第二部分阅读理解（共两节，满分50分）

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和D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。

A

We all know that indigenous tribes (部落)in rainforests support relatively few people, but they manage rainforests sustainably. These communities serve as guardians of an ancient wisdom and heritage passed down through generations. They possess a thorough, traditional knowledge of the forest ecosystem, using resources without exhausting them. By contrast, the wealthy landowners, large companies and illegal loggers, in their pursuit of financial gain, have done huge damage. Their deforestation and burning of tropical rainforests are already having severe effects on global climate, biodiversity, human health, and local and regional socioeconomics.

Faced with these accelerating impacts, we urgently need sustainable management of rainforest resources. A multi-faceted approach combining conservation, sustainable use, and international cooperation is essential for rainforest protection.

•Selective logging and replanting - introduced in Malaysia (Figure 1) 一 avoids the completely destructiveclear felling (砍伐).

•Ecotourism, such as in Costa Rica and Malaysia, introduces people to the natural world and provides long-term income to local people andgovernments.

•Conservation and education encourages preservation of rainforests in national parks and nature reserves for scientific research (e. g. the Caura Basin,Venezuela).

•International agreements recognize theglobal

importance of rainforests in combating climate change. They include “debt-fdr-nature-swapping“agreements

Figure 1 Malaysia's Selective Management

under which some donor countries and organisations reduce their debt repayment demands in return for calling a stop to destructive logging. 

The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) promotes sustainably managed forestry through education programmes and its FSC-labelledproducts.

21.What has caused serious damage torainforests?

A.Profit-drivenactivities.B. Traditional farming practices.

C. The decline oflocal economy.D. Deforestation by indigenous tribes.

22.According to Figure 1, how long does forest regeneration take before the nextcycle?

A.3-6months.B. 10-15 years.C. 30-40 years.D. 60-70years.

23.Which practice reflects global collaboration in rainforestmanagement?

A.Selectivelogging.B. Debt-for-nature swaps.

C.Developing ecotourism.D. Establishing naturalparks.

Maya's dreams were not gentle. They were insistent, unfolding in the blank spaces of her accounting textbooks as broken lines of poetry. The future had already been drafted by her parents: a degree in business, a stable job, security. Her writing was a "pleasant hobby：a phrase that made her pen feel like a ghost in her hand.

The conflict was not a single conversation but a quiet, constant pressure. Her father saw her notebooks as evidence of a dangerous, risky world. Her mother worried the stories were an escape from a real life that demanded practical things. Maya complied, studying spreadsheets by day, but at night, she fed a blog under a false name. That was her real voice, a whispered rebellion （反抗）.

Yet, the outside world offered no sanctuary. The comments on her blog felt like an X-ray. The

other writers at the workshops she attended criticized her work with a tone she couldn't bear. Rejections from magazines carried a sharper pain - they weren't just rejecting a hobby, but the refined craftshe'd worked so hard for!

Then, a moment of recognition struck, though it came with its own cost. A literary journal

accepted a story - but requested thorough revisions that would take apart its hopeful ending. For a week, Maya wrestled with it, feeling like refusing. Finally, she rewrote it. The new ending held both love and distance, ambition and sacrifice. It was published.

After that, she began volunteering at a community center, not as a famous author, but as a fellow struggler. She showed teenagers her early drafts, full of red ink and doubt. "The conflict isn't the obstacle to your dream/5 she'd tell them. "It's the material. Don't write a fairytale. Write the storm. And then, write the person learning to stand in the rain.”

Her ink was no longer just for dreams. It was for mapping the risky, beautiful, and completely unique territory of a real life being lived.

24.What is the root of Maya's innerstruggle?

A.Choosing between two stablejobs.

B.Living a double life between work andfemily.

C.Balancing her dream with Emily'sexpectations.

D.Seeking a balance between reality andfantasy.

25.What does the underlined word " complied"in paragraph 2mean?

A.Obeyed.B.Panicked.C. Protested.D. Wondered.

26.What might Maya learn from her submissionexperience?

A.Getting published isn'thard.

B.Standing your ground is avirtue.

C.You have to pay a fee to getrecognized.

D.You have to compromise sometimes tosucceed.

27.What is Maya's advice to theteenagers?

A.Chooseproper material.B. Turn storms intostories.

C. Build castlebeforedreaming.D. Dream big and dare tofail.

In recent years, consumers have increasingly sought “clean-label" foods - products made with natural ingredients. This trend has driven scientists to search for safe, natural preservatives. Theyhaveturnedtheirattentiontoapartofthecashewnut（腰果）thatisoftenthrownaway - theshell. From it, they extract Cashew Nut Shell Liquid （CNSL） and find that it contains special natural substancesthat canfightbacteriaand preventdecay （变质）.While thisdark liquidhasbeenstudied for use in industries like paint and medicine, its potential for preserving food had not been fully explored untilnow.

The scientists designed a careful experiment to test whether CNSL could help preserve beef, one of the most widely consumed meats globally. They applied the liquid to beef samples at different concentrations. Some meat was left untreated as controls. The samples were then stored under different conditions - some at room temperature and others in refrigeration - for two weeks.

During storage, a detailed microbiological evaluation was conducted to quantify total viable （活

菌 ）counts and specific spoilage organisms, including Pseudomonas spp.? Clostridium spp., and

Proteus spp. Physicochemical analyses monitored changes in pH and water activity, while bacteria growth was assessed during storage at room temperature. The scientists discovered that the CNSL-treated meat showed significantly less bacterial growth than untreated meat. The effect was strongest at higher concentrations, with a 2.0% solution providing excellent protection while maintaining meat quality. Even at room temperature, it effectively delayed the meafs souring process and reduced bacteria growth, helping the beef stay fresh-looking longer. 

The researchers note that further studies are needed to understand whether the liquid affects the

taste and texture of the beef, and how it might be combined with modern packaging fbr even better results. Still, this study opens a window into nature's own way of keeping food fresh ——hidden inside a humble cashew shell.

28.Why are scientists studying cashew nutshells?

A.To reduce waste in the foodindustry.

B.To improve the taste of processedfoods.

C.To find natural alternatives to artificialpreservatives.

D.To develop new industrial materials for paint andmedicine.

29.What was the primary focus of the microbiologicalevaluation?

A.The variety ofcashew species.B. The safety of refrigerated beef.

C. The changes in pH andwater activity.D. The effectiveness of CNSL against bacteria.

30.What does the experiment suggest aboutCNSL?

A.It can improve meat quality overtime.

B.It performs best at roomtemperature.

C.It speeds up the meafs souringprocess.

D.Its concentration and the storage life are closelyrelated.

31.What is the author's attitude towards the future ofCNSL?

A.Fullyconvinced.B. Cautiouslyoptimistic.

C. Hesitantanddoubtful.D. Neutral and objective.

Are we about to use Gene Editing Technology to grow wings? Will we all be uploading our brains to the Amazon cloud? If you love science and engineering, sci-fi is the place you turn to to imagine the answers. The problem is that many people are getting the wrong messages from these visions of tomorrow.

There are two main ways that people misread sci-fi. Lefs start with the simpler one, known asthe Torment Nexus Problem. Coined in a 2021 tweet, it refers to a situation in which people read or watch a sci-fi story but focus on its futuristic tech - which, in the original stories, is often the very source of human suffering ——rather than the story 5s actual point. As a result, you get billionaire Peter Thiel co-founding a company called Palantir, named after the fantasy tech of the “seeing stones" inTheLordoftheRingsthat drive their users to evil and madness. Palantir's products have recentlybeen used in airstrikes on Gaza. The author J. R. R. Tolkien would not beamused.

The second major way people misread science fiction could be called the Blueprint Problem. Essentially, it's the mistaken idea that sci-fi provides an exact model for what is coming next and if we copy what happens in sci-fi, we will arrive in a glorious future. The Blueprint Problem inspired a lot of early space programmes in the 1950s, which prioritised putting humans into space rather than exploring it remotely with robotic spacecraft. We were told AI would become our obedient servants

and brilliant experts in so much sci-fi over the past century, making robocops and holographic （全息、的）doctors seem inevitable - but they aren't.

Science fiction isn't a map or a prescription. Instead, it is a world view, a way of approaching problems with the underlying assumption that things don't have to be the way they are. The future isn't predetermined; it's a process, and people are actively shaping it.

32.The mention of ccPalantif, serves to show that.

A.Tolkien's work has inspired real-worldevil

B.name-choosing is vital for a company'simage

C.sci-fi serves as a practical guide forinventors

D.the sci-fi story 5s true message often goes unnoticed

33.What is the "'Blueprint Problem^^ as described in paragraph3?

A.Having robots take overhuman jobs.B. Viewing sci-fi as a perfect future model.

C. Expecting authors to engineer real tech. D. Favoring robots over astronauts in space.

34.What does the author imply in the lastparagraph?

A.Sci-fi exposes the essence ofthings.

B.Sci-fi is a rigid guide for futureplanning.

C.Sci-fi is a mindset for re-examiningreality.

D.Sci-fi predicts specific technologicaloutcomes.

35.What can be a suitable title for thepassage?

A.The Misreading Trapsof Sci-FiB. The Hidden Dangers of Sci-Fi

C. The Moral Dilemmasin Sci-FiD. The Technological Fantasies ofSci-Fi

Street names help us figure out where we are. This can be understood both literally and metaphorically. Some names, like 125th Street, are just descriptions. But often, streets are namedafter people, which places us in a historical or political contexttoo.

Not far from where my brother lives in north London is a street called Kitchener Road. Just behind the lamp post was an old sign, made of thick iron, bearingthe name.36That sign seems to say this person was and still is deserving of recognition. But Kitchener Road reminded me ofBritain's history of colonial （殖民地的）rule, as the Kitchener （1850-1916） was a cruel British military officer across Asia andAfrica.

Saying street names are markers of history attracts two types of criticism. One is that it's nothing more than a storm in a teacup. Street names don'treally matter.37But honoring people responsible for killing through street names preserves a celebratory view of that past and normalises it in daily life. So what should wedo?

38_AnotheroptionistheAmsterdamapproach.There,astreethonoringanti-apartheid

（反种族隔离）leader Albert Luthuli has a sign noting: "Formerly: Louis Botha street,59 named after a prime minister of colonial South Africa.

Where such names remain, people are creating walking tours to provide full context. In Glasgow, a tour was organizedto make people know about the city's role in the enslavement of people.

39It builds thoughtful ways forward locally.

Walking away from Kitchener Road, I thought of a different Kitchener: the legendary Trinidadian calypso musician. Upon arriving in England, he sang London is the Place for Me. If Kitchener Road must keep its name, Td prefer to imagine they honor the “King of Calypso： not the colonial butcher.40

A.Residents rarely notice the streetnames.

B.My view is that such streets berenamed.

C.Perhaps we should consider theevidence.

D.Perhaps that is a take-back we can alladopt.

E.Another, changing these names eraseshistory.

F.This kind of practice is creative response to damaginghistories.

G.To name a street after a person is a way of honoring theirachievements.

On the morning of her seventh birthday, Zahara awoke feeling excited. All she had dreamed of for months was a bicycle of her very own - a red one, swift as the wind. Whenshedashed downstairs and saw the large, ribbon-topped box waiting, her heart soared. Inside gleamed the most perfect bike she could imagine. "It's magnificent!,5 she cried, giving it a test spin around the kitchen tiles.She named it "Comet"（彗星）on the spot.

That very afternoon, the school carnival was buzzing with noise and music. Zahara rode Comet

proudly alongside her best friends, Lily and Chloe. When Lily spotted a stand selling personalized bike license plates, the idea was irresistible. We have to get matching ones!^^ she exclaimed. The three girls hurried over, their coins clutched tightly.

Lily and Chloe found their names in an instant among the neat rows of letters. But Zahara scanned the display again and again. ADAM, AMY, ANNA... her eyes moved down the alphabet, past the ZACKs and ZOEs, but her name was nowhere to be seen. A small knot of disappointment tightened in her stomach.

“Excuse me J she asked the stand attendant, "are there any more plates in the back?” The man shook his head, barely looking up from his newspaper. "Please, could you check? Zahara insisted, her voice hopeful. He sighed. "What's the name?” "Zahara： she said clearly. He frowned. "Come again? Spell it." Z-A-H-A-R-A, she spelled out, each letter feeling heavier than the last.

Tbherhorror,asnicker（暗笑）camefrombehindher.Zac,aboyfromthegradeabove,was watching. "Of course they don't have it,“ he called out. "It's not even a real name! Za-HAIR-uh! Sounds like you've got fuzzy hair!” A few other kids nearby giggled. Zahara?s cheeks flamed, and the world seemed to shrink to the sound of that cruel version of her name. Tears filled her eyes as she fled, leaving the stand and the laughterbehind.

注意： 

（1）续写词数应为150左右；

（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1: The moment she got home, Zahara shouted, "I'm done with being called Zahara!”

Paragraph 2:Her handmade plate on the bike, Zahara left for school early in the morning.
