Decades later, at her son’s new high school, she joined a book club for immigrant parents. Maria’s early hesitation turned into enthusiasm shortly after she attended the book club meetings, where she and 15 other Latina mothers passionately discussed novels. Principal Torres Flores started the club. She noticed that parents’ involvement directly influenced students’ attitudes toward reading. Initially, like Maria, only a few parents joined the club, doubting their ability to read at a high level. Over time, the group grew to a core of 15 regular members, mostly mothers, who proudly call themselves lifelong learners. The book club meetings are an extension of the parents’ involvement in their children’s education. The book club often discusses stories that provide a valuable reference for family life. For example, The Diary of a Young Girl inspired perseverance, while Rain of Gold sparked deep discussions about family and tradition. Beyond reading, the club empowers them to take on leadership roles at school and share their love of books at home. The schedule for the book club is tight, but the mothers still find time to attend. They even organize activities for other parents and contribute to the school’s energetic community. The positive impact extends to their families. Parents who once spent weekends watching TV now enjoy reading with their children. Research shows that having books at home has a positive effect on children’s studies. For many, the club has inspired them to create personal libraries, fostering a culture of learning. Torres Flores believes these efforts benefit both parents and students. Parents feel more confident and connected to the school, while students see the value of education. At the end of a meeting, the group selects a new book to read together, often choosing stories that offer lessons they can apply to their families. For these parents, the book club is more than a reading group; it influences their children and supports their future. 4. Why did Maria hesitate to join the book club initially? A. Her parents discouraged her. B. She was an immigrant parent. C. Only a few parents joined it. D. It was beyond her reading ability. 5. What’s the main purpose of Torres starting the book club? A. To strengthen parents’ modelling influence. B. To develop parents’ communication skills. C. To have parents teach children how to read. D. To discuss children’s problems with parents. 6. How do students benefit from the book club? A. They will enjoy powerful family libraries. B. They can achieve greater academic success. C. They will be invited to manage a school. D. They can learn how to organize activities. 7. What is the main theme of the passage? A. Many hands make light work. B. Parental influence plays a vital role. C. Hard work eventually bears fruit. D. Reading is what makes a difference. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲的是校长Torres Flores创办移民家长读书俱乐部。原本缺乏阅读能力的家长参与其中，收获成长；家长在家养成阅读习惯，进而影响孩子，让孩子受益，实现家校共赢。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Initially, like Maria, only a few parents joined the club, doubting their ability to read at a high level.(起初，和Maria一样，只有少数家长加入俱乐部，他们怀疑自己能否进行高水平阅读。)”可知，玛丽亚最初对加入读书俱乐部感到犹豫的原因是她认为读书俱乐部超出了自己的阅读能力。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Principal Torres Flores started the club. She noticed that parents’ involvement directly influenced students’ attitudes toward reading.(读书俱乐部由校长托雷斯·弗洛雷斯创办。她注意到，家长的参与直接影响学生对阅读的态度。)”可知，托雷斯创办读书俱乐部的主要目的是加强家长的榜样作用。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Research shows that having books at home has a positive effect on children’s studies.(研究表明，在家中拥有书籍对孩子的学业有积极影响。)”可知，学生从读书俱乐部中能获得的好处是能够取得更大的学业成就。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段“For these parents, the book club is more than a reading group; it influences their children and supports their future.(对这些家长而言，读书俱乐部远不止是一个阅读团体，它影响着他们的孩子，也支持着他们的未来。)”可知，本文主要讲的是校长Torres Flores创办移民家长读书俱乐部。原本缺乏阅读能力的家长参与其中，收获成长；家长在家养成阅读习惯，进而影响孩子，让孩子受益，实现家校共赢，因此本文的主题是B选项“Parental influence plays a vital role.(家长的影响至关重要。)”。 C We all love our parents and turn to them when we’re in need, but would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends in the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become virtual extensions of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends? In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with the latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day-to-day lives as they always had because they had no need to be tech-savvy (精通技术的). However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites. These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member. It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand, if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before. A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to exert (运用) their independence.” Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow when you do choose not to add them to your friends list. 8. Why do many parents want to learn about social networking sites? A. Because they are eager to explore technologies. B. Because they start to realize their importance. C. Because they feel bored with their daily life. D. Because they want to watch their children. 9. What might be the reason for teens to reject their parents’ friend request? A. They are controlled by their parents. B. Their choice of friends is removed. C. They don’t want to teach their parents. D. Their privacy cannot be guaranteed. 10. Why is the survey mentioned in the passage? A. To comfort parents. B. To warn parents. C. To criticize parents. D. To challenge parents. 11. What is most likely to be talked about next? A. How to bridge the generation gap. B. How to make friends on social networks. C. How to explain to parents about the rejection. D. How to use the social networking sites wisely. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了青少年在社交网站上是否应添加父母为好友的困境，分析了父母想了解社交网站的原因以及青少年拒绝父母好友请求背后的隐私顾虑，并建议通过沟通来解释拒绝添加的行为。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites.(然而，越来越多的父母开始意识到社交网络在他们的生活中有多么重要。这种认识给了许多父母动力去了解社交网站)”可知，许多父母想了解社交网站是因为他们开始意识到其重要性。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member. (有时当我们必须接受父母或家人的“好友”请求时，我们会觉得隐私受到了侵犯)”以及第四段“On the other hand, if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before.(另一方面，如果你真的接受了，你可能会有被监视的感觉，不再能像以前那样自由地评论或交流)”可知，青少年拒绝父母好友请求的原因可能是他们的隐私无法得到保证。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to exert(运用) their independence.”(最近的一项调查表明，如果孩子忽略了父母的好友请求，父母不应该觉得是针对自己：“当青少年忽略父母的好友请求时，并不一定意味着他们在隐瞒什么，但这可能意味着这是他们生活中想要行使独立性的一个部分。”)”可知，文章提及该调查是为了安慰那些被孩子忽略好友请求的父母，让他们不要过于在意或感到受伤。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow when you do choose not to add them to your friends list. (你最终选择不把父母添加为好友，或许和他们沟通、做出解释，有助于减轻这件事带给他们的打击)”可推知，接下来文章最可能讨论如何向父母解释拒绝添加好友的原因。 D Feeling thirsty? Drawing clean water directly from the air is possible, as even extremely dry regions contain some moisture (水汽). Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days. To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method. Instead of heating the water-absorbing materials to release water, they use high-frequency ultrasonic (超声波的) vibrations to shake the moisture loose. These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops. The new approach elegantly bypasses the materials’ unyielding nature. “Any material that is very good at absorbing water doesn’t want to part with it,” explains Boriskina. “So you normally need to put a lot of energy into pulling water out.” With ultrasound, this process is completely transformed. Lab tests show this method is about 45 times more efficient than traditional heating, freeing the trapped water in mere minutes. This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day. Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night. The project’s ultimate purpose goes far beyond laboratory efficiency. Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air. 12. What does “this bottleneck” mentioned in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The lack of water in dry regions. B. The huge cost of current devices. C. The slow process of releasing water. D. The poor performance of the materials. 13. How do the ultrasound waves release water from the materials? A. By heating the watery materials. B. By overcoming the trapping force. C. By breaking water into small drops. D. By changing the materials’ property. 14. What activates the new device automatically? A. An electronic sensor. B. A water cycling setup. C. Insufficient water absorption. D. Continuous sunlight exposure. 15. What does Boriskina highlight regarding the project in the last paragraph? A. Its further research. B. Its practical potential. C. Its current limitations. D. Its technical improvements. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了麻省理工学院工程师研发出一种全新的大气集水技术。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上第一段“Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days.(在过去几年里，研究人员研发出了海绵状材料。这类材料通过吸收水汽，让“大气集水”（AWH）成为可能。然而，提取这些捕获的水分通常需要加热，并且要等待很长时间。目前大多数系统依靠阳光来加热这些材料。这个缓慢的步骤可能需要数小时，甚至会延长至数日。)”可知，上文提到传统技术收集水汽之后，释放水的过程很慢，耗时很久。this bottleneck 指代前文这个缓慢的释水过程。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops.(这些声波经过精准调谐，可以破坏将水分子固定住的弱化学键。这种定向扰动会产生足够的力量释放水分，将水以小液滴的形式抖落出来。)”可知，超声波打破束缚水分子的弱键，也就是克服锁住水分子的束缚力，从而释放水分。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night.(这套系统由一块小型太阳能电池供电。该电池既能供电，又可充当传感器，检测材料何时吸满水分。一旦收集到足够的水，系统就会自动启动，让整套装置能够昼夜循环运行。)”可知，新装置的小型太阳能电池同时充当电子传感器让新设备自动启动。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air.(博里斯基娜指出，这项技术能够为缺乏淡水的偏远社区提供可靠的饮用水源。随着全球水危机不断加剧，这项创新带来了一丝希望，它或许能从稀薄的空气中获取救命的水源。)”可知，在最后一段，Boriskina 着重强调项目的实际应用潜能。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Is Fresh Air Really Good for You? We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” ___16___ According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good. ___17___ If the air you’re breathing is clean—which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities—then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉) and your brain. Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). ___18___ In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. ___19___ It gives us a great feeling of peace. ___20___While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D . To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin—put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D . A. Fresh air cleans our lungs. B. So what are you waiting for? C. Being in nature refreshes us. D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight. E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said? F. Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care. G. All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens. 【答案】16. E 17. A 18. G 19. C 20. D 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新鲜空气对人体的各种好处。 【16题详解】 根据下一句中的“the answer is a big YES”可知，该空应该是一个一般疑问句，选项中只有E选项是一般疑问句。E项“但是新鲜空气真得像你母亲说的那样对你有好处吗？”承上启下，故选E。空前的people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air”和选项中的“your mother always said”亦是呼应。 【17题详解】 根据下一句中提到的“If the air you’re breathing is clean…the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen”可知，新鲜空气充满赋予人生命的，充满活力的氧气。再根据下文中“…breathe more deeply, allowing more oxygen to get to your muscles and your brain”是对前文的递进，在户外，更多的氧气进入你的肌肉和大脑。根据前面的分析可以推知，该空应该提到新鲜空气的基本作用，根据常识，我们知道吸入的空气首先进入的是肺部，然后才会使我们的肌肉和大脑受益，故该空应选A项“新鲜空气清洁我们的肺部”。 【18题详解】 根据下一句中提到的“these places”可以推知，该空应该提到表示地点的复数名词。选项中只有G选项提到该类名词，故G项“在全国，康复中心已经开始建造‘康复花园’。”these places就是指Healing Gardens。 【19题详解】 前文介绍的是“康复花园”中的绿色植物对于病人康复的好的作用：绿色的正在成长的植物可以减轻压力，降低血压，使人情绪良好；空后提到“它给我们一种平和感”。该空起承上启下的作用，仍然要提到处于“康复花园”这种自然环境中的好处，空后的it也要指代这种情况。故选C项“身处大自然可以使人精神焕发。” 【20题详解】 根据下文中提到的“the sun’s rays…give us beneficial Vitamin D”可知，该段介绍阳光的好处。故该选项应该提到阳光。选项中只有D选项涉及阳光。故选D项“获得新鲜空气的另一个好处是阳光。” 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I grew up in a poor Brazilian family, located on a distant island in the Amazon.

When the annual school Science and Technology Competition was announced, they decided to work together to build a “Smart Solar Watering System” for the school garden. Leo, who was very careful but sometimes stubborn, wanted to take charge of the electric circuit and programming, while Ethan, full of creative ideas, was responsible for making the model and outside structure. With the final competition only one day away, both boys were working hard in the school laboratory. During their final test late in the evening, something suddenly went wrong. With a loud noise and a strange burning smell, the main chip on the board stopped working. Looking at the broken machine, Leo felt all their weeks of hard work were wasted. Tired and anxious, he lost his temper completely. “I told you not to change the wire!” Leo shouted angrily. “You always make quick decisions and ruin our work!” Ethan stood there, his face turning red with anger and hurt. “I was only trying to add a small cooling fan to protect the chip from getting too hot! Why do you always blame me? You never trust my ideas!” With tears in his eyes, Ethan grabbed his schoolbag, closed the laboratory door heavily, and ran out into the pouring rain. The laboratory became completely quiet, with only the sound of heavy rain hitting the window. Leo sat down slowly in his chair, feeling tired and empty. When he began to clean the broken parts on the desk, a small yellow note fell out from Ethan’s notebook. On the note, Ethan had drawn a clear plan for a cooling system, with many careful notes written late the night before. At the bottom of the page, there was a simple drawing of two smiling boys holding a gold cup, along with a warm sentence: “Leo’s birthday tomorrow — let’s finish the project early to celebrate!” Looking at the note under the desk lamp, Leo listened to the thunder outside. The competition would start at nine o’clock the next morning, and there was very little time left. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Looking at the detailed drawing on the note, Leo felt deep regret in his heart. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next morning, the school hall was full of excited students and teachers when Leo’s turn came. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: Looking at the detailed drawing on the note, Leo felt deep regret in his heart. He realized that he had been too stubborn and blamed Ethan without thinking. He knew he must find Ethan and fix their project together. He rushed out into the rain to look for his friend. When he found Ethan, he said sorry sincerely. Ethan agreed to go back to the lab. They worked together to rebuild the chip with the cooling plan that Ethan designed. Soon their Smart Solar Watering System worked again. Paragraph 2: The next morning, the school hall was full of excited students and teachers when Leo’s turn came. Leo and Ethan showed their project to the judges. They explained how their system saved water and protected plants. The judges praised their creative design. They won the second prize. Leo told Ethan that true friendship needs trust and communication, which is the most valuable lesson they learned from this competition. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。里奥和伊森是好友，二人组队参加学校科创大赛，共同制作智能太阳能浇灌系统。赛前一晚设备突发故障，里奥迁怒伊森，伊森冒雨离去。里奥偶然看到伊森的笔记，知晓好友的用心。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句可知，第一段可以描写里奥看到纸条后的内心懊悔，意识到自己错怪伊森，冒雨找到伊森并真诚道歉，两人一起返回实验室，依照伊森的方案连夜修好智能浇灌系统。 ②由第二段首句可知，第二段可以描写第二天赛场之上两人一起展示作品，向评委介绍系统功能，获得评委肯定并获奖，最后感悟友谊需要信任与沟通，升华主题。 2.续写线索：看到纸条心生愧疚 —— 冒雨寻找好友道歉 —— 二人合作修复装置 —— 赛场共同展示作品 —— 作品获奖得到认可 —— 感悟友谊的真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/become aware of ②寻找：look for/search for 情绪类 ①真诚地：sincerely/from the bottom of one’s heart ②赞扬：praise/speak highly of 【点睛】【高分句型1】He realized that he had been too stubborn and blamed Ethan without thinking.

B Maria Onate had not read a book until her son started high school. Her parents ended her education when she was 15 to prepare her for marriage and work. Decades later, at her son’s new high school, she joined a book club for immigrant parents. Maria’s early hesitation turned into enthusiasm shortly after she attended the book club meetings, where she and 15 other Latina mothers passionately discussed novels. Principal Torres Flores started the club. She noticed that parents’ involvement directly influenced students’ attitudes toward reading. Initially, like Maria, only a few parents joined the club, doubting their ability to read at a high level. Over time, the group grew to a core of 15 regular members, mostly mothers, who proudly call themselves lifelong learners. The book club meetings are an extension of the parents’ involvement in their children’s education. The book club often discusses stories that provide a valuable reference for family life. For example, The Diary of a Young Girl inspired perseverance, while Rain of Gold sparked deep discussions about family and tradition. Beyond reading, the club empowers them to take on leadership roles at school and share their love of books at home. The schedule for the book club is tight, but the mothers still find time to attend. They even organize activities for other parents and contribute to the school’s energetic community. The positive impact extends to their families. Parents who once spent weekends watching TV now enjoy reading with their children. Research shows that having books at home has a positive effect on children’s studies. For many, the club has inspired them to create personal libraries, fostering a culture of learning. Torres Flores believes these efforts benefit both parents and students. Parents feel more confident and connected to the school, while students see the value of education. At the end of a meeting, the group selects a new book to read together, often choosing stories that offer lessons they can apply to their families. For these parents, the book club is more than a reading group; it influences their children and supports their future. 4. Why did Maria hesitate to join the book club initially? A. Her parents discouraged her. B. She was an immigrant parent. C. Only a few parents joined it. D. It was beyond her reading ability. 5. What’s the main purpose of Torres starting the book club? A. To strengthen parents’ modelling influence. B. To develop parents’ communication skills. C. To have parents teach children how to read. D. To discuss children’s problems with parents. 6. How do students benefit from the book club? A. They will enjoy powerful family libraries. B. They can achieve greater academic success. C. They will be invited to manage a school. D. They can learn how to organize activities. 7. What is the main theme of the passage? A. Many hands make light work. B. Parental influence plays a vital role. C. Hard work eventually bears fruit. D. Reading is what makes a difference. C We all love our parents and turn to them when we’re in need, but would you like them to hear the conversations you have with your friends in the school playground or lunch queue? Social networking sites have become virtual extensions of the school hallways, so would you add your parents as “friends” and allow them to view your online activities and conversations with friends? In the past the generation gap included a technology gap, where children were up to date with the latest technology and parents were left behind, content to continue their day-to-day lives as they always had because they had no need to be tech-savvy (精通技术的). However, more and more parents are beginning to realize just how important social networks are in their lives. This realization has given many parents the motivation to educate themselves about social networking sites. These days many people are attracted to social networking sites because they can choose who they have around them; there’s also a certain amount of control over privacy that we don’t get in real life. Sometimes we feel that privacy is violated when we must accept a “friend” request from a parent or family member. It’s a difficult choice whether or not to allow a parent to become a part of our online lives. On the one hand we don’t want to “reject” their request because that might hurt their feelings or make them feel you have something to hide. On the other hand, if you do accept, then you could have a sense of being watched and no longer feel free to comment or communicate the way you did before. A recent survey suggested that parents shouldn’t take it personally if their child ignores their request: “When a teen ignores a parent’s friend request, it doesn’t necessarily mean that they are hiding something, but it could mean that this is one part of their life where they want to exert (运用) their independence.” Perhaps talking with parents and giving explanations would help soften the blow when you do choose not to add them to your friends list. 8.

Drawing clean water directly from the air is possible, as even extremely dry regions contain some moisture (水汽). Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days. To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method. Instead of heating the water-absorbing materials to release water, they use high-frequency ultrasonic (超声波的) vibrations to shake the moisture loose. These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops. The new approach elegantly bypasses the materials’ unyielding nature. “Any material that is very good at absorbing water doesn’t want to part with it,” explains Boriskina. “So you normally need to put a lot of energy into pulling water out.” With ultrasound, this process is completely transformed. Lab tests show this method is about 45 times more efficient than traditional heating, freeing the trapped water in mere minutes. This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day. Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night. The project’s ultimate purpose goes far beyond laboratory efficiency. Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air. 12. What does “this bottleneck” mentioned in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. The lack of water in dry regions. B. The huge cost of current devices. C. The slow process of releasing water. D. The poor performance of the materials. 13. How do the ultrasound waves release water from the materials? A. By heating the watery materials. B. By overcoming the trapping force. C. By breaking water into small drops. D. By changing the materials’ property. 14. What activates the new device automatically? A. An electronic sensor. B. A water cycling setup. C. Insufficient water absorption. D. Continuous sunlight exposure. 15. What does Boriskina highlight regarding the project in the last paragraph? A. Its further research. B. Its practical potential. C. Its current limitations. D. Its technical improvements. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Is Fresh Air Really Good for You? We all grew up hearing people tell us to “go out and get some fresh air.” ___16___ According to recent studies, the answer is a big YES, if the air quality in your camping area is good. ___17___ If the air you’re breathing is clean—which it would be if you’re away from the smog of cities—then the air is filled with life-giving, energizing oxygen. If you exercise out of doors, your body will learn to breathe more deeply, allowing even more oxygen to get to your muscles(肌肉) and your brain. Recently, people have begun studying the connection between the natural world and healing(治愈). ___18___ In these places patients can go to be near nature during their recovery. It turns out that just looking at green, growing things can reduce stress, lower blood pressure, and put people into a better mood(情绪).Greenery is good for us. Hospital patients who see tree branches out their window are likely to recover at a faster rate than patients who see buildings or sky instead. ___19___ It gives us a great feeling of peace. ___20___While the sun’s rays can age and harm our skin, they also give us beneficial Vitamin D . To make sure you get enough Vitamin D—but still protect your skin—put on sunscreen right as you head outside. It takes sunscreen about fifteen minutes to start working, and that’s plenty of time for your skin to absorb a day’s worth of Vitamin D . A. Fresh air cleans our lungs. B. So what are you waiting for? C. Being in nature refreshes us. D. Another side benefit of getting fresh air is sunlight. E. But is fresh air really as good for you as your mother always said? F. Just as importantly, we tend to associate air with health care. G. All across the country, recovery centers have begun building Healing Gardens. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I grew up in a poor Brazilian family, located on a distant island in the Amazon.

When the annual school Science and Technology Competition was announced, they decided to work together to build a “Smart Solar Watering System” for the school garden. Leo, who was very careful but sometimes stubborn, wanted to take charge of the electric circuit and programming, while Ethan, full of creative ideas, was responsible for making the model and outside structure. With the final competition only one day away, both boys were working hard in the school laboratory. During their final test late in the evening, something suddenly went wrong. With a loud noise and a strange burning smell, the main chip on the board stopped working. Looking at the broken machine, Leo felt all their weeks of hard work were wasted. Tired and anxious, he lost his temper completely. “I told you not to change the wire!” Leo shouted angrily. “You always make quick decisions and ruin our work!” Ethan stood there, his face turning red with anger and hurt. “I was only trying to add a small cooling fan to protect the chip from getting too hot! Why do you always blame me? You never trust my ideas!” With tears in his eyes, Ethan grabbed his schoolbag, closed the laboratory door heavily, and ran out into the pouring rain. The laboratory became completely quiet, with only the sound of heavy rain hitting the window. Leo sat down slowly in his chair, feeling tired and empty. When he began to clean the broken parts on the desk, a small yellow note fell out from Ethan’s notebook. On the note, Ethan had drawn a clear plan for a cooling system, with many careful notes written late the night before. At the bottom of the page, there was a simple drawing of two smiling boys holding a gold cup, along with a warm sentence: “Leo’s birthday tomorrow — let’s finish the project early to celebrate!” Looking at the note under the desk lamp, Leo listened to the thunder outside. The competition would start at nine o’clock the next morning, and there was very little time left. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Looking at the detailed drawing on the note, Leo felt deep regret in his heart. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The next morning, the school hall was full of excited students and teachers when Leo’s turn came. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
