. 1.Why does the author badly want to share travel photos on social media? A. To present an idealized self. B.

Born in Toulouse, Vincent has been living in southwest China for more than a decade. With the influence of French artists Jean Dunand and Gaston Suisse, his journey to unravel the secrets of Chinese lacquerware and his fascination for lacquer art started. “I studied their artworks and often wondered why they used Chinese lacquer. In those days, lacquer could not be found in France,” said the artist. Native to Asia, lacquer trees are planted and tapped for their liquid. It is almost impossible to find lacquer trees in Europe. So, instead of continually transporting lacquer back to France, Vincent chose to send himself to China. Having explored his connections with lacquer over the years, the artist also learned a range of techniques, which he integrated into his own artworks. To dive deep into the art of lacquerware, Vincent traveled to Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture (自治州) in Sichuan Province, where lacquer craftsmanship is famous. In fact, he actually met two lacquerware craftsmen, who taught him almost everything they knew. “I used to know about lacquerware of Yi just by looking at it. But I had never seen the Yi people before. I have never heard their language. I've never seen their villages. It's only when I came here that I felt the power of their culture,” said Vincent. This field trip gave the artist new inspiration for his exhibition. After seeing Vincent's exhibition, Liu Guanzhong, a professor at the School of Fine Arts of Tsinghua University said, “What he presents is China in his eyes. Vincent has explored a path: the ideas of a modern artist, but rooting the ancient skills in modern life. He finds new soil for an old seed to bloom into a new flower.” 1.What does the underlined word “unravel” mean in paragraph 2? A. Ignore. B. Discover. C. Create. D. Preserve. 2.Why did Vincent come to China? A. To visit the lacquerware exhibition. B. To study Chinese traditional art. C. To get access to lacquer more easily. D. To meet with local lacquerware craftsmen. 3.How did Vincent know about Yi lacquerware before visiting Liangshan? A. By observing Yi lacquerware visually. B. Through artworks of Jean Dunand and Gaston Suisse. C. By studying historical documents in France. D. From lectures by Tsinghua University professors. 4.What would Liu Guanzhong agree with about the exhibition? A. It represented idealism. B. It featured modern art. C. It explored the roots of art. D. It demonstrated innovation. 【答案】1. B　2. C　3. A　4.

For over a decade, 42-year-old Dradul has devoted himself to guarding this precious ecosystem. A typical workday for Dradul begins with a 10-kilometer motorcycle patrol (巡逻) by mid-morning, following a fixed route around the lake. His bag is always stocked with essentials: binoculars (双筒望远镜) to scan for waterbirds, a notebook to record wildlife species, wildlife numbers, weather, and water levels, and garbage bags to collect rubbish. He also carries a “life-saving kit” — zanba, drinking water, a thick coat, a sun mask, and simple tools for helping injured animals. One notable rescue saw him and his colleagues, along with local officials, free a trapped wild Yak (牦牛); they tied ropes around its horns and pulled inch by inch; then they waited 30 minutes to ensure the animal could walk and eat grass again. Dradul is part of a 90- guardian team responsible for nearly 99,000 hectares of the wetland, about 69,000 hectares of it being the lake. Their work — patrolling, recording, rescuing animals, and reminding tourists not to throw rubbish everywhere or damage grasslands — has, increased biodiversity: the wetland now hosts 411 plant species and 157vertebrates (脊椎动物). For Dradul, this role is life- changing. Before 2014, he moved between unstable short- term jobs; now, he earns a regular 2,000 yuan monthly and feels proud to protect the lake. “It’s not just work,” he says. “It’s keeping the lake clean for my children and grandchildren.” Yet challenges continue: climate change melts (融化) glaciers and changes shorelines. Some tourists break rules, and remote areas can’t be patrolled daily. Dradul hopes for drones (无人机) to aid patrols and more young people to join. “With sincere hearts and hard work,” he says, “Mapam Yumco Lake will never grow old.” 1.Why is Mapam Yumco Lake called “Mother of Rivers”? A. It is the world’s highest freshwater lake. B. It supports biodiversity beyond the Himalayas. C. Its water supplies the headwaters of major rivers. D. It is guarded by a professional team of 90 people. 2.What does the underlined word “stocked” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Fixed. B. Equipped. C. Connected. D. Decorated. 3.How does Dradul view his role? A. As only a source of regular income. B. As a significant lifelong duty. C. As a challenging pressure. D. As a short-time job. 4.What’s the best title for the text? A. A Lake in Xizang B. Dradul’s Daily Hobbies C. Challenges of Protecting Lakes D. High-altitude Tasks to Be Proud of 【答案】1. C　2. B　3. B　4. D 【解析】【导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了位于中国西南部西藏自治区阿里地区普兰县海拔4500多米的玛旁雍错湖（又称玛纳斯鲁湖）的生态重要性，以及一位名叫Dradul的守护者如何致力于保护这一珍贵生态系统的工作和挑战。 (1)题解析： 细节理解题。根据第一段“Mapam Yumco Lake — also called Lake Manasarovar — holds two important titles: one of the world’s highest freshwater lakes and “Mother of Rivers”, as its waters feed the headwaters (上游源头) of the Ganges, Indus, Sutlej, and Yarlung Zangbo, supporting life beyond the Himalayas. (玛旁雍错湖——又称玛纳斯鲁湖——拥有两个重要的称号：世界上海拔最高的淡水湖之一和“万河之母”，因为它的水滋养了恒河、印度河、萨特莱杰河和雅鲁藏布江的源头，支撑着喜马拉雅山脉以外的生命。)”可知，玛旁雍错湖被称为“万河之母”是因为它的水滋养了多条主要河流的源头。故选C项。 (2)题解析： 词句猜测题。根据第二段“His bag is always stocked with essentials: binoculars (双筒望远镜) to scan for waterbirds, a notebook to record wildlife species, wildlife numbers, weather, and water levels, and garbage bags to collect rubbish. (他的包里总是stocked必需品：用于观察水鸟的双筒望远镜、记录野生动物种类、数量、天气和水位的笔记本，以及收集垃圾的垃圾袋。)”可知，他的包里总是装着必需品，所以stocked意为“装备，装着”。故选B项。 (3)题解析： 推理判断题。根据第三段“For Dradul, this role is life-changing. Before 2014, he moved between unstable short-term jobs; now, he earns a regular 2,000 yuan monthly and feels proud to protect the lake. “It’s not just work,” he says. “It’s keeping the lake clean for my children and grandchildren.” (对Dradul来说，这个角色改变了他的生活。2014年之前，他在不稳定的工作之间转换；现在，他每月有固定的2000元收入，并为保护这个湖感到自豪。“这不仅仅是工作，”他说。“这是为了我的子孙后代保持湖泊的清洁。”)”可知，Dradul认为他的角色是一个重要的终身职责。故选B项。 (4)题解析： 主旨大意题。根据第一段“For over a decade, 42-year-old Dradul has devoted himself to guarding this precious ecosystem. (十多年来，42岁的Dradul一直致力于守护这个珍贵的生态系统。)”以及纵观全文可知，全文核心围绕“高海拔湖泊玛旁雍错的守护者工作”展开，既介绍了德拉杜尔等守护者在高海拔环境下的具体任务(巡逻、记录、救助等)，也强调了这份工作的意义(守护生态、传承未来)与价值。D选项“High-altitude Tasks to Be Proud of(值得骄傲的高海拔任务)”既点明了工作的“高海拔”场景，也体现了工作的价值感，能概括全文主旨。故选D项。 / 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
