Traditional ways of monitoring wildlife, which mainly depend on manual patrols (巡逻), often face problems like terrible environment, long distances and low efficiency, making it hard to protect rare animals in time and completely. A “sky-earth-space” monitoring system has emerged to solve these problems. It has three main parts and can track wild animal groups all-round and in real time. Its structure can be shown clearly by a simple diagram, which displays how the three monitoring layers connect and work together: Structure Diagram of “Sky-Earth-Space” Monitoring System The diagram takes the central database as the core. The three monitoring layers (aerial, terrestrial, space-based) are connected to it. Each layer collects data on its own and sends it to the database for analysis, forming a complete monitoring cycle. Monitoring Layer Core Equipment Main Function Aerial UAVs with thermal (热的) cameras Cover large wild areas fast; detect activities in darkness Terrestrial Infrared (红外的) cameras Monitor water sources/ corridors 24/7; record natural behaviors without disturbance Space-based Satellite navigation & positioning collars Track long-distance migration of large mammals In practice, the aerial layer uses UAVs to scan large areas, while the ground layer sets infrared cameras at key spots. The space layer helps track long-distance migration. All data go to the central database. This tech system greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of biodiversity protection. It reduces the need for manual work, thus reducing human influence on wildlife and helping endangered species recover better. 1. What is a disadvantage of traditional wildlife monitoring methods? A. They are too human-dependent. B. They fail to cover long distances. C. They can’t save endangered species. D. They require complex technical operation. 2. What is the main function of the aerial monitoring layer? A. To track long-distance animal migration. B. To quickly scan and detect large wild areas. C. To build and update the central database. D. To record animals’ natural behaviors non-stop. 3. What can we learn about the “sky-earth-space” monitoring system? A. It primarily needs manual data collection. B. It totally removes human influence on wildlife. C. It has fully replaced traditional protection ways. D. It highly contributes to biodiversity preservation. 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了传统野生动物监测方法的劣势，介绍了“天空—地面—太空”监测系统的结构、各监测层的核心设备及主要功能，以及该系统对生物多样性保护的积极作用。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Traditional ways of monitoring wildlife, which mainly depend on manual patrols (巡逻), often face problems like terrible environment, long distances and low efficiency, making it hard to protect rare animals in time and completely. (传统的野生动物监测方式主要依靠人工巡逻，往往面临环境恶劣、距离远、效率低等问题，难以及时、全面地保护珍稀动物。)”可知，传统野生动物监测方法主要依靠人工巡逻，也就是过于依赖人力。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中“Aerial”一行“UAVs with thermal (热的) cameras”以及“Cover large wild areas fast; detect activities in darkness (配备热成像相机的无人机；快速覆盖大片野外区域；在黑暗中探测活动)”可知，空中监测层的主要功能是快速扫描和探测大片野外区域。故选B项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This tech system greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of biodiversity protection. It reduces the need for manual work, thus reducing human influence on wildlife and helping endangered species recover better. (这个科技系统大大提高了生物多样性保护的效率和准确性。它减少了对人工劳动的需求，从而减少了对野生动物的人为影响，帮助濒危物种更好地恢复。)”可知，“天空—地面—太空”监测系统对生物多样性保护有很大贡献。故选D项。 B Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson arrived in New York five years ago with a passion for visual storytelling. To his surprise, the city’s libraries and museums held more photographs documenting Africa’s past and present than he had ever seen in Ghana. “How could our history be better kept here than at home?” he wondered. This realization became the start of his life’s work: to build a library in Ghana where Africans could reclaim their stories through photography. Growing up, Ninson loved family stories told by his grandparents, but photography was seen as an unwise career choice in Ghana. However, he sold his iPhone to buy a camera and taught himself the skill. His early projects, like recording a Kenyan community started by women escaping violence, strengthened his belief that Africans must own their visual history. In 2019, Ninson joined a photography school in New York. There, he eagerly read hundreds of photobooks — a clear difference from Ghana, where such books were rare. When museums refused to share their records, Ninson promised to build his own library. He searched secondhand stores, asked publishers for help, and filled storage units with over 30,000 books, even using up all his credit card limits. His friend Brandon Stanton’s $1.2 million online fundraiser made the dream possible. With the funds, Ninson shipped the books to Ghana and established the library. On a December morning in 2022, the Dikan Center — “take the lead” in Ghana’s Akan language — opened in Accra, near the Gulf of Guinea’s historic coast. The library’s two collections celebrate African views: one focuses on Africa and Africans living abroad, the other displays works by photographers worldwide. Among its treasures is Ninson’s first New York purchase: The Gold Coast Yesterday and Today, a 1940s photobook documenting Ghana’s history before it gained independence in 1957. “It reminds us where we’ve been and where we’re going,” he says. 4. What inspired Ninson to create African’s own visual history? A. Finding photobooks in secondhand stores. B. Studying at a New York photography school. C. Developing his family storytelling traditions. D. Finding more African records overseas than locally. 5. Why is The Gold Coast Yesterday and Today important? A. It contains stories from his grandparents. B. It was donated by a photography school. C. It shows Ghana’s history under foreign rule. D. It was Ninson’s first photobook purchase in New York. 6. What best describes Paul Ninson’s character as highlighted in the text? A. Ambitious and humorous. B. Creative and sympathetic. C. Conventional and home-centered. D. Committed and forward-thinking. 7. What does Ninson’s story mainly inspire us to do? A. Value teamwork in cultural projects. B. Use technology to document history. C. Pursue cultural goals through determined action. D. Rely on external institutions for heritage protection. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了加纳摄影记者保罗·尼森为了重拾非洲的视觉历史，在纽约收集了大量摄影书籍，并最终在加纳建立了迪坎中心图书馆的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段后三句“To his surprise, the city’s libraries and museums held more photographs documenting Africa’s past and present than he had ever seen in Ghana. “How could our history be better kept here than at home?” he wondered. This realization became the start of his life’s work: to build a library in Ghana where Africans could reclaim their stories through photography. (令他惊讶的是，这座城市的图书馆和博物馆收藏了比他在加纳见过的更多的记录非洲过去和现在的照片。“为什么我们的历史在这里比在家里保存得更好?”他想知道。这一认识成为了他毕生工作的起点：在加纳建立一个图书馆，让非洲人可以通过摄影重拾他们的故事。)”可知，是尼森发现海外比本地有更多的非洲记录，这激发了他创造非洲人自己的视觉历史的灵感。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段后两句“Among its treasures is Ninson’s first New York purchase: The Gold Coast Yesterday and Today, a 1940s photobook documenting Ghana’s history before it gained independence in 1957. “It reminds us where we’ve been and where we’re going,” he says. (在它的珍宝中，有尼森在纽约的第一件藏品:《黄金海岸的昨天和今天》，这是一本20世纪40年代的摄影集，记录了加纳在1957年独立之前的历史。“它提醒我们，我们来自哪里，要去哪里，”他说。）”可知，《黄金海岸的昨天和今天》重要是因为它展示了加纳在外国统治下的历史。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段后四句“When museums refused to share their records, Ninson promised to build his own library. He searched secondhand stores, asked publishers for help, and filled storage units with over 30,000 books, even using up all his credit card limits. His friend Brandon Stanton’s $1.2 million online fundraiser made the dream possible. With the funds, Ninson shipped the books to Ghana and established the library. (当博物馆拒绝分享他们的记录时，尼森承诺要建立自己的图书馆。他搜遍了二手商店，向出版商寻求帮助，并在仓库里塞满了3万多本书，甚至用完了所有的信用卡额度。他的朋友布兰登·斯坦顿在网上筹集了120万美元，使这个梦想成为可能。有了这笔资金，尼森把这些书运到了加纳，并建立了图书馆。)”可知，尼森承诺建立自己的图书馆，并且努力实现，说明他是一个有决心的人；根据最后一段前两句“On a December morning in 2022, the Dikan Center — “take the lead” in Ghana’s Akan language — opened in Accra, near the Gulf of Guinea’s historic coast. The library’s two collections celebrate African views: one focuses on Africa and Africans living abroad, the other displays works by photographers worldwide. (2022年12月的一个早晨，迪坎中心——在加纳的阿肯语中意为“领先”——在几内亚湾历史悠久的海岸附近的阿克拉开业。图书馆的两个馆藏展示了非洲的观点:一个关注非洲和生活在国外的非洲人，另一个展示世界各地摄影师的作品。)”可知，尼森不仅关注非洲，还关注生活在国外的非洲人，并展示世界各地摄影师的作品，说明他是一个有远见的人。由此可推知，保罗·尼森的性格可以用“有决心和有远见”来形容。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了加纳摄影记者保罗·尼森从意识到非洲的历史在国外保存得更好，到决定建立图书馆让非洲人通过摄影找回他们的故事，并且通过自己的努力，包括学习、寻找书籍、筹集资金等行动来实现这个目标。因此，他的故事主要激励我们通过坚定的行动来追求文化目标。故选C项。 C It’s not unusual for snow to fall in winter. During the cold weather months, some folks like to share recipes for how to make snow ice cream and other treats that use fresh powder as a base, adding milk, sugar, and toppings. Obviously, no one is recommending anyone scoop up a bowlful of snow idling on the side of the road, full of salt, muck (淤泥), and other unpleasantness. But it does beg the question: Is any snow actually safe to consume? While you may assume snow that’s freshly fallen and collected in an undisturbed area — even a cup set out for that purpose — is free of any contaminants (污染物), don’t be so sure. According to meteorologist Mary Scarzello Fairbanks, snow isn’t all that clean. It’s formed when water droplets freeze around some dust or debris in the air, forming an ice crystal that continues to collect water vapor and form a snowflake. When it falls, it will also collect things hanging in the air, including dirt and even bacterial particles. Depending on the region, snow could also contain mercury (水银) or pesticides. If it’s windy, snow could even mix with dirt kicked up from the soil before settling. A 2015 study published in the journal Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts even demonstrated how snow could mix with gas exhaust. This all means that, theoretically, your snow ice cream could have some pretty disgusting “toppings”. At the same time, there doesn’t seem to be a surge of reports of illnesses related to snow consumption. Assuming you don’t consume a huge quantity of it, it’s unlikely that whatever contaminants might be in the snow will be present in large enough amounts to cause problems. While no one is technically advocating for snow ingestion here, just a small bite will probably be fine. Eating snow in an emergency is another matter. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns against snow snacking for people like hikers, because it can lower one’s body temperature. In cases where there is a water supply issue, the CDC says it’s safe to take collected snow and boil it to kill off any bacteria. 8. What is the correct order of snow formation? ① Ice crystals are formed. ② Water and vapor are collected. ③ A snowflake comes into being. ④ Water droplets freeze in the air. A. ②④①③ B. ④①②③ C. ②①④③ D. ④①③② 9. What is the function of paragraph 4? A. To introduce a new concept. B. To offer a detailed explanation. C. To pave the way for what follows. D. To back up a previous statement. 10. What can we infer from the text? A. Under no circumstances does the CDC advise eating snow. B. Boiling snow can eliminate all risks associated with eating it. C. Eating snow after it is boiled can lower one’s body temperature. D. Consuming a small quantity of snow is unlikely to cause severe diseases. 11. Which is the best title for the passage? A. The Hidden Dangers of Snow Ice Cream B. How to Safely Consume Snow in Emergencies C. Is Snow Safe to Eat? What You Need to Know D. From Cloud to Table: The Journey of a Snowflake 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍雪的形成过程、雪含有的污染物，以及食用雪是否安全的相关科学知识与注意事项。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It’s formed when water droplets freeze around some dust or debris in the air, forming an ice crystal that continues to collect water vapor and form a snowflake.(它是由水滴在空气中的尘埃或碎屑周围冻结形成冰晶，冰晶不断聚集水蒸气进而形成雪花。)”可知，正确顺序为水滴在空气中冻结→形成冰晶→聚集水蒸气→形成雪花，即④①②③。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“According to meteorologist Mary Scarzello Fairbanks, snow isn’t all that clean.(根据气象学家玛丽·斯卡泽洛·费尔班克斯的说法，雪并不是那么干净。)”以及第四段中的“When it falls, it will also collect things hanging in the air, including dirt and even bacterial particles. Depending on the region, snow could also contain mercury (水银) or pesticides. If it’s windy, snow could even mix with dirt kicked up from the soil before settling. A 2015 study published in the journal Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts even demonstrated how snow could mix with gas exhaust. (雪花飘落时，也会吸附空气中漂浮的物质，包括灰尘甚至细菌颗粒。根据地区不同，雪还可能含有水银或杀虫剂。如果刮风，雪在落地前甚至会混入从地面扬起的泥土。2015年发表在《环境科学：过程与影响》期刊上的一项研究甚至证明了雪会如何与汽车尾气混合。)”可知，第四段通过列举雪含有的各类污染物，详细支撑了第三段提出的“雪并不干净”这一观点。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Assuming you don’t consume a huge quantity of it, it’s unlikely that whatever contaminants might be in the snow will be present in large enough amounts to cause problems.(只要不大量食用，雪中的污染物含量不大可能达到致病水平。)”可知，少量食用雪不太可能引发严重疾病。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“But it does beg the question: Is any snow actually safe to consume?(但这确实引出一个问题：到底有没有雪是可以安全食用的？)”可知，文章全文围绕食用雪是否安全展开介绍与分析，因此“雪能安全吃吗？你需要知道的事”最适合作为文章标题。故选C项。 D At the foot of Yinhu Mountain in Shenzhen, the Yulong landfill — once the city’s largest waste site — is busy in the early morning. After two decades undisturbed, the Yulong landfill’s 2.55 million cubic meters of waste — a volume large enough to fill 1,000 swimming pools — is now undergoing the nation’s largest excavation (挖掘) and relocation project, with dozens of excavators operating all out. Located near the city center, the landfill long polluted the nearby neighborhoods with terrible smells and dirty groundwater. Meanwhile, the increasing shortage of land resources has forced the city to fundamentally explore new approaches to tackling this waste pile problem. Now, at the site, trucks transport different categories of waste to sorting centers. After sorting, burnable materials of the household waste are transported to the energy ecological park for incineration (焚烧), thus turning waste into resources. In the incineration workshop, waste gas is kept above 850°C for at least two seconds to completely break down dioxins, a harmful byproduct. After many steps of purification, the gas released meets higher standards than those of the EU. The project can deal with 330,000 tons of burnable waste and produce 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity yearly, enough for 26,000 families. Pan Gong, an expert in solid waste research, said China’s waste-to-energy technology is world-leading. Chinese companies now lead the world in technology, cost control, and operational experience. Most equipment and components have been domestically produced, achieving independent control over the entire industry chain from waste collection and incineration to gas treatment. China is also sharing its experiences and technologies with the world. Speaking at the launch ceremony of a Chinese-funded waste-to-energy plant in Kyrgyzstan, Kyrgyz President Japarov said the factory would help solve waste processing issues while generating electricity and creating jobs. As of May 2025, Chinese companies had been involved in 79 overseas waste-to-energy projects. The “going global” of China’s waste-to-energy industry has become a key component of China’s participation in global environmental governance. 12. What was a problem caused by the Yulong landfill before relocation? A. It occupied too much farming land. B. It led to shortage of natural resources. C. It brought unpleasant smells and pollution. D. It prevented the development of local tourism. 13. Why is the excavated waste from Yulong landfill burned at temperatures above 850°C? A. To break down harmful substances. B. To burn the waste faster. C. To reduce the volume of waste. D. To generate more electricity. 14. What is a feature of Chinese waste-to-energy technology according to Pan? A. It adopts imported guidance. B. It remains under development. C. It targets the domestic market. D. It proves self-sufficient in equipment. 15. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To explain the working principle of a landfill. B. To urge global cooperation on waste processing. C. To compare waste processing technologies at home and abroad. D. To show the advantages and global influence of China’s waste-to-energy technology. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道，文章以深圳玉龙填埋场垃圾处理项目为例，介绍中国领先的垃圾发电技术及其出海参与全球环境治理的实践。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Located near the city center, the landfill long polluted the nearby neighborhoods with terrible smells and dirty groundwater. Meanwhile, the increasing shortage of land resources has forced the city to fundamentally explore new approaches to tackling this waste pile problem. (该垃圾填埋场位于市中心附近，长期以来一直向周边社区排放恶臭气体和污染地下水。与此同时，土地资源日益短缺迫使这座城市不得不从根本上探索新的方法来解决这一垃圾堆积问题。)”可知，玉龙垃圾填埋场在重新搬移前带来了难闻的气味和污染。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“In the incineration workshop, waste gas is kept above 850°C for at least two seconds to completely break down dioxins, a harmful byproduct. (在焚烧车间，废气的温度需保持在850摄氏度以上，并持续至少两秒，以彻底分解二噁英这种有害的副产品。)”可知，废弃物要在超过850摄氏度的高温下进行焚烧处理是为了分解有害物质。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Pan Gong, an expert in solid waste research, said China’s waste-to-energy technology is world-leading. Chinese companies now lead the world in technology, cost control, and operational experience. Most equipment and components have been domestically produced, achieving independent control over the entire industry chain from waste collection and incineration to gas treatment. (Pan Gong，一位固体废弃物研究领域的专家表示，中国的废弃物转化为能源的技术处于世界领先地位。如今，中国的企业在技术、成本控制以及运营经验方面均处于世界领先水平。大部分设备和零部件均为国产，实现了从废弃物收集、焚烧到气体处理的整个产业链的自主掌控。)”可知，Pan Gong认为中国垃圾能源化技术表明其在设备方面是能够自给自足的。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容及最后一段“China is also sharing its experiences and technologies with the world. Speaking at the launch ceremony of a Chinese-funded waste-to-energy plant in Kyrgyzstan, Kyrgyz President Japarov said the factory would help solve waste processing issues while generating electricity and creating jobs. As of May 2025, Chinese companies had been involved in 79 overseas waste-to-energy projects. The “going global” of China’s waste-to-energy industry has become a key component of China’s participation in global environmental governance. (中国也在与世界分享其经验和技术。在吉尔吉斯斯坦一家由中国投资的垃圾发电厂的启动仪式上，吉尔吉斯斯坦总统贾帕罗夫表示，该工厂将有助于解决垃圾处理问题，同时发电并创造就业机会。截至2025年5月，中国企业在海外参与了 79 个垃圾发电项目。中国垃圾发电产业的“走向全球”已成为中国参与全球环境治理的一个关键组成部分。)”可知，本文主要展示中国垃圾转化为能源技术的优势及其在全球范围内的影响力。故选D。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Career planning is a vital process that empowers you to take control of your professional journey.

B 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了一位完美主义者通过学习陶艺，领悟到“学习的美好在于充满瑕疵的过程，而非完美的结果”的成长故事。 【21题详解】 考查副词。句意：如果一开始我无法把某件事做好，我就会干脆就不去做。A. well好地，出色地；B. naturally自然地；C. fast快速地；D. differently不同地。根据首句“I proudly called myself a perfectionist.”明确作者是“完美主义者”，完美主义者的核心特征是追求“把事情做好”。 【22题详解】 考查名词。句意：但到了三十岁，我终于意识到自己的舒适区已经变成了一座牢笼。A. base基地；B. shelter庇护所；C. stage舞台；D. cage笼子，牢笼。根据上文“But turning thirty made me realize my comfort zone”以及下文“Determined to try something new”可知，前文提到作者因为追求完美而不敢尝试新事物，舒适区已经变成了束缚她的枷锁。后文“决心尝试新事物”也印证了她想要打破这种束缚。 【23题详解】 考查动词。句意：在第一节课上，老师演示了如何将黏土固定在旋转的陶轮上。A. explained解释；B. demonstrated演示，示范；C. imagined想象；D. reviewed复习。根据后文“His hands moved with effortless grace”描述他的手优雅地移动，毫不费力，说明老师是动手操作示范如何制作陶艺，而非单纯口头解释。 【24题详解】 考查动词。句意：他的双手动作轻盈自如，几秒钟内就塑造出了一只漂亮的碗。A. shaping塑形；B. designing设计；C. carving雕刻；D. decorating装饰。根据句意以及上文“His hands moved with effortless grace”可知，陶艺制作在转盘上的核心步骤是“给陶土塑形”，“shape a bowl(捏出碗的形状)”是陶艺领域的常用表达。 【25题详解】 考查副词。句意：自信满满地坐在陶轮前的我，期待着能有类似的结果。A. Hesitantly犹豫地；B. Cautiously谨慎地；C. Confidently自信地；D. Nervously紧张地。根据语境以及下文“expecting similar results”可知，作者作为完美主义者，习惯了把事情做好；且看到老师做得轻松优雅，便自信地期待自己也能做出同样完美的作品。 【26题详解】 考查动词。句意：然而，灾难降临了。A. passed经过；通过；B. returned返回；C. struck（灾难、不幸）突然降临，打击；D. continued继续。根据下文“My clay flew off the wheel, leaving mud everywhere.”提到陶土飞出转盘，弄得满身是泥，可知，这正是灾难发生的具体表现。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：当我终于成功地把黏土固定在陶轮上时，我试图向上拉它，结果却导致了大量损坏。A. decisions决定；B. intentions意图，目的；C. abilities能力；D. attempts尝试。根据下文“to pull it upwards resulted in ruined masses”及制作陶具的过程可知，把黏土固定在陶轮上后，作者试图向上拉它。 【28题详解】 考查动词。句意：到了第二周结束时，我已经准备放弃。A. complain抱怨；B. apologize道歉；C. quit放弃；D. hide躲藏。根据上文“I proudly called myself a perfectionist”可知作者是完美主义者，做不好就干脆不做；连续两周的失败让她产生了放弃的念头，这完全符合她的性格逻辑。 【29题详解】 考查名词。句意：看到我的失望，老师走过来。A. disappointment失望；B. relief解脱；C. excitement兴奋；D. guilt内疚。根据上文“By the end of the second week, I was ready to ________.”作者屡屡失败，准备放弃，此时的情绪必然是失望和沮丧。老师正是看到了她的这种情绪，才走过来给予指导。 【30题详解】 考查动词。句意：“你是在与黏土作斗争，”他温和地说道。A. wasting浪费；B. fighting对抗，较劲；C. blaming责备；D. destroying破坏。根据后文“Stop trying to force it to be perfect”老师说别强迫它变得完美，说明作者一直在违背陶土的本性，和材料较劲。 【31题详解】 考查动词。句意：只需感受这种材料，让它按照自己想要的方式成型。A. choose选择；B. control控制；C. feel感受，感知；D. guide引导。根据上文“Stop trying to force it to be perfect.”可知，此处为与前文“force(强迫)”形成对比，老师建议作者顺应材料的本性，去感受陶土的质感，而不是强行控制它。这是陶艺制作的核心技巧，也是文章的转折点。 【32题详解】 考查动词导短语。句意：我深吸一口气，闭上眼睛，放下了严格的期望，让双手自然地移动起来。A. let go of放开；B. lived up to不辜负；C. held on to坚持，抓住；D. kept track of追踪，记录。根据句意以及下文“and allowed my hands to move naturally”可知，作者听从老师的建议，放下了对完美的严格要求，让手自然地移动。 【33题详解】 考查动词。句意：当我睁开眼睛时，这个碗并不完美，但它依然笔直地立着，带有我手指的独特痕迹。A. removing移除；B. bearing带有，具有；C. suffering遭受；D. leaving留下。根据上文“the bowl wasn’t perfect, but it stood upright”和下文“the unique marks of my fingers”可知，碗并不完美，带着作者手指独特的印记。 【34题详解】 考查名词。句意：我保留了那个不完美的碗，以此作为一种永恒的提醒：一项新技能的魅力在于学习过程中的那些混乱与摸索，而不仅仅在于最终的结果。A. proof证明；B. promise承诺；C. warning警告；D. reminder提醒物，提示。根据下文“that the beauty of a new skill lies in...”可知，作者保留这个不完美的碗，是为了时刻提醒自己学习的真谛。 【35题详解】 考查名词。句意：我保留了那个不完美的碗，以此作为一种永恒的提醒：一项新技能的魅力在于学习过程中的那些混乱与摸索，而不仅仅在于最终的结果。A. standard标准；B. process过程；C. purpose目的；D. method方法。根据句意以及下文“not just the final result”可知，文章主旨正是强调“学习的美好在于充满瑕疵的过程，而非完美的结果”。 第二节 语法填空 (共10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分) 根据句意和括号内提示词，在空白处填入正确形式，每个空白处不多于3个词。 Cheers echoed (回响) across the frozen Songhua River in northeast China’s Heilongjiang province, ___36___ students from leading universities in China and Britain competed in a first-of-its-kind ice dragon boat race.

For weeks, my team — Maya, Jake, and I — had dreamed of this moment: the annual Market Day, when the school gym would transform into a lively fair of student-run businesses. The past month had been intense. We spent countless hours brainstorming ideas, before we finally focused on “FashionHut” with creative handicrafts. Maya, who loved herbs, made flower-scented candles using recycled jars. Jake, skilled with knots, decided to learn weaving friendship bracelets (手链) from online courses. I later contributed painted wooden keychains. Together, we calculated costs, detailed market strategies, and planned pricing carefully, all of which came down to a ten-page business plan. And the most stressful moment was when we presented our plan to the review committee. Eventually, they approved our $300 startup loan (借款). We jumped for joy in the hallway. We produced over eighty items with reasonable prices: candles at 6, bracelets at 4, keychains at $3. So we needed to sell that many items to repay the loan. “Everything’s perfect,” Maya declared. Watching students flood into the gym, I believed her. But an hour passed. Then another. Our table remained painfully quiet while chaos erupted around us. A booth (摊位) named “Game On!” had a line of students waiting to play balloon-shooting. Next to them, “Magic Bakery” had sold out of cookies. Students walked past our “FashionHut” with barely a glance. “Maybe our prices are too high,” Jake whispered. “But if we lower prices now, we won’t make enough.” I disagreed. The $300 loan hung over us like a storm cloud. We had signed an agreement to repay the full amount. By the two-hour bell, we had sold exactly two candles and one bracelet. We had two hundred and eighty-four dollars to go. Normally, I avoided talking to strangers. In class, I never raised my hand. But now thinking of the loan, weeks of work, and my friends’ disappointed faces, I wouldn’t want our business to go up in smoke. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “New plan. We can no longer wait for them to come to us,” I declared. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the final bell rang, we counted our earnings eagerly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “New plan. We can no longer wait for them to come to us,” I declared. I grabbed a couple of our items and stepped straight into the crowd. My voice was tense but firm as I approached the students, introducing our crafts proudly — candles in recycled jars, woven bracelets, and painted wooden keychains. Attracted by our unique handmade items and eco-friendly ideas, they followed me to our booth. Maya, Jake and I smiled and served every customer warmly. Students asked about the herbs in the candles and the story behind each keychain and bracelet, their curiosity turning into purchases. After the final bell rang, we counted our earnings eagerly. Jake’s hands trembled as he counted the bills. “Three hundred and twenty-six dollars,” he announced. We hugged with laughter and joyful tears mixed. Three hundred for the loan, and twenty-six left to share. We realized the real reward was what we had discovered about ourselves. We had started the day as three nervous students with handmade crafts, but ended it as a team who learned that courage, not products, made our business succeed. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了“我”和好友Maya、Jake精心筹备“FashionHut”手工摊位，却在Market Day当天遭遇冷场，面临300美元贷款偿还压力，原本内向的“我”鼓起勇气主动推销，最终成功盈利、收获成长的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写 ① 由第一段首句“‘新计划。我们不能再等他们来找我们了。’我宣布。”可知，接下来可描写“我”克服内向，主动走进人群推销手工制品，凭借独特的手工设计和环保理念吸引学生，好友们配合“我”热情服务，摊位逐渐热闹起来。 ② 由第二段首句“终场铃声响起后，我们急切地清点着收入。”可知，接下来可描写三人紧张计数盈利、得知成功还清贷款并有所结余的喜悦，以及从中领悟到的道理。 2. 续写线索 提出主动推销的新计划——“我”克服内向走进人群推销——手工制品吸引学生、摊位热闹起来——Market Day结束后急切计数盈利——得知盈利达标、还清贷款——领悟创业成功的核心的道理 3.词类激活 行为类 ①抓：grab/seize ②靠近：approach/near ③颤抖：tremble/shake 情绪类 ①紧张的：tense/nervous ②坚定的：firm/determined ③快乐的：joyful/cheerful/pleasant 【点睛】【高分句型1】My voice was tense but firm as I approached the students, introducing our crafts proudly — candles in recycled jars, woven bracelets, and painted wooden keychains.（运用了as引导时间状语从句以及现在分词introducing作状语） 【高分句型2】We realized the real reward was what we had discovered about ourselves.（运用了省略连接词that的宾语从句和what引导表语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 平罗中学2026-2027 学年度第一学期第一次月考试卷 高三英语 （满分150分，考试时间120分钟） 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。每段对话读二遍。 1．Where does the man want to go?

Traditional ways of monitoring wildlife, which mainly depend on manual patrols (巡逻), often face problems like terrible environment, long distances and low efficiency, making it hard to protect rare animals in time and completely. A “sky-earth-space” monitoring system has emerged to solve these problems. It has three main parts and can track wild animal groups all-round and in real time. Its structure can be shown clearly by a simple diagram, which displays how the three monitoring layers connect and work together: Structure Diagram of “Sky-Earth-Space” Monitoring System The diagram takes the central database as the core. The three monitoring layers (aerial, terrestrial, space-based) are connected to it. Each layer collects data on its own and sends it to the database for analysis, forming a complete monitoring cycle. Monitoring Layer Core Equipment Main Function Aerial UAVs with thermal (热的) cameras Cover large wild areas fast; detect activities in darkness Terrestrial Infrared (红外的) cameras Monitor water sources/ corridors 24/7; record natural behaviors without disturbance Space-based Satellite navigation & positioning collars Track long-distance migration of large mammals In practice, the aerial layer uses UAVs to scan large areas, while the ground layer sets infrared cameras at key spots. The space layer helps track long-distance migration. All data go to the central database. This tech system greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of biodiversity protection. It reduces the need for manual work, thus reducing human influence on wildlife and helping endangered species recover better. 1. What is a disadvantage of traditional wildlife monitoring methods? A. They are too human-dependent. B. They fail to cover long distances. C. They can’t save endangered species. D. They require complex technical operation. 2. What is the main function of the aerial monitoring layer? A. To track long-distance animal migration. B. To quickly scan and detect large wild areas. C. To build and update the central database. D. To record animals’ natural behaviors non-stop. 3. What can we learn about the “sky-earth-space” monitoring system? A. It primarily needs manual data collection. B. It totally removes human influence on wildlife. C. It has fully replaced traditional protection ways. D. It highly contributes to biodiversity preservation. B Ghanaian photojournalist Paul Ninson arrived in New York five years ago with a passion for visual storytelling. To his surprise, the city’s libraries and museums held more photographs documenting Africa’s past and present than he had ever seen in Ghana. “How could our history be better kept here than at home?” he wondered. This realization became the start of his life’s work: to build a library in Ghana where Africans could reclaim their stories through photography. Growing up, Ninson loved family stories told by his grandparents, but photography was seen as an unwise career choice in Ghana. However, he sold his iPhone to buy a camera and taught himself the skill. His early projects, like recording a Kenyan community started by women escaping violence, strengthened his belief that Africans must own their visual history. In 2019, Ninson joined a photography school in New York. There, he eagerly read hundreds of photobooks — a clear difference from Ghana, where such books were rare. When museums refused to share their records, Ninson promised to build his own library. He searched secondhand stores, asked publishers for help, and filled storage units with over 30,000 books, even using up all his credit card limits. His friend Brandon Stanton’s $1.2 million online fundraiser made the dream possible. With the funds, Ninson shipped the books to Ghana and established the library. On a December morning in 2022, the Dikan Center — “take the lead” in Ghana’s Akan language — opened in Accra, near the Gulf of Guinea’s historic coast. The library’s two collections celebrate African views: one focuses on Africa and Africans living abroad, the other displays works by photographers worldwide. Among its treasures is Ninson’s first New York purchase: The Gold Coast Yesterday and Today, a 1940s photobook documenting Ghana’s history before it gained independence in 1957. “It reminds us where we’ve been and where we’re going,” he says. 4. What inspired Ninson to create African’s own visual history? A. Finding photobooks in secondhand stores. B. Studying at a New York photography school. C. Developing his family storytelling traditions. D. Finding more African records overseas than locally. 5. Why is The Gold Coast Yesterday and Today important? A. It contains stories from his grandparents. B. It was donated by a photography school. C. It shows Ghana’s history under foreign rule. D. It was Ninson’s first photobook purchase in New York. 6. What best describes Paul Ninson’s character as highlighted in the text? A. Ambitious and humorous. B. Creative and sympathetic. C. Conventional and home-centered. D. Committed and forward-thinking. 7. What does Ninson’s story mainly inspire us to do? A. Value teamwork in cultural projects. B. Use technology to document history. C. Pursue cultural goals through determined action. D. Rely on external institutions for heritage protection. C It’s not unusual for snow to fall in winter. During the cold weather months, some folks like to share recipes for how to make snow ice cream and other treats that use fresh powder as a base, adding milk, sugar, and toppings. Obviously, no one is recommending anyone scoop up a bowlful of snow idling on the side of the road, full of salt, muck (淤泥), and other unpleasantness. But it does beg the question: Is any snow actually safe to consume? While you may assume snow that’s freshly fallen and collected in an undisturbed area — even a cup set out for that purpose — is free of any contaminants (污染物), don’t be so sure. According to meteorologist Mary Scarzello Fairbanks, snow isn’t all that clean. It’s formed when water droplets freeze around some dust or debris in the air, forming an ice crystal that continues to collect water vapor and form a snowflake. When it falls, it will also collect things hanging in the air, including dirt and even bacterial particles. Depending on the region, snow could also contain mercury (水银) or pesticides. If it’s windy, snow could even mix with dirt kicked up from the soil before settling. A 2015 study published in the journal Environmental Science: Processes & Impacts even demonstrated how snow could mix with gas exhaust. This all means that, theoretically, your snow ice cream could have some pretty disgusting “toppings”. At the same time, there doesn’t seem to be a surge of reports of illnesses related to snow consumption. Assuming you don’t consume a huge quantity of it, it’s unlikely that whatever contaminants might be in the snow will be present in large enough amounts to cause problems. While no one is technically advocating for snow ingestion here, just a small bite will probably be fine. Eating snow in an emergency is another matter. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) warns against snow snacking for people like hikers, because it can lower one’s body temperature. In cases where there is a water supply issue, the CDC says it’s safe to take collected snow and boil it to kill off any bacteria. 8. What is the correct order of snow formation? ① Ice crystals are formed. ② Water and vapor are collected. ③ A snowflake comes into being. ④ Water droplets freeze in the air. A. ②④①③ B. ④①②③ C. ②①④③ D. ④①③② 9. What is the function of paragraph 4? A. To introduce a new concept. B. To offer a detailed explanation. C. To pave the way for what follows. D.

From Cloud to Table: The Journey of a Snowflake D At the foot of Yinhu Mountain in Shenzhen, the Yulong landfill — once the city’s largest waste site — is busy in the early morning. After two decades undisturbed, the Yulong landfill’s 2.55 million cubic meters of waste — a volume large enough to fill 1,000 swimming pools — is now undergoing the nation’s largest excavation (挖掘) and relocation project, with dozens of excavators operating all out. Located near the city center, the landfill long polluted the nearby neighborhoods with terrible smells and dirty groundwater. Meanwhile, the increasing shortage of land resources has forced the city to fundamentally explore new approaches to tackling this waste pile problem. Now, at the site, trucks transport different categories of waste to sorting centers. After sorting, burnable materials of the household waste are transported to the energy ecological park for incineration (焚烧), thus turning waste into resources. In the incineration workshop, waste gas is kept above 850°C for at least two seconds to completely break down dioxins, a harmful byproduct. After many steps of purification, the gas released meets higher standards than those of the EU. The project can deal with 330,000 tons of burnable waste and produce 100 million kilowatt-hours of electricity yearly, enough for 26,000 families. Pan Gong, an expert in solid waste research, said China’s waste-to-energy technology is world-leading. Chinese companies now lead the world in technology, cost control, and operational experience. Most equipment and components have been domestically produced, achieving independent control over the entire industry chain from waste collection and incineration to gas treatment. China is also sharing its experiences and technologies with the world. Speaking at the launch ceremony of a Chinese-funded waste-to-energy plant in Kyrgyzstan, Kyrgyz President Japarov said the factory would help solve waste processing issues while generating electricity and creating jobs. As of May 2025, Chinese companies had been involved in 79 overseas waste-to-energy projects. The “going global” of China’s waste-to-energy industry has become a key component of China’s participation in global environmental governance. 12. What was a problem caused by the Yulong landfill before relocation? A. It occupied too much farming land. B. It led to shortage of natural resources. C. It brought unpleasant smells and pollution. D. It prevented the development of local tourism. 13. Why is the excavated waste from Yulong landfill burned at temperatures above 850°C? A. To break down harmful substances. B. To burn the waste faster. C. To reduce the volume of waste. D. To generate more electricity. 14. What is a feature of Chinese waste-to-energy technology according to Pan? A. It adopts imported guidance. B. It remains under development. C. It targets the domestic market. D. It proves self-sufficient in equipment. 15. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To explain the working principle of a landfill. B. To urge global cooperation on waste processing. C. To compare waste processing technologies at home and abroad. D. To show the advantages and global influence of China’s waste-to-energy technology. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Career planning is a vital process that empowers you to take control of your professional journey.

For weeks, my team — Maya, Jake, and I — had dreamed of this moment: the annual Market Day, when the school gym would transform into a lively fair of student-run businesses. The past month had been intense. We spent countless hours brainstorming ideas, before we finally focused on “FashionHut” with creative handicrafts. Maya, who loved herbs, made flower-scented candles using recycled jars. Jake, skilled with knots, decided to learn weaving friendship bracelets (手链) from online courses. I later contributed painted wooden keychains. Together, we calculated costs, detailed market strategies, and planned pricing carefully, all of which came down to a ten-page business plan. And the most stressful moment was when we presented our plan to the review committee. Eventually, they approved our $300 startup loan (借款). We jumped for joy in the hallway. We produced over eighty items with reasonable prices: candles at 6, bracelets at 4, keychains at $3. So we needed to sell that many items to repay the loan. “Everything’s perfect,” Maya declared. Watching students flood into the gym, I believed her. But an hour passed. Then another. Our table remained painfully quiet while chaos erupted around us. A booth (摊位) named “Game On!” had a line of students waiting to play balloon-shooting. Next to them, “Magic Bakery” had sold out of cookies. Students walked past our “FashionHut” with barely a glance. “Maybe our prices are too high,” Jake whispered. “But if we lower prices now, we won’t make enough.” I disagreed. The $300 loan hung over us like a storm cloud. We had signed an agreement to repay the full amount. By the two-hour bell, we had sold exactly two candles and one bracelet. We had two hundred and eighty-four dollars to go. Normally, I avoided talking to strangers. In class, I never raised my hand. But now thinking of the loan, weeks of work, and my friends’ disappointed faces, I wouldn’t want our business to go up in smoke. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “New plan. We can no longer wait for them to come to us,” I declared. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the final bell rang, we counted our earnings eagerly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
