Yet for disabled, elderly, low-income individuals, or those without a smartphone or credit card, these services are practically out of reach. Such services tend to gather in wealthy urban areas, leaving users largely young, wealthy, and able-bodied. Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. For-profit shared mobility providers have largely failed to deliver on this, but various initiatives and projects are finding creative solutions to reach under-served communities. ●Buffalo’s E-Bike Library: Organizes training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety, with 71% of members being first-time riders. ●Mobitwin’s car-share service: Prioritizes email- and phone-based bookings over apps to extend reach to a wider share of the population lacking digital literacy, helping them access the service more easily. ● U.S. bike-sharing policy: Provides fare reductions for low-income groups, with cash payment options and non-smartphone access as key measures to broaden adoption, which has shown promise in increasing the use of shared bikes while decreasing the use of personal vehicles. ●Graz’s car-share initiatives: Add wheelchair-accessible vehicles, child seats, and station-based booking to suit diverse users’ trip-chaining needs, such as mid-route pickups and multi-destination trips. The future of shared mobility relies on making inclusive design a top priority. As Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact, puts it, “It’s about starting with people’s needs.” 21．(2.5分)Based on the chart, which barrier is reported most frequently by lower-income users? A．Lack of familiarity with the system. B．High cost of the system. C．Inaccessibility of locations. D．Lack of smartphone access. 22．(2.5分)Which initiative provides vehicles accessible to wheelchair users? A．Buffalo’s E-Bike Library. B．Mobitwin’s car-share service. C．U.S. bike-sharing policy. D．Graz’s car-share initiatives. 23．(2.5分)What will shape the future of shared mobility according to Esen Köse? A．Tech-based priority. B．Charity-run initiatives. C．Profit-driven providers. D．User-centered accessibility. （本题10分）In a textile recycling workshop in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu Province, a production line once requiring 30 workers to sweat for eight hours to process 15 tons of used clothing now operates with only two staff members. Behind this transformation is an automated textile sorting system developed by Databeyond Technology. This system integrates AI and hyperspectral (高光谱) imaging technology to identify the material and color of waste textiles, precisely identify blend ratios, and automatically sort out components such as cotton and nylon. This technology was named one of the Best Inventions of 2025 by Time magazine, making Databeyond Technology the only Chinese hi-tech enterprise honored in the recycling category. How does the AI-driven sorter work? It functions like an intelligent sorter with collaborative “eyes, brains and hands”. The system’s “sharp eyes” utilize a vision system with multiple sensors. As materials move along a conveyor belt (传送带) at 4 meters per second, the system — combining hyperspectral and laser sensors — captures the shape, color and material characteristics in real time. Behind these eyes is an ever-evolving “smart brain”, serving as a massive spectral database. The “dexterous hands” rely on a high-speed, precise system. A major challenge was the lightweight nature of materials, which easily shift due to airflow at high speeds. To solve this, the team added a positive pressure system above the belt. The airflow produced by the system acts like an invisible, steady hand that keeps light, thin materials flat and stable. As textile production relies heavily on resources like cotton, recycling reduces the pressure on raw material extraction. Given that the textile industry is a major consumer of water and energy, recycling significantly reduces carbon emissions, water pollution and landfill volume. Furthermore, because burning textiles generates greenhouse gases and placing them in landfills occupies land, recycling serves to ease environmental pressure at the end-of-life stage. In this process, intelligent sorters serve as a big help. Currently, Databeyond’s overseas market has expanded beyond Japan, Korea and Southeast Asian countries. The global demand for this kind of intelligent equipment is increasingly growing. In the future, Databeyond will continue to deepen the integration of AI and intelligent sorting, expanding its technology to more recycling scenarios — such as waste plastics, film and construction waste — accelerating the intelligent era for the global recycling industry. 24．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes the traditional way to recycle textiles? A．Cost-effective. B．Time-efficient. C．Back-breaking. D．Labor-saving. 25．(2.5分)Why was a positive pressure system added to the sorter? A．To improve the performance of AI. B．To capture clearer images in real time. C．To make the conveyor belt move faster. D．To prevent materials wrinkling or floating. 26．(2.5分)What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Production challenges. B．Environmental benefits. C．Technical drawbacks. D．Operating mechanism. 27．(2.5分)What can we infer about Databeyond from the last paragraph? A．It will focus more on overseas market. B．It will encourage heavy reliance on AI. C．It will dominate the global recycling industry. D．It will apply its technology to more waste types. （本题10分）Blind boxes are probabilistic products, which are products that allow consumers to purchase one of a set of products at random under specific conditions. B．F. Skinner, a famous American psychologist, believes that human behavior is mastered by external (外部的) factors. If the external stimulus (刺激物) is favorable to the person, the behavior will be repeated. The randomness of the blind box inspires consumers to buy, and for the buyer, the purchase of the blind box gains inner satisfaction. It is this unique experience that stimulates repeated purchases and thus addiction. The blind box market is popular with the “Generation Z” crowd. Most of them are only children, with strong loneliness and a desire for a sense of belonging. According to a survey, 57% of “Gen Z” said they “have to have what others have and don’t want to be disliked by their peers (同龄人) ”. The group of trendy players shares emotions, thus establishing more connections and boosting the identity of the group. Blind boxes can soften the awkwardness of interactions in social situations as they are integrated into people's daily lives. Probabilistic selling can be used as a tool to clearly identify target consumers and their needs. It seemed that Pop Mart’s popularity was an overnight success, but its first store opened in Beijing in 2010. Ever since, it has been exploring and upgrading the products through blind box marketing, finding the most popular items, to figure out product packages that suit the company’s sales strategies and make the company more and more welcomed by the market. While trying to stimulate consumption demand with such marketing, companies should be aware of the hidden risks. Blind box sellers should not hold the surprise tricks as a way to fool consumers, nor randomly include products in blind boxes. Consumers may not return for repeat purchases if they feel cheated once. Also, the knowledge of how to plan blind box combinations and how to sell them is critical. Once the wave of blind boxes dies down, a company without good products may never be able to catch the next wave. 28．(2.5分)What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．The unique experience of getting addicted. B．The internal satisfaction with the purchase. C．The external factors about repetitive behavior. D．The psychological mechanism behind blind boxes. 29．(2.5分)What role do blind boxes play in the “Generation Z” crowd? A．The social tools. B．The financial indicators. C．The confidence boosters. D．The emotional regulators. 30．(2.5分)What is the key to Pop Mart’s success? A．The careful planning of production. B．The interaction with target consumers. C．The constant change of sales strategies. D．The emphasis on products and marketing. 31．(2.5分)How can blind box sellers survive in the market? A．By publicizing the company to earn reputation. B．By using surprise tricks to attract consumers. C．By providing solid products that deliver value. D．By avoiding the hidden risks of false advertising. （本题10分）Not long ago, sharing your daily life online to make a living seemed strange. But today, the global influencer economy is growing quickly and had reached over $32 billion by 2025. It started from online famous-person culture and is promoted by social media like TikTok. This shows a big change in how brands (品牌), customers and influencers connect with each other. People trust influencers mainly because of a one-way emotional connection. Followers feel as if they know the influencer personally. This relationship is built through content update that looks real and close to daily life. This is different from well-designed advertisements (广告) made by brands. This sense of closeness makes influencers seem more believable than the brands they recommend. On the website 20Something, a 16-year-old girl described her favorite creator like this: “She’s not perfect. Sometimes she forgets to post. When she recommends something, it’s because she actually uses it. That’s why I believe her.” Some influencers are even creating their own brands, which fit naturally with their personal identity. These products feel like true reflections of who they are, rather than simple money-making projects. In today’s crowded online world, trust is highly valuable. Influencers don’t gain influence just by being famous; they build it by connecting closely with their followers and showing deep knowledge in areas like beauty, fitness or parenting. However, this trust can be easily broken. Problems such as unreal promotions can quickly damage the connection with followers. For brands, working with influencers also brings challenges. They must follow rules, adapt to changing social media algorithms (算法) and make sure influencers stay real. As the influencer economy continues to grow, trust remains the most important factor. Its future success will depend on better rules and clear guidelines. 32．(2.5分)What leads people to trust influencers according to the text? A．Influencers never recommend products. B．Influencers work with well-known brands. C．Influencers design their own advertisements. D．Influencers build emotional connection with fans. 33．(2.5分)Why does the author quote a 16-year-old girl in paragraph 2? A．To explain how to make real content. B．To support why people trust influencers. C．To introduce a popular online influencer. D．To show young people’s shopping habits. 34．(2.5分)What is a big challenge for brands working with influencers? A．Challenging social media rules. B．Checking influencers’ daily posts. C．Making sure influencers keep real. D．Meeting influencers’ growing needs. 35．(2.5分)What can we learn from the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．Honesty is the best strategy. C．East or west, home is best. D．Actions speak louder than words. （本题12.5分）The Lipstick Effect In 2020, the world fell into an economic downturn as the COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread closures to businesses. 36(2.5分) During such times of economic hardship, one may naturally expect that consumer markets will see a decline in expenditure (支出), as people everywhere feel restricted to making only “essential” purchases. However, a curious phenomenon known as the “lipstick effect” can often be observed. The lipstick effect refers to the phenomenon of consumers spending on small luxury goods even when an economic depression occurs. 37(2.5分) However, many still find the cash for purchases of small luxury items, such as lipstick. This phenomenon was termed the “lipstick effect” in 2001 by Leonard Lauder, chairman of luxury cosmetic company Estée Lauder. He had not only witnessed the phenomenon at work but also realized that it was especially evident in the case of lipstick and other cosmetic products. 38(2.5分) First and perhaps most obviously, consumers may simply wish to give themselves treats now and again to provide distractions from their financial insecurity. Another theory has to do with labour markets. Specifically, during the economic depression, job seeking tends to become more competitive. Thus, people seeking employment may perceive a need to spend money on certain products to improve their physical appearance. 39(2.5分) 40(2.5分) During the global depression of 2007-2009, sales of cosmetics in the United States increased by around 5%. Based on such data, it seems that even in the current insecure economic climate, the luxury cosmetics industry is one that will be sticking around. A．What does lipstick tell us about the economy? B．They do not have enough to spend on big-ticket luxury items. C．The lipstick effect is a behavior that reflects economic conditions and emotional states. D．So, how exactly do consumers who are short of cash justify making such purchases? E．By using products such as lipstick, they may feel more confident during job interviews. F．Whatever the causes of the lipstick effect, this phenomenon is no short-lived trend. G．Under these circumstances, millions of people suddenly found themselves facing financial insecurity. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）In order to save the environment, everybody has a role to play.

It warned that Earth might experience extreme changes and some areas might even stop getting snow. To encourage everyone to do something for the environment, Ms. Rosco announced a “Great Pollution Solution” contest to be held this Friday. Students would think of ways to recycle rubbish from the school. The prize for the most creative project was a toy — Rocket Racer sled (雪橇). Cezar couldn’t believe it. He had always wanted a Rocket Racer, and he decided to work alone and take immediate action. In the canteen, he spotted a pile of old trays (托盘), whose smooth surfaces gave him hope to begin his work. Cezar worked hard, but his progress was worrying. The first day saw his only creation a “tray hat” for sunshade, yet it was too large to stay balanced and kept sliding over his eyes. By the second day, he had attempted a “tray chair”, but it fell apart when he sat on it. Feeling defeated, he watched other teams making great progress with paper cups and plastic bottles. With only one day left, waves of hopelessness washed over him. Cezar lay awake that night, trying to think of a new idea. No ideas came. The next morning, the ground was covered with thick snow. Usually, this would have excited him, but now it only deepened his sadness. “I’ll never win that sled!” he said to himself, grabbing a tray and throwing it across the yard in despair. To his surprise, the tray didn’t just land; it slid gracefully all the way to the neighbor’s house. Cezar’s eyes widened as a new idea began to take shape. He ran all the way to school, and gathered the rest of his trays. Racing against time, he drilled holes and tied the trays with ropes into a “tray-train” strong enough to carry some kids. By then, the contest had already begun. In the snowy playground, classmates took turns to show their creative projects: some holding pretty paper-cup flowers, others presenting plastic-bottle robots, and a few even sharing cardboard birdhouses. 注意： 1. 写作词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At last, it was Cezar’s turn to display his train. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As kids got off the train, Ms. Rosco began to announce the winner. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试——Unit 3 Conservation（适中版01）（解析版） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）What will the speakers do this Saturday?

C．The history of yusao in China. 【答案】18．C 19．C 20．B 【原文】 In English, fishwife is an unkind term for a woman with a loud voice. But on Chengdu Island in Zhejiang, China, fishermen’s wives yu sao have shown the world that their strong voices can be a real force for good. In Chinese fishing communities yu sao were traditionally responsible for fishing safety and for solving arguments between fishermen. As such they’re highly respected. So when Hu Sangsu began speaking up about ocean pollution, people listened. Raised on the island, Hu had noticed fish numbers falling and believed pollution was the cause. Without action the future of Chengdu Island’s 13,000 people was in danger. So Hu began encouraging fishermen to collect plastic rubbish and return it to land. Volunteers then sort and process it to sell to recycling companies. Since 2020, over 110,000 plastic bottles and over 80,000 boat batteries have been collected. Now fishermen report improvements in fish numbers. And while the work can be tough, the yu sao can make more money each month for their efforts. It’s been a real win-win for the whole community. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Shared mobility: Making travel easier for all In major cities across Europe and the US, shared bikes and cars seem to be everywhere. Yet for disabled, elderly, low-income individuals, or those without a smartphone or credit card, these services are practically out of reach. Such services tend to gather in wealthy urban areas, leaving users largely young, wealthy, and able-bodied. Shared mobility could be a key part of a more sustainable transportation system. But to be most effective, it needs to include everyone. For-profit shared mobility providers have largely failed to deliver on this, but various initiatives and projects are finding creative solutions to reach under-served communities. ●Buffalo’s E-Bike Library: Organizes training, group rides and educational events to familiarize people with cycling culture and safety, with 71% of members being first-time riders. ●Mobitwin’s car-share service: Prioritizes email- and phone-based bookings over apps to extend reach to a wider share of the population lacking digital literacy, helping them access the service more easily. ● U.S. bike-sharing policy: Provides fare reductions for low-income groups, with cash payment options and non-smartphone access as key measures to broaden adoption, which has shown promise in increasing the use of shared bikes while decreasing the use of personal vehicles. ●Graz’s car-share initiatives: Add wheelchair-accessible vehicles, child seats, and station-based booking to suit diverse users’ trip-chaining needs, such as mid-route pickups and multi-destination trips. The future of shared mobility relies on making inclusive design a top priority. As Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact, puts it, “It’s about starting with people’s needs.” 21．(2.5分)Based on the chart, which barrier is reported most frequently by lower-income users? A．Lack of familiarity with the system. B．High cost of the system. C．Inaccessibility of locations. D．Lack of smartphone access. 22．(2.5分)Which initiative provides vehicles accessible to wheelchair users? A．Buffalo’s E-Bike Library. B．Mobitwin’s car-share service. C．U.S. bike-sharing policy. D．Graz’s car-share initiatives. 23．(2.5分)What will shape the future of shared mobility according to Esen Köse? A．Tech-based priority. B．Charity-run initiatives. C．Profit-driven providers. D．User-centered accessibility. 【答案】21．B 22．D 23．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了共享出行服务在欧美城市的普及现状及其面临的公平性问题，分析了不同收入群体使用共享出行时遇到的障碍，并列举了多个旨在提高服务包容性的创新举措。 【详解】21．细节理解题。根据文章图表中“Percent reporting barrier”部分的数据可知，低收入群体中“High cost of the system”这一障碍的反馈比例为88%，远高于其他两项，是报告频率最高的障碍。 22．细节理解题。根据“Graz’s car-share initiatives”部分中的“Add wheelchair-accessible vehicles...(增加可供轮椅使用者乘坐的无障碍车辆……)”可知，格拉茨的汽车共享计划提供了可供轮椅使用者使用的车辆。 23．细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“As Esen Köse, project manager at Mpact, puts it, ‘It’s about starting with people’s needs.’(正如Mpact的项目经理Esen Köse所说：“关键是从人们的需求出发。”)”可知，共享出行的未来将以“以用户为中心的可达性”为核心。 （本题10分）In a textile recycling workshop in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu Province, a production line once requiring 30 workers to sweat for eight hours to process 15 tons of used clothing now operates with only two staff members. Behind this transformation is an automated textile sorting system developed by Databeyond Technology. This system integrates AI and hyperspectral (高光谱) imaging technology to identify the material and color of waste textiles, precisely identify blend ratios, and automatically sort out components such as cotton and nylon. This technology was named one of the Best Inventions of 2025 by Time magazine, making Databeyond Technology the only Chinese hi-tech enterprise honored in the recycling category. How does the AI-driven sorter work? It functions like an intelligent sorter with collaborative “eyes, brains and hands”. The system’s “sharp eyes” utilize a vision system with multiple sensors. As materials move along a conveyor belt (传送带) at 4 meters per second, the system — combining hyperspectral and laser sensors — captures the shape, color and material characteristics in real time. Behind these eyes is an ever-evolving “smart brain”, serving as a massive spectral database. The “dexterous hands” rely on a high-speed, precise system. A major challenge was the lightweight nature of materials, which easily shift due to airflow at high speeds. To solve this, the team added a positive pressure system above the belt. The airflow produced by the system acts like an invisible, steady hand that keeps light, thin materials flat and stable. As textile production relies heavily on resources like cotton, recycling reduces the pressure on raw material extraction. Given that the textile industry is a major consumer of water and energy, recycling significantly reduces carbon emissions, water pollution and landfill volume. Furthermore, because burning textiles generates greenhouse gases and placing them in landfills occupies land, recycling serves to ease environmental pressure at the end-of-life stage. In this process, intelligent sorters serve as a big help. Currently, Databeyond’s overseas market has expanded beyond Japan, Korea and Southeast Asian countries. The global demand for this kind of intelligent equipment is increasingly growing. In the future, Databeyond will continue to deepen the integration of AI and intelligent sorting, expanding its technology to more recycling scenarios — such as waste plastics, film and construction waste — accelerating the intelligent era for the global recycling industry. 24．(2.5分)Which of the following best describes the traditional way to recycle textiles? A．Cost-effective. B．Time-efficient. C．Back-breaking. D．Labor-saving. 25．(2.5分)Why was a positive pressure system added to the sorter? A．To improve the performance of AI. B．To capture clearer images in real time. C．To make the conveyor belt move faster. D．To prevent materials wrinkling or floating. 26．(2.5分)What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A．Production challenges. B．Environmental benefits. C．Technical drawbacks. D．Operating mechanism. 27．(2.5分)What can we infer about Databeyond from the last paragraph? A．It will focus more on overseas market. B．It will encourage heavy reliance on AI. C．It will dominate the global recycling industry. D．It will apply its technology to more waste types. 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．B 27．D 【导语】文章主要介绍江苏一企业研发的AI智能纺织分拣系统，介绍其工作原理、环保价值与未来推广规划。 【详解】24．推理判断题。根据第一段中的“In a textile recycling workshop in Zhangjiagang, Jiangsu Province, a production line once requiring 30 workers to sweat for eight hours to process 15 tons of used clothing now operates with only two staff members.(在江苏省张家港的一家纺织品回收车间，一条生产线从前需要30名工人辛苦劳作八小时处理15吨旧衣物，如今仅需两名员工操作。)”可知，传统纺织回收方式耗人费力、劳动强度大，十分辛苦。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A major challenge was the lightweight nature of materials, which easily shift due to airflow at high speeds. To solve this, the team added a positive pressure system above the belt.(一大难题是物料质地轻薄，易受高速气流影响发生移位，为此研发团队在传送带上方加装了正压系统。)”以及“The airflow produced by the system acts like an invisible, steady hand that keeps light, thin materials flat and stable. (该系统产生的气流如同一只无形且平稳的手，让轻薄材质保持平整稳固。)”可知，加装正压系统是为了避免物料漂浮、褶皱移位。 26．主旨大意题。通读第四段，结合第四段中的“As textile production relies heavily on resources like cotton, recycling reduces the pressure on raw material extraction. Given that the textile industry is a major consumer of water and energy, recycling significantly reduces carbon emissions, water pollution and landfill volume. Furthermore, because burning textiles generates greenhouse gases and placing them in landfills occupies land, recycling serves to ease environmental pressure at the end-of-life stage. In this process, intelligent sorters serve as a big help. (由于纺织生产高度依赖棉花等资源，回收利用能够减轻原材料开采的压力。鉴于纺织行业是水资源与能源的消耗大户，回收可大幅减少碳排放、水污染及垃圾填埋量。此外，焚烧纺织物会产生温室气体，填埋处理又会占用土地，因此回收有助于缓解纺织品报废阶段的环境压力。在这一流程中，智能分拣设备发挥着重要作用。)”可知，本段集中讲述纺织品回收利用带来的各类环保益处。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“In the future, Databeyond will continue to deepen the integration of AI and intelligent sorting, expanding its technology to more recycling scenarios — such as waste plastics, film and construction waste — accelerating the intelligent era for the global recycling industry. (未来，德本智能将持续深化人工智能与智能分拣技术的融合，把相关技术拓展至废旧塑料、薄膜、建筑垃圾等更多回收场景，助力全球回收行业加速迈入智能化时代。)”可知，该公司会将此项技术应用于更多种类的垃圾回收处理中。 （本题10分）Blind boxes are probabilistic products, which are products that allow consumers to purchase one of a set of products at random under specific conditions. B．F. Skinner, a famous American psychologist, believes that human behavior is mastered by external (外部的) factors. If the external stimulus (刺激物) is favorable to the person, the behavior will be repeated. The randomness of the blind box inspires consumers to buy, and for the buyer, the purchase of the blind box gains inner satisfaction. It is this unique experience that stimulates repeated purchases and thus addiction. The blind box market is popular with the “Generation Z” crowd. Most of them are only children, with strong loneliness and a desire for a sense of belonging. According to a survey, 57% of “Gen Z” said they “have to have what others have and don’t want to be disliked by their peers (同龄人) ”. The group of trendy players shares emotions, thus establishing more connections and boosting the identity of the group. Blind boxes can soften the awkwardness of interactions in social situations as they are integrated into people's daily lives. Probabilistic selling can be used as a tool to clearly identify target consumers and their needs. It seemed that Pop Mart’s popularity was an overnight success, but its first store opened in Beijing in 2010. Ever since, it has been exploring and upgrading the products through blind box marketing, finding the most popular items, to figure out product packages that suit the company’s sales strategies and make the company more and more welcomed by the market. While trying to stimulate consumption demand with such marketing, companies should be aware of the hidden risks. Blind box sellers should not hold the surprise tricks as a way to fool consumers, nor randomly include products in blind boxes. Consumers may not return for repeat purchases if they feel cheated once. Also, the knowledge of how to plan blind box combinations and how to sell them is critical. Once the wave of blind boxes dies down, a company without good products may never be able to catch the next wave. 28．(2.5分)What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．The unique experience of getting addicted. B．The internal satisfaction with the purchase. C．The external factors about repetitive behavior. D．The psychological mechanism behind blind boxes. 29．(2.5分)What role do blind boxes play in the “Generation Z” crowd? A．The social tools. B．The financial indicators. C．The confidence boosters. D．The emotional regulators. 30．(2.5分)What is the key to Pop Mart’s success? A．The careful planning of production. B．The interaction with target consumers. C．The constant change of sales strategies. D．The emphasis on products and marketing. 31．(2.5分)How can blind box sellers survive in the market? A．By publicizing the company to earn reputation. B．By using surprise tricks to attract consumers. C．By providing solid products that deliver value. D．By avoiding the hidden risks of false advertising. 【答案】28．D 29．A 30．D 31．C 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要分析了盲盒受欢迎的心理学机制、其在Z世代中的社交功能、泡泡玛特等品牌的成功原因，以及盲盒商家需注意的风险与生存关键。 【详解】28．主旨大意题。根据第二段中“The randomness of the blind box inspires consumers to buy, and for the buyer, the purchase of the blind box gains inner satisfaction. It is this unique experience that stimulates repeated purchases and thus addiction.(盲盒的随机性激发消费者购买，对购买者而言，购买盲盒能获得内心满足。正是这种独特体验刺激了重复购买，进而导致成瘾)”可知，该段解释了盲盒促使消费者重复购买并成瘾的心理层面原因，即盲盒背后的心理机制。 故选D。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段中“The group of trendy players shares emotions, thus establishing more connections and boosting the identity of the group. Blind boxes can soften the awkwardness of interactions in social situations as they are integrated into people’s daily lives.(潮流玩家群体分享情感，从而建立更多联系，增强群体认同感。随着盲盒融入人们的日常生活，它们能够缓解社交场景中互动的尴尬)”可知，盲盒能帮助Z世代缓解社交尴尬、促进群体交流，起到了社交工具的作用。 故选A。 30．细节理解题。根据第四段“It seemed that Pop Mart’s popularity was an overnight success, but its first store opened in Beijing in 2010. Ever since, it has been exploring and upgrading the products through blind box marketing, finding the most popular items, to figure out product packages that suit the company’s sales strategies and make the company more and more welcomed by the market.(泡泡玛特的走红看似是一夜成功，但它的第一家门店早在2010年就已在北京开业。此后，通过盲盒营销对产品进行探索和升级，找到最受欢迎的产品，找出适合公司销售策略的产品包装，使公司越来越受到市场的欢迎)”可知，泡泡玛特的成功既在于“探索和升级产品”（重视产品），也在于“通过盲盒营销”（重视营销），二者结合是其成功关键。故选D。 31．细节理解题。根据第五段“Blind box sellers should not hold the surprise tricks as a way to fool consumers, nor randomly include products in blind boxes.(盲盒销售者不应将惊喜手段当作欺骗消费者的方式，也不应随意在盲盒中放置产品)”以及“Once the wave of blind boxes dies down, a company without good products may never be able to catch the next wave.(一旦盲盒热潮退去，没有好产品的公司可能永远无法抓住下一波机遇)”可知，盲盒商家要在市场中生存，关键是提供优质、有价值的产品。 故选C。 （本题10分）Not long ago, sharing your daily life online to make a living seemed strange. But today, the global influencer economy is growing quickly and had reached over $32 billion by 2025. It started from online famous-person culture and is promoted by social media like TikTok. This shows a big change in how brands (品牌), customers and influencers connect with each other. People trust influencers mainly because of a one-way emotional connection. Followers feel as if they know the influencer personally. This relationship is built through content update that looks real and close to daily life. This is different from well-designed advertisements (广告) made by brands. This sense of closeness makes influencers seem more believable than the brands they recommend. On the website 20Something, a 16-year-old girl described her favorite creator like this: “She’s not perfect. Sometimes she forgets to post. When she recommends something, it’s because she actually uses it. That’s why I believe her.” Some influencers are even creating their own brands, which fit naturally with their personal identity. These products feel like true reflections of who they are, rather than simple money-making projects. In today’s crowded online world, trust is highly valuable. Influencers don’t gain influence just by being famous; they build it by connecting closely with their followers and showing deep knowledge in areas like beauty, fitness or parenting. However, this trust can be easily broken. Problems such as unreal promotions can quickly damage the connection with followers. For brands, working with influencers also brings challenges. They must follow rules, adapt to changing social media algorithms (算法) and make sure influencers stay real. As the influencer economy continues to grow, trust remains the most important factor. Its future success will depend on better rules and clear guidelines. 32．(2.5分)What leads people to trust influencers according to the text? A．Influencers never recommend products. B．Influencers work with well-known brands. C．Influencers design their own advertisements. D．Influencers build emotional connection with fans. 33．(2.5分)Why does the author quote a 16-year-old girl in paragraph 2? A．To explain how to make real content. B．To support why people trust influencers. C．To introduce a popular online influencer. D．To show young people’s shopping habits. 34．(2.5分)What is a big challenge for brands working with influencers? A．Challenging social media rules. B．Checking influencers’ daily posts. C．Making sure influencers keep real. D．Meeting influencers’ growing needs. 35．(2.5分)What can we learn from the text? A．Practice makes perfect. B．Honesty is the best strategy. C．East or west, home is best. D．Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】32．D 33．B 34．C 35．B 【导语】文章主要介绍了网红经济的发展现状，分析了人们信任网红的原因以及品牌与网红合作面临的挑战。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“People trust influencers mainly because of a one-way emotional connection. Followers feel as if they know the influencer personally. (人们信任网红主要是因为一种单向的情感联系。粉丝们感觉好像他们亲自认识这个网红)”可知，网红通过与粉丝建立情感联系来赢得信任。 33．推理判断题。根据第二段中“This sense of closeness makes influencers seem more believable than the brands they recommend. On the website 20Something, a 16-year-old girl described her favorite creator like this: “She’s not perfect. Sometimes she forgets to post. When she recommends something, it’s because she actually uses it. That’s why I believe her.” (这种亲近感使网红看起来比他们所推荐的品牌更可信。在20Something网站上，一位16岁的女孩这样描述她最喜欢的创作者：“她并不完美。有时她会忘记发布内容。当她推荐某样东西时，是因为她真的在用。这就是我相信她的原因。”)”可知，作者引用一个16岁女孩的话是为了支持人们因为亲近感而信任网红的这一观点。 34．细节理解题。根据第五段中“For brands, working with influencers also brings challenges. They must follow rules, adapt to changing social media algorithms (算法) and make sure influencers stay real. (对于品牌来说，与网红合作也带来了挑战。他们必须遵守规则，适应不断变化的社交媒体算法，并确保网红保持真实)”可知，品牌与网红合作面临的一大挑战是确保网红保持真实。 35．推理判断题。通读全文，结合第四段“In today’s crowded online world, trust is highly valuable. Influencers don’t gain influence just by being famous; they build it by connecting closely with their followers and showing deep knowledge in areas like beauty, fitness or parenting. However, this trust can be easily broken. Problems such as unreal promotions can quickly damage the connection with followers. (在当今拥挤的网络世界中，信任是非常有价值的。网红不仅仅因为出名而获得影响力；他们通过与粉丝建立紧密联系，并在美容、健身或育儿等领域展现深厚的知识来构建影响力。然而，这种信任很容易被打破。虚假推广等问题会迅速破坏与粉丝的联系)”以及第五段中“As the influencer economy continues to grow, trust remains the most important factor. (随着网红经济的持续增长，信任仍然是最重要的因素)”可知，文章强调了信任在网红经济中的核心地位，并指出网红通过真实、贴近日常的内容建立信任，而虚假推广会破坏这种信任。因此，文章传达的核心信息是“Honesty is the best strategy.(诚实是最好的策略)”。 （本题12.5分）The Lipstick Effect In 2020, the world fell into an economic downturn as the COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread closures to businesses. 36(2.5分) During such times of economic hardship, one may naturally expect that consumer markets will see a decline in expenditure (支出), as people everywhere feel restricted to making only “essential” purchases. However, a curious phenomenon known as the “lipstick effect” can often be observed. The lipstick effect refers to the phenomenon of consumers spending on small luxury goods even when an economic depression occurs. 37(2.5分) However, many still find the cash for purchases of small luxury items, such as lipstick. This phenomenon was termed the “lipstick effect” in 2001 by Leonard Lauder, chairman of luxury cosmetic company Estée Lauder. He had not only witnessed the phenomenon at work but also realized that it was especially evident in the case of lipstick and other cosmetic products. 38(2.5分) First and perhaps most obviously, consumers may simply wish to give themselves treats now and again to provide distractions from their financial insecurity. Another theory has to do with labour markets. Specifically, during the economic depression, job seeking tends to become more competitive. Thus, people seeking employment may perceive a need to spend money on certain products to improve their physical appearance. 39(2.5分) 40(2.5分) During the global depression of 2007-2009, sales of cosmetics in the United States increased by around 5%. Based on such data, it seems that even in the current insecure economic climate, the luxury cosmetics industry is one that will be sticking around. A．What does lipstick tell us about the economy? B．They do not have enough to spend on big-ticket luxury items. C．The lipstick effect is a behavior that reflects economic conditions and emotional states. D．So, how exactly do consumers who are short of cash justify making such purchases? E．By using products such as lipstick, they may feel more confident during job interviews. F．Whatever the causes of the lipstick effect, this phenomenon is no short-lived trend. G．Under these circumstances, millions of people suddenly found themselves facing financial insecurity. 【答案】36．G 37．B 38．D 39．E 40．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在经济萧条期间，消费者倾向于购买小奢侈品如口红的现象，即“口红效应”，及其背后的心理和市场表现。 【详解】36．由上文“In 2020, the world was fell into an economic down turn as the COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread closures to businesses. (2020年，由于COVID-19大流行导致企业普遍关闭，世界陷入了经济衰退)”可知，本空要说跟“经济衰退对人们影响”有关的话题，由下文“During such times of economic hardship, one may naturally expect that consumer markets will see a decline in expenditure, as people everywhere feel restricted to making only “essential” purchases. (在这样的经济困难时期，人们可能会自然地预期消费市场将看到支出的下降，因为各地的人们都感到只能购买“必需品”)”可知，本句要表达经济衰退对人们消费态度的影响，故G选项“Under these circumstances, millions of people suddenly found themselves facing financial insecurity. (在这种情况下，数以百万计的人突然发现自己面临着经济上的不安全)”承接上文提到的疫情导致经济衰退的情况，并引出下文，符合语境。故选G。 37．由上文“The lipstick effect refers to the phenomenon of consumers spending on small luxury goods even when an economic depression occurs. (“口红效应”是指即使经济不景气，消费者也会购买小型奢侈品的现象)”可知，本空要说跟“购买小型奢侈品的原因”有关的话题，由下文“However, many still find the cash for purchases of small luxury items, such as lipstick. (然而，许多人仍然会用现金购买口红等小型奢侈品)”可知，本句要与后文构成转折。故B选项“They do not have enough to spend on big-ticket luxury items. (他们没有足够的钱购买高价奢侈品)”与下文形成对比，先说明人们在经济萧条时没钱买大件奢侈品，接着转折说仍会买小奢侈品，能承上启下，符合语境。故选B。 38．由下文“First and perhaps most obviously, consumers may simply wish to give themselves treats now and again to provide distractions from their financial insecurity. Another theory has to do with labour markets. Specifically, during the economic depression, job seeking tends to become more competitive. Thus, people seeking employment may perceive a need to spend money on certain products to improve their physical appearance. (首先，或许也是最明显的一点是，消费者可能只是希望时不时地犒劳一下自己，以分散自己对财务不安全感的注意力。另一个理论与劳动力市场有关。具体来说，在经济萧条时期，求职的竞争变得更加激烈。因此，寻找工作的人可能会觉得有必要花钱购买某些产品来改善他们的外表)”可知，本空要说跟“此类购买原因”有关的话题，故D选项“So, how exactly do consumers who are short of cash justify making such purchases? (那么，现金短缺的消费者究竟如何证明进行此类购买是合理的呢?)”提出了一个关于消费者心理的问题，引出下文对原因的讨论，符合语境。故选D。 39．由上文“Thus, people seeking employment may perceive a need to spend money on certain products to improve their physical appearance. (因此，寻找工作的人可能会觉得有必要花钱购买某些产品来改善他们的外表)”可知，本空要说跟“改善他们的外表的好处”有关的话题，故E选项“By using products such as lipstick, they may feel more confident during job interviews. (通过使用口红等产品，他们可能会在求职面试中感到更加自信)”进一步说明了使用口红等产品对求职者的好处，与上文关于求职的内容相呼应，符合语境。故选E。 40．由下文“During the global depression of 2007-2009, sales of cosmetics in the United States increased by around 5%. Based on such data, it seems that even in the current insecure economic climate, the luxury cosmetics industry is one that will be sticking around.(在2007-2009年的全球经济大萧条期间，美国化妆品的销售额增长了约5%。根据这些数据，即使在当前不稳定的经济环境下，奢侈品化妆品行业似乎也将继续存在)”可知，本段既回顾了2007-2009年的事情，也提到了现在的经济状况下奢侈品化妆品的情况，故F选项“Whatever the causes of the lipstick effect, this phenomenon is no short-lived trend. (不管造成口红效应的原因是什么，这种现象都不是短暂的趋势)”总结了段落内容，引出下文用数据证明口红效应不是短期趋势，符合语境。故选F。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）In order to save the environment, everybody has a role to play.

It warned that Earth might experience extreme changes and some areas might even stop getting snow. To encourage everyone to do something for the environment, Ms. Rosco announced a “Great Pollution Solution” contest to be held this Friday. Students would think of ways to recycle rubbish from the school. The prize for the most creative project was a toy — Rocket Racer sled (雪橇). Cezar couldn’t believe it. He had always wanted a Rocket Racer, and he decided to work alone and take immediate action. In the canteen, he spotted a pile of old trays (托盘), whose smooth surfaces gave him hope to begin his work. Cezar worked hard, but his progress was worrying. The first day saw his only creation a “tray hat” for sunshade, yet it was too large to stay balanced and kept sliding over his eyes. By the second day, he had attempted a “tray chair”, but it fell apart when he sat on it. Feeling defeated, he watched other teams making great progress with paper cups and plastic bottles. With only one day left, waves of hopelessness washed over him. Cezar lay awake that night, trying to think of a new idea. No ideas came. The next morning, the ground was covered with thick snow. Usually, this would have excited him, but now it only deepened his sadness. “I’ll never win that sled!” he said to himself, grabbing a tray and throwing it across the yard in despair. To his surprise, the tray didn’t just land; it slid gracefully all the way to the neighbor’s house. Cezar’s eyes widened as a new idea began to take shape. He ran all the way to school, and gathered the rest of his trays. Racing against time, he drilled holes and tied the trays with ropes into a “tray-train” strong enough to carry some kids. By then, the contest had already begun. In the snowy playground, classmates took turns to show their creative projects: some holding pretty paper-cup flowers, others presenting plastic-bottle robots, and a few even sharing cardboard birdhouses. 注意： 1. 写作词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At last, it was Cezar’s turn to display his train. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As kids got off the train, Ms. Rosco began to announce the winner. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: At last, it was Cezar’s turn to display his train. “This isn’t just a recycled project,” Cezar announced, his voice gaining confidence. “It’s a practical solution for snowy days.” He invited three classmates to sit on the connected trays. With a gentle push, the “tray-train” slid smoothly and swiftly across the playground, leaving a neat track in the fresh snow. The students watched in awe, then erupted into cheers and applause. The useless trays were now a functional sled, turning the weather into an advantage. Cezar’s earlier failures faded before this clever, last-minute adaptation. As kids got off the train, Ms. Rosco began to announce the winner. “The contest was about creativity, practicality, and spirit,” she said. “One project not only repurposed waste but also turned a problem — today’s heavy snow — into community fun. The winner is Cezar!” The crowd cheered wildly. Cezar, blushing with pride, accepted the Rocket Racer sled. Holding the shiny new sled in one hand and touching his humble tray-train with the other, he realized the true prize wasn’t the toy, but the lesson: perseverance and observation could transform despair into a breakthrough. His discarded trays had ultimately carried him to victory. 【导语】本文以一场比赛为线索展开，讲述了Rosco女士举办回收创意比赛，Cezar渴望赢得奖品。他用旧托盘尝试制作，却接连失败。比赛日突降大雪，他扔掉托盘，却发现它在雪上滑行顺畅。灵感乍现，他迅速将多个托盘连成“雪橇列车”。展示时，同学们乘坐滑行，全场惊叹。他最终获胜，并领悟到：细心观察，就能将困境变为惊喜。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“最后，轮到Cezar展示他的列车模型了。”可知，第一段可描写Cezar认真介绍自己的模型，再邀请同学体验在列车上滑行，滑行非常顺利，模型得到大家的赞叹。 ②由第二段首句内容“当孩子们下列车后，Rosco女士便开始宣布获胜者名单。”可知，第二段可描写Rosco女士肯定Cezar项目的价值，宣布Cezar为获胜者，Cezar激动领奖，并领悟到细心观察能将困境变为惊喜。 2. 续写线索：轮到Cezar展示——Cezar介绍模型——模型效果出彩——Rosco女士宣布名单——Cezar得到认可并获奖——Cezar的领悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①宣布：announce/declare/give out ②把……变成：turn sth. into/change sth. into/transform sth. into ③消失：fade/disappear/vanish ④抓着：hold/grasp/clutch 情绪类 ①惊叹：awe/wonder/amazement ②绝望：despair/desperation/depression 【点睛】[高分句型1] With a gentle push, the “tray-train” slid smoothly and swiftly across the playground, leaving a neat track in the fresh snow.
