11. Why is the bin “smart”?
A. It can identify and sort waste.
B. It can remind people to sort waste.
C. It can store different kinds of waste.
12. What is the key advantage of the collected data?

C. Monitoring people’s waste‑sorting behavior.
13. What does the man say about the system?
A. It has been widely used.
B. It uses the latest technology.
C. It helps to make a greener city.
【答案】11. A 12. B 13. C
【解析】
【原文】W: How is this new “smart bin” different from a regular recycling bin?
M: It’s not just a container, it’s an AI‑powered sorting system. Inside, a camera identifies the material of each item you throw in — plastic, paper, metal — and then a mechanical arm sorts the item into the correct section.
W: Isn’t that a bit unnecessary? And what if it makes a mistake?
M: Actually, its accuracy rate is over 99%, far better than human sorting. The real benefit is the data. It sends real‑time information to the management company.
W: What’s the point of that data?
M: It allows for super‑efficient collection routes. Instead of sending out trucks on a fixed schedule, they only dispatch them when a specific bin is nearly full. This saves fuel, reduces traffic, and cuts down on carbon emissions significantly.
W: So the intelligence isn’t just for sorting, but for improving the entire collection process.
M: Exactly. It’s a small part of building a smarter, more sustainable city.

M: Glad to be here, thank you.
W: What do you do in your job?
M: I spend a lot of time with sea animals, trying to learn what things they need in the environment. If we know that, we can help them survive in the future.
W: Can you tell us something about the disaster a short time ago?
M: OK. What happened recently was the oil disaster. The birds had oil on their wings, so they couldn’t fly. And they couldn’t eat the fish because the fish were covered with oil.
W: Why did you choose this job? It seems quite tough, especially since you often have to work outdoors in difficult conditions.
M: Well, I was always interested in the world of the ocean and how the plants and animals fit together in their system.
W: Thank you for coming and sharing your story with our audience, Kevin.
M: My pleasure.

Although we thought we were in the clear after a week of dry weather, there’s a huge storm coming in from the east. We should expect heavy snowfall by tomorrow morning. Temperatures should drop below ten degrees, so be careful when going outside. If you have to go out, dress warmly and don’t go too far from home. The road conditions might be poor, so avoid driving if you can. You should stock up on food and other necessary items quickly, just in case it’s difficult to leave your house once the storm hits. It looks like the storm should let up by Thursday night, with light rain expected this weekend. Next week it looks dry, but we won’t be getting a break in the cold weather any time soon. On Monday, it looks like a high of five degrees below zero, and on Tuesday, we’ll have a high of three degrees below zero. Sorry for all the bad news, sports fans! And that’s your weather report. Have a great evening, folks! Stay warm and dry! Now, back to Drew with tonight’s business news.

第一节(共15小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Growing Faster and Better
As farming technology grows increasingly smarter, robots are emerging to advance smart agriculture worldwide. Apart from GEAIR, a domestically-made model, many other innovative robots are under development globally. They operate continuously at a low cost, ensuring full and consistent area coverage.
GEAIR
GEAIR is the world’s first robot capable of completing the entire crop breeding (培植) process. It significantly accelerates and boosts the efficiency of hybrid breeding. Successful hybrid breeding relies on performing repeated cross-pollination (授粉) within a short window before flowers bloom. The team addressed key challenges like navigating foliage and detecting stigmas by training a model with 12,800 images. GEAIR achieves 85.1% accuracy in identifying target structures and completes pollination in just 15 seconds per flower.
Vulcan
This weeding robot adopts bright lights and a fast camera to capture clear images, making sure it spots and removes weeds accurately. It targets weeds without harming crops, using powerful, high-speed actuators for reliable results. Farmers can operate it easily from inside the cab(驾驶室) and make quick changes.
TerraSentia
TerraSentia is a fully automated robot that keeps track of crops during growth. It helps improve farmers’ understanding of plant health and productivity throughout the season and enables farmers to breed crops with better drought resistance and stable production.
Virgo
Virgo is a tomato-harvesting robot. With sensors and cameras as its eyes, and an AI“brain”, it can operate in large commercial greenhouses at any hour, detecting which tomatoes are ripe for picking. Its gentle arm picks tomatoes without injuring plants and poses no safety risk to nearby workers. The robot's“fingers” are made from food-safe,easy-to-clean plastic.
21. Why are speed and accuracy especially important for GEAIR?
A. To lower overall costs. B. To ensure high-quality blooming.
C. To achieve full coverage. D. To meet the pollination requirement.
22. Which robot is specifically described as self-operating?
A. GEAIR. B. Vulcan. C. TerraSentia. D. Virgo.
23. What shared feature do Virgo and Vulcan have?
A. Gentle handling. B. Reliable navigation.
C. Smart appearance. D. Consistent performance.
【答案】21. D 22. C 23. A
【解析】

For Derek Veal, it all started when he was 12 years old, playing in his grandfather’s barn. While exploring it, Veal discovered an old suitcase. Inside were piles of old photos, some of them over 100 years old.
The suitcase belonged to his great-grandmother. She had Alzheimer’s and lived in a nearby nursing home. Veal and his grandfather visited her shortly afterwards with the photos, hoping she could tell them more about them. What happened next changed Veal’s life.
“Everything came back to her when she saw these pictures. She recognized her sisters, her aunts, her grandparents… It was the first time I had seen someone’s lost memories from an old photo returning to them,” Veal said.
The experience made Veal realize the power of old photographs to hold treasured and long-forgotten memories and restore their identity. It never left him. It was the first thing Veal thought about when he found some old family photos for sale at a thrift store two years ago. “I decided to pick a picture out, study it, and then try to get it back to its original family,” he said. Soon, Veal bought more photos and started a Facebook group called Old Photo Project to aid in finding other photos’ families.
Veal is not the only person to take on the hobby of returning lost photographs. Photo enthusiasts around the world have taken on the task of searching for old photographs with the purpose of reuniting them with their families. What makes this hobby so unique is not only how it gives people the chance to help others, but it also brings these enthusiasts a sense of identity. “The more I return memories,” said a photo enthusiast, “the more it feels like I’m supposed to be doing this.”
24. Why did Veal bring the old photos to his great-grandmother?
A. To show his grandfather’s secret suitcase.
B. To help her identify her lost relatives.
C. To decorate her room in the nursing home.
D. To learn about the stories behind the photos.
25. What did Veal do after finding old family photos in a thrift store?
A. He donated photos to local nursing homes.
B. He set up an online group to help return photos.
C. He opened a physical shop to sell old photos.
D. He kept photos to remember his great-grandmother.
26. What can we learn about global photo enthusiasts?
A. They match lost photos with families.
B. They take care of seniors with Alzheimer’s.
C. They earn a lot by collecting old family photos.
D. They create Facebook groups to collect photos.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To advertise Old Photo Project.
B. To explain how to recover memories.
C. To introduce a meaningful hobby.
D. To teach how to find lost family photos.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. C
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了德里克·维尔受老照片唤醒曾祖母记忆的触动,开始收集并归还老照片,全球摄影爱好者也纷纷投身这一有意义的爱好。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Veal and his grandfather visited her shortly afterwards with the photos, hoping she could tell them more about them.(维尔和他的祖父不久后带着这些照片去看望她,希望她能告诉他们更多关于照片的事情)”可知,维尔把老照片带给曾祖母,是为了了解照片背后的故事。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“It was the first thing Veal thought about when he found some old family photos for sale at a thrift store two years ago. “I decided to pick a picture out, study it, and then try to get it back to its original family,” he said. Soon, Veal bought more photos and started a Facebook group called Old Photo Project to aid in finding other photos’ families.(两年前,维尔在一家旧货店发现一些待售的家庭老照片时,这是他首先想到的事。“我决定挑出一张照片,仔细研究它,然后试着把它送回原来的家庭,”他说。很快,维尔买了更多照片,并创建了一个名为“老照片项目”的Facebook群组,以帮助寻找其他照片的家人)”可知,维尔在二手店发现老照片后,创建了一个在线群组来帮助归还照片。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“Photo enthusiasts around the world have taken on the task of searching for old photographs with the purpose of reuniting them with their families.(世界各地的摄影爱好者承担起寻找老照片的任务,目的是让它们与原本的家庭团聚)”可知,全球摄影爱好者做的是将丢失的老照片与它们的家庭匹配并归还。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,结合第五段中“What makes this hobby so unique is not only how it gives people the chance to help others, but it also brings these enthusiasts a sense of identity.(这个爱好之所以如此独特,不仅在于它给了人们帮助他人的机会,还给这些爱好者带来了认同感)”可知,文章先以维尔的经历引出归还老照片这一爱好,再说明其独特意义,故作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍这一有意义的爱好。
C
Insects are disappearing. The world has 25 percent fewer terrestrial insects now than in 1990. This includes those we rely on to pollinate our crops. If we don't solve this problem very soon, some species will disappear.
There are many causes for the insect decline, but insecticides are a major part of the problem. Those used today are longer lasting and up to 10,000 times more toxic than some that were banned in the 1970s. Adding to the problem is that these pesticides are now applied to crops as a precaution and used whether pests are present or not.
Overall, the amount of pesticide applied to the land is decreasing, but this is a grossly misleading statistic. A recent paper found that, between 2005 and 2015, there was a 40 percent reduction in the amount of pesticide applied to crops measured by weight. But because modern insecticides are so much more toxic, the global toxicity of treated land to pollinating insects has more than doubled in the same period.
To the public, one often-touted approach is to use pesticide-free pest control methods. These varied techniques are gathered under the name of integrated pest management (IPM) and have been around for decades. They offer effective crop protection and include methods such as crop rotation and the use of natural predators. But their adoption has been incredibly slow, because spraying pesticides is viewed as an easier option. As a result, IPM methods are unfortunately seldom used today.
Without a quick fix, we argue instead that we need a subtle change in focus, away from killing pests and towards protecting crops. By using the minimal dose we need to protect crops, we could reduce the amount of insecticide to a fraction of what is used today. Farmers would benefit from these changes. They would spend less money on pesticides and improve crop production by keeping healthy pollinator insects about. Reducing insecticide doses won’t solve the insect decline problem, but it is a move that could win us time to make food production more sustainable and cultivate farmlands in a greener way. And that will allow insects to recover.
28. According to the passage, which of the statements is TRUE?
A. The toxicity in insecticides used before persists longer.
B. Toxic-free insecticides are now used to keep pests away.
C. The amount of toxicity used per acre is less than before.
D. Currently-used pesticides are much more toxic than before.
29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word often-touted in paragraph 4?
A. Broadly-publicized. B. Generally-proved.
C. Recently-created. D. Frequently-criticized.
30. What is the best way to treat the insect decline?
A. To research and develop new pesticides. B. To protect crops rather than killing out insects.
C. To raise large-scale natural predators of insects. D. To shift to the IPM pesticide-controlling method.
31. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To propose a practical shift of agricultural practice.
B. To present conflicting evidence about insect decline.
C. To criticize farmers for their over-reliance on spraying.
D. To alert readers to the hidden danger of modern pesticides.
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要分析昆虫锐减的原因并提出转变农业防治重心的应对办法。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Those used today are longer lasting and up to 10,000 times more toxic than some that were banned in the 1970s. (如今使用的那些(杀虫剂)比20世纪70年代被禁用的一些杀虫剂持续时间更长,毒性最高可达其一万倍。)”可知,目前使用的杀虫剂毒性比以前大得多。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“To the public, one often-touted approach is to use pesticide-free pest control methods. (对公众而言,一种often-touted方法是使用无农药的害虫防治方法。)”以及后文“These varied techniques are gathered under the name of integrated pest management (IPM) and have been around for decades. (这些各式各样的技术统称为害虫综合防治(IPM),已经存在数十年了。)”可知,IPM这种无农药害虫防治方法已经存在几十年了,且是面向公众经常被宣传的方法,故“often-touted”意为“被广泛宣传的”,与Broadly-publicized语义一致。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Without a quick fix, we argue instead that we need a subtle change in focus, away from killing pests and towards protecting crops. (在没有快速解决方案的情况下,我们反而认为,我们需要在关注点上做出微妙的转变,从消灭害虫转向保护作物。)”可知,作者认为最好的方法是把重点从杀死害虫转向保护作物。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其根据最后一段中“Without a quick fix, we argue instead that we need a subtle change in focus, away from killing pests and towards protecting crops. (在没有快速解决方案的情况下,我们反而认为,我们需要在关注点上做出微妙的转变,从消灭害虫转向保护作物。)”可知,全文围绕昆虫锐减的现状展开,最终提出调整农业生产重心、减少杀虫剂用量的可行方案,文章旨在提出切实可行的农业生产方式转变的建议。
D
Experts are calling for a global effort to identify “positive tipping points” to accelerate the green transition and have devised a method to find them in a new academic paper. A tipping point is a threshold (临界点) where a small change can cause a significant, often irreversible (不可逆转的), transformation. Positive tipping points in human societies and economies can bring about rapid reductions in emissions and other environmental harm, even as climate breakdown becomes increasingly damaging and dangerous.
Some positive tipping points are already happening — with solar power and electric vehicles rapidly replacing fossil-fuelled alternatives — but many more are needed to ensure a sustainable future.
“The global economy is decarbonising (脱去……的碳) at least five times too slowly to meet the Paris Agreement target of limiting global warming to well below 2℃,” said Professor Tim Lenton, from the Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter. “The challenge now is to identify potential positive tipping points, and the actions that can bring them forward — while avoiding wishful thinking about their existence, or oversimplification of their nature, drivers and impacts.”
The paper sets out a method for identifying positive tipping points, assessing their proximity, identifying the factors that can influence them, and the actions that can lead to them. This includes looking for evidence that a system, or a similar system, has “tipped” in the past.
Another factor is whether there is potential for “self-pushing uptake” of zero-or low-carbon behaviors. For example, as more people buy electric cars, the performance, price and infrastructure improve — making it easier for others to follow, and therefore accelerating the transition.
“We know positive tipping can happen in sectors such as power and road transport,” said Dr Steve Smith, also from the Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter. “In other sectors, there is little sign of approaching tipping points and in a few, such as nuclear power and concrete production, we should not expect there to be tipping points at all.”
32. How does the author present the topic in the first paragraph?
A. By raising a question. B. By defining a key concept.
C. By listing specific data. D. By telling a personal story.
33. What is the current situation of positive tipping points?
A. They remain purely theoretical at present.
B. They are too slow to affect global warming.
C. They have occurred in some areas already.
D. They are happening in all economic sectors.
34. What is Dr Steve’s attitude to the tipping points of nuclear power?
A. Negative. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.
35. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. The Role of Electric Vehicles in Climate Action
B. The Way to Decarbonise the Global Economy Rapidly
C. Challenges of Reaching Environmental Tipping Points
D. Identifying Positive Tipping Points for Green Transition
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍专家提出要寻找“正向临界点”助力绿色转型,阐释其概念、识别方法以及不同领域的现实情况。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“A tipping point is a threshold (临界点) where a small change can cause a significant, often irreversible (不可逆转的), transformation.(临界点是一个阈值,微小变化可引发重大且往往不可逆转的转变。)”可知,作者通过对核心概念下定义的方式引出文章话题。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Some positive tipping points are already happening — with solar power and electric vehicles rapidly replacing fossil‑fuelled alternatives — but many more are needed to ensure a sustainable future.(一些积极的临界点正在发生 —— 太阳能与电动汽车正在迅速取代化石燃料驱动的同类产品 —— 但还需要更多此类临界点,才能保障一个可持续的未来。)”可知,正向临界点已经在部分领域发生。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段中的“In other sectors, there is little sign of approaching tipping points and in a few, such as nuclear power and concrete production, we should not expect there to be tipping points at all.(在其他行业,几乎没有接近临界点的迹象,而在少数领域,例如核能和混凝土生产,我们压根不应该指望会存在临界点。)”可知,史蒂夫博士认为核能领域不会出现临界点,对此持否定态度。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中的“Experts are calling for a global effort to identify “positive tipping points” to accelerate the green transition and have devised a method to find them in a new academic paper.(专家呼吁全球共同努力识别“正向临界点”以加速绿色转型,并在一篇新学术论文中设计出识别该临界点的方法。)”可知,文章围绕识别绿色转型的正向临界点展开,介绍正向临界点的含义、现实案例、识别方式和各行业的不同现状,因此“Identifying Positive Tipping Points for Green Transition(识别绿色转型的积极临界点)”最能概括全文核心,适合作为最佳标题。
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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 选项中有两项为多余选项。
Whether it’s woodworking or sewing, the act of creation can reduce stress and improve your mood. But you don’t have to devote yourself to getting those health benefits. ____36____ And the more you do it, the better. Here is what you can do to kick-start your art practice.
____37____ “Everyone is capable of creative expression,” says Kaimal, a leading researcher in art therapy (疗法). In fact, her research has shown that there are no differences in health outcomes between experienced artists and ordinary people. So, how should you begin?
Start with what you enjoy — maybe something you’ve done before, maybe something you loved as a kid. But keep an open mind. ____38____ Once you have your art materials, here comes the fun part.

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍艺术创作能够缓解压力、改善情绪,并给出普通人开展艺术创作练习的相关建议。
【36题详解】
根据上文“But you don’t have to devote yourself to getting those health benefits. (但你不必全身心投入就能获得这些健康益处)”以及下文“And the more you do it, the better. (你做得越多,效果就越好)”可知,上文表明不用大量投入也能收获创作带来的健康好处,下文强调多进行创作效果更佳。本空应点明艺术创作的核心就是动手去做。B选项“你所要做的就是进行艺术创作”能够承上启下,符合语境。
【37题详解】
根据下文““Everyone is capable of creative expression,” says Kaimal, a leading researcher in art therapy (疗法). In fact, her research has shown that there are no differences in health outcomes between experienced artists and ordinary people. (艺术疗法的顶尖研究者凯马尔说:“每个人都能进行创意表达。事实上,她的研究表明,有经验的艺术家和普通人在健康收益上没有差别)”可知,本段核心观点是创意表达人人可行,专业艺术家和普通人的健康获益没有区别。A选项“你不必成为毕加索”用毕加索举例,形象说明不需要成为知名艺术家,普通人也可以进行艺术创作,总领本段,符合语境。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Start with what you enjoy — maybe something you’ve done before, maybe something you loved as a kid. But keep an open mind. (从你喜欢的事开始,可以是你以前做过的,也可以是你小时候喜爱的,但要保持开放心态)”以及下文“Once you have your art materials, here comes the fun part. (一旦备好了艺术创作材料,有趣的环节就开始了。)”可知,上文建议从自己喜爱的内容入手,同时保持开放心态,下文说明备好材料就可以开启创作。本空应说明凡是能够调动创造性思维的活动都是有益的,呼应开放心态的建议。F选项“任何能激发你创造性思维的事情都对你有益”能够承上启下,符合语境。
【39题详解】
根据上文“You don’t even need to complete a project or like what you’re making to feel those health benefits. (你甚至不需要完成作品或者喜欢自己正在创作的东西,就能收获这些健康益处)”以及下文“ “Sometimes, when I don’t like what I’m making, it frees me up to explore new ideas, because I’ve let go of expectations,” she says. (她说:“有时候,当我不喜欢自己正在创作的作品时,这反而能让我放开手脚去探索新想法,因为我已经放下了期待。”)”可知,上文提出不必喜欢自己的作品也能获益,下文举例说明不喜欢作品反而有助于探索新思路。本空需要过渡句,指代上文这件事,说明其积极意义。C选项“事实上,这可以是一件好事”起到承上启下的过渡作用,符合语境。
【40题详解】
根据上文“Consider making art a healthy habit like exercising. (把艺术创作当成像锻炼一样的健康习惯)”以及下文“Just as you make time to work, exercise and hang out with family and friends, try to designate a special time in your week to devote to your practice. (就像你留出时间工作、锻炼、陪伴亲友一样,试着每周专门留出一段时间投入创作练习)”可知,空前建议把艺术创作变成像锻炼一样的健康习惯,后文提到要专门划出固定时间进行创作,G项“无论如何,不要等创作灵感降临才行动”符合养成固定习惯、主动安排创作的语境。

第二节 (共10小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分15分)
阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Admiring flowers is one of life’s delights. ____56____ the West, where people appreciate flowers at exhibitions, China has a long-standing custom of flower-viewing banquets (赏花宴).
During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the court often organized grand banquets for Jinshi, or Presented Scholars, ____57____ would explore gardens for fresh and rare flowers. In the Song Dynasty, officials held regular gatherings that combined flower admiration with fishing and poetry composition. At these banquets, flowers ____58____ (wear) in the hair as a mark of honor—a custom called “zanhua”. And the scholar Xu Xuan famously used fallen flowers ____59____ (seat) his guests.
The Chinese approach to flower appreciation offers a multi-sensory ____60____ (spirit) experience. People can take pleasure in ____61____ (leisure) observing their shapes, enjoying their smells, listening to the sounds of the garden, and tasting the flower-flavored dishes. Beyond these sensory joys, flowers also carry symbolic meanings, representing ____62____ (virtue) humans should embody. For instance, plum blossoms (梅花) symbolize strength, and peonies (牡丹) wealth, both of which are major themes in traditional Chinese literature.
Today, this practice continues with the ____63____ (emerge) of a new form. Many people, ____64____ (dress) in hanfu, choose to have professional photos taken among the flowers. Whether expressed through ancient poetry ____65____ captured with modern cameras, flower appreciation remains a heartfelt celebration of nature, heritage, and fond memories.
【答案】56. Unlike
57. who 58. were worn
59. to seat
60. spiritual
61. leisurely
62. virtues
63. emergence
64. dressed
65. or
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了中国历史悠久的赏花宴传统、赏花文化的内涵以及其在当代的延续发展。
【56题详解】
考查介词。句意:与西方人喜欢在展览会上欣赏花卉不同,中国有着悠久的赏花宴习俗。空处应用介词,后接名词短语the West作宾语,表示“与……不同”,介词unlike符合句意;句首字母大写。
【57题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在隋唐时期,宫廷经常为进士举办盛大的宴会,这些进士会探访园林寻找新奇罕见的花卉。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是指人的Presented Scholars,关系词在从句中作主语,只能用who引导。
【58题详解】
考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:在这些宴会上,人们把花戴在头上作为荣誉的象征,这个习俗叫做“簪花”。动词wear“戴”作谓语,与主语flowers之间是被动关系,且描述的是隋唐、宋代的过去的习俗,要用一般过去时的被动语态,主语是复数,be动词用worn。
【59题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:学者徐铉曾用落花为宾客铺座,这便成了著名的典故。seat为动词,意为“使就座”,由固定结构use sth. to do sth“用某物做某事”可知,应用其不定式形式作目的状语。
【60题详解】
考查形容词。句意:中国式的赏花带来一种多感官的精神体验。空处应用形容词spiritual“精神的”,修饰名词experience,作定语。
【61题详解】
考查副词。句意:人们可以悠闲地观察它们的形状,享受它们的气味,聆听花园的声音,品尝花香的菜肴,从中获取乐趣。空处应用副词修饰动词observing,作状语;leisurely为副词,意为“悠闲地”,符合句意。
【62题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:在这些感官愉悦之外,花还承载着象征意义,代表着人类应当体现的美德。空处应用名词,作宾语,virtue意为“美德”,是可数名词,要用复数形式virtues,表示泛指。
【63题详解】
考查名词。句意:如今,随着一种新形式的出现,这一传统习俗仍在延续。空处应用名词,作宾语;emergence为名词,意为“出现”,符合句意。
【64题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:很多人身着汉服,选择在花丛中拍摄专业写真。dress为动词,意为“给……穿衣服”,固定短语be dressed in表示“穿着”,故dress与Many people之间为被动关系,应用过去分词形式作后置定语,修饰Many people。
【65题详解】
考查连词。句意:无论是通过古诗表达,还是用现代相机记录,赏花始终是对自然、文化遗产和美好回忆的由衷赞颂。此处是固定搭配whether...or...表示“无论……还是……”,用于连接两个并列成分,表示选择关系。

【答案】Dear Ms. Green,
I’m writing to discuss our Novel Reading Challenge with you.
Now most students find it hard to stick to the activity. The main reasons are that the selected novels are far beyond our current level, and we have no fixed time to share reading thoughts, which makes the process rather boring. To make the activity more engaging, we are thinking of dividing members into different groups based on their reading level, and holding a 10-minute sharing session every week. Would you please give us some practical advice on our improvement plans?
We really hope the activity can work better with your help.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节 (满分25 分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Chesa grew up in a quiet small town in Indiana. For as long as she could remember, Chesa had listened to her parents talk warmly about the Hinara, their hometown far across the ocean. Her parents described lush palm trees, warm tropical wind, tasty local snacks and the peaceful countryside where Grandpa lived. Chesa built a perfect, glowing picture of the Hinara in her mind, dreaming that it would be a wonderful oasis (绿洲) full of joy and beauty.
At last, the whole family booked flights to visit their relatives. Full of eager excitement, Chesa boarded the plane, counting down the hours until she could step into her imagined paradise. But reality hit her hard the moment they arrived. The air was hot and sticky, full of thick moisture. The roads were narrow and bumpy. Local taxis rumbled (发出轰鸣) noisily along the streets, and simple wooden houses lined the roadside instead of the neat modern buildings she had pictured. Grandpa’s small house was plain and narrow, without the comfortable facilities she was used to back in Indiana.
Disappointment washed over Chesa again and again. She refused to try local food, kept quiet during family gatherings, and avoided going out with her grandpa. She thought her dream oasis had turned into a dull, uncomfortable place. Grandpa noticed her low spirits and never blamed her. Every day, he gently invited her to tour around the village, yet Chesa always made up excuses to stay inside alone, wrapped in her negative mood. One afternoon, Chesa sat alone on the back porch, staring blankly at the messy yard, feeling regretful and lonely for being so cold to her kind grandpa. She wondered whether she would ever find the “oasis” she had long dreamed of.
注意:1.写作词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Slowly, Grandpa walked over and invited Chesa for a village tour on his motorcycle.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From that unforgettable ride, Chesa finally understood the true meaning of an oasis.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】【参考范文】
Slowly, Grandpa walked over and invited Chesa for a village tour on his motorcycle. Hesitantly, she agreed, not wanting to hurt his sincere heart. As the old motorcycle moved slowly along the country road, a brand-new world unfolded before her eyes. Golden rice fields waved gently in the breeze, and clear streams ran quietly through the village. Local villagers greeted them warmly with big smiles, filling the peaceful countryside with warmth. Grandpa pointed at every corner of the village, sharing his sweet childhood memories and simple life stories. Listening patiently, Chesa gradually let go of her prejudice and disappointment. She began to feel the unique beauty and tranquility of this land.
From that unforgettable ride, Chesa finally understood the true meaning of an oasis. An oasis was not a perfect, fancy place she had imagined blindly. Instead, it referred to the warmth of family affection and the simple happiness hidden in ordinary life. Ashamed of her previous selfish attitude, Chesa held Grandpa’s hand tightly. In the following days, she actively experienced local life, tasted traditional food and chatted with villagers happily. This precious journey taught her a profound lesson: true beauty lies in love and warmth rather than superficial appearances.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述Chesa从小听父母描绘故乡,在脑海构建了一个美好如绿洲的想象世界。当她终于随家人抵达,却发现环境简陋,和想象差距巨大,满心失望,不愿融入当地生活,对爷爷态度冷淡。爷爷察觉到她低落的情绪,没有责怪她,依旧温柔邀请她逛村庄。一天下午,独自坐在门廊的Chesa满心懊悔,疑惑自己能否找到梦想中的那片“绿洲”。
【详解】1. 段落续写
① 由第一段首句可知,本段要写Chesa答应邀请,骑行途中所见乡村景色、村民的热情,爷爷讲述往事,Chesa放下偏见,感受到这片土地独有的宁静美好。
② 由第二段首句可知,本段揭示主旨:绿洲并非想象中华丽完美的地方,而是亲情的温暖与平凡生活里简单的幸福。描写Chesa内心愧疚,之后主动体验当地生活,感悟真谛 —— 真正的美源于爱与温情,而非外表。
2. 续写线索
应邀坐上爷爷的摩托车 → 沿途欣赏田园风光、感受村民热情 → 聆听爷爷童年故事 → Chesa放下失望与偏见,感受乡土之美 → 领悟绿洲的真正内涵 → 为之前的冷漠感到愧疚 → 主动融入当地生活 → 感悟
3.词类激活
行为类
①展现:unfold/emerge/reveal
②放弃:let go of/abandon
情绪类
①犹豫地:hesitantly/reluctantly
②羞愧的:ashamed/guilty
【点睛】【高分句型1】As the old motorcycle moved slowly along the country road, a brand-new world unfolded before her eyes.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句)
【高分句型2】Ashamed of her previous selfish attitude, Chesa held Grandpa’s hand tightly.(运用了形容词作状语)

It's not just a container. It's an AI powered sorting system. Inside, a camera identifies the material of each item you to win plastic, paper, metal, and then a mechanical ARM sorts the item into the correct section. Isn't that a bit unnecessary? And what if IT makes a mistake? Actually, its accuracy rate is over ninety nine percent, far Better than human sorting. The real benefit is the data. IT sends a real time information to the management company. What's the point of that data? IT allows for super efficient collection routes. Instead of sending out trucks on a fixed schedule, they only dispatch them when a specific bin is nearly full. This saves fuel, reduces traffic and cuts down carbon emissions significantly. So the intelligence isn't just for sorting, but for improving the entire collection process exactly. It's a small part of building a smarter, more sustainable city. How is this news?

Growing Faster and Better
As farming technology grows increasingly smarter, robots are emerging to advance smart agriculture worldwide. Apart from GEAIR, a domestically-made model, many other innovative robots are under development globally. They operate continuously at a low cost, ensuring full and consistent area coverage.
GEAIR
GEAIR is the world’s first robot capable of completing the entire crop breeding (培植) process. It significantly accelerates and boosts the efficiency of hybrid breeding. Successful hybrid breeding relies on performing repeated cross-pollination (授粉) within a short window before flowers bloom. The team addressed key challenges like navigating foliage and detecting stigmas by training a model with 12,800 images. GEAIR achieves 85.1% accuracy in identifying target structures and completes pollination in just 15 seconds per flower.
Vulcan
This weeding robot adopts bright lights and a fast camera to capture clear images, making sure it spots and removes weeds accurately. It targets weeds without harming crops, using powerful, high-speed actuators for reliable results. Farmers can operate it easily from inside the cab(驾驶室) and make quick changes.
TerraSentia
TerraSentia is a fully automated robot that keeps track of crops during growth. It helps improve farmers’ understanding of plant health and productivity throughout the season and enables farmers to breed crops with better drought resistance and stable production.
Virgo
Virgo is a tomato-harvesting robot. With sensors and cameras as its eyes, and an AI“brain”, it can operate in large commercial greenhouses at any hour, detecting which tomatoes are ripe for picking. Its gentle arm picks tomatoes without injuring plants and poses no safety risk to nearby workers. The robot's“fingers” are made from food-safe,easy-to-clean plastic.
21. Why are speed and accuracy especially important for GEAIR?
A. To lower overall costs. B. To ensure high-quality blooming.
C. To achieve full coverage. D. To meet the pollination requirement.
22. Which robot is specifically described as self-operating?
A. GEAIR. B. Vulcan. C. TerraSentia. D. Virgo.
23. What shared feature do Virgo and Vulcan have?
A. Gentle handling. B. Reliable navigation.
C. Smart appearance. D. Consistent performance.
B
For Derek Veal, it all started when he was 12 years old, playing in his grandfather’s barn. While exploring it, Veal discovered an old suitcase. Inside were piles of old photos, some of them over 100 years old.
The suitcase belonged to his great-grandmother. She had Alzheimer’s and lived in a nearby nursing home. Veal and his grandfather visited her shortly afterwards with the photos, hoping she could tell them more about them. What happened next changed Veal’s life.
“Everything came back to her when she saw these pictures. She recognized her sisters, her aunts, her grandparents… It was the first time I had seen someone’s lost memories from an old photo returning to them,” Veal said.
The experience made Veal realize the power of old photographs to hold treasured and long-forgotten memories and restore their identity. It never left him. It was the first thing Veal thought about when he found some old family photos for sale at a thrift store two years ago. “I decided to pick a picture out, study it, and then try to get it back to its original family,” he said. Soon, Veal bought more photos and started a Facebook group called Old Photo Project to aid in finding other photos’ families.
Veal is not the only person to take on the hobby of returning lost photographs. Photo enthusiasts around the world have taken on the task of searching for old photographs with the purpose of reuniting them with their families. What makes this hobby so unique is not only how it gives people the chance to help others, but it also brings these enthusiasts a sense of identity. “The more I return memories,” said a photo enthusiast, “the more it feels like I’m supposed to be doing this.”
24. Why did Veal bring the old photos to his great-grandmother?
A. To show his grandfather’s secret suitcase.
B. To help her identify her lost relatives.
C. To decorate her room in the nursing home.
D. To learn about the stories behind the photos.
25. What did Veal do after finding old family photos in a thrift store?
A. He donated photos to local nursing homes.
B. He set up an online group to help return photos.
C. He opened a physical shop to sell old photos.
D. He kept photos to remember his great-grandmother.
26. What can we learn about global photo enthusiasts?
A. They match lost photos with families.
B. They take care of seniors with Alzheimer’s.
C. They earn a lot by collecting old family photos.
D. They create Facebook groups to collect photos.
27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To advertise Old Photo Project.
B. To explain how to recover memories.
C. To introduce a meaningful hobby.
D. To teach how to find lost family photos.
C
Insects are disappearing. The world has 25 percent fewer terrestrial insects now than in 1990. This includes those we rely on to pollinate our crops. If we don't solve this problem very soon, some species will disappear.
There are many causes for the insect decline, but insecticides are a major part of the problem. Those used today are longer lasting and up to 10,000 times more toxic than some that were banned in the 1970s. Adding to the problem is that these pesticides are now applied to crops as a precaution and used whether pests are present or not.
Overall, the amount of pesticide applied to the land is decreasing, but this is a grossly misleading statistic. A recent paper found that, between 2005 and 2015, there was a 40 percent reduction in the amount of pesticide applied to crops measured by weight. But because modern insecticides are so much more toxic, the global toxicity of treated land to pollinating insects has more than doubled in the same period.
To the public, one often-touted approach is to use pesticide-free pest control methods. These varied techniques are gathered under the name of integrated pest management (IPM) and have been around for decades. They offer effective crop protection and include methods such as crop rotation and the use of natural predators. But their adoption has been incredibly slow, because spraying pesticides is viewed as an easier option. As a result, IPM methods are unfortunately seldom used today.
Without a quick fix, we argue instead that we need a subtle change in focus, away from killing pests and towards protecting crops. By using the minimal dose we need to protect crops, we could reduce the amount of insecticide to a fraction of what is used today. Farmers would benefit from these changes. They would spend less money on pesticides and improve crop production by keeping healthy pollinator insects about. Reducing insecticide doses won’t solve the insect decline problem, but it is a move that could win us time to make food production more sustainable and cultivate farmlands in a greener way. And that will allow insects to recover.
28. According to the passage, which of the statements is TRUE?
A. The toxicity in insecticides used before persists longer.
B. Toxic-free insecticides are now used to keep pests away.
C. The amount of toxicity used per acre is less than before.
D. Currently-used pesticides are much more toxic than before.
29. Which of the following can replace the underlined word often-touted in paragraph 4?
A. Broadly-publicized. B. Generally-proved.
C. Recently-created. D. Frequently-criticized.
30. What is the best way to treat the insect decline?
A. To research and develop new pesticides. B. To protect crops rather than killing out insects.
C. To raise large-scale natural predators of insects. D. To shift to the IPM pesticide-controlling method.
31. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To propose a practical shift of agricultural practice.
B. To present conflicting evidence about insect decline.
C. To criticize farmers for their over-reliance on spraying.
D. To alert readers to the hidden danger of modern pesticides.
D
Experts are calling for a global effort to identify “positive tipping points” to accelerate the green transition and have devised a method to find them in a new academic paper. A tipping point is a threshold (临界点) where a small change can cause a significant, often irreversible (不可逆转的), transformation. Positive tipping points in human societies and economies can bring about rapid reductions in emissions and other environmental harm, even as climate breakdown becomes increasingly damaging and dangerous.
Some positive tipping points are already happening — with solar power and electric vehicles rapidly replacing fossil-fuelled alternatives — but many more are needed to ensure a sustainable future.
“The global economy is decarbonising (脱去……的碳) at least five times too slowly to meet the Paris Agreement target of limiting global warming to well below 2℃,” said Professor Tim Lenton, from the Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter. “The challenge now is to identify potential positive tipping points, and the actions that can bring them forward — while avoiding wishful thinking about their existence, or oversimplification of their nature, drivers and impacts.”
The paper sets out a method for identifying positive tipping points, assessing their proximity, identifying the factors that can influence them, and the actions that can lead to them. This includes looking for evidence that a system, or a similar system, has “tipped” in the past.
Another factor is whether there is potential for “self-pushing uptake” of zero-or low-carbon behaviors. For example, as more people buy electric cars, the performance, price and infrastructure improve — making it easier for others to follow, and therefore accelerating the transition.
“We know positive tipping can happen in sectors such as power and road transport,” said Dr Steve Smith, also from the Global Systems Institute at the University of Exeter. “In other sectors, there is little sign of approaching tipping points and in a few, such as nuclear power and concrete production, we should not expect there to be tipping points at all.”
32. How does the author present the topic in the first paragraph?
A. By raising a question. B. By defining a key concept.
C. By listing specific data. D. By telling a personal story.
33. What is the current situation of positive tipping points?
A. They remain purely theoretical at present.
B. They are too slow to affect global warming.
C. They have occurred in some areas already.
D. They are happening in all economic sectors.
34. What is Dr Steve’s attitude to the tipping points of nuclear power?
A. Negative. B. Cautious. C. Optimistic. D. Indifferent.
35. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. The Role of Electric Vehicles in Climate Action
B. The Way to Decarbonise the Global Economy Rapidly
C. Challenges of Reaching Environmental Tipping Points
D. Identifying Positive Tipping Points for Green Transition

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Chesa grew up in a quiet small town in Indiana. For as long as she could remember, Chesa had listened to her parents talk warmly about the Hinara, their hometown far across the ocean. Her parents described lush palm trees, warm tropical wind, tasty local snacks and the peaceful countryside where Grandpa lived. Chesa built a perfect, glowing picture of the Hinara in her mind, dreaming that it would be a wonderful oasis (绿洲) full of joy and beauty.
At last, the whole family booked flights to visit their relatives. Full of eager excitement, Chesa boarded the plane, counting down the hours until she could step into her imagined paradise. But reality hit her hard the moment they arrived. The air was hot and sticky, full of thick moisture. The roads were narrow and bumpy. Local taxis rumbled (发出轰鸣) noisily along the streets, and simple wooden houses lined the roadside instead of the neat modern buildings she had pictured. Grandpa’s small house was plain and narrow, without the comfortable facilities she was used to back in Indiana.
Disappointment washed over Chesa again and again. She refused to try local food, kept quiet during family gatherings, and avoided going out with her grandpa. She thought her dream oasis had turned into a dull, uncomfortable place. Grandpa noticed her low spirits and never blamed her. Every day, he gently invited her to tour around the village, yet Chesa always made up excuses to stay inside alone, wrapped in her negative mood.
