It is a national second-class protected animal and it can only be found in China. People also call it “Eight-tone Bird”.

People found it on May 27. Before this, this kind of bird only lived in the mountain areas in southern Anhui, such as Huangshan and Xuancheng. No one found it north of the Yangtze River before. Scientists think there may be a small but stable group living in Yefu Mountain. Besides these two birds, people also found some other rare animals in Lujiang. The great white pelican (白鹈鹕), a national first-class protected animal, spent its winter at Huangpi Lake Wetland. People saw it on Jan 17. It stayed there for more than three months. This is the first time this bird spent winter in Hefei. People also took a rare photo of the Eurasian eagle-owl (雕鸮) in Tangchi Town on July 7.

C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了2026年在庐江县冶父山国家森林公园首次发现的两种鸟类新记录，以及在该地区发现的其他珍稀动物。 【59题详解】 细节理解题。第一段提到“Both of them were seen in Yefu Mountain National Forest Park.”，因此人们是在冶父山国家森林公园发现这两种新记录鸟类的。 【60题详解】 细节理解题。第二段提到“People also call it ‘Eight-tone Bird’.”，因此棕噪鹛也被称为“八音鸟”。 【61题详解】 细节理解题。第三段提到“Before this, this kind of bird only lived in the mountain areas in southern Anhui”，因此小黑领噪鹛以前生活在皖南山区。 【62题详解】 细节理解题。第四段“This is the first time this bird spent winter in Hefei.”提到国家一级保护动物白鹈鹕在黄陂湖湿地越冬，这是该鸟类首次在合肥越冬，其余选项的物种均不符合该描述。 C The 20th Asian Games took place in Aichi-Nagoya, Japan.

Students may go to school for four and a half days every week. They will spend four full days having classes at school, and the other half a day on social practice. Social practice means different kinds of activities outside classrooms. Students can visit museums, help with community work, do farm work or take part in volunteer jobs.

Scientists often learn from nature. By studying shark skin, they turned careful observations (观察) into useful inventions. Shark skin has a special design. It is covered with millions of tiny, hard skin pieces. These pieces look like small teeth and line up from head to tail. Such tiny lines guide water, allowing it to move more smoothly. The same pattern also keeps tiny sea animals from sticking, so the skin stays cleaner. Thanks to this design, sharks can swim faster and use less energy. People used this idea to make better swimsuits. In the 1970s and1980s, researchers such as Dietrich closely studied shark skin. Years later, they worked with the company Speedo and made the Fastskin swimsuit. The suit’s cloth (布料) has tiny, tooth-shaped lines that successfully copy shark skin. At the 2000 Sydney Olympics, swimmers wearing Fastskin won about 83% of the medals. Engineers used the same idea on ships. Sea life can build up on the bottom of ships, slowing them down and wasting fuel (燃料). To fix this, they put special coatings (涂层) with tiny patterns like shark skin on the bottom. With fewer sea creatures sticking there, ships need less cleaning and use less fuel. That saves money and cuts pollution. From a fast fish to faster humans, shark skin shows that nature is a great teacher. When we keep exploring, watch closely, and test our ideas, we can turn wild clues into real inventions. 70. What can we learn about shark skin from paragraph 2? A. It has a common design. B. It slows the shark down. C. It makes water flow faster. D. It is covered by tiny sea animals. 71. Which of the following shows the structure of the text? A. B. C. D. 72. What is the best title for the text? A. Shark Skin Makes Swimmers Faster B. Shark Skin Brings Better Swimsuits C. Shark Skin Inspires Great Inventions D. Shark Skin Solves Environmental Problems 【答案】70. C 71. B 72. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了鲨鱼皮的特殊结构与功能，以及人类受鲨鱼皮启发研发出仿鲨鱼皮泳衣、轮船防附着涂层等实用发明，点明自然是优秀的老师，探索观察自然能将自然的线索转化为真正的发明。 【70题详解】 细节理解题。文章第2段提到“Such tiny lines guide water, allowing it to move more smoothly.”，鲨鱼皮上的特殊细纹可以引导水流，让水流动得更顺畅，减少阻力，从而使鲨鱼游得更快。 【71题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第一段总起，点明研究鲨鱼皮可以催生实用发明；第二段介绍鲨鱼皮的特殊结构与作用原理，第三、四段分别介绍鲨鱼皮结构在泳衣、船舶领域的应用，二者同属仿生应用部分，为并列关系；第五段总结全文，点明自然是人类的老师，观察与探索能带来发明。整体为总-分-总结构，分述部分分为两大板块，第二板块包含三、四两个段落，对应选项B的结构。 【72题详解】 最佳标题题。全文围绕鲨鱼皮的仿生应用展开，介绍了鲨鱼皮的结构启发了多个领域的实用发明，核心是鲨鱼皮为人类带来了诸多发明灵感，因此“Shark Skin Inspires Great Inventions”最适合作为文章标题。 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 F Long long ago, there lived a farmer in a village. He had a big garden with an old apple tree. Many small animals lived in the tree. When the farmer was a little boy, he also spent much of his time playing under the apple tree. In those days, the apple tree gave him many sweet apples. However, as time passed, the large apple tree became old and had few apples. So he decided to cut the tree. But in those little animals’ hearts, the apple tree was their home. When the farmer took out his axe (斧头), all the little animals came and said, “Please don’t cut down the tree. Don’t you remember we played with you under this tree when you were young? This is our home and we have no other places to go.” The farmer didn’t listen to them and still raised his axe. All the little animals cried out. Suddenly, the farmer saw a beehive (蜂窝) full of honey. He took a little and put it in his mouth. The taste of the honey woke up the little boy in him, and it brought back a lot of happy memories to him. Finally, the farmer knew his mistake. The tree was home to many lovely animals and it was not fruitless. With the tree above them, they played happily again. Everything in nature is useful. We should live in peace with each other. 73. Why did the farmer want to cut down the apple tree at first? (不超过15个词) __________________________________________________________________________ 74. What made the farmer recall his happy memories?

(答案不唯一) 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述一位农夫打算砍掉衰老、结果很少的苹果树，树上小动物恳求农夫不要砍树，农夫尝到蜂蜜之后回忆起童年往事，最终认识到错误、保留苹果树的故事。文章告诉我们自然界万物皆有用处，人与万物应当和睦共处。 【73题详解】 根据第二段第一句“However, as time passed, the large apple tree became old and had few apples. So he decided to cut the tree.”，可知苹果树变老，结的苹果很少，所以农夫想要砍掉它。该题答案提取原文信息，使用because进行作答。 【74题详解】 根据第三段第三句“The taste of the honey woke up the little boy in him, and it brought back a lot of happy memories to him.”，可知蜂蜜的滋味勾起了农夫美好的回忆。该题答案直接提取原文信息作答。 【75题详解】 根据第四段“Everything in nature is useful.

Both of them were seen in Yefu Mountain National Forest Park. The first one is the rusty laughingthrush (棕噪鹛). People recorded it on May 20. It is a national second-class protected animal and it can only be found in China. People also call it “Eight-tone Bird”. It was not only the first record in Hefei, but also the first recorded photo of this bird north of the Yangtze River. The second bird is the lesser necklaced laughingthrush (小黑领噪鹛). People found it on May 27. Before this, this kind of bird only lived in the mountain areas in southern Anhui, such as Huangshan and Xuancheng. No one found it north of the Yangtze River before. Scientists think there may be a small but stable group living in Yefu Mountain. Besides these two birds, people also found some other rare animals in Lujiang. The great white pelican (白鹈鹕), a national first-class protected animal, spent its winter at Huangpi Lake Wetland. People saw it on Jan 17. It stayed there for more than three months. This is the first time this bird spent winter in Hefei. People also took a rare photo of the Eurasian eagle-owl (雕鸮) in Tangchi Town on July 7.

D The Ministry of Education recently brought up a new idea for school learning. Students may go to school for four and a half days every week. They will spend four full days having classes at school, and the other half a day on social practice. Social practice means different kinds of activities outside classrooms. Students can visit museums, help with community work, do farm work or take part in volunteer jobs. Teachers say these activities help students learn skills that they cannot get from textbooks. Many students welcome this new plan. Li Hua, a Grade 8 student, says, “I am tired of too many written exercises. I hope to try more real-life tasks. It can help me understand how our society works.” However, some parents feel worried. They wonder whether their kids may fall behind in school lessons. Education experts explain that book knowledge is important, but real experience also matters. The goal is not to cut down study time. It helps students develop many abilities, such as teamwork, communication and problem-solving. Schools will make good plans to balance class learning and social practice. The new idea is still being discussed. More schools will try small tests first. People hope students can grow into all-round young people with both knowledge and practical skills. 66. What is the new idea from the Ministry of Education? A. Students only study four days at home. B. Students study four full school days and take social practice for half a day. C. Students don’t need to do any homework after school. D. Students can visit museums every school day. 67. Which activity belongs to social practice? A. Having math classes in the classroom. B. Doing English exercises. C. Doing volunteer work in the community. D. Reading textbooks at school. 68. Some parents are worried because ________. A. their children may not keep up with school studies B. there are no museums near their homes C. students have no time to rest at weekends D. social practice costs too much money 69. What is the main purpose of the new plan? A. To cut down students’ total study time. B. To help students get all-round development. C. To stop students from doing homework. D. To let parents take the place of teachers. E Sharks are fast hunters, and their skin is a big reason why. Scientists often learn from nature. By studying shark skin, they turned careful observations (观察) into useful inventions. Shark skin has a special design. It is covered with millions of tiny, hard skin pieces. These pieces look like small teeth and line up from head to tail. Such tiny lines guide water, allowing it to move more smoothly. The same pattern also keeps tiny sea animals from sticking, so the skin stays cleaner. Thanks to this design, sharks can swim faster and use less energy. People used this idea to make better swimsuits. In the 1970s and1980s, researchers such as Dietrich closely studied shark skin. Years later, they worked with the company Speedo and made the Fastskin swimsuit. The suit’s cloth (布料) has tiny, tooth-shaped lines that successfully copy shark skin. At the 2000 Sydney Olympics, swimmers wearing Fastskin won about 83% of the medals. Engineers used the same idea on ships. Sea life can build up on the bottom of ships, slowing them down and wasting fuel (燃料). To fix this, they put special coatings (涂层) with tiny patterns like shark skin on the bottom. With fewer sea creatures sticking there, ships need less cleaning and use less fuel. That saves money and cuts pollution. From a fast fish to faster humans, shark skin shows that nature is a great teacher. When we keep exploring, watch closely, and test our ideas, we can turn wild clues into real inventions. 70. What can we learn about shark skin from paragraph 2? A. It has a common design. B. It slows the shark down. C. It makes water flow faster. D. It is covered by tiny sea animals. 71. Which of the following shows the structure of the text? A. B. C. D. 72. What is the best title for the text? A. Shark Skin Makes Swimmers Faster B. Shark Skin Brings Better Swimsuits C. Shark Skin Inspires Great Inventions D. Shark Skin Solves Environmental Problems 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 F Long long ago, there lived a farmer in a village. He had a big garden with an old apple tree. Many small animals lived in the tree. When the farmer was a little boy, he also spent much of his time playing under the apple tree. In those days, the apple tree gave him many sweet apples. However, as time passed, the large apple tree became old and had few apples. So he decided to cut the tree. But in those little animals’ hearts, the apple tree was their home. When the farmer took out his axe (斧头), all the little animals came and said, “Please don’t cut down the tree. Don’t you remember we played with you under this tree when you were young? This is our home and we have no other places to go.” The farmer didn’t listen to them and still raised his axe. All the little animals cried out. Suddenly, the farmer saw a beehive (蜂窝) full of honey. He took a little and put it in his mouth. The taste of the honey woke up the little boy in him, and it brought back a lot of happy memories to him. Finally, the farmer knew his mistake. The tree was home to many lovely animals and it was not fruitless. With the tree above them, they played happily again. Everything in nature is useful. We should live in peace with each other. 73.
