Would you like to do real science out in nature? Community science invites members of the public to address real scientific questions, and participants often work side by side with professional scientists. In our parks, volunteers help conduct species and ecosystem inventories and monitoring, filling gaps in our understanding of the local environment. No prior experience is required, and we provide free training and tools for all participants. Our programs • Raptor Watch: Join us in counting hawks and eagles as they pass over the park each autumn, helping to protect California’s birds of prey. • Wildlife Camera Project: Motion-activated cameras placed across the mountains record mammal activity year-round. Volunteers check the images and identify the animals. • Wild Bee Survey: Every summer, volunteers walk fixed routes through grasslands to record the wild bees visiting flowers. • BioBlitz Day: A one-day event each spring. Working with scientists, teams find and photograph as many species as possible in one area using a free phone app. How to get involved? Volunteers aged 12 and up are welcome, and family groups are also encouraged to join. Most programs run on weekends and require two to four hours per visit. Some programs, such as the Wildlife Camera Project, ask volunteers to complete a half-day training first, which is provided free at our visitor center. Places are limited, so early registration is advised. Visit our website calendar to find upcoming events, or email communityscience@parks.org for more information. Join us — you will learn new skills, make new friends, and help protect the natural world around you. 1. Which can Jack choose if he is only free for a single day in spring? A. Raptor Watch. B. Wildlife Camera Project. C. Wild Bee Survey. D. BioBlitz Day. 2. What are volunteers required to do in the Wildlife Camera Project? A. Set up motion-activated cameras in the mountains. B. Attend a half-day free training first. C. Visit the park on weekdays for two hours. D. Identify the animals together with scientists. 3. What is the main purpose of this text? A. To encourage people to do science outdoors. B. To explain how cameras monitor wild animals. C. To advertise free weekend activities for teenagers. D. To introduce several science programs in the parks. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍面向公众的社区科学项目，包括其主要项目、参与方式及参与意义。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Our programs部分中的“BioBlitz Day: A one-day event each spring.(BioBlitz 日：每年春季一项为期一天的活动)”可知，Jack如果春季只有一天空闲，可以选择BioBlitz Day。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据How to get involved? 部分中的“Some programs, such as the Wildlife Camera Project, ask volunteers to complete a half-day training first, which is provided free at our visitor center.(一些项目，例如野生动物相机项目，要求志愿者首先完成半天的培训，该培训在我们的游客中心免费提供)”可知，野生动物相机项目的志愿者需要先参加半天的免费培训。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章首句“Would you like to do real science out in nature?(你想在自然环境中做真正的科学吗？)”以及最后一段中的“Join us — you will learn new skills, make new friends, and help protect the natural world around you.(加入我们 —— 你将学到新技能，结交新朋友，并帮助保护你周围的自然世界)”可知，本文的主要目的是鼓励人们到户外参与科学活动。 B For years, Shay Taylor-Allen walked the halls of Yale New Haven Hospital with a mop and cleaning cart, making sure patient rooms were spotless. Soon, she’ll be walking those same halls with a stethoscope (听诊器) — this time as a doctor. Her journey didn’t follow a traditional path. After graduating in the top 10 percent of her class at Wilbur Cross High School in Connecticut, Taylor had the potential to go far — but not the guidance. At just 18, needing to earn a living, she took a job as a janitor at Yale New Haven Hospital. What started as a practical decision turned into nearly a decade of hard, honest work, cleaning patient rooms and offices. Then life took a turn that would change everything. After a devastating house fire, Taylor’s mother suffered severe lung damage and began struggling to breathe. After seeking medical treatment from multiple doctors, her mother finally received a diagnosis: dysfunction (功能紊乱), a rare condition that had been overlooked. That moment lit a spark. She wanted to become a doctor and advocate for patients who weren’t being heard. The road ahead wasn’t easy. With no clear roadmap, Taylor had to figure out each step on her own — often starting with a simple online search. She enrolled in classes at Southern Connecticut State University, later earning a master’s degree from Quinnipiac University to complete the science courses needed for medical school. And through it all, she kept working. By day, she studied. By night, she returned to the hospital, continuing her janitor job while saving money for application fees and the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test). Her determination paid off. Taylor was accepted into Howard University College of Medicine — and recently, she received life-changing news. She was matched to a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital. The very same hospital where her journey began. 4. What can be known about Taylor’s performance at high school? A. Average. B. Outstanding. C. Friendly. D. Popular. 5. What can be inferred from the fact that Taylor was matched to a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital? A. She will now work in the same hospital where she once cleaned rooms. B. She has decided to give up medicine and return to her old job. C. She was rejected by Howard University College of Medicine. D. She became a doctor mainly to earn more money than before. 6. What inspired Taylor to pursue a career in medicine? A. The need to support herself. B. The desire to earn more. C. Her mother’s suffering. D. Her family’s request. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards Taylor’s journey? A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Indifferent. D. Admiring. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了清洁工泰勒历经艰辛，最终在曾经工作的医院成为住院医师的励志故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“After graduating in the top 10 percent of her class at Wilbur Cross High School in Connecticut, Taylor had the potential to go far — but not the guidance. (从康涅狄格州威尔伯克罗斯高中毕业时，她在班级排名前10%，泰勒本有远大发展潜力，只是缺少指导)”可知，泰勒高中成绩名列前茅，表现出色。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“She was matched to a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital. The very same hospital where her journey began. (她被安排在耶鲁纽黑文医院进行住院医师培训，这正是她人生旅程开始的那家医院)”和第一段中“For years, Shay Taylor-Allen walked the halls of Yale New Haven Hospital with a mop and cleaning cart, making sure patient rooms were spotless. (多年来，泰勒推着拖把和清洁车穿行在耶鲁纽黑文医院的走廊，把病房打扫得一尘不染)”可推断，她将要在曾经打扫病房的这家医院工作。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“After a devastating house fire, Taylor’s mother suffered severe lung damage and began struggling to breathe. After seeking medical treatment from multiple doctors, her mother finally received a diagnosis: dysfunction (功能紊乱), a rare condition that had been overlooked. That moment lit a spark. She wanted to become a doctor and advocate for patients who weren’t being heard. (一场毁灭性的房屋火灾过后，泰勒的母亲肺部严重受损，开始呼吸困难。在多位医生处就诊后，母亲最终得到确诊：患上了一种被忽视的罕见功能紊乱疾病。那一刻，心中燃起了信念的火花。她立志成为一名医生，为那些诉求无人倾听的患者发声。)”可知，母亲所遭受的病痛促使她从医。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章讲述Taylor从医院保洁员，克服重重困难坚持学习，最终圆梦成为医生的励志经历，尤其结合最后一段“Her determination paid off. Taylor was accepted into Howard University College of Medicine — and recently, she received life-changing news. She was matched to a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital. The very same hospital where her journey began. (她的坚持终获回报。泰勒被霍华德大学医学院录取，近期，她收到改变人生的消息：她将在耶鲁纽黑文医院参加住院医师培训，这里正是她追梦之路开启的地方。)”可知，作者客观叙述她的奋斗历程，字里行间流露出敬佩的态度。 C Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions. Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. The hospital is surrounded by former grain fields that now sit underwater due to sea level rise (the land has been transformed into the shrimp fisheries as a result). But the substantial supply of water surrounding the structure can’t be easily used for drinking water and other purposes because of its high salinity level (含盐量). The hospital’s relationship with rainwater was a key element in the prize. Its major design feature is a canal that zigzags along the length of the hospital, splitting the outpatient building from the building for inpatient services. The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital. The cycle of disastrous flooding in Bangladesh is caused by the combination of cyclones, monsoons and snowmelt from the Himalayas. As climate change makes rainfall more unstable and powerful storms even more intense, millions in Bangladesh are facing destructive effects, including loss of agricultural land due to sea level rise. The designer, architect Kashef Chowdhury hopes the award will inspire people to commit to architecture that cares for humans and nature alike. “I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale, “Chowdhury said. 8. What leads Friendship Hospital to win the architecture prize? A. Its service level. B. Its design philosophy. C. Its long history. D. Its hard construction. 9. How does Friendship Hospital tackle local rainwater? A. It collects rainwater for hospital use. B. It recycles rainwater for farm irrigation. C. It desalts rainwater for patients’ daily drinking. D. It stores rainwater in tanks for shrimp fisheries. 10. What message does Chowdhury mainly convey? A. Be in awe of nature. B. Man can overcome nature. C. Be at one with nature. D. Inspiration springs from nature. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. RIBA International Prize in Bangladesh B. Hospital’s Victory over Climate Change C. Special Canal: An Amazing Architecture World D. Prized Hospital: Fitting into a Watery Environment 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了孟加拉友谊医院凭借适配水乡环境的巧思设计斩获建筑大奖。它修建水渠收集雨水；建筑师希望该作品启发兼顾人类与自然的建筑设计。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions.(这正是友谊医院获得2021年英国皇家建筑师学会国际奖这一重要建筑荣誉的非凡之处之一。该医院是孟加拉国一家拥有80张床位的乡村社区医院，其设计充分展现了在预算有限、环境条件复杂的情况下，通过优秀的设计实现精美建筑的可能)”可知，其设计理念让友谊医院赢得了建筑奖项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital.(水渠收集场地的雨水，然后储存在水箱中，以便医院使用)”可知，友谊医院收集雨水供医院使用。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale, “Chowdhury said.(“我很欣慰，这或许能激励更多人——不是不顾资源和手段的限制，而正是因为这些限制，才更应致力于兼顾人类与自然的关怀型建筑，共同应对当今在地球尺度上所面临的紧迫挑战。”乔杜里说)”可知，乔杜里主要传达了与自然和谐共处的信息。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions.(大多数医院没有排水渠来收集雨水。这正是友谊医院获得2021年英国皇家建筑师学会国际奖这一重要建筑荣誉的非凡之处之一。该医院是孟加拉国一家拥有80张床位的乡村社区医院，其设计充分展现了在预算有限、环境条件复杂的情况下，通过优秀的设计实现精美建筑的可能)”结合文章主要说明了孟加拉友谊医院凭借适配水乡环境的巧思设计斩获建筑大奖。它修建水渠收集雨水；建筑师希望该作品启发兼顾人类与自然的建筑设计。可知，D选项“获奖医院：适配水环境”最符合文章标题。 D In an era where Internet trends rise and fall rapidly, the capybara (水豚) has emerged as an unlikely star, winning the hearts of millions worldwide. As the largest rodent on Earth, this hairy, semi-aquatic mammal native to South America defies the common disgust people feel toward most rodents. Unlike rats or mice that make people scream in distaste, capybaras cause loud cries of delight with their round faces, blunt snouts, and clumsy webbed feet. They have become a cultural symbol, featured on keyrings, stationery, and luxury plush toys, with themed advent calendars even depicting them as astronauts or magicians. The capybara’s craze first emerged in the late 20th century. Keepers at a wildlife park noticed the animals loved lounging in warm pools after their enclosure was cleaned, so they built a hot spring for them. Visitors flocked to watch the capybaras bathe, and the trend spread quickly. Social media later amplified their appeal, with short videos showcasing their gentle nature gaining millions of views. Another wildlife park earned the nickname “the holy land of capybaras” — as tourists could pet and feed around 20 of them. In the 2000s, a major toy company created “Mr. Capybara” that became widely popular and was exported globally, boosting the capybara’s commercial potential further. What truly makes capybaras stand out, however, is their unique behaviour. They are not endangered, yet their small eyes, bristly fur, and calm expression give them an air of being unbothered by life’s ups and downs. Whether eating snacks, being approached by strangers with iPhones, or interacting with other animals, they remain cool and collected — earning them the sobriquet “the chillest animal on Earth”. This attitude resonates deeply in modern society, where many seek relief from daily pressures. In a world filled with anxiety and burnout, their unflappability is amazing. For stressed humans, watching capybaras lounge in pools is a reminder to “go with the flow”. Today, capybara cafes exist in America, Indonesia and other countries, while Instagram hosts over 700,000 posts far more than those for koalas or otters. Even a British zoo’s capybara petting experience is fully booked for the next year. 12. What marked the start of capybaras’ popularity? A. Capybara cafes opening in Asia. B. A hot spring built in a wildlife park. C. Capybara calendars sold in Europe. D. “Mr. Capybara” exported globally. 13. The author mentions the example of “Mr. Capybara” to illustrate ________. A. declining popularity of a once-famous cartoon figure B. advances in toy manufacturing techniques over decades C. transformation of animal charm into marketable branding D. a cultural icon’s role in guiding global consumption trends 14. What does the underlined word “unflappability” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. The ability to stay calm anytime. B. The tendency to avoid interactions. C. The desire to live peacefully. D. The adaptation to new surroundings. 15. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To present the capybara’s appeal. B. To spread petting experience. C. To advocate wildlife protection. D. To stress beforehand booking. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了水豚在全球的名声。它们起源于野生动物园的温泉，随着社交媒体和商业产品的普及而越来越受欢迎。它们平静、不受打扰的行为引起了压力大的人们的共鸣，使它们成为世界各地的文化象征和旅游景点。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The capybara’s craze first emerged in the late 20th century. Keepers at a wildlife park noticed the animals loved lounging in warm pools after their enclosure was cleaned, so they built a hot spring for them.( 水豚热最早出现在20世纪末。野生动物园的饲养员注意到，这些动物喜欢在圈地打扫干净后在温暖的水池里闲逛，所以他们为它们建了一个温泉。)”可知，水豚热潮的兴起是因为一个野生动物园为它们建造了一个温泉。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“In the 2000s, a major toy company created “Mr. Capybara” that became widely popular and was exported globally, boosting the capybara’s commercial potential further.( 21世纪初，一家大型玩具公司制作的“水豚先生”广受欢迎，并出口到全球，进一步提升了水豚的商业潜力。)”可知，提到“水豚先生”玩具是为了说明水豚的魅力已经转化为了具有市场价值的品牌（即商业价值）。故选C项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Whether eating snacks, being approached by strangers with iPhones, or interacting with other animals, they remain cool and collected — earning them the sobriquet “the chillest animal on Earth”. This attitude resonates deeply in modern society, where many seek relief from daily pressures.( 无论是吃零食，被拿着iphone的陌生人接近，还是与其他动物互动，它们都保持着冷静和镇定，因此被称为“地球上最冷静的动物”。这种态度在现代社会中引起了深刻的共鸣，许多人都在寻求缓解日常压力。)”以及划线单词句中“In a world filled with anxiety and burnout, their … is amazing.( 在一个充满焦虑和倦怠的世界里，他们的……令人惊叹。)”由此可知，“unflappability”意为“镇定自若、临危不乱”，和A选项The ability to stay calm anytime“随时保持冷静的能力”意思相近。故选A项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Today, capybara cafes exist in America, Indonesia and other countries, while Instagram hosts over 700,000 posts far more than those for koalas or otters. Even a British zoo’s capybara petting experience is fully booked for the next year.( 如今，水豚咖啡馆在美国、印度尼西亚和其他国家都有，Instagram上的帖子超过70万条，远远超过考拉或水獭的帖子。就连英国一家动物园明年的水豚抚摸体验也被预订一空。)”可知，最后一段列举了水豚咖啡馆的存在、Instagram上的海量帖子以及英国动物园预约爆满的情况。这些数据和事实都是为了具体展示水豚在全球范围内持续不减的吸引力。故选A项。 三．七选五（共5题, 每题2.5分, 共12.5分） Sleeping during the day is usually the preserve of shift workers and cats. But the science suggests that office workers can benefit, too. A randomized controlled trial in 2025 found that nappers woke up with improvements to mood, alertness and memory. ____16____ A study by the Harvard School of Public Health found that healthy adults who took regular naps had a 37% lower risk of dying from heart disease compared with non-nappers. ____17____ Sleep scientists tend to agree that a short “power” nap, somewhere between 10 and 30 minutes, is best. For example, NASA found that a 26-minute power nap enhanced pilots’ physiological awareness and performance. Nevertheless, sleep for too long and you enter the deeper phases of the 90-minute sleep cycle and wake up feeling dizzy. ____18____ So an alarm clock is a vital tool for the health-conscious. Coffee, like cappuccino, is a popular cure for midday sleepiness. ____19____ A study published recently found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory. A midday doze could even reverse the effects of a bad night’s sleep. “The rest and the spell of sleep in the middle of the day”, Churchill wrote in his autobiography, “refresh the human frame far more than a long night.” Modern sleep experts might not go so far. But if you have time for a Churchill-like catnap, it could do you some good. ____20____ A. Timing is crucial, though. B. Just remember to set an alarm. C. A “nappuccino” might work better. D. Napping habitually might also be wise. E. Coffee proves much better than short naps. F. You may also struggle to fall asleep at night. G. Taking a nap is probably a double-edged sword. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. F 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍午睡带来的多种益处，讲解了科学午睡的合适时长、午睡过长的负面影响，对比午睡和咖啡提神的效果，给出科学午睡相关建议。 【16题详解】 根据前文“A randomized controlled trial in 2025 found that nappers woke up with improvements to mood, alertness and memory.(2025年一项随机对照试验发现，午睡的人醒来后情绪、警觉性和记忆力都有所改善。)”可知，前文介绍午睡带来的好处；空后一句“A study by the Harvard School of Public Health found that healthy adults who took regular naps had a 37% lower risk of dying from heart disease compared with non-nappers.(哈佛大学公共卫生学院的一项研究发现，经常午睡的健康成年人死于心脏病的风险比不午睡的人低37%。)”继续列举午睡的另一益处。由此推知，空格句子承接上文，递进引出午睡的优势。选项D“Napping habitually might also be wise.(养成午睡习惯或许也是明智之举。)”契合上下文逻辑。 【17题详解】 根据后文“Sleep scientists tend to agree that a short “power” nap, somewhere between 10 and 30 minutes, is best.(睡眠科学家普遍认为，10到30分钟的短时高效午睡效果最好。)”可知下文围绕午睡时长展开论述，空处总领本段，强调午睡时间十分重要。选项A“Timing is crucial, though.(不过，时长十分关键。)”可以引领下文。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Nevertheless, sleep for too long and you enter the deeper phases of the 90-minute sleep cycle and wake up feeling dizzy.(但是，如果睡得太久，你就会进入90分钟睡眠周期的深度睡眠阶段，醒来后会头晕。)”以及后文“So an alarm clock is a vital tool for the health-conscious.(所以闹钟对于注重健康的人来说是必不可少的工具。)”可知，午睡太久容易头晕，因此需要设置闹钟进行控制，故空处需衔接午睡太久引起的其他后果。选项F“You may also struggle to fall asleep at night.(你夜晚可能还会难以入睡。)”中的also承接前文弊端，逻辑连贯。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Coffee, like cappuccino, is a popular cure for midday sleepiness.(卡布奇诺这类咖啡是缓解午后困倦的常用办法。)”和后文“A study published recently found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory.(近期发表的一项研究发现，短时午睡在提升警觉性与记忆力方面效果优于咖啡因。)”可知，本段对比咖啡与午睡两种提神方式。选项C“A “nappuccino” might work better.(“午睡奇诺”效果或许更好。)”自然衔接咖啡和午睡的对比话题。 【20题详解】 根据前文“But if you have time for a Churchill-like catnap, it could do you some good.(但是如果你有时间像丘吉尔那样小憩一会儿，会对你有所帮助。)”结合前文提到午睡需要控制时长，设置闹钟防止睡过头，收尾给出午睡的实用提醒可知，选项B“Just remember to set an alarm.(记得设置闹钟。)”收束全文建议。 四．完型阅读（15分） When I ran out of room on my bookshelf one day, I turned to e-books.

AI can generate text, write code, and analyze information. But it cannot create new knowledge or take moral responsibility as we do. First, asking “why” drives discovery. AI can describe how a disease spreads, but it was humans asking “why” that led to vaccines. Second, “why” involves moral judgment. AI can list options, but only humans can take responsibility — only a human can sit beside a suffering friend. These qualities are what education must develop. So be brave, be curious, and own your journey. Outsource “why,” and we lose what makes us human. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生以”AI时代：为什么‘为什么’不能外包给机器”为题写一篇征文向学校英语社投稿。 【详解】1.词汇积累 导致：lead to → result in 涉及、包含：involve → contain 选择：option → choice/selection 勇敢的：brave → courageous 2.句式拓展 合并句子 原句：AI can generate text, write code, and analyze information.

At our school, teachers and students take the same exam every month. It sounds strange, but that’s the rule. Every teacher has a “bottom line” score they must reach. If they fail twice, they get a talk. If they fail four times, they must attend training and step down from class. If they fail eight times, they lose their job. The line is not the same for everyone — older teachers get a little more room, and if the paper is unusually hard, the line moves down slightly. But it never disappears. It is a red line, and everyone knows it. The students, meanwhile, are divided into different levels based on every monthly exam. The top group enjoys almost complete freedom — they discuss difficult problems in small groups, grade their own homework, and even challenge their teachers in class, as long as they don’t cross the line into rudeness. The bottom group has a much stricter classroom, with two teachers watching from the back, one teaching and one keeping order. Nobody complains about the unfairness, because the levels are not fixed. Every month, students move up or down according to their scores. A top student who slacks off can fall. A bottom student who works hard can rise. But the strangest part is the reward system. Students who score above a certain high mark are allowed to use the school’s internet café and billiard room for two hours a day during school days, and up to eight hours on holidays. And those who win the full-year scholarship get something even more unbelievable — a month’s stay in a luxury hotel suite, one room each, with a life teacher on duty and no visitors allowed. The school has signed a formal agreement with the hotel. Parents must give written permission. Everything is arranged, down to the smallest detail. I never told anyone outside school about this. It sounded too crazy to be true. Who would believe that a school would run itself like a company, with salaries tied to performance, students moving like stocks, and rewards that look more like prizes in a game show than anything a school should offer? Paragraph 1: One day, my cousin came to visit and saw the notice on the wall. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After I explained everything, he was silent for a long time. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: One day, my cousin came to visit and saw the notice on the wall. He stared in shock at the rules: teachers must take exams monthly, and poor results bring punishments ranging from talks to dismissal. Good students can win hotel stays. A scoreboard showed teachers’ scores alongside students’. I told him ability alone counted. Meeting the standard brought freedom; failing it brought pressure, with no special treatment for anyone. Paragraph 2: After I explained everything, he was silent for a long time. After a long silence, he finally voiced his doubt whether teachers would be afraid of scoring less than their students. I corrected him: they feared the standard, while ordinary students feared being downgraded. Top students enjoyed freedom to discuss, challenge and mark their own work, with teachers only offering problems for them to solve. He called it a competition. I agreed it was tough but fair — no one got special privileges, only those keeping up could stay. He said he wished his school worked this way. I smiled and said he only wished he were among the top students. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一所学校实行特别制度：师生每月同考，教师有及格红线，多次不达标会受处分甚至解聘；学生依据月考分层，层级每月流动。高分学生可使用校内休闲场所，年度奖学金得主还能入住豪华酒店套房。作者一直没对外提起这件事，觉得它听起来太过离奇。表弟来访看到规则大为震惊，作者向他解释这套残酷却公平的竞争机制。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写表弟看到墙上通知后的震惊反应，作者向他详细介绍学校这套月考奖惩制度，表弟不断提出疑问。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写听完解释后表弟陷入沉思，感慨这不像学校更像赛场，作者道出这套规则残酷却公平的本质，最后点出表弟只是向往处于顶尖行列。 2.续写线索：表弟来访→看见通知→大为震惊→讲解制度→表弟疑惑→听完沉思→称这是竞赛→认同残酷公平→表弟羡慕→点破真相 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①纠正：correct/redress ②解决：solve/address 情绪类 ①吃惊：in shock/in surprise ②怀疑：doubt/suspect 【点睛】[高分句型1] After a long silence, he finally voiced his doubt whether teachers would be afraid of scoring less than their students.(运用了whether引导同位语从句) [高分句型2] I smiled and said he only wished he were among the top students.(运用了省略that的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年度四川省彭州中学高2024级高三上10月阶段性考试 英语学科试题 注意事项： 1. 考试时间120分钟, 满分为150分； 2. 选择题请用2B铅笔填涂, 非选择题部分请用0.5mm黑色墨迹签字笔书写； 3. 考试结束后, 将试卷, 答题卡, 草稿纸交回。 4. 请严格遵守考试纪律, 违反考试纪律的学生会被处分, 同时取消该学年所有评优评先资格。 一、听力部分（共20题, 每题1.5分, 共30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分, 满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.

Would you like to do real science out in nature? Community science invites members of the public to address real scientific questions, and participants often work side by side with professional scientists. In our parks, volunteers help conduct species and ecosystem inventories and monitoring, filling gaps in our understanding of the local environment. No prior experience is required, and we provide free training and tools for all participants. Our programs • Raptor Watch: Join us in counting hawks and eagles as they pass over the park each autumn, helping to protect California’s birds of prey. • Wildlife Camera Project: Motion-activated cameras placed across the mountains record mammal activity year-round. Volunteers check the images and identify the animals. • Wild Bee Survey: Every summer, volunteers walk fixed routes through grasslands to record the wild bees visiting flowers. • BioBlitz Day: A one-day event each spring. Working with scientists, teams find and photograph as many species as possible in one area using a free phone app. How to get involved? Volunteers aged 12 and up are welcome, and family groups are also encouraged to join. Most programs run on weekends and require two to four hours per visit. Some programs, such as the Wildlife Camera Project, ask volunteers to complete a half-day training first, which is provided free at our visitor center. Places are limited, so early registration is advised. Visit our website calendar to find upcoming events, or email communityscience@parks.org for more information. Join us — you will learn new skills, make new friends, and help protect the natural world around you. 1. Which can Jack choose if he is only free for a single day in spring? A. Raptor Watch. B. Wildlife Camera Project. C. Wild Bee Survey. D. BioBlitz Day. 2. What are volunteers required to do in the Wildlife Camera Project? A. Set up motion-activated cameras in the mountains. B.

To encourage people to do science outdoors. B. To explain how cameras monitor wild animals. C. To advertise free weekend activities for teenagers. D. To introduce several science programs in the parks. B For years, Shay Taylor-Allen walked the halls of Yale New Haven Hospital with a mop and cleaning cart, making sure patient rooms were spotless. Soon, she’ll be walking those same halls with a stethoscope (听诊器) — this time as a doctor. Her journey didn’t follow a traditional path. After graduating in the top 10 percent of her class at Wilbur Cross High School in Connecticut, Taylor had the potential to go far — but not the guidance. At just 18, needing to earn a living, she took a job as a janitor at Yale New Haven Hospital. What started as a practical decision turned into nearly a decade of hard, honest work, cleaning patient rooms and offices. Then life took a turn that would change everything. After a devastating house fire, Taylor’s mother suffered severe lung damage and began struggling to breathe. After seeking medical treatment from multiple doctors, her mother finally received a diagnosis: dysfunction (功能紊乱), a rare condition that had been overlooked. That moment lit a spark. She wanted to become a doctor and advocate for patients who weren’t being heard. The road ahead wasn’t easy. With no clear roadmap, Taylor had to figure out each step on her own — often starting with a simple online search. She enrolled in classes at Southern Connecticut State University, later earning a master’s degree from Quinnipiac University to complete the science courses needed for medical school. And through it all, she kept working. By day, she studied. By night, she returned to the hospital, continuing her janitor job while saving money for application fees and the MCAT (Medical College Admissions Test). Her determination paid off. Taylor was accepted into Howard University College of Medicine — and recently, she received life-changing news. She was matched to a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital. The very same hospital where her journey began. 4. What can be known about Taylor’s performance at high school? A. Average. B. Outstanding. C. Friendly. D. Popular. 5. What can be inferred from the fact that Taylor was matched to a residency at Yale New Haven Hospital? A. She will now work in the same hospital where she once cleaned rooms. B. She has decided to give up medicine and return to her old job. C. She was rejected by Howard University College of Medicine. D. She became a doctor mainly to earn more money than before. 6. What inspired Taylor to pursue a career in medicine? A. The need to support herself. B. The desire to earn more. C. Her mother’s suffering. D. Her family’s request. 7. What is the author’s attitude towards Taylor’s journey? A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Indifferent. D. Admiring. C Most hospitals don’t have a canal (排水渠) to collect rainwater. That’s one of the unusual features that earned a major architecture honor — the 2021 RIBA International Prize — for Friendship Hospital, an 80-bed rural community hospital in Bangladesh. It is a demonstration of how beautiful architecture can be achieved through good design when working with a relatively modest budget and with difficult contextual restrictions. Located in Shyamnagar in the southern region of Bangladesh, Friendship Hospital was designed to meld (融合) with the water-laden local environment, which is filled with shrimp fisheries and crisscrossed by rivers. The hospital is surrounded by former grain fields that now sit underwater due to sea level rise (the land has been transformed into the shrimp fisheries as a result). But the substantial supply of water surrounding the structure can’t be easily used for drinking water and other purposes because of its high salinity level (含盐量). The hospital’s relationship with rainwater was a key element in the prize. Its major design feature is a canal that zigzags along the length of the hospital, splitting the outpatient building from the building for inpatient services. The canal collects rainwater from the site, which is then stored in a tank so that it can be used by the hospital. The cycle of disastrous flooding in Bangladesh is caused by the combination of cyclones, monsoons and snowmelt from the Himalayas. As climate change makes rainfall more unstable and powerful storms even more intense, millions in Bangladesh are facing destructive effects, including loss of agricultural land due to sea level rise. The designer, architect Kashef Chowdhury hopes the award will inspire people to commit to architecture that cares for humans and nature alike. “I am encouraged that this may inspire more of us to commit, not in spite of, but because of limitations of resources and means, to an architecture of care both for humanity and for nature, to rise collectively to the urgencies that we face today on a planetary scale, “Chowdhury said. 8. What leads Friendship Hospital to win the architecture prize? A. Its service level. B. Its design philosophy. C. Its long history. D. Its hard construction. 9. How does Friendship Hospital tackle local rainwater? A. It collects rainwater for hospital use. B. It recycles rainwater for farm irrigation. C. It desalts rainwater for patients’ daily drinking. D. It stores rainwater in tanks for shrimp fisheries. 10. What message does Chowdhury mainly convey? A. Be in awe of nature. B. Man can overcome nature. C. Be at one with nature. D. Inspiration springs from nature. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. RIBA International Prize in Bangladesh B. Hospital’s Victory over Climate Change C. Special Canal: An Amazing Architecture World D. Prized Hospital: Fitting into a Watery Environment D In an era where Internet trends rise and fall rapidly, the capybara (水豚) has emerged as an unlikely star, winning the hearts of millions worldwide. As the largest rodent on Earth, this hairy, semi-aquatic mammal native to South America defies the common disgust people feel toward most rodents. Unlike rats or mice that make people scream in distaste, capybaras cause loud cries of delight with their round faces, blunt snouts, and clumsy webbed feet. They have become a cultural symbol, featured on keyrings, stationery, and luxury plush toys, with themed advent calendars even depicting them as astronauts or magicians. The capybara’s craze first emerged in the late 20th century. Keepers at a wildlife park noticed the animals loved lounging in warm pools after their enclosure was cleaned, so they built a hot spring for them. Visitors flocked to watch the capybaras bathe, and the trend spread quickly. Social media later amplified their appeal, with short videos showcasing their gentle nature gaining millions of views. Another wildlife park earned the nickname “the holy land of capybaras” — as tourists could pet and feed around 20 of them. In the 2000s, a major toy company created “Mr. Capybara” that became widely popular and was exported globally, boosting the capybara’s commercial potential further. What truly makes capybaras stand out, however, is their unique behaviour. They are not endangered, yet their small eyes, bristly fur, and calm expression give them an air of being unbothered by life’s ups and downs. Whether eating snacks, being approached by strangers with iPhones, or interacting with other animals, they remain cool and collected — earning them the sobriquet “the chillest animal on Earth”. This attitude resonates deeply in modern society, where many seek relief from daily pressures. In a world filled with anxiety and burnout, their unflappability is amazing. For stressed humans, watching capybaras lounge in pools is a reminder to “go with the flow”. Today, capybara cafes exist in America, Indonesia and other countries, while Instagram hosts over 700,000 posts far more than those for koalas or otters. Even a British zoo’s capybara petting experience is fully booked for the next year. 12. What marked the start of capybaras’ popularity? A. Capybara cafes opening in Asia. B. A hot spring built in a wildlife park. C. Capybara calendars sold in Europe. D. “Mr. Capybara” exported globally. 13. The author mentions the example of “Mr. Capybara” to illustrate ________. A. declining popularity of a once-famous cartoon figure B. advances in toy manufacturing techniques over decades C. transformation of animal charm into marketable branding D. a cultural icon’s role in guiding global consumption trends 14. What does the underlined word “unflappability” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. The ability to stay calm anytime. B. The tendency to avoid interactions. C. The desire to live peacefully. D. The adaptation to new surroundings. 15. What’s the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To present the capybara’s appeal. B. To spread petting experience. C. To advocate wildlife protection. D. To stress beforehand booking. 三．七选五（共5题, 每题2.5分, 共12.5分） Sleeping during the day is usually the preserve of shift workers and cats. But the science suggests that office workers can benefit, too.

For example, NASA found that a 26-minute power nap enhanced pilots’ physiological awareness and performance. Nevertheless, sleep for too long and you enter the deeper phases of the 90-minute sleep cycle and wake up feeling dizzy. ____18____ So an alarm clock is a vital tool for the health-conscious. Coffee, like cappuccino, is a popular cure for midday sleepiness. ____19____ A study published recently found power naps to be more effective than caffeine at improving alertness and memory. A midday doze could even reverse the effects of a bad night’s sleep. “The rest and the spell of sleep in the middle of the day”, Churchill wrote in his autobiography, “refresh the human frame far more than a long night.” Modern sleep experts might not go so far. But if you have time for a Churchill-like catnap, it could do you some good. ____20____ A. Timing is crucial, though. B. Just remember to set an alarm. C. A “nappuccino” might work better. D. Napping habitually might also be wise. E. Coffee proves much better than short naps. F. You may also struggle to fall asleep at night. G. Taking a nap is probably a double-edged sword. 四．完型阅读（15分） When I ran out of room on my bookshelf one day, I turned to e-books.

At our school, teachers and students take the same exam every month. It sounds strange, but that’s the rule. Every teacher has a “bottom line” score they must reach. If they fail twice, they get a talk. If they fail four times, they must attend training and step down from class. If they fail eight times, they lose their job. The line is not the same for everyone — older teachers get a little more room, and if the paper is unusually hard, the line moves down slightly. But it never disappears. It is a red line, and everyone knows it. The students, meanwhile, are divided into different levels based on every monthly exam. The top group enjoys almost complete freedom — they discuss difficult problems in small groups, grade their own homework, and even challenge their teachers in class, as long as they don’t cross the line into rudeness. The bottom group has a much stricter classroom, with two teachers watching from the back, one teaching and one keeping order. Nobody complains about the unfairness, because the levels are not fixed. Every month, students move up or down according to their scores. A top student who slacks off can fall. A bottom student who works hard can rise. But the strangest part is the reward system. Students who score above a certain high mark are allowed to use the school’s internet café and billiard room for two hours a day during school days, and up to eight hours on holidays. And those who win the full-year scholarship get something even more unbelievable — a month’s stay in a luxury hotel suite, one room each, with a life teacher on duty and no visitors allowed. The school has signed a formal agreement with the hotel. Parents must give written permission. Everything is arranged, down to the smallest detail. I never told anyone outside school about this. It sounded too crazy to be true. Who would believe that a school would run itself like a company, with salaries tied to performance, students moving like stocks, and rewards that look more like prizes in a game show than anything a school should offer? Paragraph 1: One day, my cousin came to visit and saw the notice on the wall. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After I explained everything, he was silent for a long time. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
