Recommended Books for Earth Month 2026
One indirect outcome of Earth Day was the collective decision to protect the wildlife we live with and to cope with the resulting tensions. Here are three of the many titles gathered for this 2026 Earth Month bookshelf.
My Life with Wolves: How I Became the Storyteller for the Yellowstone Packs by Rick McIntyre (Greystone Books, 2026, 296 pages, $30.00)
Former park ranger (护林人) Rick McIntyre shares decades of wisdom from observing wolves in Yellowstone. He narrates how he narrowly missed a deer’s charge and watched alpha wolves battle for territory. More importantly, this memoir explains how the wolves’ calm assertiveness shaped his own values.
The Company of Owls: A Memoir by Polly Atkin (Milkweed Editions, 2026, 216 pages, $25.00)
Restricted by illness to her cottage in England’s Lake District, Polly Atkin finds companionship in a family of owls living nearby. As she watches them grow, she reflects on survival and solitude. The owls, she writes, taught her to listen carefully to the world around her.
Outsider Animals: How the Creatures at the Margin of Our Lives Have the Most to Teach Us by Marlene Zuk (Princeton University Press, 2026, 312 pages, $29.95)
Biologist Marlene Zuk shifts our focus to creatures we frequently overlook — such as snakes, cockroaches, butterflies and other little-known species. With wit and genuine curiosity, she reveals what cockroaches can teach us about evolution, how butterflies reshape our understanding of pollution, and why even unpopular animals offer profound lessons.
21. What does Rick McIntyre mainly convey in his book?
A. Observing wolves helped him develop his personal beliefs.
B. His career as a park ranger was filled with unexpected risks.
C. The Yellowstone wolf packs have complex social structures.
D. Humans should always keep a safe distance from wild animals.
22. What drove Polly Atkin to seek companionship with the owls?
A. Her desire to write a nature memoir. B. Her limited mobility due to health issues.
C. Her preference for animals over humans. D. Her childhood dream of living in the wild.
23. What do the three books have in common?
A. They are set in North America.
B. They focus on survival challenges of wild animals.
C. They explore the connection between humans and nature.
D. They stress the importance of protecting endangered species.
【答案】21. A 22. B 23. C

【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据My Life with Wolves部分“More importantly, this memoir explains how the wolves’ calm assertiveness shaped his own values.(更重要的是,这部回忆录解释了狼群平静而坚定的特质如何塑造了他自己的价值观)”可知,作者Rick McIntyre在这本回忆录中主要传达了观察狼群如何帮助他塑造了个人的价值观。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据The Company of Owls部分“Restricted by illness to her cottage in England’s Lake District, Polly Atkin finds companionship in a family of owls living nearby. As she watches them grow, she reflects on survival and solitude. The owls, she writes, taught her to listen carefully to the world around her.(因病只能待在英格兰湖区的一间小屋里,波莉·阿特金在附近一家猫头鹰家族中找到了陪伴。看着它们成长,她开始思考生存与孤独。她写道,这些猫头鹰教会了她仔细倾听周围的世界)”可知,Polly Atkin因疾病被困于村舍,行动受限,这才促使她在附近的猫头鹰一家中寻找陪伴。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“One indirect outcome of Earth Day was the collective decision to protect the wildlife we live with and to cope with the resulting tensions. Here are three of the many titles gathered for this 2026 Earth Month bookshelf.(地球日的一个间接成果,是人们共同决定保护与我们共存的野生动物,并应对由此带来的种种紧张局面。以下是为2026年地球月书架精心挑选的三本作品)”以及第一本书讲人通过观察狼群形成自己的价值观,第二本书讲人因病受限而从猫头鹰身上学会聆听世界,第三本书讲被忽视的生物能教给人类深刻的道理可知,三本书的共同点是都探讨了人类与自然之间的联系与互动。
B
What do you eat when you need comfort? The answer varies depending on where you’re from, but it’s likely some form of broth (肉汤), served steaming in a bowl.
Across continents, broths are woven into cultural and familial memory. They rarely command attention on their own — yet they form the backbone of countless cuisines.
For Dara Klein, a chef in London, broth connects the threads between her early childhood memories in Italy and her life’s work. In Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region, tortellini in brodo is a Christmas tradition. Families gather to shape the pasta by hand while the broth simmers. “Italians are introduced to broth very early in life,” Klein says. “People connect to it deeply.”
Zoey Xinyi Gong, a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) food therapist, remembers her grandmother’s chicken soup with goji berries. “There’s always a soup for every meal,” Gong says. “A meal is not complete without soup.” In TCM, which dates back to the 2nd century BC, broth-based soups help maintain the body’s yin and yang — a balance essential for health.
Chicken soup, in particular, has long been associated with recovery. Korea’s samgye-tang is eaten during the hottest summer days as a restorative meal. Greece’s avgolemono combines chicken broth with egg, lemon and rice. Mexico’s caldo de pate is a sustaining everyday soup.
Scientific research into broth’s benefits is ongoing. Some studies suggest it may help reduce inflammation and ease cold symptoms. However, many sweeping health claims surrounding bone broth remain contested, and its benefits are often overstated in popular wellness culture.
Gong recalls being shocked when bone broth became a trendy health product in New York. “They were selling it at coffee shops for $10 for little cups,” she says. “But we’ve been drinking that for a very long time in China.”
Whether simmered for survival, wellness or celebration, one thing seems universal: In kitchens everywhere, someone is still tending the pot.
24. What does Dara Klein say about broth in Italian culture?
A. It is a recent cooking invention.
B. It is only served during Christmas.
C. It was first documented in royal courts.
D. It has deep emotional and traditional roots.
25. What can be inferred about soup in Chinese culture from Gong’s words and TCM principles?
A. It is considered essential but primarily for its flavor.
B. It is only consumed when someone is feeling unwell.
C. It is valued as a tool for maintaining physical harmony.
D. It has been replaced by modern medicine in recent years.
26. What is the author’s attitude toward the health claims made in popular wellness culture?
A. Complete rejection. B. Cautious skepticism.
C. Neutral observation. D. Enthusiastic support.
27. Which phrase or idiom most closely reflects the main idea of the passage?
A. There is no place like home.
B. One man’s meat is another man’s poison.
C. The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
D. A spoonful of comfort — across lands and tongues.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了肉汤在世界各地不同文化里占据重要地位,它承载着家庭与文化记忆,兼具饮食、养生价值,同时作者也客观看待了市面上关于肉汤的各类健康说法。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据原文第三段“Italians are introduced to broth very early in life,” Klein says. “People connect to it deeply.”(Klein说:“意大利人从小就接触肉汤,人们对它有着深厚的情感。”) 可知,肉汤在意大利文化中有着深厚的情感与传统根基。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据原文第四段“In TCM, which dates back to the 2nd century BC, broth-based soups help maintain the body’s yin and yang—a balance essential for health.(追溯至公元前 2 世纪的中医认为,各类汤品有助于维持人体阴阳平衡,而这种平衡是健康的关键。)”可知,在中国文化中,汤被视作维持身体调和的一种方式。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据原文第六段“However, many sweeping health claims surrounding bone broth remain contested, and its benefits are often overstated in popular wellness culture.(然而,许多关于骨汤的宽泛健康说法仍存有争议,在当下流行的养生文化中,它的功效也常常被夸大。)”可知,作者对流行养生文化中的相关健康说法持谨慎质疑的态度。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据原文第一段“What do you eat when you need comfort? The answer varies depending on where you’re from, but it’s likely some form of broth, served steaming in a bowl.(当你想要寻求慰藉时,会吃些什么?答案因人而异,但多半是一碗热气腾腾的肉汤。)”及全文内容可知,文章围绕肉汤展开,讲述它在不同国家、不同文化中都能给人带来慰藉,因此最贴合文章主旨的是 “一勺慰藉,跨越地域与语言”。
C
A massive concrete-and-glass structure hangs above traffic on Wilshire Boulevard. It is the new home of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the largest art museum in western America. Its daring architecture is not the only unusual thing about it.
“We’ve given up traditional categories of geography,” says Michael Govan, LACMA’s director. “The idea is to wander.” The museum’s single floor treats all artworks equally: no one movement is presented as more important than another. The museum is loosely organized around oceans to emphasize trade and cultural exchange. The Indian Ocean section, for example, includes Turkish ceramics (瓷器) with blue-and-white flower patterns, influenced by earlier Chinese designs.
LACMA’s break from conventional organization symbolizes a movement towards global galleries as the global economy expands. London’s Tate Modern traditionally centered on Western European art. However, it rearranged its works by theme after 2000 to highlight cultural links. The press hated it. In 2019, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) rejected fixed long-term displays. Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” will probably always be on view but the neighbouring wall will sometimes hold photography. Such an adaptable approach allows for unexpected encounters. Yet not everyone may appreciate it.
What is a thoughtful contrast to one visitor may be hard to understand for another. At LACMA a giant coffee table shows off ceramics from various eras. Why? Visitors who can scan QR codes will find out; the rest will merely wonder. But if such experiments fail to impress, curators (策展人) can rearrange the art again.
Museums should not be inflexible palaces for artworks, many curators argue: they should reflect their surroundings and times. At the new LACMA, says Govan, “We don’t go into a dark box and somebody tells us what to think.” Rather, it tries to be in conversation with Los Angeles (LA). Architecturally, the museum’s uneven shape and floor-to-ceiling windows frame the palm trees (棕榈树) and hills, putting LA itself on display.
28. What is special about the new LACMA?
A. Displaying artworks flexibly. B. Stressing ocean movement.
C. Treating artworks differently. D. Featuring Chinese designs.
29. Why does the writer mention Tate Modern and MoMA?
A. To compare them with LACMA. B. To highlight an exhibition trend.
C. To promote long-term displays. D. To explain economic globalization.
30. What is a potential problem with the new exhibition style?
A. It limits the variety of artworks. B. It depends on QR code technology.
C. It brings little profit to art galleries. D. It causes confusion for some visitors.
31. What can be inferred about the new museum from the last paragraph?
A. It values architecture over artworks. B. It may raise argument over art styles.
C. It can mirror environments and times. D. It guides how visitors view the art world.
【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍洛杉矶郡艺术博物馆新馆打破传统展览模式,采用灵活布展,列举其他博物馆同类变革,谈及新模式弊端,指出博物馆应当反映所处环境与时代。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The museum’s single floor treats all artworks equally: no one movement is presented as more important than another.(博物馆的单层展厅对所有艺术作品一视同仁:没有任何一种艺术运动被视作比另一种更重要)”可知,新LACMA展出艺术作品具有灵活性。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“LACMA’s break from conventional organization symbolizes a movement towards global galleries as the global economy expands. London’s Tate Modern traditionally centered on Western European art. However, it rearranged its works by theme after 2000 to highlight cultural links. The press hated it. In 2019, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) rejected fixed long-term displays.(洛杉矶郡艺术博物馆(LACMA)的组织方式突破传统,象征着在全球经济不断扩张的背景下,向全球性美术馆发展。伦敦泰特现代美术馆过去一直以西欧艺术为中心,但自2000年后,它根据主题重新编排展品,以突出文化联系。这一做法遭到媒体的批评。2019年,现代艺术博物馆(MoMA)也拒绝了长期固定展览模式)”可知,作者提到泰特现代美术馆和现代艺术博物馆是为了突出展览趋势。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“What is a thoughtful contrast to one visitor may be hard to understand for another. At LACMA a giant coffee table shows off ceramics from various eras. Why? Visitors who can scan QR codes will find out; the rest will merely wonder.(对一位访客而言,一个深思熟虑的对比可能难以被另一位理解。在洛杉矶县艺术博物馆(LACMA),一张巨大的咖啡桌陈列着不同时代的陶瓷作品。为什么?扫描二维码的游客会明白;其余人则只能感到纳闷)”可知,新展览风格可能存在的一个潜在问题是:它会让部分参观者感到困惑。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Museums should not be inflexible palaces for artworks, many curators argue: they should reflect their surroundings and times.(许多策展人认为,博物馆不应是僵化的艺术宫殿,而应反映其周围环境和时代背景)”可知,新博物馆能够反映环境和时代。

Feeling thirsty? Drawing clean water directly from the air is possible, as even extremely dry regions contain some moisture (水汽). Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days.
To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method. Instead of heating the water-absorbing materials to release water, they use high-frequency ultrasonic (超声波的) vibrations to shake the moisture loose. These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops.
The new approach elegantly bypasses the materials’ unyielding nature. “Any material that is very good at absorbing water doesn’t want to part with it,” explains Boriskina. “So you normally need to put a lot of energy into pulling water out.” With ultrasound, this process is completely transformed. Lab tests show this method is about 45 times more efficient than traditional heating, freeing the trapped water in mere minutes.
This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day. Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night.
The project’s ultimate purpose goes far beyond laboratory efficiency. Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air.
32. What does “this bottleneck” mentioned in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The lack of water in dry regions.
B. The huge cost of current devices.
C. The slow process of releasing water.
D. The poor performance of the materials.
33. How do the ultrasound waves release water from the materials?
A. By heating the watery materials.
B. By overcoming the trapping force.
C. By breaking water into small drops.
D. By changing the materials’ property.
34. What activates the new device automatically?
A. An electronic sensor. B. A water cycling setup.
C. Insufficient water absorption. D. Continuous sunlight exposure.
35. What does Boriskina highlight regarding the project in the last paragraph?
A. Its further research. B. Its practical potential.
C. Its current limitations. D. Its technical improvements.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了麻省理工学院工程师研发出一种全新的大气集水技术。
【32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据上第一段“Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days.(在过去几年里,研究人员研发出了海绵状材料。这类材料通过吸收水汽,让“大气集水”(AWH)成为可能。然而,提取这些捕获的水分通常需要加热,并且要等待很长时间。目前大多数系统依靠阳光来加热这些材料。这个缓慢的步骤可能需要数小时,甚至会延长至数日。)”可知,上文提到传统技术收集水汽之后,释放水的过程很慢,耗时很久。this bottleneck 指代前文这个缓慢的释水过程。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops.(这些声波经过精准调谐,可以破坏将水分子固定住的弱化学键。这种定向扰动会产生足够的力量释放水分,将水以小液滴的形式抖落出来。)”可知,超声波打破束缚水分子的弱键,也就是克服锁住水分子的束缚力,从而释放水分。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night.(这套系统由一块小型太阳能电池供电。该电池既能供电,又可充当传感器,检测材料何时吸满水分。一旦收集到足够的水,系统就会自动启动,让整套装置能够昼夜循环运行。)”可知,新装置的小型太阳能电池同时充当电子传感器让新设备自动启动。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air.(博里斯基娜指出,这项技术能够为缺乏淡水的偏远社区提供可靠的饮用水源。随着全球水危机不断加剧,这项创新带来了一丝希望,它或许能从稀薄的空气中获取救命的水源。)”可知,在最后一段,Boriskina 着重强调项目的实际应用潜能。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何找到一个一起锻炼的伙伴。
【36题详解】
根据前文“Fitness Magazine recently ran an article titled “Five Reasons to Thank Your Workout Partner.” One reason was: “You’ll actually show up if you know someone is waiting for you at the gym,”(《健身杂志》最近刊登了一篇题为《感谢健身伙伴的五个理由》的文章。一个理由是:“如果你知道有人在健身房等你,你就会去锻炼。”)”以及后文“With a workout partner, you will increase your training effort as there is a subtle (微妙) competition. (有一个锻炼伙伴,你将会努力训练,因为你们之间有一个微妙的竞争)”可知,空处陈述另一个和别人一起锻炼的理由,故选项应与后文是顺承关系,选项C中的“train with someone else”与后文的“With a workout partner”相对应,选项C“You’ll work harder if you train with someone else.(如果你和别人一起训练,你会更努力)”符合语意。故选C项。
【37题详解】
根据前文“First of all, decide what you want from that person. (首先,决定你想从那个人身上得到什么)”和后文“Or do you just want to be physically fit, able to move with strength and flexibility?(或者你只是想要身体健康,能够移动的力量和灵活性?)”可知,这里是一个问句,反问自己结伴锻炼的目的,故空处与后文是选择关系,你要知道你锻炼是为了什么。所以选项D“Do you want to be a better athlete in your favorite sport? (你想在你最喜欢的运动项目上成为更好的运动员吗?)”与后文在语意上构成选择关系。故选D项。
【38题详解】
根据前文“You might think about posting what you are looking for on social media, but it probably won't result in a useful response. (你可能会考虑在社交媒体上发布你想要的东西,但可能不会得到有用的回应)”和后文“If you plan on working out in a gym, that person must belong to the same gym.(如果你打算在健身房锻炼,那个人一定是同一个健身房的)”可知,寻找的锻炼伙伴要具有便利性的特点。选项B中的“live close by”与后文的“belong to the same gym”相对应,选项B“A workout partner usually needs to live close by. (锻炼伙伴通常需要住在附近)”与下文是顺承关系。故选B项。
【39题详解】
根据前文“My partner posted her request on the notice board of a local park. Her notice included what kind of training she wanted to do, how many days a week and how many hours she wanted to spend on each session, and her age. It also listed her favorite sports and activities, and provided her phone number. (我的搭档把她的要求贴在了当地公园的布告栏上。她的注意事项包括她想要做什么样的锻炼,每周多少天,每次培训要花多少小时,以及她的年龄。它还列出了她最喜欢的运动和活动,并提供了她的电话号码)”可知,本段作者以自己的锻炼伙伴为例,说明寻找锻炼伙伴布告所要包括的信息。所以选项G“Any notice for a training partner should include such information. (任何锻炼伙伴的布告都应包括这些信息)”是对上文内容的总结,符合语意。故选G项。
【40题详解】
根据前文“You and your partner will probably have different skills. (你和你的伴侣可能有不同的技能)”和后文“Over time, both of you will benefit—your partner will be able to lift more weights and you will become more physically fit. The core (核心) of your relationship is that you will always be there to help each other. (久而久之,你们双方都会受益—你的伴侣会举起更多的重量,你也会变得更健康。你们关系的核心是你们永远在一起互相帮助)”可知,要学会求同存异,一起合作,共同提高。选项F中的“differences”对应前文的“different skills”,选项中的“work with each other”对应后文的“be there to help each other”,故选项F“Just accept your differences and learn to work with each other. (接受你们的不同,学会彼此合作)”起到承上启下的作用,符合语意。故选F项。

【56题详解】
考查时态。句意:三十多年来,他一直是东西方之间备受喜爱的桥梁。根据时间状语For over three decades可知,句子应用现在完成时,或强调这一动作一直正在进行,使用现在完成进行时,主语he是第三人称单数,助动词用has,谓语用has served/has been serving。
【57题详解】
考查冠词。句意:在大山最新的纪录片《不系之舟》中,他带领观众踏上了一段穿越中国历史的个人旅程。空处泛指“一段穿越中国历史的个人旅程”,应用不定冠词,personal是辅音音素开头的单词,应用a。

考查名词。句意:大山在首映式上分享了他与这位诗人的深厚联系,“35年来,我一直热爱苏轼的诗歌,我发现走苏轼走过的路非常有意义。”。空处作宾语,应使用名词connection,表示“联系”。

【63题详解】

【答案】Dear Chris,
Regarding the style of our graduation song, we seem to have different preferences. You lean toward a lively pop-rock style, while I think a soft acoustic ballad would be more suitable.
In my opinion, a gentle melody with meaningful lyrics can better express the mixed emotions of graduation — the joy of achievement and the sadness of parting. It invites reflection and touches people’s hearts more deeply, which I believe is what a graduation song should do.
What do you think? Looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头谱续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My best friend, Emily, and I had been inseparable since middle school. We shared everything — lunches, secrets, and dreams for the future. Yet as graduation approached, the mounting stress of exams and college applications began to take its toll on both of us. We studied side by side and promised to get through this together.
The turning point came after the midterm examinations. I had prepared for weeks — sacrificing sleep, skipping social gatherings — yet my score fell far below my expectation. Emily, on the other hand, received one of the highest grades in our class. She tried to be kind about it, never bragging or even mentioning her score. But somehow, that made things worse.
She came to me that afternoon with my favorite snacks. “It’s just one exam,” she said gently. “You’ll do better next time.” I nodded but could not bring myself to look at her. She attempted to lighten the mood with silly jokes, but every word felt like a reminder of the growing gap between us. Then she said, half-jokingly, “Come on, don’t be so negative. It’s not the end of the world.”
Something inside me broke. “Easy for you to say,” I erupted. “You’re not the one who failed.” The moment the words left my mouth, I regretted them. Her face fell. She parted her lips to respond, but no words came. After a long, painful silence, she simply stood up and walked away without a word.
The following days were cold and heavy. We stopped sitting together at lunch. She found a new table, and I did the same. We passed each other in the hallways like strangers. I could tell she was hurting too, but pride kept us both frozen. The silence between us was not empty — it was loaded with guilt, pride, and everything we wished we could say.
It was not until our English teacher assigned us to work together on a final presentation that we were forced to confront each other. When I saw our names paired on the list, I felt a mix of dread and relief. Finally, there was no way out.
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。
Silence fell upon us whew we sat down to prepare at first.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the weight lifted off our shoulders, we threw ourselves into preparing the presentation.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Silence fell upon us when we sat down to prepare at first. Neither of us spoke for what felt like an eternity. I kept my eyes fixed on the notebook, my fingers nervously twisting together. Then, out of the corner of my eye, I saw Emily reach out and gently push a pen toward me — the same pen I had lent her years ago during a chemistry exam. That small gesture broke something inside me. “I’m sorry,” I whispered, my voice trembling. She looked up, tears welling in her eyes. “Me too,” she said softly. Without another word, we pulled our chairs closer and began dividing the presentation slides. The ice finally melted away.
With the weight lifted off our shoulders, we threw ourselves into preparing the presentation. Dividing the work naturally, we soon found our old rhythm — she researched statistics while I designed the slides. Before long, we finished our own parts and discussed how to polish the presentation as a whole. Finally came the presentation day. Having exchanged an encouraging smile, we strode to the front with confidence. The applause that followed felt like a shared victory. It was then that I realized: True friendship isn’t about waiting for the other to apologize first — it’s about being the one brave enough to reach out.
【解析】

Recommended Books for Earth Month 2026
One indirect outcome of Earth Day was the collective decision to protect the wildlife we live with and to cope with the resulting tensions. Here are three of the many titles gathered for this 2026 Earth Month bookshelf.
My Life with Wolves: How I Became the Storyteller for the Yellowstone Packs by Rick McIntyre (Greystone Books, 2026, 296 pages, $30.00)
Former park ranger (护林人) Rick McIntyre shares decades of wisdom from observing wolves in Yellowstone. He narrates how he narrowly missed a deer’s charge and watched alpha wolves battle for territory. More importantly, this memoir explains how the wolves’ calm assertiveness shaped his own values.
The Company of Owls: A Memoir by Polly Atkin (Milkweed Editions, 2026, 216 pages, $25.00)
Restricted by illness to her cottage in England’s Lake District, Polly Atkin finds companionship in a family of owls living nearby. As she watches them grow, she reflects on survival and solitude. The owls, she writes, taught her to listen carefully to the world around her.
Outsider Animals: How the Creatures at the Margin of Our Lives Have the Most to Teach Us by Marlene Zuk (Princeton University Press, 2026, 312 pages, $29.95)
Biologist Marlene Zuk shifts our focus to creatures we frequently overlook — such as snakes, cockroaches, butterflies and other little-known species. With wit and genuine curiosity, she reveals what cockroaches can teach us about evolution, how butterflies reshape our understanding of pollution, and why even unpopular animals offer profound lessons.
21. What does Rick McIntyre mainly convey in his book?
A. Observing wolves helped him develop his personal beliefs.
B. His career as a park ranger was filled with unexpected risks.
C. The Yellowstone wolf packs have complex social structures.
D. Humans should always keep a safe distance from wild animals.
22. What drove Polly Atkin to seek companionship with the owls?
A. Her desire to write a nature memoir. B. Her limited mobility due to health issues.
C. Her preference for animals over humans. D. Her childhood dream of living in the wild.
23. What do the three books have in common?
A. They are set in North America.
B. They focus on survival challenges of wild animals.
C. They explore the connection between humans and nature.
D. They stress the importance of protecting endangered species.
B
What do you eat when you need comfort? The answer varies depending on where you’re from, but it’s likely some form of broth (肉汤), served steaming in a bowl.
Across continents, broths are woven into cultural and familial memory. They rarely command attention on their own — yet they form the backbone of countless cuisines.
For Dara Klein, a chef in London, broth connects the threads between her early childhood memories in Italy and her life’s work. In Italy’s Emilia-Romagna region, tortellini in brodo is a Christmas tradition. Families gather to shape the pasta by hand while the broth simmers. “Italians are introduced to broth very early in life,” Klein says. “People connect to it deeply.”
Zoey Xinyi Gong, a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) food therapist, remembers her grandmother’s chicken soup with goji berries. “There’s always a soup for every meal,” Gong says. “A meal is not complete without soup.” In TCM, which dates back to the 2nd century BC, broth-based soups help maintain the body’s yin and yang — a balance essential for health.
Chicken soup, in particular, has long been associated with recovery. Korea’s samgye-tang is eaten during the hottest summer days as a restorative meal. Greece’s avgolemono combines chicken broth with egg, lemon and rice. Mexico’s caldo de pate is a sustaining everyday soup.
Scientific research into broth’s benefits is ongoing. Some studies suggest it may help reduce inflammation and ease cold symptoms. However, many sweeping health claims surrounding bone broth remain contested, and its benefits are often overstated in popular wellness culture.
Gong recalls being shocked when bone broth became a trendy health product in New York. “They were selling it at coffee shops for $10 for little cups,” she says. “But we’ve been drinking that for a very long time in China.”
Whether simmered for survival, wellness or celebration, one thing seems universal: In kitchens everywhere, someone is still tending the pot.
24. What does Dara Klein say about broth in Italian culture?
A. It is a recent cooking invention.
B. It is only served during Christmas.
C. It was first documented in royal courts.
D. It has deep emotional and traditional roots.
25. What can be inferred about soup in Chinese culture from Gong’s words and TCM principles?
A. It is considered essential but primarily for its flavor.
B. It is only consumed when someone is feeling unwell.
C. It is valued as a tool for maintaining physical harmony.
D. It has been replaced by modern medicine in recent years.
26. What is the author’s attitude toward the health claims made in popular wellness culture?
A. Complete rejection. B. Cautious skepticism.
C. Neutral observation. D. Enthusiastic support.
27. Which phrase or idiom most closely reflects the main idea of the passage?
A. There is no place like home.
B. One man’s meat is another man’s poison.
C. The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.
D. A spoonful of comfort — across lands and tongues.
C
A massive concrete-and-glass structure hangs above traffic on Wilshire Boulevard. It is the new home of the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the largest art museum in western America. Its daring architecture is not the only unusual thing about it.
“We’ve given up traditional categories of geography,” says Michael Govan, LACMA’s director. “The idea is to wander.” The museum’s single floor treats all artworks equally: no one movement is presented as more important than another. The museum is loosely organized around oceans to emphasize trade and cultural exchange. The Indian Ocean section, for example, includes Turkish ceramics (瓷器) with blue-and-white flower patterns, influenced by earlier Chinese designs.
LACMA’s break from conventional organization symbolizes a movement towards global galleries as the global economy expands. London’s Tate Modern traditionally centered on Western European art. However, it rearranged its works by theme after 2000 to highlight cultural links. The press hated it. In 2019, the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) rejected fixed long-term displays. Van Gogh’s “Starry Night” will probably always be on view but the neighbouring wall will sometimes hold photography. Such an adaptable approach allows for unexpected encounters. Yet not everyone may appreciate it.
What is a thoughtful contrast to one visitor may be hard to understand for another. At LACMA a giant coffee table shows off ceramics from various eras. Why? Visitors who can scan QR codes will find out; the rest will merely wonder. But if such experiments fail to impress, curators (策展人) can rearrange the art again.
Museums should not be inflexible palaces for artworks, many curators argue: they should reflect their surroundings and times. At the new LACMA, says Govan, “We don’t go into a dark box and somebody tells us what to think.” Rather, it tries to be in conversation with Los Angeles (LA). Architecturally, the museum’s uneven shape and floor-to-ceiling windows frame the palm trees (棕榈树) and hills, putting LA itself on display.
28. What is special about the new LACMA?
A. Displaying artworks flexibly. B. Stressing ocean movement.
C. Treating artworks differently. D. Featuring Chinese designs.
29. Why does the writer mention Tate Modern and MoMA?
A. To compare them with LACMA. B. To highlight an exhibition trend.
C. To promote long-term displays. D. To explain economic globalization.
30. What is a potential problem with the new exhibition style?
A. It limits the variety of artworks. B. It depends on QR code technology.
C. It brings little profit to art galleries. D. It causes confusion for some visitors.
31. What can be inferred about the new museum from the last paragraph?
A. It values architecture over artworks. B. It may raise argument over art styles.
C. It can mirror environments and times. D. It guides how visitors view the art world.
D
Feeling thirsty? Drawing clean water directly from the air is possible, as even extremely dry regions contain some moisture (水汽). Over the past few years, researchers have created sponge-like (海绵状的) materials that make “atmospheric water harvesting” (AWH) possible by absorbing moisture. However, recovering the trapped water usually involves heat and a long wait. Most current systems rely on sunlight to warm these materials. This slow step can take many hours or even stretch into days.
To break this bottleneck, MIT engineers Ikra Shuvo and Svetlana Boriskina identified a much faster method. Instead of heating the water-absorbing materials to release water, they use high-frequency ultrasonic (超声波的) vibrations to shake the moisture loose. These sound waves are precisely tuned to break the weak bonds holding water molecules (分子) in place. This targeted disturbance creates enough force to release the water, shaking it out in small drops.
The new approach elegantly bypasses the materials’ unyielding nature. “Any material that is very good at absorbing water doesn’t want to part with it,” explains Boriskina. “So you normally need to put a lot of energy into pulling water out.” With ultrasound, this process is completely transformed. Lab tests show this method is about 45 times more efficient than traditional heating, freeing the trapped water in mere minutes.
This breakthrough overturns the assumption that AWH systems must absorb moisture overnight and depend on passive sunlight during the day. Powered by a small solar cell, which supplies electricity and also acts as a sensor to detect when the material is wet, the system activates automatically whenever enough water has gathered, allowing the setup to cycle day and night.
The project’s ultimate purpose goes far beyond laboratory efficiency. Boriskina notes it could provide a reliable source of drinking water for remote communities lacking freshwater. As global water crises worsen, this innovation offers a ray of hope, which might be a life-saving solution in the thinnest of air.
32. What does “this bottleneck” mentioned in Paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The lack of water in dry regions.
B. The huge cost of current devices.
C. The slow process of releasing water.
D. The poor performance of the materials.
33. How do the ultrasound waves release water from the materials?
A. By heating the watery materials.
B. By overcoming the trapping force.
C. By breaking water into small drops.
D. By changing the materials’ property.
34. What activates the new device automatically?
A. An electronic sensor. B. A water cycling setup.
C. Insufficient water absorption. D. Continuous sunlight exposure.
35. What does Boriskina highlight regarding the project in the last paragraph?
A. Its further research. B. Its practical potential.
C. Its current limitations. D. Its technical improvements.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头谱续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My best friend, Emily, and I had been inseparable since middle school. We shared everything — lunches, secrets, and dreams for the future. Yet as graduation approached, the mounting stress of exams and college applications began to take its toll on both of us. We studied side by side and promised to get through this together.
The turning point came after the midterm examinations. I had prepared for weeks — sacrificing sleep, skipping social gatherings — yet my score fell far below my expectation. Emily, on the other hand, received one of the highest grades in our class. She tried to be kind about it, never bragging or even mentioning her score. But somehow, that made things worse.
She came to me that afternoon with my favorite snacks. “It’s just one exam,” she said gently. “You’ll do better next time.” I nodded but could not bring myself to look at her. She attempted to lighten the mood with silly jokes, but every word felt like a reminder of the growing gap between us. Then she said, half-jokingly, “Come on, don’t be so negative. It’s not the end of the world.”
Something inside me broke. “Easy for you to say,” I erupted. “You’re not the one who failed.” The moment the words left my mouth, I regretted them. Her face fell. She parted her lips to respond, but no words came. After a long, painful silence, she simply stood up and walked away without a word.
The following days were cold and heavy. We stopped sitting together at lunch. She found a new table, and I did the same. We passed each other in the hallways like strangers. I could tell she was hurting too, but pride kept us both frozen. The silence between us was not empty — it was loaded with guilt, pride, and everything we wished we could say.
It was not until our English teacher assigned us to work together on a final presentation that we were forced to confront each other. When I saw our names paired on the list, I felt a mix of dread and relief. Finally, there was no way out.
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。
Silence fell upon us whew we sat down to prepare at first.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the weight lifted off our shoulders, we threw ourselves into preparing the presentation.
