2026-2027学年九月阶段考反馈练习 一、阅读理解 (2026·厦门·二模) Do fun activities on Pi Day Pi Day is marked every year on March 14 by scientists, mathematicians, and schools. Pi is a never-ending number or ratio (比率). The first three digits of pi are 3. 14, which is why the holiday is celebrated on March 14. In 2009, the US House of Representatives established it as National Pi Day. Here’s how to celebrate that day and more. Play pi games You can challenge yourself to see how many digits of pi you can memorize. The first 16 digits, which NASA engineers use to make accurate calculations, are 3. 141592653589793. You could also play a beanbag game. Draw a large circle on the ground in chalk and label it with the first few numbers of pi: 3, 1, and 4. Toss (投掷) beanbags and try to land them on the digits of pi in order, starting with 3. Have a feast Get into the spirit of Pi Day with a special meal that features round objects. For example, you might have bagels, doughnuts, pancakes, pizza, tortillas, or burgers. Another way to celebrate Pi Day is to bake a pie to share with family and friends. Pi in everyday life Humans have used pi to build, explore, and advance technology. Architecture Engineers use pi to ensure safety and stability when designing curved bridges and tunnels and in design elements like arches and round columns. Space exploration Scientists use pi to map the surface area of planets, keep the wheels of rovers (探测器) on Mars turning, and measure craters on moons. Navigation Global positioning systems (GPS), like you might find in apps that give directions, use pi to calculate specific locations on Earth. 1. Why is March 14 celebrated as Pi Day? A. To mark the passage of a 2009 bill. B. To reflect the never-ending ratio of 3/14. C. To correspond to the starting numbers of pi. D. To honor the birth of a great mathematician. 2. Which activity mainly challenges your memory? A. Calculating the area of a chalk circle. B. Reciting a long string of pi’s numbers. C. Tracking the landing order of beanbags. D. Selecting round-shaped food for a meal. 3. Which is an application of pi in everyday life? A. Measuring the weight of Mars rovers. B. Adjusting GPS positioning in location apps. C. Improving the structural soundness of bridges. D. Increasing the load-bearing strength of columns. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了圆周率日（Pi Day）。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The first three digits of pi are 3. 14, which is why the holiday is celebrated on March 14.(圆周率的前三位数字是3.14，这就是为什么这个节日在3月14日庆祝)”可知，3月14日被定为圆周率日是因为它与圆周率的起始数字相对应，故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“You can challenge yourself to see how many digits of pi you can memorize.(你可以挑战自己，看看能记住多少位圆周率数字)”可知，背诵一长串圆周率数字主要挑战的是记忆力，故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Architecture Engineers use pi to ensure safety and stability when designing curved bridges and tunnels and in design elements like arches and round columns.(建筑工程师在设计弯曲的桥梁和隧道以及拱门和圆柱等设计元素时，使用圆周率来确保安全性和稳定性)”可知，圆周率在日常生活中的应用是提高桥梁的结构稳固性，故选C项。 (2026·深圳·二模) This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing. Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road. On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief. Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded. Until suddenly, time stood still. We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind. Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome! On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind. Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill.” Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation. 4. How did the author cross the bridge? A. By taking mindful steps. B. By rushing across it bravely. C. By using her sense of direction. D. By having the guide drag her over. 5. Why did the bears leave? A. They were attracted by the natural setting. B. They were afraid of the noise of the rapids. C. They were surprised at the group’s actions. D. They were threatened by the guide’s rocks. 6. Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf? A. To pick up some souvenirs. B. To reflect on the journey. C. To symbolize their teamwork. D. To check their observation skills. 7. What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph mean? A. Past the peak of youth. B. Too high to go down. C. Out of place in society. D. Beyond physical limits. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者与两位年过七旬的朋友的四天荒野探险经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs.(我盯着她的靴子，小心翼翼地沿着摇晃的圆木慢慢挪动。)”可知，作者盯着向导的靴子，小心翼翼地一步步走过摇晃的圆木桥。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段的句子“As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away.(当它们开始向我们走来时，我们缓过神来，大声呼喊并挥舞登山杖。它们吃了一惊，停了下来，然后慢慢转身离开。)”可知，熊被作者一行人的呼喊和挥杖动作吓到，因此转身离开。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的句子“On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind.(在我们旅行的最后一个早晨，我们在森林里安静而沉思地走了一段之后，被要求带回一根“有意义的”木棍、岩石和树叶来分享哪些会“留存”在我们心中，哪些“震撼”了我们，以及我们愿意“放下”什么)”可知，向导通过这些自然物品引导大家反思旅程中的收获与感悟。故选B项。 【7题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段的语境，向导称赞她们的健康和积极态度，并表示希望自己三四十年后也能像她们一样。这些意外的话语温暖了作者的心，缓解了她对“over the hill”的恐惧。结合前文提到的“we were all in our seventies(我们都七十多岁了)”以及“ageing(变老)”这一主题，“over the hill”指的是已过青春巅峰、年老体衰的状态。故选A项。 (2026·温州·二模) The room looks like your typical office: white walls, low ceilings, gray carpet worn thin from years of foot traffic. But for this vacant (空着的) office outside Dupont Circle in Washington, D.C., real estate developers see potential. Cities across the U.S. are struggling with two problems: too much empty office space and not enough housing. Nationally, office vacancy rates reached roughly 20% in 2024, after years of employees working from home. At the same time, the national housing shortage is in the millions. Cities like D.C., are now betting that by turning empty offices into homes, one crisis can help solve the other. A project in D.C., which broke ground last month, is the largest such conversion (转化) in the city to date. The overall structure of the buildings will remain the same, but with major additions: a lighter-colored exterior will replace the gray concrete from the 1960s, and old inefficient windows will be replaced by larger ones that let in more light per unit. Plans include luxuries such as a pool and a dog park, with projected rent around $4,000 per month. Yet 60 units will be set aside as affordable housing. “We would love to do more,” says Matt Pestronk, the president of a development company, “but unfortunately, almost all capital seeks a return. This was as much as we could afford to do.” “The scale of the shortage far outpaces what conversions can provide.” says Tracy Loh, a fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies adaptive reuse of old buildings. But she argues that these projects still matter, “It does kill two birds with one stone, in terms of providing some housing supply.” And it tends to create housing in central, transit-accessible areas that are in high demand. The decline of manufacturing (制造业) in the late 20th century offers a glimpse of what comes next. When shifts happen in the economy and society, the built environment must change to match contemporary demand. Just as empty factory floors became trendy apartments, today’s empty office spaces are turning into stylish kitchens and bedrooms. 8. What are cities like DC trying to do? A. Repurpose empty offices. B. Tear down unused buildings. C. Build housing in suburbs. D. Encourage working from home. 9. What can be inferred about the project in paragraph 3? A. It requires structural changes. B. It targets low-income families. C. It is funded by the government. D. It balances profit and social needs. 10. What does Tracy Loh think of the conversion? A. Realistic. B. Far-reaching. C. Demanding. D. Short-sighted. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Cities Are Caught in Crisis B. Housing Demand Is Crying for More C. Offices Are Becoming Homes D. Manufacturing Is Gaining a Second Life 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍美国城市将闲置办公楼改造为住宅，以此同时解决办公用房空置和住房短缺两大难题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Cities like D.C., are now betting that by turning empty offices into homes, one crisis can help solve the other.(像华盛顿特区这样的城市如今寄希望于把空置办公楼改造成住宅，用一个难题化解另一个难题。)”可知，这类城市打算重新利用闲置办公楼。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Plans include luxuries such as a pool and a dog park, with projected rent around $4,000 per month. Yet 60 units will be set aside as affordable housing.(规划中包含泳池、狗狗乐园等配套设施，预计月租金约四千美元。然而有六十套房源被划为保障性住房。)”可知，该项目兼顾盈利与社会需求。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的““The scale of the shortage far outpaces what conversions can provide.” says Tracy Loh, a fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies adaptive reuse of old buildings. But she argues that these projects still matter, “It does kill two birds with one stone, in terms of providing some housing supply.”(“短缺的规模远远超出改建所能供给的数量。”布鲁金斯学会研究老旧建筑适应性再利用的研究员特蕾西・洛说道。但她认为这些项目仍旧重要，“在增加部分住房供应方面，这确实是一石二鸟。”)”可知，特雷西·洛认为该改造项目切合实际、具备现实价值。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“Cities across the U.S. are struggling with two problems: too much empty office space and not enough housing. Nationally, office vacancy rates reached roughly 20% in 2024, after years of employees working from home. At the same time, the national housing shortage is in the millions. Cities like D.C., are now betting that by turning empty offices into homes, one crisis can help solve the other.(美国各地的城市正面临两个难题：过多的空置办公空间和住房不足。多年员工居家办公后，2024年全国办公室空置率达到约百分之二十。与此同时，全国住房短缺数量达数百万。像华盛顿特区这样的城市如今寄希望于把空置办公楼改造成住宅，用一个难题化解另一个难题。)”以及尾段中的“Just as empty factory floors became trendy apartments, today’s empty office spaces are turning into stylish kitchens and bedrooms.(就像空置的工厂厂房变成了时尚公寓一样，如今空置的办公空间正被改造成时尚的厨卫和卧室。)”可知，文章开篇提出美国城市办公用房空置、住房短缺的双重困境，详细介绍了办公楼改造住宅的落地项目、改造优势与时代必然性，全文核心围绕空置办公楼改造为住宅展开，因此“办公楼正在变身住宅”最能概括全文主旨，适合作为文章标题。 (2026·厦门·二模) Power bills are going up in America and people are angry. They know whom to blame — the bosses of technology firms thirsting for more juice to fuel artificial-intelligence data centres. However, the AI boom is not chiefly to blame for the rising costs. Electricity prices have risen faster than inflation (通货膨胀) in recent years (see chart). Data centres are indeed consuming more power than before and, as Goldman Sachs, a bank, holds, will account for nearly half of the overall demand growth in America in the coming years. Yet even business forecasts put data centres’ share of total demand at only a fifth in 2030. Today it is less than a tenth. A study conducted last year showed that data-centre load was not the main cause of the rate rises in the five years to 2024. It fingered grid (电网) upgrades and rising costs of power-generating equipment and raw materials. It is estimated that last year demand for distribution transformers outran supply by 10%. There are also long waiting lists for essential grid-related equipment. Many prices started going up in early 2021, nearly two years before the rapid growth AI. They are likely to keep rising for non-AI reasons. The Edison Electric Institute, which represents private-sector power companies, predicts its members’ total capital spending will reach $1.1trn between 2025 and 2029. More than half the sum for distribution and transmission infrastructure (基础设施) will go on replacing ageing equipment and hardening it against extreme weather made likelier by climate change. These factors have been ignored for years. Now AI provides an excuse to help win approval from regulators to pass the cost on to consumers. AI may even be lowering prices. The tech giants are already investing in their own capacity. Microsoft has signed a long-term deal to restart a nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island to supply its data centres. Meta has backed a handful of nuclear startups. The World Resources Institute, another think-tank, notes that in North Dakota rising demand from oil and gas production, data-centre operators and food-processors led to large price reductions for local electricity users. Definitely, if Americans want lower electricity bills, they should be shouting for more AI, not less. 12. Why does the author mention public anger in paragraph 1? A. To highlight a social conflict. B. To criticize a current issue. C. To introduce a common belief. D. To oppose an energy policy. 13. What have mainly contributed to the rising electricity prices in paragraphs 3 & 4? A. AI Growth and data demand. B. Big Tech and market shares. C. Grid upgrades and facility costs. D. Climate change and capital spending. 14. How does the author develop the last paragraph? A. By making a contrast. B. By providing examples. C. By describing a study. D. By drawing conclusions. 15. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Hidden Costs: The Impact of Rapid AI Development B. Going Nuclear: A Potential Solution to Power Shortage C. Energy Reform: How to Reduce Monthly Electricity Bills D. Beyond AI: Uncovering the Real Drivers of Rising Power Costs 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文，本文主要介绍美国电费上涨的主要推手不是AI，而是电网升级等其他长期被忽略的因素。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Power bills are going up in America and people are angry. They know whom to blame — the bosses of technology firms thirsting for more juice to fuel artificial - intelligence data centres. However, the AI boom is not chiefly to blame for the rising costs. (美国的电费正在上涨，民众对此感到愤怒。他们很清楚该把责任归咎于谁——那些渴望获得更多电力以支持人工智能数据中心的科技公司的老板们。然而，人工智能热潮并非导致成本上升的主要原因)”可知，第一段提到公众愤怒，是因为民众普遍认为AI数据中心推高了电费，作者引出这个大众的普遍看法后，再转折提出自己的相反观点。因此目的是引入大众共识，故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“It fingered grid (电网) upgrades and rising costs of power-generating equipment and raw materials.(该研究指出，电网升级、发电设备及原材料成本的上升是导致电价上涨的真正原因)”和第四段中“More than half the sum for distribution and transmission infrastructure (基础设施) will go on replacing ageing equipment and hardening it against extreme weather made likelier by climate change.(用于配电和输电基础设施的费用中，超过一半将用于更换老化设备以及增强其抵御气候变化导致的极端天气的能力)”可知， 第三段明确提到研究指出电价上涨的主要原因是电网升级、发电设备和原材料成本上升，第四段也补充说明大部分资本投入都用于电网设备更新，因此电价上涨的原因是电网升级和设备成本，故选C。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“AI may even be lowering prices. The tech giants are already investing in their own capacity. Microsoft has signed a long-term deal to restart a nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island to supply its data centres. Meta has backed a handful of nuclear startups. The World Resources Institute, another think-tank, notes that in North Dakota rising demand from oil and gas production, data-centre operators and food-processors led to large price reductions for local electricity users.(人工智能甚至可能在降低价格。这些科技巨头已经在投资自身的产能。微软已签署了一份长期协议，旨在重启三里岛的核反应堆，以向其数据中心提供电力供应。Meta公司也支持了几家核能初创企业。另一家智库世界资源研究所指出，在北达科他州，石油和天然气生产、数据中心运营商以及食品加工商的需求不断增长，导致当地电力用户的电价大幅下降)”可知，最后一段为了证明“AI甚至会拉低电价”的观点，先后举了微软重启核电站、Meta投资核初创公司、北达科他州电价下降三个实例，通过举例展开论述，故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段“Power bills are going up in America and people are angry. They know whom to blame — the bosses of technology firms thirsting for more juice to fuel artificial-intelligence data centres. However, the AI boom is not chiefly to blame for the rising costs. (美国的电费正在上涨，民众对此感到愤怒。他们很清楚该把责任归咎于谁——那些渴望获得更多电力以支持人工智能数据中心的科技公司的老板们。然而，人工智能热潮并非导致成本上升的主要原因)”可知，本文主要介绍美国电费上涨的主要推手不是AI，而是电网升级等其他长期被忽略的因素，D项“除了人工智能：探寻电力成本上涨的真正驱动因素” 为最佳标题，故选D。 (2026·深圳·二模) I put on a headset, and within seconds I am somewhere else. Ice sheets float on dark water. Wind brushes past my ears, sharp and restless. In the distance, mountains glow (发光) under the moonlight. Moments later, I find myself inside a museum, leaning close to a painting I have never seen in real life. ___16___ This is the promise of virtual reality (VR): a world delivered to us without leaving home. There is much to appreciate in this form of travel. ___17___ There is no need to consider weather conditions, health issues or financial pressure. You may enter distant places at any moment and leave just as freely. For those restricted by schedule, health, or income, VR quietly removes barriers that traditional travel often sets in place. ___18___ Travelers wander through unfamiliar streets, sample local dishes, and engage face-to-face with people shaped by different traditions. Such encounters awaken the senses and create lasting memories. More importantly, they change how places feel to us, not just how we understand them. This distinction is clear, because learning about a destination is not the same as being there. Virtual travel offers designed scenes and programmed sensations, but it remains carefully controlled. Real travel, by contrast, is shaped by unpredictability. ___19___ In those unplanned moments, understanding becomes lived rather than recorded. Virtual reality will undoubtedly continue to evolve, enriching how we preview journeys and imagine distant worlds. Still, it cannot replace actual presence. Travel is not simply about seeing farther; it is also about feeling where you stand. ___20___ A. I am not moving, yet I am traveling. B. Yet real travel leaves a deeper mark. C. My feet ache as my journey stretches across the day. D. Virtual journeys are convenient, time-saving, and widely accessible. E. Some knowledge, it seems, only arrives when your feet are on the ground. F. It demands choices, adaptation, and constant awareness of the unexpected. G. But the convenience may gradually weaken our desire to explore the real world. 【答案】16. A 17. D 18. B 19. F 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章通过作者的虚拟现实体验引入，探讨了虚拟旅行与现实旅行的区别，指出虚拟现实无法替代真实旅行所带来的感官体验和情感联结。 【16题详解】 前文“I put on a headset, and within seconds I am somewhere else. (我戴上头戴设备，几秒钟后就置身于别处。)”为接下来的虚拟现实旅游做好准备，继而描述作者在虚拟现实中的沉浸体验。后文“This is the promise of virtual reality (VR): a world delivered to us without leaving home. (这就是虚拟现实（VR）的愿景：一个无需离家便能抵达的世界。)”是对前文的概括总结，A选项“我没有移动，却正在旅行”概括了前文的虚拟旅行体验，又引出后文要讨论的核心内容，承接上文并点明主题。故选A。 【17题详解】 根据前文“There is much to appreciate in this form of travel. (这种旅行方式有很多值得欣赏的地方。)”可知，接下来应说明虚拟旅行的优点。D选项“虚拟旅行方便、省时且易于实现。”具体阐述了虚拟旅行的优势，与上文形成顺承关系。故选D。 【18题详解】 空处为本段第一句，应起总起作用。后文“Travelers wander through unfamiliar streets, sample local dishes, and engage face-to-face with people shaped by different traditions. Such encounters awaken the senses and create lasting memories. More importantly, they change how places feel to us, not just how we understand them. (旅行者漫步在陌生的街道上，品尝当地美食，与来自不同传统背景的人面对面交流。这些体验唤醒感官，创造持久的记忆。更重要的是，它们改变了我们对一个地方的情感认知，而不仅仅是理性理解。)”描述了真实旅行的独特体验和深刻影响，B选项“然而真实的旅行留下更深的印记。”引出对真实旅行的进一步阐述。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Real travel, by contrast, is shaped by unpredictability. (相比之下，真实旅行充满不可预测性。)”可知，本空应进一步说明这种不可预测性带来的影响。F选项“它要求人们做出选择、不断适应，并时刻留意突发情况。”具体解释了真实旅行中不可预测性所带来的挑战与体验，与前文形成解释关系。故选F。 【20题详解】 前文“Travel is not simply about seeing farther; it is also about feeling where you stand. (旅行不仅仅是看得更远，更是感受你所在的地方。)”强调真实旅行中的情感体验与身体在场的重要性，E选项“有些知识似乎只有当你脚踏实地时才能获得。”是前文内容的升华，点明真实旅行不可替代的价值。故选E。 二、完形填空 (2026·深圳·一模) I still remember the day I bought my “nice” notebook.

Pi is a never-ending number or ratio (比率). The first three digits of pi are 3. 14, which is why the holiday is celebrated on March 14. In 2009, the US House of Representatives established it as National Pi Day. Here’s how to celebrate that day and more. Play pi games You can challenge yourself to see how many digits of pi you can memorize. The first 16 digits, which NASA engineers use to make accurate calculations, are 3. 141592653589793. You could also play a beanbag game. Draw a large circle on the ground in chalk and label it with the first few numbers of pi: 3, 1, and 4. Toss (投掷) beanbags and try to land them on the digits of pi in order, starting with 3. Have a feast Get into the spirit of Pi Day with a special meal that features round objects. For example, you might have bagels, doughnuts, pancakes, pizza, tortillas, or burgers. Another way to celebrate Pi Day is to bake a pie to share with family and friends. Pi in everyday life Humans have used pi to build, explore, and advance technology. Architecture Engineers use pi to ensure safety and stability when designing curved bridges and tunnels and in design elements like arches and round columns. Space exploration Scientists use pi to map the surface area of planets, keep the wheels of rovers (探测器) on Mars turning, and measure craters on moons. Navigation Global positioning systems (GPS), like you might find in apps that give directions, use pi to calculate specific locations on Earth. 1. Why is March 14 celebrated as Pi Day? A. To mark the passage of a 2009 bill. B. To reflect the never-ending ratio of 3/14. C. To correspond to the starting numbers of pi. D. To honor the birth of a great mathematician. 2. Which activity mainly challenges your memory? A. Calculating the area of a chalk circle. B. Reciting a long string of pi’s numbers. C. Tracking the landing order of beanbags. D.

(2026·深圳·二模) This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing. Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road. On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief. Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded. Until suddenly, time stood still. We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind. Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome! On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind. Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill.” Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation. 4. How did the author cross the bridge? A. By taking mindful steps. B. By rushing across it bravely. C. By using her sense of direction. D. By having the guide drag her over. 5. Why did the bears leave? A. They were attracted by the natural setting. B. They were afraid of the noise of the rapids. C. They were surprised at the group’s actions. D. They were threatened by the guide’s rocks. 6. Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf? A. To pick up some souvenirs. B. To reflect on the journey. C. To symbolize their teamwork. D. To check their observation skills. 7. What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph mean? A. Past the peak of youth. B. Too high to go down. C. Out of place in society. D. Beyond physical limits. (2026·温州·二模) The room looks like your typical office: white walls, low ceilings, gray carpet worn thin from years of foot traffic. But for this vacant (空着的) office outside Dupont Circle in Washington, D.C., real estate developers see potential. Cities across the U.S. are struggling with two problems: too much empty office space and not enough housing. Nationally, office vacancy rates reached roughly 20% in 2024, after years of employees working from home. At the same time, the national housing shortage is in the millions. Cities like D.C., are now betting that by turning empty offices into homes, one crisis can help solve the other. A project in D.C., which broke ground last month, is the largest such conversion (转化) in the city to date. The overall structure of the buildings will remain the same, but with major additions: a lighter-colored exterior will replace the gray concrete from the 1960s, and old inefficient windows will be replaced by larger ones that let in more light per unit. Plans include luxuries such as a pool and a dog park, with projected rent around $4,000 per month. Yet 60 units will be set aside as affordable housing. “We would love to do more,” says Matt Pestronk, the president of a development company, “but unfortunately, almost all capital seeks a return. This was as much as we could afford to do.” “The scale of the shortage far outpaces what conversions can provide.” says Tracy Loh, a fellow at the Brookings Institution who studies adaptive reuse of old buildings. But she argues that these projects still matter, “It does kill two birds with one stone, in terms of providing some housing supply.” And it tends to create housing in central, transit-accessible areas that are in high demand. The decline of manufacturing (制造业) in the late 20th century offers a glimpse of what comes next. When shifts happen in the economy and society, the built environment must change to match contemporary demand.

Manufacturing Is Gaining a Second Life (2026·厦门·二模) Power bills are going up in America and people are angry. They know whom to blame — the bosses of technology firms thirsting for more juice to fuel artificial-intelligence data centres. However, the AI boom is not chiefly to blame for the rising costs. Electricity prices have risen faster than inflation (通货膨胀) in recent years (see chart). Data centres are indeed consuming more power than before and, as Goldman Sachs, a bank, holds, will account for nearly half of the overall demand growth in America in the coming years. Yet even business forecasts put data centres’ share of total demand at only a fifth in 2030. Today it is less than a tenth. A study conducted last year showed that data-centre load was not the main cause of the rate rises in the five years to 2024. It fingered grid (电网) upgrades and rising costs of power-generating equipment and raw materials. It is estimated that last year demand for distribution transformers outran supply by 10%. There are also long waiting lists for essential grid-related equipment. Many prices started going up in early 2021, nearly two years before the rapid growth AI. They are likely to keep rising for non-AI reasons. The Edison Electric Institute, which represents private-sector power companies, predicts its members’ total capital spending will reach $1.1trn between 2025 and 2029. More than half the sum for distribution and transmission infrastructure (基础设施) will go on replacing ageing equipment and hardening it against extreme weather made likelier by climate change. These factors have been ignored for years. Now AI provides an excuse to help win approval from regulators to pass the cost on to consumers. AI may even be lowering prices. The tech giants are already investing in their own capacity. Microsoft has signed a long-term deal to restart a nuclear reactor at Three Mile Island to supply its data centres. Meta has backed a handful of nuclear startups. The World Resources Institute, another think-tank, notes that in North Dakota rising demand from oil and gas production, data-centre operators and food-processors led to large price reductions for local electricity users. Definitely, if Americans want lower electricity bills, they should be shouting for more AI, not less. 12. Why does the author mention public anger in paragraph 1? A. To highlight a social conflict.

Hidden Costs: The Impact of Rapid AI Development B. Going Nuclear: A Potential Solution to Power Shortage C. Energy Reform: How to Reduce Monthly Electricity Bills D. Beyond AI: Uncovering the Real Drivers of Rising Power Costs (2026·深圳·二模) I put on a headset, and within seconds I am somewhere else. Ice sheets float on dark water. Wind brushes past my ears, sharp and restless. In the distance, mountains glow (发光) under the moonlight. Moments later, I find myself inside a museum, leaning close to a painting I have never seen in real life. ___16___ This is the promise of virtual reality (VR): a world delivered to us without leaving home. There is much to appreciate in this form of travel. ___17___ There is no need to consider weather conditions, health issues or financial pressure. You may enter distant places at any moment and leave just as freely. For those restricted by schedule, health, or income, VR quietly removes barriers that traditional travel often sets in place. ___18___ Travelers wander through unfamiliar streets, sample local dishes, and engage face-to-face with people shaped by different traditions. Such encounters awaken the senses and create lasting memories. More importantly, they change how places feel to us, not just how we understand them. This distinction is clear, because learning about a destination is not the same as being there. Virtual travel offers designed scenes and programmed sensations, but it remains carefully controlled. Real travel, by contrast, is shaped by unpredictability. ___19___ In those unplanned moments, understanding becomes lived rather than recorded. Virtual reality will undoubtedly continue to evolve, enriching how we preview journeys and imagine distant worlds. Still, it cannot replace actual presence. Travel is not simply about seeing farther; it is also about feeling where you stand. ___20___ A. I am not moving, yet I am traveling. B. Yet real travel leaves a deeper mark. C. My feet ache as my journey stretches across the day. D. Virtual journeys are convenient, time-saving, and widely accessible. E. Some knowledge, it seems, only arrives when your feet are on the ground. F. It demands choices, adaptation, and constant awareness of the unexpected. G. But the convenience may gradually weaken our desire to explore the real world. 二、完形填空 (2026·深圳·一模) I still remember the day I bought my “nice” notebook.

That beautiful notebook sat ____22____ for months. When I finally opened it, I hesitated. The pages felt too delicate and too ____23____ to waste on my messy handwriting and ideas. So I ____24____ it. Instead, I grabbed an old, ugly composition notebook with a ____25____ cover and dog-eared corners. I started to ____26____ it with everything: morning pages, random thoughts and reminders. This is surprisingly ____27____. I actually wrote. Every day. Without exception. The psychology is real. When we ____28____ something too much, we place limits around it, feeling it is “too good”. But the ugly notebook carries no such ____29____. It has been used. It tells me, “This is a ____30____ for thinking and living, not a museum piece.” Here’s the thing: ____31____ notebooks are idea incubators (孵化器). With the pressure off, you experiment more. You try things that might ____32____. And in that freedom, bad ideas I was ____33____ embarrassed about gradually evolved into work I’m proud of. And that’s where the real work of creation happens. The best notebook is never the most beautiful one. It’s the one you’ll actually ____34____. Because the magic happens in the ____35____, not in perfect pages. Your ugly notebook is waiting. 21.
