Born in Budapest, Hungary, on March 24, 1874, he moved to the United States with his family at the age of four. He grew up in a common family in Wisconsin and lived a simple life in his childhood. He deeply admired a French magician named Jean Eugene Robert-Houdin, so he created his stage name after him, which later became a symbol for daring and spectacular escapes. Yet Houdini’s early career was far from successful. For years, he struggled to make a living by performing card tricks and small illusions at carnivals and street shows. His life changed completely when he discovered his extraordinary talent for breaking free from tight controls. His simple handcuff (手铐) escapes gradually evolved into daring tricks that attracted audiences worldwide. He freed himself from locked milk cans filled with water, got out of the dangerous Water Torture Cell while hanging upside down, and even survived after being buried six feet underground. These heart-stopping performances earned him the nickname “The Handcuff King” and made him one of the highest-paid entertainers of his time. Beyond his stage career, Houdini committed himself to exposing dishonest mediums and spiritualists who preyed on heart-broken families by pretending to communicate with their dead relatives. Believing that truth should never be sacrificed for profit, Houdini felt a strong responsibility to protect ordinary people from being cheated. Drawing on his comprehensive knowledge of magic skills, he clearly revealed how these cheaters created false illusions to fool common people. This meaningful act won him great praise, but also invited hatred and criticism from those he exposed. Unfortunately, Houdini’s remarkable life came to a sudden end in 1926, when he was only 52 years old. Up to now, almost a century has passed, but his innovative spirit, wonderful performing skills and persistent pursuit of truth continue to encourage modern performers and those who stick to facts, securing his legacy as the greatest escape artist in history. 24．What can we learn about Harry Houdini from paragraph 1? A．He was born into a well-off family. B．He moved to the USA in his teens. C．He was the best magician in history. D．He took his stage name in honor of his idol. 25．Why does the author describe Houdini’s escape acts? A．To illustrate his path to success. B．To compare different magic styles. C．To show how dangerous they are. D．To uncover the secrets behind them. 26．What drove Houdini to reveal dishonest spiritualists? A．His plan to get back at his critics. B．His desire for more recognition. C．His eagerness to prove his magic skills. D．His sense of justice and responsibility. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Rise of a Magic Legend B．A Magician’s Amazing Live Shows C．Houdini: More Than a Great Escape Artist D．Houdini: Champion Against Fake Spiritualists 【答案】24．D 25．A 26．D 27．C 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了传奇逃脱魔术师哈里·胡迪尼的生平。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“He deeply admired a French magician named Jean Eugene Robert-Houdin, so he created his stage name after him (他非常钦佩一位名叫让·欧仁·罗贝尔-乌丹的法国魔术师，因此以他的名字为自己取了艺名)”可知，胡迪尼的艺名是为了致敬偶像。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的句子“Yet Houdini’s early career was far from successful. For years, he struggled to make a living by performing card tricks and small illusions at carnivals and street shows. His life changed completely when he discovered his extraordinary talent for breaking free from tight controls.(然而，胡迪尼的早期职业生涯远非成功。多年来，他努力靠在嘉年华和街头表演纸牌戏法和小幻术谋生。当他发现自己有挣脱牢固控制的非凡天赋时，他的生活完全改变了。)”和“These heart-stopping performances earned him the nickname ‘The Handcuff King’ and made him one of the highest-paid entertainers of his time (这些惊心动魄的表演为他赢得了“手铐之王”的称号，使他成为当时收入最高的艺人之一)”可知，描述逃脱表演是为了展示他的成功之路。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Believing that truth should never be sacrificed for profit, Houdini felt a strong responsibility to protect ordinary people from being cheated. (胡迪尼认为真相绝不应为了利益而牺牲，他感到有强烈的责任保护普通人不被欺骗)”可知，是正义感和责任感驱使他这么做。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，从胡迪尼的逃脱表演成就，到揭露虚假通灵者的义举，再到他对后世的影响，都体现了他不仅是伟大的逃脱艺术家，更是坚守真理的斗士。所以C项“Houdini: More Than a Great Escape Artist(胡迪尼：不仅仅是一个伟大的逃脱艺术家)”最能概括文章主题。 【二、浙江宁波市北仑中学2026-2027学年高三上学期返校考英语试题】 Who will take care of grandma and grandpa when no one is available? This question is becoming urgent as the population is aging rapidly and fewer children are being born. For many families, the answer might soon be a robot. This might sound like science fiction, but the reasons are practical, mainly financial. Hiring someone to help with aging loved ones is prohibitively expensive — upwards of $75,000 a year for a home health aide and well over $100,000 for a nursing home. In comparison, one estimate places the cost of a humanoid robot at just $20,000. Given this affordability, I believe that robots will assume the care of many elderly people. A robot could potentially be a one-time expense, requiring minimal maintenance and receiving updates through cloud computing technology. And it could function around the clock. I’ve treated elderly patients who had been found wandering the streets or severely dehydrated (脱水的) because of gaps in care. A tireless robot — made possible by improved battery life and the ability to self-charge — could mitigate such problems. Reliable robotic companions could also accompany seniors outside the home for walks or to community events, enhancing rather than weakening their social connections. Furthermore, while actual human contact is preferable, it has real drawbacks. Human caregivers can lose their tempers, but robots are unlikely to have that problem. In a recent study, observers found AI-generated responses to be more empathetic and compassionate (有同情心的) than those of humans — a surprising but telling result. A robot with AI-assisted voice technology could potentially understand emotion and intent, clarify instructions, and respond to commands in real time. But where does that leave us? If I know that grandma has her robot, will I opt not to drop by after work when I’m exhausted? Will the neighbors stop checking on her? As her faculties (机能) fail, will she feel more at ease with the robot than with her family? 24. What is a robot’s main practical advantage in elder care? A. Its lower long-term cost. B. Its guarantee of total safety. C. Its ability to show friendship. D. Its simple setup and operation. 25. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ease. B. Cause. C. Ignore. D. Discover. 26. What does the author imply by citing the AI study in paragraph 4? A. The urgent need to replace human care. B. The potential of AI in showing empathy. C. The general weakness of human caregivers. D. The importance of human emotional interaction. 27. How does the author sound in the last paragraph? A. Angry and intolerant. B. Reflective and concerned. C. Indifferent and dismissive. D. Sympathetic and confused. 【答案】24. A 25. A 26. B 27. B 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述人口老龄化催生养老机器人需求，介绍其成本、服务优势，也反思了其可能带来的社会问题。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This might sound like science fiction, but the reasons are practical, mainly financial. Hiring someone to help with aging loved ones is prohibitively expensive — upwards of $75,000 a year for a home health aide and well over $100,000 for a nursing home. In comparison, one estimate places the cost of a humanoid robot at just $20,000.(这听起来或许像科幻故事，但背后的原因很实际，主要是经济原因。雇佣人员照顾年迈亲人的费用高得令人望而却步——一名居家护工年薪高达7.5万美元，养老院费用更是远超10万美元。相比之下，据一项估算，人形机器人的成本仅为2万美元)”以及第三段“A robot could potentially be a one-time expense, requiring minimal maintenance and receiving updates through cloud computing technology.(机器人可能只需一次性投入，维护成本极低，还可通过云计算技术更新系统)”可知，养老机器人最实际的优势是长期使用成本更低。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“I’ve treated elderly patients who had been found wandering the streets or severely dehydrated because of gaps in care. A tireless robot — made possible by improved battery life and the ability to self-charge — could mitigate such problems.(我曾接诊过一些老年患者，他们因护理疏漏流落街头或严重脱水。续航提升、可自主充电的不知疲倦的机器人能够mitigate这类问题)”可知，机器人可以减少、改善护理疏漏引发的问题，由此猜测mitigate意为“减轻、缓解”，与ease同义。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“In a recent study, observers found AI-generated responses to be more empathetic and compassionate than those of humans — a surprising but telling result.(在近期一项研究中，观察者发现人工智能给出的回应比人类更体贴、更富有同情心，这一结果出人意料却很有说服力)”可知，作者引用该研究，意在说明人工智能在共情表达方面具备潜在优势。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But where does that leave us? If I know that grandma has her robot, will I opt not to drop by after work when I’m exhausted? Will the neighbors stop checking on her? As her faculties fail, will she feel more at ease with the robot than with her family?(但这会让我们身处何种境地？如果我知道奶奶有机器人照料，疲惫下班后我是否会选择不再登门探望？邻居们是否会不再照看她？当她身体机能衰退时，她是否会比起家人，更愿意信赖机器人？)”可知，作者连用多个问句，反思机器人养老带来的人际疏离问题，态度审慎且充满担忧。 【三、浙江G12名校协作体2026-2027学年高三上学期返校英语测试试题】 A few years ago, our administrative team sent home what we thought was a clear English message regarding a schedule change about an upcoming assessment. The next week, a visibly frustrated mother stopped me in the hallway. She said, in Spanish, that she hadn’t known anything about the schedule change. Her child was embarrassed and anxious, because they felt unprepared for the assessment. From the school’s point of view, we had “communicated.” From the family’s point of view, we hadn’t. About 40 percent of the students at our middle school are Hispanic, and many speak Spanish or another language at home. Each year, we welcome dozens of newcomers, including students with interrupted formal education. The math is simple: Communication needs far outpace available bilingual teachers. Our first move was to stop rewriting the same messages from scratch. We created a shared cloud folder with message banks for our most common situations. Each pattern follows a simple, translation-friendly structure. We drafted everything in plain English first, avoiding idioms and long sentences. Then, with help from our bilingual staff, we created Spanish versions of the most-used patterns. We also realized that not every message needs to be a long email. Listening to a 60-to-90-second message — even with imperfect translation — is often easier for busy families. These messages are scripted from our banks, so they stay concise. Families have told us that hearing a familiar voice, even if they rely on the captions (字幕), helps them feel more connected and less intimidated. Memories might fail us when we try to track the families we’ve contacted. So we’ve created a shared contact log. It is now a complement to our student information system — it gives us a quick, human-centered view of communication patterns. When communication becomes more consistent and accessible, families feel like true partners. And when families can actually hear us — and we can truly hear them — everything else we’re trying to improve at school becomes a little bit easier. 24. Why did the mother feel upset? A. Because her son struggled to fit in. B. Because the message didn’t get across. C. Because her son failed the assessment. D. Because she forgot the schedule change. 25. What can we infer from paragraph 3? A. Bilingual teachers are in short supply. B. Communication class is not available. C. Students must learn a second language. D. Math in middle school is easy to learn. 26. Which of the following could be an appropriate school message? A. “Pass the test with flying colors.” B. “Test time is changed to this Friday.” C. “Hit the books for the upcoming test.” D. “Not until Friday will the test begin.” 27. Which of the following best describes the school’s practice? A. Complex. B. Inclusive. C. Ambitious. D. Conventional. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了学校因英文通知未能有效传达给西班牙语家庭，转而建立翻译友好信息库、语音留言和共享联系日志等包容性沟通实践，促进家校合作。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“She said, in Spanish, that she hadn’t known anything about the schedule change. Her child was embarrassed and anxious, because they felt unprepared for the assessment. From the school’s point of view, we had “communicated.” From the family’s point of view, we hadn’t. (她用西班牙语说，她对日程变更一无所知。她的孩子感到尴尬和焦虑，因为他们对评估准备不足。从学校的角度来看，我们已经“沟通”了。从家庭的角度来说，我们没有)”可知，这位母亲感到沮丧是因为关于日程变更的信息没有成功传达给她。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“About 40 percent of the students at our middle school are Hispanic, and many speak Spanish or another language at home. Each year, we welcome dozens of newcomers, including students with interrupted formal education. The math is simple: Communication needs far outpace available bilingual teachers. (我们中学大约40%的学生是西班牙裔，许多人在家里说西班牙语或其他语言。每年，我们都会迎来几十名新学生，包括那些正规教育中断的学生。算术很简单：沟通需求远远超过了可用的双语教师)”可推知，双语教师供不应求。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“We drafted everything in plain English first, avoiding idioms and long sentences. (我们首先用简单的英语起草所有内容，避免习语和长句)”可知，学校的信息应避免习语和长句，使用简单易懂的英语。选项中“Test time is changed to this Friday.(测试时间改为本周五)”表达直接、无习语、无复杂句式，符合学校的沟通原则。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是第四段“We created a shared cloud folder with message banks for our most common situations.(我们创建了一个共享云文件夹，为最常见的情况提供信息库)”、第五段“Listening to a 60-to-90-second message — even with imperfect translation — is often easier for busy families. (对于忙碌的家庭来说，听一段60到90秒的信息——即使翻译不完美——通常也更容易接受)”以及第六段“It is now a complement to our student information system — it gives us a quick, human-centered view of communication patterns. (它现在是我们学生信息系统的补充——它为我们提供了一个快速的、以人为中心的沟通模式视图)”可知，学校的这些做法考虑到了不同语言背景家庭的需求，体现了包容性的特点。 【四、2027届浙江省强基联盟高三上学期8月返校考英语试题】 About 10 years ago, I invited my dad to stay at my fancy flat. I proudly showed him the advanced audio system, the multi-level lighting, and the television operated by a single touchscreen remote. Having encouraged him to relax, I headed to work. Returning that night, however, I found the place in darkness. Switching on the light, I saw him sitting alone, an error message flashing across the TV screen. “I tried,” he said, looking frustrated, “but got nowhere with anything, so I just gave up.” At that time, I was somehow annoyed with him, but to be honest, 10 years on I am still struggling with the stupid lights, TV and sound system myself. My parents’ difficulties are becoming my own, and I am angry at everyone involved in the design of anything. In the interest of greater functionality, everything is being over engineered to the point — for many people — of non-functionality. It’s not just household appliances. Smartphones made the screen highly touch-sensitive: a light press does one thing, a hard press another. For older people, a hard stab often brings up unexpected menus, deepening their desperation. Does the “smart” in smartphone refer to the brilliance required of its users? And symbols for words are a problem everywhere. To access a start menu, you no longer click “Start”; you click on a symbol of a window. To forward an email, you click on three vertical dots. Why? Yes, we are always going to be somewhat confused by the world as old age comes around. But these endless, daily tests and trials set by the march of technology are real breakers of spirit and hidden barriers shutting them out. The biggest tragedy is that technology could be more helpful for older people if only they were able to use it easily. Honestly, those who design this stuff are plainly doing so for people close in age to themselves. However, it might be well worth remembering that, one day, their time will come. 24. What made the father feel frustrated? A. Watching terrible news on TV. B. Sitting alone at the fancy flat. C. Failing to operate smart devices. D. Breaking the touchscreen remote. 25. Why does the author mention the examples in paragraph 3? A. To complain devices require extreme brilliance. B. To explain symbols cause operational confusion. C. To show touch-sensitive screens spoil older users. D. To prove over engineering weakens basic usability. 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Smart devices will be targeted at the elderly. B. Future technologies will leave seniors behind. C. Designers should consider the needs of seniors. D. Youngsters should teach older users practical skills. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Less Tests, Brighter Future B. More Functions, Greater Ease C. Older Users, Better Designers D. Smarter Devices, Tougher Lives 【答案】24.C 25.D 26.C 27.D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议的议论文。文章主要讲的是作者通过父亲难以操作智能设备及自身经历，批评现代科技产品被过度设计而降低基本可用性，给老年人等群体带来使用障碍，呼吁设计者考虑老年人的需求。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中父亲的话"I tried ...but got nowhere with anything, sol just gave up."可知，父亲感到沮丧是因为他尝试使用公寓里的智能设备，但什么也操作不了，即未能成功操作智能设备。故选C。 【25题详解】段落意图题。第三段列举智能手机触控力度不同会弹出意外菜单、用符号代替文字等例子，是为了进一步印证第二段末的观点:一切都被过度设计，以至于对许多人来说反而无法正常使用，即过度设计削弱了基本可用性。故选D。 【26题详解】推理判断题。最后一段指出，技术本可以帮助老年人，但设计师只是在为和自己年龄相仿的人设计;作者还提醒设计师"他们的那一天也会到来"。由此可推知，设计者应该考虑老年人的需求。故选C。 【27题详解】主旨大意题。文章从父亲和作者自身经历出发，论述智能设备过度复杂使老年人乃至普通人生活更加困难。标题"Smarter Devices,Tougher Lives"用对比方式准确概括了文章主旨。故选D。 【五、浙江宁波市镇海中学2026-2027学年高三上学期开学考英语试题】 A book fair is an event where different types of books are displayed and sold. I, a curious boy, visited the Ekushey Boi Mela this year. It is one of the biggest book fairs in Bangladesh, usually held in February. On the very first day, I walked over to visit the exhibition immediately after school. I entered the fair and began to move from one stall (摊位) to another with great interest. There were many people at the exhibition. Most were school children like me. I saw all sorts of books such as fiction, textbooks, dramas, children’s books, and reference books. One good thing about exhibitions is that they usually offer free gifts. This exhibition was no different. Men, women, and children of all ages and backgrounds gathered there. At a counter near the entrance, I registered to be a member of the book shop and I received a small calculator as a gift. Inside the main hall, I was amazed by the number of books on display. There were books on computers, science, technology, music, cookery, travel, business, self-help, and general interests. Other items on display included encyclopedias, maps, novels, magazines, and even greeting cards. In addition, there was a huge collection of dictionaries. Also available were computer software, CDs, and other digital media. Next, I moved on to less crowded areas and looked at the books. There were many that I would love to get my hands on but my financial status did not allow it. So I looked through as many as I could. In that way, I happily whiled away a whole afternoon. I enjoyed my visit to the book fair very much. It reminded me of the simple joy of reading. 24. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 1? A. To show the author’s social identity. B. To set the scene for the author’s visit. C. To contrast fairs with regular bookshops. D. To advertise the fair’s opening ceremony. 25. What benefit did the author get by registering at the counter? A. A useful device for free. B. A discount on all books. C. A permit to enter the hall early. D. A membership card with a fee. 26. What aspect of the book fair does paragraph 3 mainly cover? A. The impact of the fair. B. The review of visitors. C. The wide range of publications shown. D. The message that books convey. 27. What does the underlined phrase “whiled away” in the last paragraph mean? A. Wasted. B. Lost. C. Passed. D. Missed. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者作为一个充满好奇心的男孩参观孟加拉国Ekushey Boi Mela书展的经历，包括书展的规模、展品种类、注册礼品以及作者在书展中度过愉快午后的体验。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“A book fair is an event where different types of books are displayed and sold. I, a curious boy, visited the Ekushey Boi Mela this year. It is one of the biggest book fairs in Bangladesh, usually held in February. On the very first day, I walked over to visit the exhibition immediately after school. (书展是展示和销售各类书籍的活动。我，一个充满好奇心的男孩，今年参观了Ekushey Boi Mela。它是孟加拉国最大的书展之一，通常在二月举行。第一天，我放学后就立刻去参观了展览。)”可知，第一段先介绍了书展的概念，然后引出作者参观书展的背景，目的是为作者的书展之行铺垫场景。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“At a counter near the entrance, I registered to be a member of the book shop and I received a small calculator as a gift. (在入口附近的柜台，我注册成为书店会员，收到了一个小计算器作为礼物。)”可知，作者通过在柜台注册获得了一个免费的实用小工具——计算器。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Inside the main hall, I was amazed by the number of books on display. There were books on computers, science, technology, music, cookery, travel, business, self-help, and general interests. Other items on display included encyclopedias, maps, novels, magazines, and even greeting cards. In addition, there was a huge collection of dictionaries. Also available were computer software, CDs, and other digital media. (在主厅里，我对展出的书籍数量感到惊叹。有关于计算机、科学、技术、音乐、烹饪、旅行、商业、自助和一般兴趣的书籍。其他展品包括百科全书、地图、小说、杂志甚至贺卡。此外，还有大量词典。还有电脑软件、光盘和其他数字媒体。)”可知，第三段主要介绍了书展上展出的各种各样的出版物和物品。 【27题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“There were many that I would love to get my hands on but my financial status did not allow it. So I looked through as many as I could. In that way, I happily whiled away a whole afternoon. (有很多书我很想买，但我的经济状况不允许。所以我尽可能多地翻阅。就这样，我愉快地whiled away了一整个下午。)”可知，作者因为买不起书只能翻阅，愉快地度过了一个下午，由此可推知“whiled away”意为“消磨、度过”，与Passed意思相近。 【六、浙江省杭州市学军中学2026-2027学年高三上学期英语试题】 Maggie Doyne is caring for and educating helpless children and orphans in rural Nepal. What started with a plot of land that she purchased with her babysitting money has become a global model for poverty relief and development through her nonprofit, BlinkNow Foundation. After high school, Doyne began her work after meeting a young girl in Surkhet, Nepal, whose life was ruined during the country’s decades-long civil conflict. Today, Doyne cares for 93 children, addressing their immediate needs and supporting them for long-term growth and self-sufficiency. The organization also has a separate home for at-risk girls who have been victims of harm, human trafficking (贩卖) and violence, a food and farming program that trains women and farmers, and a full-service medical clinic. Doyne and a team of 175 caregivers, teachers, and professionals work together to offer comprehensive services that address the roots of poverty. Her Kopila Valley School, once a small “bamboo shack (棚屋)”, has now served 1,000 students with state-of-the-art facilities, modern technology, and diverse course offerings. Students participate in gardening, farming, and conservation classes and are provided healthy meals to address poor nutrition. There is a daycare, as well as a readiness program called “Futures” to launch students toward college and job training programs. At a speaking engagement in Los Angeles, Doyne connected with a filmmaker who shared a passion for humanitarian causes and storytelling. He started documenting Doyne’s work and life story. And the two began a journey together, professionally and personally. Now married, they raise their children in Nepal among their 93 siblings (兄弟姊妹). Hope and action are ideas that Doyne made a reality two decades ago. And today, her message remains: “Keep doing what you can, no matter where you are. Keep showing up, keep loving, and keep going with your acts of kindness. It all matters.” 24. Where did Doyne’s early fund for charity land come from? A. Donations from a filmmaker. B. Income from school students. C. Earnings from her former job. D. Support from medical workers. 25. What inspired Doyne to start charity work in Nepal? A. A speech about global poverty relief. B. An encounter with a girl in Surkhet. C. A bamboo school built by local farmers. D. A medical clinic for homeless children. 26. What is the “Futures” program designed for? A. Training local women in farming skills. B. Offering medical treatment for poor girls. C. Building modern classrooms for rural children. D. Preparing teenagers for further study and career. 27. Which of the following can best describe Doyne’s approach to poverty relief? A. Systematic and sustainable. B. All-sided and imaginary. C. Personalized and traditional. D. Accidental and immoral. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Maggie Doyne在尼泊尔乡村投身慈善事业，建立非营利机构帮扶贫困儿童，开展多类项目助力当地脱贫发展的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“What started with a plot of land that she purchased with her babysitting money has become a global model for poverty relief and development through her nonprofit, BlinkNow Foundation.(最初，她用照看孩子赚来的钱买下一块土地，如今通过她的非营利机构BlinkNow基金会，已经成为扶贫与发展的全球典范。)”可知，Doyne早期慈善土地的资金来自她以前做保姆工作的收入。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“After high school, Doyne began her work after meeting a young girl in Surkhet, Nepal, whose life was ruined during the country’s decades-long civil conflict.(高中毕业后，Doyne在尼泊尔苏尔凯特遇到一位小女孩之后开启了她的事业，这个女孩的生活在该国长达数十年的内战中遭到摧毁。)”可知，在苏尔凯特偶遇一个女孩激发了Doyne在尼泊尔开展慈善工作的想法。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There is a daycare, as well as a readiness program called ‘Futures’ to launch students toward college and job training programs.(这里设有日托中心，还有一个名为‘Futures’的预备项目，帮助学生步入大学以及参与职业培训项目。)”可知，“Futures”项目目的是为青少年的深造和职业发展做准备。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Doyne cares for 93 children, addressing their immediate needs and supporting them for long-term growth and self-sufficiency.(Doyne照料93名孩子，既解决他们当下的迫切需求，也扶持他们实现长期成长与自给自足。)”以及第三段“Doyne and a team of 175 caregivers, teachers, and professionals work together to offer comprehensive services that address the roots of poverty.(Doyne和由175名护理人员、教师以及专业人员组成的团队协作，提供综合性服务，从根源上解决贫困问题。)”可知，Doyne的扶贫方式兼顾当下与长远，是系统且可持续的。 【七、浙江杭州第二中学2027届高三年级9月开学适应性检测英语试题】 When my husband Paul talked me into adopting a dog,I was filled with doubts. At 65, I thought we should be planning trips, not cleaning up dog hair. I never imagined I could grow fond of a dog, especially not the scruffy one with a torn ear from the shelter. I agreed only for Paul’s sake. Casey burst into our lives like a storm. Our morning walks turned into a daily struggle. Driven by his sharp sense of smell, he would tug me toward every scrap of leftover pizza or chicken nugget lying on the ground. At the mere sight of a squirrel, he would fly into a frenzy, leaping and howling, as I struggled desperately to hold him in check. I felt worn-out and defeated, repeatedly met with the mocking question, “Who’s really walking whom?” Hope arrived with Laurie, a young dog trainer. She explained that Casey was a hound — born to hunt. Laurie taught us not to yell, but to use a firm, confident tone to break his focus. I practiced calling out, “Casey!” with authority, something that did not come naturally to me. When he listened, he would get a treat along with a warm“Good boy”. It was a new language we were learning together. Slowly, the chaos began to abate. I grew familiar with his quirks, and he began responding to my voice. The constant pulling transformed into a gentle rhythm except for occasional bursts of excitement. The clink of his collar tags kept time with my footsteps. My frustration softened into understanding, and eventually, into affection. Our walks were no longer a clash but a teamwork. The greatest gift, however, was inner peace. I had always been a light, restless sleeper. One sleepless night, I found Casey sound asleep on the couch, breathing deeply and steadily. I rested my head against his warm chest, and for the first time, my worries melted away along with his calm, rhythmic breathing. This unexpected companion, once a source of anxiety, had quietly taught me how to find rest and acceptance. He was no longer just Paul’s dog; he had become the beating heart of our home. 24. How did the author initially feel about walking the dog? A. Panicked. B. Easy. C. Indifferent. D. Frustrated. 25. What led to Casey’s misbehavior on early walks? A. He had little familiarity with walking routes. B. He couldn’t resist his inborn urge to explore. C. He failed to focus in the absence of a trainer. D. He disliked the author’s way of handling him. 26. What does the underlined word “abate” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Cease. B. Unfold. C. Fade. D. Develop. 27. What was the greatest gift the author received from Casey? A. A positive mindset. B. A precious friendship. C. A sense of belonging. D. A cure for restlessness. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述作者起初不情愿收养小狗Casey，在相处中慢慢被治愈，收获内心安宁的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Casey burst into our lives like a storm. Our morning walks turned into a daily struggle. Driven by his sharp sense of smell, he would tug me toward every scrap of leftover pizza or chicken nugget lying on the ground. At the mere sight of a squirrel, he would fly into a frenzy, leaping and howling, as I struggled desperately to hold him in check. I felt worn-out and defeated, repeatedly met with the mocking question, “Who’s really walking whom?”(凯西像一场暴风雨闯入我们的生活。我们清晨的散步变成每日的挣扎。受他敏锐的嗅觉驱使，他会拽着我奔向地上每一块残留的披萨或者鸡块。仅仅看到松鼠，他就会陷入狂乱，蹦跳、嚎叫，而我拼命努力把他控制住。我感到疲惫不堪、备受挫败，不断听到那个戏谑的问题：“究竟是谁在遛谁？”)”可知，一开始遛狗的时候作者觉得很沮丧。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Hope arrived with Laurie, a young dog trainer. She explained that Casey was a hound — born to hunt.(转机来自年轻的训狗师劳里。她解释说凯西是一只猎犬——天生就为捕猎而生。)”可知，凯西是一只猎犬，散步时的不良行为源于无法抵抗与生俱来的探索捕猎本能。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Slowly, the chaos began to abate. I grew familiar with his quirks, and he began responding to my voice. The constant pulling transformed into a gentle rhythm except for occasional bursts of excitement.(慢慢地，混乱开始abate。我渐渐熟悉他的怪癖，他也开始听从我的声音。持续不断的拉扯变成舒缓的节奏，只是偶尔会突然兴奋。)”可知，之前遛狗一片混乱，之后情况好转，混乱逐渐消退，划线词与fade意思相近，表示“逐渐消退”。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The greatest gift, however, was inner peace. I had always been a light, restless sleeper. One sleepless night, I found Casey sound asleep on the couch, breathing deeply and steadily. I rested my head against his warm chest, and for the first time, my worries melted away along with his calm, rhythmic breathing.(然而，最珍贵的礼物，是内心的平静。我向来睡眠很浅，容易醒。一个无眠的夜晚，我看见凯西在沙发上酣然入睡，呼吸深沉而平稳。我把头靠在他温暖的胸膛上，伴着他从容、有节奏的呼吸，我的忧虑第一次消散了。)”可知，作者从凯西身上得到最好的礼物是治愈了焦躁不安的状态。 【八、浙江七彩阳光、浙南名校、精诚联盟、金兰教育2026-2027学年高三联考英语试题】 It was thirty years ago. In my family we were two children, one employed adult, and Christmas was coming. My parents were managing, but only just, and they had started preparing us for a simpler Christmas. So they told me, their 5-year-old daughter, well in advance that Santa Claus had received so many letters that winter that he had run out of presents. Santa is generous, they explained, but Santa is not bottomless. Everybody knew, of course, that Santa did not actually manufacture (大量生产) the gifts. He bought them, like anyone else. For a 5-year-old, this was a disaster. But children often have an unnerving ability to solve problems before the adults around them notice. I went to my room, found old toys, and wrapped them carefully. One for my mother, one for my father, one for each of my grandparents, and some for myself and my brother. By the morning, I had become, in my own mind, the hero of Christmas. There would be presents under the tree. There would be the best part of Christmas, the opening. I had solved the first money problem of my life and brought joy to my family. The ending was happier than I expected. Santa, it turned out, had found gifts for the young family after all. The old toys were quietly returned to my bedroom. And yet, that Christmas has stayed with me my whole life. It is a memory about adapting to something a child has a hard time understanding. It is also a memory about something common, the kind of relative shortage and insecurity that exists in many families. That memory, and the dozens that followed, quietly built a way of thinking I never noticed I had. I came to believe that whether we had plenty of money or just about enough, we would manage, and our problems would be temporary. 24. Why did the author’s parents mention Santa Claus in advance? A. To encourage her to share presents. B. To explain their financial difficulties. C. To teach her how Santa Claus worked. D. To lower her expectations for Christmas. 25. What happened that Christmas? A. The author was praised for her thoughtful idea. B. The author prepared gifts for her family in secret. C. Santa put the author’s toys back where they were. D. The author’s plan to solve the money problem failed. 26. Which of the following best describes the author as a kid? A. Curious and patient. B. Honest and sensitive. C. Creative and generous. D. Reliable and determined. 27. What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph? A. She prefers to depend on herself. B. She sees hardships as manageable. C. She finds it hard to adapt to changes. D. She underestimates the value of money. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述作者五岁时经历拮据圣诞节，自制礼物并从中获得人生感悟。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“My parents were managing, but only just, and they had started preparing us for a simpler Christmas.(我的父母勉强维持生计，他们已经开始让我们对一个简单的圣诞节做好心理准备。)”以及第二段中“So they told me, their 5‑year‑old daughter, well in advance that Santa Claus had received so many letters that winter that he had run out of presents.(于是他们提前告诉我这个五岁的女儿，那个冬天圣诞老人收到太多信件，礼物已经用完了。)”可知，父母提前借圣诞老人的说法降低孩子对圣诞节礼物的期待。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But children often have an unnerving ability to solve problems before the adults around them notice. I went to my room, found old toys, and wrapped them carefully. One for my mother, one for my father, one for each of my grandparents, and some for myself and my brother.(但孩子们常常拥有令人不安的能力，在周围成年人察觉之前就解决了问题。我走进房间，找出旧玩具，仔细包好。一份给妈妈，一份给爸爸，爷爷奶奶各一份，还有一些给我自己和弟弟。)”可知，作者秘密地为家人准备礼物。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“But children often have an unnerving ability to solve problems before the adults around them notice. I went to my room, found old toys, and wrapped them carefully.(但孩子们常常有一种惊人的能力，能在身边大人察觉之前解决问题。我走进房间，找出旧玩具，仔细包好。)”可知，小小年纪的作者想出用旧玩具充当礼物的办法，主动给家人准备礼物，体现出有创造力、大方的品质。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I came to believe that whether we had plenty of money or just about enough, we would manage, and our problems would be temporary.(我渐渐相信，无论我们钱多还是仅够糊口，我们总能应付过去，困难都是暂时的。)”可知，作者认为艰难的处境是可以应对的。 【九、浙江A9协作体2026-2027学年暑假返校学情诊断高三英语试题】 Once, in another life, I was an entrepreneur (创业家). It was the late nineties, when the website was young, and everyone was trying to join in the dot-com boom. In 1999, a company with high-speed Internet hired us to build a cooperative project for its customers. We were worried that we’d taken on work we couldn’t handle but also felt that we were on track to create something innovative. I liked this entrepreneurial experience — its ambition and its energy. Newly confident, we blew through deadlines and finished the project. Unlike other kids, who were what, socializing? I had a business card that said “Creative Director.” I thought I might move to San Francisco and work in a tech company. However, our client’s business was acquired (收购) by a firm. Our salary went unpaid. It was senior year — a fork in the road. We closed our business and moved out of the office. A few days before graduation, when I went to pay my tuition bill, I met a girl to whom I got married later. Under her influence, I became a journalist. I now have a life, a family, and a story. I’m me, not him — whoever he might have turned out to be. The literary scholar Andrew H. Miller writes, “One of the most significant facts about us may finally be that we all begin with the natural equipment to live a thousand kinds of life but end up having lived only one.” We all live in the here and now; we all have actual selves, actual lives. But what are they? Selves and lives have possibilities — that’s what’s unique about them. They are always changing, and so are we, always new. 24. How did the author feel about his early entrepreneurial life? A. Stressed and doubtful. B. Ambitious and hopeful. C. Excited but regretful. D. Confident but cautious. 25. What does the phrase “a fork in the road” in paragraph three mean? A. A small trouble in life. B. An event as expected. C. A significant turning point. D. A place for a short rest. 26. Why did the author become a journalist? A. The financial pressure he faced. B. His long passion for journalism. C. A life-changing chance encounter. D. His fading interest in technology. 27. What does the author intend to convey through Andrew Miller’s quote? A. We should regret the paths we did not take. B. Our identities are fixed from the beginning. C. It is meaningless for us to live a different life. D. Life lies in its many possibilities and changes. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述了作者回忆早年创业经历，因公司被收购创业失败，一次偶遇让他成为记者，感悟人生充满多种可能性，人始终在不断变化。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“I liked this entrepreneurial experience — its ambition and its energy. Newly confident, we blew through deadlines and finished the project. (我很喜欢这段创业经历 ——它满怀抱负，充满活力。我们信心大增，赶过各个截止日期，完成了这个项目。)”可知，作者对早期创业生活感到充满雄心且抱有希望。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据上文“I thought I might move to San Francisco and work in a tech company. However, our client’s business was acquired (收购) by a firm. Our salary went unpaid. (我原本以为自己会搬到旧金山，去一家科技公司工作。然而，我们客户的业务被另一家公司收购，我们的薪水也迟迟没有发放。)”和下文“We closed our business and moved out of the office. A few days before graduation, when I went to pay my tuition bill, I met a girl to whom I got married later. Under her influence, I became a journalist. (我们关掉了公司，搬出了办公室。毕业前几天，我去缴纳学费的时候，遇见了一个女孩，后来我和她结了婚。在她的影响下，我成了一名记者。)”可知，第三段提到客户公司被收购，工资未付，作者面临是否继续创业的关键选择，随后关闭公司、搬出办公室，并遇到未来妻子转而成为记者。由此可知，a fork in the road意为“重要转折点”。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“A few days before graduation, when I went to pay my tuition bill, I met a girl to whom I got married later. Under her influence, I became a journalist. (毕业前几天，我去缴纳学费的时候，遇见了一个女孩，后来我和她结了婚。在她的影响下，我成了一名记者。)”可知，作者在毕业前遇到一位女孩并与之结婚，受其影响成为记者，因此是一次改变人生的偶然相遇让作者成为记者。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Selves and lives have possibilities — that’s what’s unique about them. They are always changing, and so are we, always new. (自我与人生蕴藏着种种可能性 —— 这正是它们的独特之处。它们总在不断改变，我们亦是如此，永远焕然一新。)”可知，作者通过引文传达人生充满可能性且不断变化。 【十、浙江省浙南名校联盟2026-2027学年高三10月联考英语】 I'd like to think I'm a fairly modern guy. I use a smartwatch, order groceries online, and can even park using my car's sensors. So, when my 15-year-old daughter, Emma, declared my wardrobe a "disaster zone" and offered a "digital makeover," I foolishly agreed. It started with a simple app. Emma took photos of all my clothes, and the app promised the perfect daily outfit based on the weather, my calendar, and a color-matching algorithm (算法). I was impressed. For the first week, it was a game-changer. "Wear the blue shirt with the grey trousers," the app would command, and I'd stride into the office feeling like a fashion icon. Trouble began subtly. The app, perhaps influenced by Emma's own tastes, started suggesting items I'd forgotten—a pair of bright orange shorts I'd bought for a holiday ten years ago. When I ignored it, the app lowered my "style score," meaningless but frustrating. Then, the weather update failed, insisting snow in July and telling me to wear my heaviest coat. My colleagues thought I had lost my mind. I tried to override the app, but Emma had locked me out of "Expert Mode." Feeling defeated, I confessed to my wife. She laughed and reminded me of something I'd forgotten: I don't have a style score; I have a mirror. I don't have an algorithm for rain; I have a weather app on my phone. And most importantly, I don't need a digital Emma; I have a real one, and her opinion matters far more than any app's. So, I uninstalled the app. My wardrobe is back to its old, familiar chaos. And it feels just right. The only opinion that still counts is the one I hear from the hallway every morning: "Dad, you're wearing that?" 24. How did the author find the app's first-week suggestions? A. Confusing and risky. B. Helpful and exciting. C. Practical and creative. D. Complex and costly. 25. Why does the author mention the shorts and the coat in paragraph 3? A. To show the app's absurd advice. B. To prove the app learned his habits. C. To explain his need for style score. D. To suggest the app was hard to use. 26. How does the author's wife view the app? A. It needs improvement badly. B. It replaces human judgement. C. It makes unreliable predictions. D. It serves as a reference at best. 27. What message is conveyed in the text? A. Digital tools can ruin our daily style. B. Teenagers know more about technology. C. Real-life connections beat digital advice. D. Wardrobes should not be managed by apps. 【答案】24.B 25. A 26.D 27.C 【解析】 【导语】主题语境：人与自我——生活与学习（科技与生活）。本文是一篇幽默记叙文。文章讲述了作者被 15 岁女儿说服使用 AI 穿搭 App，从初期的惊艳到后期的混乱，最终在妻子的提醒下回归常识与真实人际关系的故事，揭示了"真实人际连接胜过数字建议"的道理。 【24题详解】 细节理解题 根据第二段中"For the first week, it was a game-changer... I'd stride into the office feeling like a fashion icon."（第一周，它改变了我的生活……我会昂首阔步走进办公室，感觉自己像个时尚偶像。）可知，作者对 App 第一周的建议感到非常满意和兴奋。"game-changer"和"feeling like a fashion icon"均传达了强烈的积极情绪。故选 B。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中"started suggesting items I'd forgotten — a pair of bright orange shorts I'd bought for a holiday ten years ago"以及"the weather update failed, insisting snow in July and telling me to wear my heaviest coat. My colleagues thought I had lost my mind."可知，作者列举这两个例子是为了展示 App 建议内容的荒谬性，故选 A。D 项干扰性较大，"hard to use"对应的是原文"tried to override the app, but Emma had locked me out of 'Expert Mode'"，属于操作层面的问题；而 shorts 和 coat 展示的是内容层面的错误。D 项将"内容荒谬"偷换为"操作困难"。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。文中妻子列举镜子、天气应用和真实 Emma，是为了说明 App 只能作为辅助参考，不能替代真实的人和现实判断，故选 D。A 项"needs improvement badly"对应的是对 App 功能不足的负面评价；B 项"It replaces human judgement"意为"它取代人类判断"，与原文态度正好相反，属于反向干扰；C 选项"It makes unreliable predictions"意为"它做出不可靠的预测"，妻子只是说手机上有个天气应用就够用了，并没有评价 App 预测是否可靠。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中 So, I uninstalled the app. My wardrobe is back to its old, familiar chaos... The only opinion that still counts is the one I hear from the hallway every morning: "Dad, you're wearing that?"（于是，我卸载了 App。我的衣柜恢复了原来熟悉的混乱……唯一重要的意见是每天早晨从走廊传来的那句：爸，你就穿这个？）以及第四段妻子点醒他的内容可知，作者最终认识到真实的人际连接（妻子和女儿的意见）胜过数字建议。故选 C。D 选项比 A、B 更接近主旨，但将主旨窄化为"衣橱管理"这一具体场景，未能抽象到"真实连接 vs. 数字建议"这一普遍寓意。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 专题02 B篇阅读理解 目录： 1. 2027届浙江省名校新高考研究联盟高三第一次学情诊断英语试题 2. 浙江宁波市北仑中学2026-2027学年高三上学期返校考英语试题 3. 浙江G12名校协作体2026-2027学年高三上学期返校英语测试试题 4. 2027届浙江省强基联盟高三上学期8月返校考英语试题 5. 浙江宁波市镇海中学2026-2027学年高三上学期开学考英语试题 6. 浙江省杭州市学军中学2026-2027学年高三上学期英语试题 7. 浙江杭州第二中学2027届高三年级9月开学适应性检测英语试题 8. 浙江七彩阳光、浙南名校、精诚联盟、金兰教育2026-2027学年高三联考英语试题 9. 浙江A9协作体2026-2027学年暑假返校学情诊断高三英语试题 10. 浙江省浙南名校联盟2026-2027学年高三10月联考英语 限时练习：_________分钟 完成时间： 月 日 【一、2027届浙江省名校新高考研究联盟高三第一次学情诊断英语试题 】 Few names in the history of magic bring more wonder and fascination than Harry Houdini, a legendary escape artist who turned impossible tasks into breathtaking live shows. Born in Budapest, Hungary, on March 24, 1874, he moved to the United States with his family at the age of four. He grew up in a common family in Wisconsin and lived a simple life in his childhood. He deeply admired a French magician named Jean Eugene Robert-Houdin, so he created his stage name after him, which later became a symbol for daring and spectacular escapes. Yet Houdini’s early career was far from successful. For years, he struggled to make a living by performing card tricks and small illusions at carnivals and street shows. His life changed completely when he discovered his extraordinary talent for breaking free from tight controls. His simple handcuff (手铐) escapes gradually evolved into daring tricks that attracted audiences worldwide. He freed himself from locked milk cans filled with water, got out of the dangerous Water Torture Cell while hanging upside down, and even survived after being buried six feet underground. These heart-stopping performances earned him the nickname “The Handcuff King” and made him one of the highest-paid entertainers of his time. Beyond his stage career, Houdini committed himself to exposing dishonest mediums and spiritualists who preyed on heart-broken families by pretending to communicate with their dead relatives. Believing that truth should never be sacrificed for profit, Houdini felt a strong responsibility to protect ordinary people from being cheated. Drawing on his comprehensive knowledge of magic skills, he clearly revealed how these cheaters created false illusions to fool common people. This meaningful act won him great praise, but also invited hatred and criticism from those he exposed. Unfortunately, Houdini’s remarkable life came to a sudden end in 1926, when he was only 52 years old. Up to now, almost a century has passed, but his innovative spirit, wonderful performing skills and persistent pursuit of truth continue to encourage modern performers and those who stick to facts, securing his legacy as the greatest escape artist in history. 24．What can we learn about Harry Houdini from paragraph 1? A．He was born into a well-off family. B．He moved to the USA in his teens. C．He was the best magician in history. D．He took his stage name in honor of his idol. 25．Why does the author describe Houdini’s escape acts? A．To illustrate his path to success. B．To compare different magic styles. C．To show how dangerous they are. D．To uncover the secrets behind them. 26．What drove Houdini to reveal dishonest spiritualists? A．His plan to get back at his critics. B．His desire for more recognition. C．His eagerness to prove his magic skills. D．His sense of justice and responsibility. 27．Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A．The Rise of a Magic Legend B．A Magician’s Amazing Live Shows C．Houdini: More Than a Great Escape Artist D．Houdini: Champion Against Fake Spiritualists 【二、浙江宁波市北仑中学2026-2027学年高三上学期返校考英语试题】 Who will take care of grandma and grandpa when no one is available? This question is becoming urgent as the population is aging rapidly and fewer children are being born. For many families, the answer might soon be a robot. This might sound like science fiction, but the reasons are practical, mainly financial. Hiring someone to help with aging loved ones is prohibitively expensive — upwards of $75,000 a year for a home health aide and well over $100,000 for a nursing home. In comparison, one estimate places the cost of a humanoid robot at just $20,000. Given this affordability, I believe that robots will assume the care of many elderly people. A robot could potentially be a one-time expense, requiring minimal maintenance and receiving updates through cloud computing technology. And it could function around the clock. I’ve treated elderly patients who had been found wandering the streets or severely dehydrated (脱水的) because of gaps in care. A tireless robot — made possible by improved battery life and the ability to self-charge — could mitigate such problems. Reliable robotic companions could also accompany seniors outside the home for walks or to community events, enhancing rather than weakening their social connections. Furthermore, while actual human contact is preferable, it has real drawbacks. Human caregivers can lose their tempers, but robots are unlikely to have that problem. In a recent study, observers found AI-generated responses to be more empathetic and compassionate (有同情心的) than those of humans — a surprising but telling result. A robot with AI-assisted voice technology could potentially understand emotion and intent, clarify instructions, and respond to commands in real time. But where does that leave us? If I know that grandma has her robot, will I opt not to drop by after work when I’m exhausted? Will the neighbors stop checking on her? As her faculties (机能) fail, will she feel more at ease with the robot than with her family? 24. What is a robot’s main practical advantage in elder care? A. Its lower long-term cost. B. Its guarantee of total safety. C. Its ability to show friendship. D. Its simple setup and operation. 25. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ease. B. Cause. C. Ignore. D. Discover. 26. What does the author imply by citing the AI study in paragraph 4? A. The urgent need to replace human care. B. The potential of AI in showing empathy. C. The general weakness of human caregivers. D. The importance of human emotional interaction. 27. How does the author sound in the last paragraph? A. Angry and intolerant. B. Reflective and concerned. C. Indifferent and dismissive. D. Sympathetic and confused. 【三、浙江G12名校协作体2026-2027学年高三上学期返校英语测试试题】 A few years ago, our administrative team sent home what we thought was a clear English message regarding a schedule change about an upcoming assessment. The next week, a visibly frustrated mother stopped me in the hallway. She said, in Spanish, that she hadn’t known anything about the schedule change. Her child was embarrassed and anxious, because they felt unprepared for the assessment. From the school’s point of view, we had “communicated.” From the family’s point of view, we hadn’t. About 40 percent of the students at our middle school are Hispanic, and many speak Spanish or another language at home. Each year, we welcome dozens of newcomers, including students with interrupted formal education. The math is simple: Communication needs far outpace available bilingual teachers. Our first move was to stop rewriting the same messages from scratch. We created a shared cloud folder with message banks for our most common situations. Each pattern follows a simple, translation-friendly structure. We drafted everything in plain English first, avoiding idioms and long sentences. Then, with help from our bilingual staff, we created Spanish versions of the most-used patterns. We also realized that not every message needs to be a long email. Listening to a 60-to-90-second message — even with imperfect translation — is often easier for busy families. These messages are scripted from our banks, so they stay concise. Families have told us that hearing a familiar voice, even if they rely on the captions (字幕), helps them feel more connected and less intimidated. Memories might fail us when we try to track the families we’ve contacted. So we’ve created a shared contact log. It is now a complement to our student information system — it gives us a quick, human-centered view of communication patterns. When communication becomes more consistent and accessible, families feel like true partners. And when families can actually hear us — and we can truly hear them — everything else we’re trying to improve at school becomes a little bit easier. 24. Why did the mother feel upset? A. Because her son struggled to fit in. B. Because the message didn’t get across. C. Because her son failed the assessment. D. Because she forgot the schedule change. 25. What can we infer from paragraph 3? A. Bilingual teachers are in short supply. B. Communication class is not available. C. Students must learn a second language. D. Math in middle school is easy to learn. 26. Which of the following could be an appropriate school message? A. “Pass the test with flying colors.” B. “Test time is changed to this Friday.” C. “Hit the books for the upcoming test.” D. “Not until Friday will the test begin.” 27. Which of the following best describes the school’s practice? A. Complex. B. Inclusive. C. Ambitious. D. Conventional. 【四、2027届浙江省强基联盟高三上学期8月返校考英语试题】 About 10 years ago, I invited my dad to stay at my fancy flat. I proudly showed him the advanced audio system, the multi-level lighting, and the television operated by a single touchscreen remote. Having encouraged him to relax, I headed to work. Returning that night, however, I found the place in darkness. Switching on the light, I saw him sitting alone, an error message flashing across the TV screen. “I tried,” he said, looking frustrated, “but got nowhere with anything, so I just gave up.” At that time, I was somehow annoyed with him, but to be honest, 10 years on I am still struggling with the stupid lights, TV and sound system myself. My parents’ difficulties are becoming my own, and I am angry at everyone involved in the design of anything. In the interest of greater functionality, everything is being over engineered to the point — for many people — of non-functionality. It’s not just household appliances. Smartphones made the screen highly touch-sensitive: a light press does one thing, a hard press another. For older people, a hard stab often brings up unexpected menus, deepening their desperation. Does the “smart” in smartphone refer to the brilliance required of its users? And symbols for words are a problem everywhere. To access a start menu, you no longer click “Start”; you click on a symbol of a window. To forward an email, you click on three vertical dots. Why? Yes, we are always going to be somewhat confused by the world as old age comes around. But these endless, daily tests and trials set by the march of technology are real breakers of spirit and hidden barriers shutting them out. The biggest tragedy is that technology could be more helpful for older people if only they were able to use it easily. Honestly, those who design this stuff are plainly doing so for people close in age to themselves. However, it might be well worth remembering that, one day, their time will come. 24. What made the father feel frustrated? A. Watching terrible news on TV. B. Sitting alone at the fancy flat. C. Failing to operate smart devices. D. Breaking the touchscreen remote. 25. Why does the author mention the examples in paragraph 3? A. To complain devices require extreme brilliance. B. To explain symbols cause operational confusion. C. To show touch-sensitive screens spoil older users. D. To prove over engineering weakens basic usability. 26. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Smart devices will be targeted at the elderly. B. Future technologies will leave seniors behind. C. Designers should consider the needs of seniors. D. Youngsters should teach older users practical skills. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Less Tests, Brighter Future B. More Functions, Greater Ease C. Older Users, Better Designers D. Smarter Devices, Tougher Lives 【五、浙江宁波市镇海中学2026-2027学年高三上学期开学考英语试题】 A book fair is an event where different types of books are displayed and sold. I, a curious boy, visited the Ekushey Boi Mela this year. It is one of the biggest book fairs in Bangladesh, usually held in February. On the very first day, I walked over to visit the exhibition immediately after school. I entered the fair and began to move from one stall (摊位) to another with great interest. There were many people at the exhibition. Most were school children like me. I saw all sorts of books such as fiction, textbooks, dramas, children’s books, and reference books. One good thing about exhibitions is that they usually offer free gifts. This exhibition was no different. Men, women, and children of all ages and backgrounds gathered there. At a counter near the entrance, I registered to be a member of the book shop and I received a small calculator as a gift. Inside the main hall, I was amazed by the number of books on display.

Other items on display included encyclopedias, maps, novels, magazines, and even greeting cards. In addition, there was a huge collection of dictionaries. Also available were computer software, CDs, and other digital media. Next, I moved on to less crowded areas and looked at the books.

What started with a plot of land that she purchased with her babysitting money has become a global model for poverty relief and development through her nonprofit, BlinkNow Foundation. After high school, Doyne began her work after meeting a young girl in Surkhet, Nepal, whose life was ruined during the country’s decades-long civil conflict. Today, Doyne cares for 93 children, addressing their immediate needs and supporting them for long-term growth and self-sufficiency.

Her Kopila Valley School, once a small “bamboo shack (棚屋)”, has now served 1,000 students with state-of-the-art facilities, modern technology, and diverse course offerings. Students participate in gardening, farming, and conservation classes and are provided healthy meals to address poor nutrition.

At a speaking engagement in Los Angeles, Doyne connected with a filmmaker who shared a passion for humanitarian causes and storytelling. He started documenting Doyne’s work and life story. And the two began a journey together, professionally and personally. Now married, they raise their children in Nepal among their 93 siblings (兄弟姊妹).

At 65, I thought we should be planning trips, not cleaning up dog hair. I never imagined I could grow fond of a dog, especially not the scruffy one with a torn ear from the shelter. I agreed only for Paul’s sake. Casey burst into our lives like a storm. Our morning walks turned into a daily struggle. Driven by his sharp sense of smell, he would tug me toward every scrap of leftover pizza or chicken nugget lying on the ground. At the mere sight of a squirrel, he would fly into a frenzy, leaping and howling, as I struggled desperately to hold him in check. I felt worn-out and defeated, repeatedly met with the mocking question, “Who’s really walking whom?” Hope arrived with Laurie, a young dog trainer. She explained that Casey was a hound — born to hunt. Laurie taught us not to yell, but to use a firm, confident tone to break his focus. I practiced calling out, “Casey!” with authority, something that did not come naturally to me. When he listened, he would get a treat along with a warm“Good boy”. It was a new language we were learning together. Slowly, the chaos began to abate. I grew familiar with his quirks, and he began responding to my voice. The constant pulling transformed into a gentle rhythm except for occasional bursts of excitement. The clink of his collar tags kept time with my footsteps. My frustration softened into understanding, and eventually, into affection. Our walks were no longer a clash but a teamwork. The greatest gift, however, was inner peace. I had always been a light, restless sleeper. One sleepless night, I found Casey sound asleep on the couch, breathing deeply and steadily. I rested my head against his warm chest, and for the first time, my worries melted away along with his calm, rhythmic breathing.

My parents were managing, but only just, and they had started preparing us for a simpler Christmas. So they told me, their 5-year-old daughter, well in advance that Santa Claus had received so many letters that winter that he had run out of presents. Santa is generous, they explained, but Santa is not bottomless. Everybody knew, of course, that Santa did not actually manufacture (大量生产) the gifts. He bought them, like anyone else. For a 5-year-old, this was a disaster. But children often have an unnerving ability to solve problems before the adults around them notice. I went to my room, found old toys, and wrapped them carefully. One for my mother, one for my father, one for each of my grandparents, and some for myself and my brother. By the morning, I had become, in my own mind, the hero of Christmas. There would be presents under the tree. There would be the best part of Christmas, the opening. I had solved the first money problem of my life and brought joy to my family. The ending was happier than I expected. Santa, it turned out, had found gifts for the young family after all. The old toys were quietly returned to my bedroom. And yet, that Christmas has stayed with me my whole life. It is a memory about adapting to something a child has a hard time understanding. It is also a memory about something common, the kind of relative shortage and insecurity that exists in many families. That memory, and the dozens that followed, quietly built a way of thinking I never noticed I had. I came to believe that whether we had plenty of money or just about enough, we would manage, and our problems would be temporary. 24. Why did the author’s parents mention Santa Claus in advance? A. To encourage her to share presents. B. To explain their financial difficulties. C. To teach her how Santa Claus worked. D. To lower her expectations for Christmas. 25. What happened that Christmas?

The author’s plan to solve the money problem failed. 26. Which of the following best describes the author as a kid? A. Curious and patient. B. Honest and sensitive. C. Creative and generous. D. Reliable and determined. 27. What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph? A. She prefers to depend on herself. B. She sees hardships as manageable. C. She finds it hard to adapt to changes. D. She underestimates the value of money. 【九、浙江A9协作体2026-2027学年暑假返校学情诊断高三英语试题】 Once, in another life, I was an entrepreneur (创业家). It was the late nineties, when the website was young, and everyone was trying to join in the dot-com boom. In 1999, a company with high-speed Internet hired us to build a cooperative project for its customers. We were worried that we’d taken on work we couldn’t handle but also felt that we were on track to create something innovative. I liked this entrepreneurial experience — its ambition and its energy. Newly confident, we blew through deadlines and finished the project. Unlike other kids, who were what, socializing? I had a business card that said “Creative Director.” I thought I might move to San Francisco and work in a tech company. However, our client’s business was acquired (收购) by a firm. Our salary went unpaid. It was senior year — a fork in the road. We closed our business and moved out of the office. A few days before graduation, when I went to pay my tuition bill, I met a girl to whom I got married later. Under her influence, I became a journalist. I now have a life, a family, and a story. I’m me, not him — whoever he might have turned out to be. The literary scholar Andrew H. Miller writes, “One of the most significant facts about us may finally be that we all begin with the natural equipment to live a thousand kinds of life but end up having lived only one.” We all live in the here and now; we all have actual selves, actual lives. But what are they? Selves and lives have possibilities — that’s what’s unique about them. They are always changing, and so are we, always new. 24. How did the author feel about his early entrepreneurial life? A. Stressed and doubtful. B. Ambitious and hopeful. C. Excited but regretful. D. Confident but cautious. 25.

What does the author intend to convey through Andrew Miller’s quote? A. We should regret the paths we did not take. B. Our identities are fixed from the beginning. C. It is meaningless for us to live a different life. D. Life lies in its many possibilities and changes. 【十、浙江省浙南名校联盟2026-2027学年高三10月联考英语】 I'd like to think I'm a fairly modern guy. I use a smartwatch, order groceries online, and can even park using my car's sensors. So, when my 15-year-old daughter, Emma, declared my wardrobe a "disaster zone" and offered a "digital makeover," I foolishly agreed. It started with a simple app. Emma took photos of all my clothes, and the app promised the perfect daily outfit based on the weather, my calendar, and a color-matching algorithm (算法). I was impressed. For the first week, it was a game-changer. "Wear the blue shirt with the grey trousers," the app would command, and I'd stride into the office feeling like a fashion icon. Trouble began subtly. The app, perhaps influenced by Emma's own tastes, started suggesting items I'd forgotten—a pair of bright orange shorts I'd bought for a holiday ten years ago. When I ignored it, the app lowered my "style score," meaningless but frustrating. Then, the weather update failed, insisting snow in July and telling me to wear my heaviest coat. My colleagues thought I had lost my mind. I tried to override the app, but Emma had locked me out of "Expert Mode." Feeling defeated, I confessed to my wife. She laughed and reminded me of something I'd forgotten: I don't have a style score; I have a mirror. I don't have an algorithm for rain; I have a weather app on my phone. And most importantly, I don't need a digital Emma; I have a real one, and her opinion matters far more than any app's. So, I uninstalled the app. My wardrobe is back to its old, familiar chaos. And it feels just right. The only opinion that still counts is the one I hear from the hallway every morning: "Dad, you're wearing that?" 24. How did the author find the app's first-week suggestions? A. Confusing and risky. B. Helpful and exciting. C. Practical and creative. D. Complex and costly. 25. Why does the author mention the shorts and the coat in paragraph 3? A. To show the app's absurd advice. B. To prove the app learned his habits. C. To explain his need for style score. D. To suggest the app was hard to use. 26. How does the author's wife view the app? A. It needs improvement badly. B. It replaces human judgement. C. It makes unreliable predictions. D. It serves as a reference at best. 27. What message is conveyed in the text? A. Digital tools can ruin our daily style. B. Teenagers know more about technology. C. Real-life connections beat digital advice. D. Wardrobes should not be managed by apps. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
