For today’s Chinese youth overseas, that feeling is no longer expressed by holding up a passport, but by holding up a familiar textbook against the very landmarks printed on its cover. Now, let’s take a closer look at the landmarks that decorate these textbooks. Big Ben For most young Chinese, Big Ben and the red double-decker bus stand for Britain, as they appeared on their school English textbook covers. Inspired by these childhood books, young Chinese initiated a “textbook relay” by the Thames: They hid textbooks in hidden spots and whoever found it could take photos beside real Big Ben and write messages on book margins. The Golden Gate Bridge The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate. It carries vehicular, pedestrian (行人的) and bicycle traffic. Recognized by the American Society of Civil Engineers as one of the Wonders of the Modern World, the bridge is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco and California. Pyramids Chinese tourists in Egypt are visiting the pyramids and posing for photos with 7th-grade history textbooks, turning a “textbook journey” into a popular travel trend. This phenomenon highlights a deep engagement with history, with some travelers even hiding their textbooks as “treasures” or gifts for others in the stone cracks of the sites. Twelve Apostles The Twelve Apostles is one of Australia’s most famous destinations, famed for its stunning coastal views and attractive rock formations. Their closeness to one another has made the site a popular tourist attraction. The formation’s name was made official as the Twelve Apostles, after the Apostles of Jesus, to attract more tourists. 1. How do today’s Chinese youth express “I was here” now? A. By taking selfies. B. By holding a passport. C. By visiting landmarks. D. By posing with a textbook. 2. What’s the common textbook act at Big Ben and Pyramids? A. Taking photos of books. B. Hiding books for others. C. Writing notes on pages. D. Selling books to tourists. 3. What is the Twelve Apostles known for? A. Pedestrian and bicycle traffic. B. Messages in the margins. C. A deep engagement with history. D. Coastal scenery and rock structures. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了海外中国青年通过携带教科书打卡地标来表达“到此一游”的旅行新风尚。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。​根据第一段中“For today’s Chinese youth overseas, that feeling is no longer expressed by holding up a passport, but by holding up a familiar textbook against the very landmarks printed on its cover.(对于当今海外中国青年来说，这种感觉不再是通过举起护照来表达，而是通过举起一本熟悉的教科书，让它对着封面印刷的那个地标)”可知，现在的中国青年是通过用教科书在地标前摆拍来表达“我曾在这”。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。​根据Big Ben部分中“Inspired by these childhood books, young Chinese initiated a “textbook relay” by the Thames: They hid textbooks in hidden spots and whoever found it could take photos beside real Big Ben and write messages on book margins.(受这些童年读物的启发，在泰晤士河畔，中国的年轻人发起了一场“教科书接力”：他们把教科书藏在隐蔽的地方，任何找到书的人都可以站在真正的大本钟旁拍照，并在书页边缘写下留言)”以及Pyramids部分中“This phenomenon highlights a deep engagement with history, with some travelers even hiding their textbooks as “treasures” or gifts for others in the stone cracks of the sites.(这种现象体现了人们对历史的一种深度参与，一些游客甚至把他们的教科书当作“宝藏”或礼物，藏在遗址的石头缝隙中留给后来人)”可知，在Big Ben和Pyramids两地，游客共同的教科书行为是藏匿书本供他人发现。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。​根据Twelve Apostles部分中“The Twelve Apostles is one of Australia’s most famous destinations, famed for its stunning coastal views and attractive rock formations.(十二门徒岩是澳大利亚最著名的景点之一，以其迷人的海岸风光和吸引人的岩石构造而闻名)”可知，该景点以海岸风景和岩石结构著称。 B Waters, a 13-year-old boy from Lehi, Utah, became fascinated with 3D printing after watching a YouTube channel about the technology. But he wanted to do more than simply make cool things. He discovered MakeGood, a nonprofit that creates 3D-printed assistive devices for people with disabilities, and found the perfect way to combine his passion with his desire to help others. His summer project was a custom wheelchair designed for a 21-month-old girl. Waters spent roughly 300 hours designing, printing, testing, and constructing the chair. He also made sure it included features that could make a real difference for the child and her family. The wheelchair has pink highlights because pink is the girl’s favorite color. It also includes a removable cupholder and table, along with a space on the back where heavier medical equipment can be stored. The footrest and headrest can be adjusted as she grows, while the straps (绑带) are made from soft, flexible material for added comfort. Waters said his favorite part of 3D printing is putting all the individual pieces together, and this project gave him plenty of that. He also credits his family for supporting him throughout the process and helping him work through his ideas. His grandmother, Charlotte Waters, hopes the experience will stay with him long after the wheelchair is delivered. “We hope he always remembers that the greatest legacy anyone can leave is to make someone else’s life better,” she said. “His age does not define his ability to make a difference. His character does.” Waters hopes to pursue “something techie” when he grows up and plans to continue developing his 3D printing skills so he can help even more people in the future. 4. What motivated Waters to take on the project? A. His desire to practice printing. B. His passion for YouTube videos. C. His interest coupled with kindness. D. His family’s tradition of helping others. 5. Which of the following is a feature of the custom wheelchair? A. It is entirely pink. B. It has adjustable parts. C. It is designed mainly for adults. D. It has removable medical equipment. 6. What does “the greatest legacy” mean according to Charlotte Waters? A. Personal achievements. B. Technical skills. C. Positive impacts on others. D. Admirable personal qualities. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Print with a Purpose. B. Growing with a Big Dream. C. Family Support, Shared Effort. D. 3D Printing, Artistic Creations. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述13岁男孩热爱3D打印，将爱好与善心结合，耗时许久为残疾小女孩定制专属轮椅，坚持用技术帮助他人。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“He discovered MakeGood, a nonprofit that creates 3D-printed assistive devices for people with disabilities, and found the perfect way to combine his passion with his desire to help others.(他发现了MakeGood这个为残障人士制作3D打印辅助设备的非营利组织，并找到了把自己的热爱和帮助他人的心愿相结合的完美方式。)”可知，是他对3D打印的兴趣加上乐于助人的善心促使他开展这个项目。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The footrest and headrest can be adjusted as she grows, while the straps (绑带) are made from soft, flexible material for added comfort.(脚踏板和头枕可以随着她长大而调节，绑带由柔软有弹性的材料制成，提升舒适度。)”可知，这款定制轮椅带有可调节部件。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“We hope he always remembers that the greatest legacy anyone can leave is to make someone else’s life better.(我们希望他永远记住，一个人能留下的最伟大的遗产，就是让别人的生活变得更好。)”可知，the greatest legacy指对他人产生的积极影响。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“He discovered MakeGood, a nonprofit that creates 3D-printed assistive devices for people with disabilities, and found the perfect way to combine his passion with his desire to help others.(他发现了MakeGood这个为残障人士制作3D打印辅助设备的非营利组织，并找到了把自己的热爱和帮助他人的心愿相结合的完美方式。)”以及全文可知，文章讲述男孩用3D打印技术制作轮椅帮助小女孩，带着善意去打印，所以A项“Print with a Purpose(带着目标去打印)”最贴合文章主旨。 C El Niños (厄尔尼诺), which are a temporary warming of parts of the equatorial Pacific, affect weather worldwide and increase extreme events, including heat waves, floods and droughts, costing trillions in damage. A new study suggests that El Niños, the natural climatic chaos agent that occurs regularly and raises global temperatures, are getting stronger because of human-caused climate change. El Niños are more than 36% stronger than they were before the industrial age began in the mid-1800s, according to a study in Science. In the last 40 years alone, they have jumped 16%, showing that the increase is speeding up. The findings come as a strong El Niño that formed a couple months ago is forecast to be the biggest on record in coming months. “That’s important because strong El Niños have much stronger impacts on climate hazards and extremes worldwide,” said lead author Julia Cole. Her study looks back at El Niños going back 900 years or so. Cole’s team took a novel approach by analyzing 29 coral fossils from the Galapagos Islands, with the oldest from around year 1100. By measuring proportions of calcium and other elements and different forms of oxygen, they calculated seawater temperatures. The temperature curve looks like a hockey stick, consistent with global warming. An El Niño’s strength is determined by measuring water temperature in a region of the central Pacific and comparing a three-month average to normal. The most recent weekly figure is at 2.7 degrees Celsius above normal and is expected to keep growing for another two to four months. Scientists have long theorized that global warming would strengthen El Niños, but observational records only go back about 75 years, previously too incomplete to show a trend. The new finding has caused disagreement. Some experts regard coral records as trustworthy proof that El Niños grow stronger as the planet warms. Critics, however, argue that the chemical signals in corals reflect general ocean warming instead of stronger El Niño cycles, and recent local data fails to back up the claim. Cole notes that natural ups-and-downs between massive and mild El Niños may distort (歪曲) short-term statistics. Despite the academic argument, all scientists reach one agreement: we must cut fossil-fuel use, since no simple solution exists to weaken destructive El Niños in the future. 8. What does the new Science study find about El Niños? A. They are gaining intensity. B. They occur more frequently. C. They give rise to most global disasters. D. They are unrelated to natural climate shifts. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The research background. B. The research process. C. The research significance. D. The research objective. 10. What is the major argument against the study? A. El Niños have stayed unchanged for centuries. B. Local data is more trustworthy than fossil data. C. Coral fossils cannot reflect ancient ocean conditions. D. The study mistakes ocean warming for El Niño change. 11. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To sound an alarm. B. To offer a solution. C. To present a finding. D. To clarify a debate. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了研究表明人为气候变化使厄尔尼诺强度持续增强，研究者通过珊瑚化石佐证该结论，学界对此存有争议，但科学家一致认为需减少化石燃料使用以应对其危害。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“El Niños are more than 36% stronger than they were before the industrial age began in the mid-1800s, according to a study in Science. In the last 40 years alone, they have jumped 16%, showing that the increase is speeding up. The findings come as a strong El Niño that formed a couple months ago is forecast to be the biggest on record in coming months.(根据《科学》杂志的一项研究，自19世纪中叶工业时代开始以来，厄尔尼诺现象的强度已增强超过36%。仅在过去40年中，其强度就上升了16%，表明增长速度正在加快。这一发现正值数月前形成的强厄尔尼诺现象预计将在未来几个月内达到有记录以来最强水平)”可知，新的科学研究发现厄尔尼诺现象正在增强强度。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段““That’s important because strong El Niños have much stronger impacts on climate hazards and extremes worldwide,” said lead author Julia Cole. Her study looks back at El Niños going back 900 years or so. Cole’s team took a novel approach by analyzing 29 coral fossils from the Galapagos Islands, with the oldest from around year 1100. By measuring proportions of calcium and other elements and different forms of oxygen, they calculated seawater temperatures. The temperature curve looks like a hockey stick, consistent with global warming.(“这一点很重要，因为强厄尔尼诺现象对全球气候灾害和极端天气的影响更为显著，”第一作者朱莉娅·科尔表示。她的研究追溯了大约900年前的厄尔尼诺事件。科尔的研究团队采用了一种新颖的方法，分析了来自加拉帕戈斯群岛的29个珊瑚化石，其中最古老的可追溯至约1100年。通过测量钙及其他元素的比例以及不同形式的氧，他们计算出了海水温度。测得的温度曲线呈现出类似冰球棒的形态，与全球变暖的趋势一致)”可知，第三段主要谈论了研究过程。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Critics, however, argue that the chemical signals in corals reflect general ocean warming instead of stronger El Niño cycles, and recent local data fails to back up the claim.(然而，批评者认为珊瑚中的化学信号反映的是整体海洋变暖，而非更强烈的厄尔尼诺现象周期，而近期的本地数据未能支持这一说法)”可知，这项研究的主要反对理由是这项研究将海洋变暖误认为是厄尔尼诺现象的变化。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Despite the academic argument, all scientists reach one agreement: we must cut fossil-fuel use, since no simple solution exists to weaken destructive El Niños in the future.(尽管存在学术争议，所有科学家都达成了一致：我们必须减少化石燃料的使用，因为目前尚无简单的方法来削弱未来破坏性的厄尔尼诺现象)”可知，最后一段的主要目的是发出警告。 D In recent years, we’ve witnessed a return of interest in products and culture from before the internet, as shown by rising sales of vinyl records, CDs, books, and board games. While one might assume these trends are primarily driven by middle-aged and older adults looking to revisit their youth, young people — particularly Gen Z — are a major force behind this retro revival (复古复兴). To understand the psychology behind this phenomenon, researchers at the Human Flourishing Lab partnered with a cultural insights agency. Their analysis revealed that Gen Z isn’t just passively consuming historical nostalgia (怀旧); they are actively mining the past to enrich their lives and plan for the future. For instance, one social media user expressed a desire to create physical photo albums to share with visitors, just as previous generations did. Their interest in old-school technology appears to be driven, in part, by a desire to dial back their digital engagement and foster a greater appreciation for offline living. To measure these observations, the team subsequently conducted a nationally representative survey of over 2,000 U.S. adults. We found that most Gen Z adults feel nostalgic for eras before they were born (68%), are attracted to their media, styles, hobbies, and traditions (73%), and believe that new technologies should incorporate their ideas and design elements (78%). Moreover, about two-thirds of Gen Z report that exploring past eras helps them deal with stress about modern life (65%) or anxiety about the future (66%). This phenomenon is not unique to Gen Z. Millennials and Gen Xers also report significant levels of historical nostalgia, while older generations show less interest in eras before them. What distinguishes Gen Z, however, is that those who grew up with smartphones and social media are increasingly curious about what came before the digital revolution. Rather than signaling a retreat from technology, Gen Z’s embrace of historical nostalgia appears to reflect a more thoughtful and active approach to digital living. 12. What can we learn about the retro revival? A. Older adults lead the new trend. B. Young generations fuel it greatly. C. Its products have seen declining sales. D. It mainly involves e-books and games. 13. What does the underlined word “dial back” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Maintain. B. Increase. C. Reduce. D. Understand. 14. What can be inferred from the survey results? A. 73% show preference for new technology. B. 68% attach less attention to the past eras. C. Nostalgia relieves Gen Z’s unease. D. Nostalgia brings about new challenges. 15. Which of the following best describes Gen Z according to the passage? A. Mindful. B. Passive. C. Obsessive. D. Trendy. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍Z世代成为复古复兴主力，探究其怀旧的心理、调研依据及该群体怀旧的独特性与意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“While one might assume these trends are primarily driven by middle-aged and older adults looking to revisit their youth, young people — particularly Gen Z — are a major force behind this retro revival (复古复兴). (虽然人们可能认为这些趋势主要是由想要重温青春的中老年人推动的，但年轻人——尤其是Z世代——是这场复古复兴背后的主要力量。)”可知，年轻一代极大地推动了复古复兴这一潮流。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Their interest in old-school technology appears to be driven, in part, by a desire to dial back their digital engagement and foster a greater appreciation for offline living. (他们对传统技术的兴趣，部分源于想要dial back数字生活参与度，更加珍惜线下生活的想法。)”可知，Z世代偏爱复古事物，希望降低线上数字活动的频次、重视线下生活，由此可推知dial back意为“减少”，与reduce同义。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Moreover, about two-thirds of Gen Z report that exploring past eras helps them deal with stress about modern life (65%) or anxiety about the future (66%). (此外，约三分之二的Z世代表示，探索过去的时代有助于他们应对现代生活的压力（65%）或未来的焦虑（66%）。)”可知，怀旧能够缓解Z世代的不安情绪。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“they are actively mining the past to enrich their lives and plan for the future (他们主动挖掘过往，丰富自身生活、规划未来)”以及最后一段“Gen Z’s embrace of historical nostalgia appears to reflect a more thoughtful and active approach to digital living. (Z世代的怀旧情怀，体现了他们对待数字生活更审慎、积极的态度。)”可知，Z世代不被动盲从，懂得理性利用过往、平衡生活，是审慎理智的。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Enter Artificial Intelligence (AI), a powerhouse of innovation in the fitness universe.

My husband, our two children — Rummy, 14, and Willa, 12 — and I lost almost everything. Months later, we returned to see what was left. The neighborhood lay flat and empty. Only chimneys, walls, and our strangely surviving garage remained. Burnt trees stood like ghosts. There were no dogs, hardly any birds. People wandered silently down the middle of the empty streets. For my children, the loss was terrible — not just our home, but the trees they had climbed, their favorite restaurants, their friends’ houses. They became quiet and sad. I worried about how they would ever get through this. Then an image came to me: white-and-yellow daisies (雏菊) covering the blackened hills. I remembered Miss Rumphius, a children’s book about a woman who scattered flower seeds everywhere she went. An idea struck me. I told the kids, “What if we spread wildflower seeds in the ruined places? We could bring color back.” We decided to give it a try. If it worked, maybe we could share the idea with others in the community who were also struggling to find hope. I found a simple recipe for “seed bombs” — balls made of seeds, soil, and clay. In the yard of our rental house, we made our first set of seed balls. It was messy but fun. Rolling the sticky mixture between our hands felt strangely relaxing. We dried them carefully, wondering if anything would actually grow. On a cloudy summer day, we returned to our old address. The kids stood on the brick doorstep — the only thing left of our front door — and threw seed bombs into the empty space. Then we climbed down into the hole that had been our living room, where we had spent every Christmas. We placed a pile of seed bombs on the bare ground and crushed them with our boots, right where the hearth (炉灶) used to be. We waited, hoping for rain to come soon so that the seeds could sprout (发芽). 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: For the longest time, nothing happened. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The green sprouts changed everything for our family. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: For the longest time, nothing happened. We visited the ruined site week after week, only to see bare black soil. The kids’ excitement faded gradually. Willa sighed that the seeds might never grow in such burnt land. I comforted them patiently, asking them not to give up hope. We came to check the site every week, waiting patiently for a miracle. Silence often filled the empty land, weighing heavily on our hearts. Then one morning after heavy rain, Rummy shouted loudly. Tiny green shoots broke through the dark earth. Our hearts leaped with joy. Paragraph 2: The green sprouts changed everything for our family. The children became lively again. They told neighbors about our seed bombs. More people joined us to spread seeds across the burnt neighborhood. We worked side by side, turning the empty wasteland into a place full of life. People stopped to admire the growing plants and shared their own stories. Months later, daisies bloomed everywhere on the once blackened hills. Watching the colourful flowers, we realized hope could grow from ruin. Though we lost our home, we planted new hope and rebuilt warmth together. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述一场大火摧毁了作者一家的家园，孩子们因此变得消沉悲伤。为重拾生活希望，作者带领孩子制作种子球，在被烧毁的废墟土地上播撒花种，期盼用鲜花和生机治愈伤痛、重塑希望的故事。 【详解】1. 续写思路： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写孩子们热情消退、心生失望，家人坚持等待，最终雨后种子发芽，迎来转机。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写孩子重拾乐观，带动邻里参与播种，荒地繁花盛开，升华废墟之上孕育希望的主题。 2. 续写线索：长久无果→失落怀疑→坚持等待→嫩芽破土→重拾活力→邻里参与→繁花绽放→感悟希望 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①消退：fade/fade away/die down ②欣赏：admire/appreciate/enjoy 情绪类 ①耐心地：patiently/with patience/in a patient manner ②喜悦：joy/pleasure/delight 【点睛】【高分句型1】Willa sighed that the seeds might never grow in such burnt land.

For today’s Chinese youth overseas, that feeling is no longer expressed by holding up a passport, but by holding up a familiar textbook against the very landmarks printed on its cover. Now, let’s take a closer look at the landmarks that decorate these textbooks. Big Ben For most young Chinese, Big Ben and the red double-decker bus stand for Britain, as they appeared on their school English textbook covers. Inspired by these childhood books, young Chinese initiated a “textbook relay” by the Thames: They hid textbooks in hidden spots and whoever found it could take photos beside real Big Ben and write messages on book margins. The Golden Gate Bridge The Golden Gate Bridge is a suspension bridge spanning the Golden Gate. It carries vehicular, pedestrian (行人的) and bicycle traffic. Recognized by the American Society of Civil Engineers as one of the Wonders of the Modern World, the bridge is one of the most internationally recognized symbols of San Francisco and California. Pyramids Chinese tourists in Egypt are visiting the pyramids and posing for photos with 7th-grade history textbooks, turning a “textbook journey” into a popular travel trend. This phenomenon highlights a deep engagement with history, with some travelers even hiding their textbooks as “treasures” or gifts for others in the stone cracks of the sites. Twelve Apostles The Twelve Apostles is one of Australia’s most famous destinations, famed for its stunning coastal views and attractive rock formations. Their closeness to one another has made the site a popular tourist attraction. The formation’s name was made official as the Twelve Apostles, after the Apostles of Jesus, to attract more tourists. 1. How do today’s Chinese youth express “I was here” now? A. By taking selfies. B. By holding a passport. C. By visiting landmarks. D. By posing with a textbook. 2. What’s the common textbook act at Big Ben and Pyramids? A. Taking photos of books. B. Hiding books for others. C. Writing notes on pages. D. Selling books to tourists. 3. What is the Twelve Apostles known for? A. Pedestrian and bicycle traffic. B. Messages in the margins. C. A deep engagement with history. D. Coastal scenery and rock structures. B Waters, a 13-year-old boy from Lehi, Utah, became fascinated with 3D printing after watching a YouTube channel about the technology. But he wanted to do more than simply make cool things. He discovered MakeGood, a nonprofit that creates 3D-printed assistive devices for people with disabilities, and found the perfect way to combine his passion with his desire to help others. His summer project was a custom wheelchair designed for a 21-month-old girl. Waters spent roughly 300 hours designing, printing, testing, and constructing the chair. He also made sure it included features that could make a real difference for the child and her family. The wheelchair has pink highlights because pink is the girl’s favorite color. It also includes a removable cupholder and table, along with a space on the back where heavier medical equipment can be stored. The footrest and headrest can be adjusted as she grows, while the straps (绑带) are made from soft, flexible material for added comfort. Waters said his favorite part of 3D printing is putting all the individual pieces together, and this project gave him plenty of that. He also credits his family for supporting him throughout the process and helping him work through his ideas. His grandmother, Charlotte Waters, hopes the experience will stay with him long after the wheelchair is delivered. “We hope he always remembers that the greatest legacy anyone can leave is to make someone else’s life better,” she said. “His age does not define his ability to make a difference. His character does.” Waters hopes to pursue “something techie” when he grows up and plans to continue developing his 3D printing skills so he can help even more people in the future. 4. What motivated Waters to take on the project? A. His desire to practice printing. B. His passion for YouTube videos. C. His interest coupled with kindness. D. His family’s tradition of helping others. 5. Which of the following is a feature of the custom wheelchair? A. It is entirely pink. B. It has adjustable parts. C. It is designed mainly for adults. D. It has removable medical equipment. 6. What does “the greatest legacy” mean according to Charlotte Waters? A. Personal achievements. B. Technical skills. C. Positive impacts on others. D. Admirable personal qualities. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Print with a Purpose. B. Growing with a Big Dream. C. Family Support, Shared Effort. D. 3D Printing, Artistic Creations. C El Niños (厄尔尼诺), which are a temporary warming of parts of the equatorial Pacific, affect weather worldwide and increase extreme events, including heat waves, floods and droughts, costing trillions in damage. A new study suggests that El Niños, the natural climatic chaos agent that occurs regularly and raises global temperatures, are getting stronger because of human-caused climate change. El Niños are more than 36% stronger than they were before the industrial age began in the mid-1800s, according to a study in Science. In the last 40 years alone, they have jumped 16%, showing that the increase is speeding up. The findings come as a strong El Niño that formed a couple months ago is forecast to be the biggest on record in coming months. “That’s important because strong El Niños have much stronger impacts on climate hazards and extremes worldwide,” said lead author Julia Cole. Her study looks back at El Niños going back 900 years or so. Cole’s team took a novel approach by analyzing 29 coral fossils from the Galapagos Islands, with the oldest from around year 1100. By measuring proportions of calcium and other elements and different forms of oxygen, they calculated seawater temperatures. The temperature curve looks like a hockey stick, consistent with global warming. An El Niño’s strength is determined by measuring water temperature in a region of the central Pacific and comparing a three-month average to normal. The most recent weekly figure is at 2.7 degrees Celsius above normal and is expected to keep growing for another two to four months. Scientists have long theorized that global warming would strengthen El Niños, but observational records only go back about 75 years, previously too incomplete to show a trend. The new finding has caused disagreement. Some experts regard coral records as trustworthy proof that El Niños grow stronger as the planet warms. Critics, however, argue that the chemical signals in corals reflect general ocean warming instead of stronger El Niño cycles, and recent local data fails to back up the claim. Cole notes that natural ups-and-downs between massive and mild El Niños may distort (歪曲) short-term statistics. Despite the academic argument, all scientists reach one agreement: we must cut fossil-fuel use, since no simple solution exists to weaken destructive El Niños in the future. 8. What does the new Science study find about El Niños? A. They are gaining intensity. B. They occur more frequently. C. They give rise to most global disasters. D. They are unrelated to natural climate shifts. 9. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The research background. B. The research process. C. The research significance. D. The research objective. 10. What is the major argument against the study? A. El Niños have stayed unchanged for centuries. B. Local data is more trustworthy than fossil data. C. Coral fossils cannot reflect ancient ocean conditions. D. The study mistakes ocean warming for El Niño change. 11. What is the main purpose of the last paragraph? A. To sound an alarm. B. To offer a solution. C. To present a finding. D. To clarify a debate. D In recent years, we’ve witnessed a return of interest in products and culture from before the internet, as shown by rising sales of vinyl records, CDs, books, and board games. While one might assume these trends are primarily driven by middle-aged and older adults looking to revisit their youth, young people — particularly Gen Z — are a major force behind this retro revival (复古复兴). To understand the psychology behind this phenomenon, researchers at the Human Flourishing Lab partnered with a cultural insights agency. Their analysis revealed that Gen Z isn’t just passively consuming historical nostalgia (怀旧); they are actively mining the past to enrich their lives and plan for the future. For instance, one social media user expressed a desire to create physical photo albums to share with visitors, just as previous generations did. Their interest in old-school technology appears to be driven, in part, by a desire to dial back their digital engagement and foster a greater appreciation for offline living. To measure these observations, the team subsequently conducted a nationally representative survey of over 2,000 U.S. adults. We found that most Gen Z adults feel nostalgic for eras before they were born (68%), are attracted to their media, styles, hobbies, and traditions (73%), and believe that new technologies should incorporate their ideas and design elements (78%). Moreover, about two-thirds of Gen Z report that exploring past eras helps them deal with stress about modern life (65%) or anxiety about the future (66%). This phenomenon is not unique to Gen Z. Millennials and Gen Xers also report significant levels of historical nostalgia, while older generations show less interest in eras before them. What distinguishes Gen Z, however, is that those who grew up with smartphones and social media are increasingly curious about what came before the digital revolution. Rather than signaling a retreat from technology, Gen Z’s embrace of historical nostalgia appears to reflect a more thoughtful and active approach to digital living. 12. What can we learn about the retro revival? A. Older adults lead the new trend. B. Young generations fuel it greatly. C. Its products have seen declining sales. D. It mainly involves e-books and games. 13. What does the underlined word “dial back” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Maintain. B. Increase. C. Reduce. D. Understand. 14. What can be inferred from the survey results? A. 73% show preference for new technology. B. 68% attach less attention to the past eras. C. Nostalgia relieves Gen Z’s unease. D. Nostalgia brings about new challenges. 15. Which of the following best describes Gen Z according to the passage? A. Mindful. B. Passive. C. Obsessive. D. Trendy. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Enter Artificial Intelligence (AI), a powerhouse of innovation in the fitness universe.

My husband, our two children — Rummy, 14, and Willa, 12 — and I lost almost everything. Months later, we returned to see what was left. The neighborhood lay flat and empty. Only chimneys, walls, and our strangely surviving garage remained. Burnt trees stood like ghosts. There were no dogs, hardly any birds. People wandered silently down the middle of the empty streets. For my children, the loss was terrible — not just our home, but the trees they had climbed, their favorite restaurants, their friends’ houses. They became quiet and sad. I worried about how they would ever get through this. Then an image came to me: white-and-yellow daisies (雏菊) covering the blackened hills. I remembered Miss Rumphius, a children’s book about a woman who scattered flower seeds everywhere she went. An idea struck me. I told the kids, “What if we spread wildflower seeds in the ruined places? We could bring color back.” We decided to give it a try. If it worked, maybe we could share the idea with others in the community who were also struggling to find hope. I found a simple recipe for “seed bombs” — balls made of seeds, soil, and clay. In the yard of our rental house, we made our first set of seed balls. It was messy but fun. Rolling the sticky mixture between our hands felt strangely relaxing. We dried them carefully, wondering if anything would actually grow. On a cloudy summer day, we returned to our old address. The kids stood on the brick doorstep — the only thing left of our front door — and threw seed bombs into the empty space. Then we climbed down into the hole that had been our living room, where we had spent every Christmas. We placed a pile of seed bombs on the bare ground and crushed them with our boots, right where the hearth (炉灶) used to be. We waited, hoping for rain to come soon so that the seeds could sprout (发芽). 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: For the longest time, nothing happened. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The green sprouts changed everything for our family. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
