Dear faculty members, students, and parents:
Good morning! Today， we gather to emphasize our school’s core value — life safety. As the principal， I
firmly believe that safety is far more than a set of rules; it is the foundation for every student’s healthy growth ，
every family’s cherished hope， and every educator’s sacred duty. Without safety as our anchor， dreams of
progress will struggle to take root; with safety， we can nurture resilience， pursue knowledge boldly， and
build lives of purpose.
We have made tangible progress in campus safety over the years， yet challenges linger: traffic risks on
commutes ， occasional peer conflicts that may worsen ， and hidden hazards of inappropriate online
interactions threatening emotional well-being. To address these， the school has strengthened campus security
patrols， updated key safety facilities， and conducted regular emergency drills — fire evacuation exercises and
basic first-aid training — equipping our community with practical skills to respond to risks calmly. But
safeguarding life safety is never the school’s sole task.
Beyond physical safety， we must value mental health — a crucial， often overlooked dimension of life
safety. Amid academic pressure and social changes， some students grapple with anxiety， loneliness， or self-
doubt. Unaddressed， these weaken mental well-being and disrupt life’s stability. Our school has a dedicated
counseling center with professional teachers and hosts regular mental health workshops. We encourage students to
speak openly about troubles， support one another with kindness， and remember seeking help is courage，
not weakness. Mental safety fuels emotional resilience， enabling us to face setbacks with strength and grow into
balanced individuals.
This collective effort requires all stakeholders’ commitment. Teachers should integrate safety education into
daily lessons， guiding students to recognize risks and stay alert to their emotional changes. Parents must fulfill
guardianship responsibilities， conversing openly with children about safety and modeling responsible behavior.
Most importantly， students should cultivate self-protection awareness: abide by school rules， treat peers with
respect， avoid dangerous behaviors， and prioritize physical and mental health. A moment of carelessness may
bring irreversible consequences， but lifelong safety awareness will light your brightest future.
Let us join hands and act today. Let safety become a habit rooted in every heart， a criterion guiding every
decision， and a promise we uphold for one another. Together ， we will build a safe campus where every
student grows freely， pursues dreams boldly， and blooms into wonderful individuals!
Thank you!

亲爱的教职工、同学们和家长们：
早上好！今天，我们齐聚于此，强调我校的核心价值观——生命安全。作为校长，我坚信安全远不
止是一系列规则；它是每个学生健康成长的基石，每个家庭的殷切希望，也是每位教育工作者的神圣职
责。没有安全作为保障，进步的梦想将难以扎根；有了安全，我们才能培养坚韧的品质，勇敢地追求知
识，过上有意义的生活。
多年来，我们在校园安全方面取得了切实的进展，但挑战依然存在：上下学途中的交通风险、偶尔
可能升级的同伴冲突，以及不恰当的网络互动对学生心理健康构成的潜在威胁。为应对这些问题，学校
加强了校园安全巡逻，更新了关键的安全设施，并定期开展应急演练——包括火灾疏散演习和基本急救
培训——让全体师生掌握应对风险的实用技能，能够冷静应对。但保障生命安全绝不仅仅是学校的任务
除了身体安全，我们还必须重视心理健康——这是生命安全中至关重要却常被忽视的一个方面。在学业
压力和社会变革的背景下，一些学生正与焦虑、孤独或自我怀疑作斗争。如果这些问题得不到解决，将
会损害他们的心理健康，扰乱生活的稳定。我校设有专门的心理咨询中心，配备专业教师，并定期举办
心理健康讲座。我们鼓励学生坦诚地倾诉烦恼，友善地相互支持，要记住，寻求帮助是勇敢的表现，而
非软弱的象征。心理健康能增强我们的情绪恢复能力，让我们有力量面对挫折，成长为全面发展的人。
这项集体行动需要所有利益相关者的共同努力。教师应将安全教育融入日常教学，引导学生识别风
险，关注自身情绪变化。家长必须履行监护责任，与孩子坦诚地交流安全问题，并以身作则，树立负责
任的行为榜样。最重要的是，同学们要培养自我保护意识：遵守校规校纪，尊重同学，避免危险行为，
将身心健康放在首位。一时的疏忽可能会带来不可挽回的后果，但终身的安全意识将照亮你们最美好的
未来。
让我们携手共进，从今天做起。让安全成为扎根于每个人心中的习惯，成为指导我们每一个决策的
准则，成为我们对彼此的承诺。让我们共同打造一个安全的校园，让每个学生都能自由成长，勇敢追梦
绽放出属于自己的光彩！ 谢谢大家！
知识拓展

(2025 年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(新课标I 卷)英语真题C)While safety improvements might
have been made to our streets in recent years, transport studies also show declines in pedestrian(行人) mobility,
especially among young children. Many parents say there's too much traffic on the roads for their children to
walk safely to school, so they pack them into the car instead.
Dutch authors Thalia Verkade and Marco te Brömmelstroet are bothered by facts like these. In their new
book Movement: How to Take Back Our Streets and Transform Our Lives, they call for a rethink of our streets
and the role they play in our lives.
Life on city streets started to change decades ago. Whole neighbourhoods were destroyed to make way for
new road networks and kids had to play elsewhere. Some communities fought back. Most famously, a Canadian
journalist who had moved her family to Manhattan in the early 1950s led a campaign to stop the destruction of her
local park. Describing her alarm at its proposed replacement with an expressway, Jane Jacobs called on her
mayor(市长) to champion “New York as a decent place to live, and not just rush through.” Similar campaigns
occurred in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s as well.
Although these campaigns were widespread, the reality is that the majority of the western cities were
completely redesigned around the needs of the motor car. The number of cars on roads has been increasing
rapidly. In Australia we now have over twenty million cars for just over twenty - six million people, among the
highest rate of car ownership in the world.
We invest a lot in roads that help us rush through, but we fail to account for the true costs. Do we really
recognise what it costs us as a society when children can't move safely around our communities? The authors of
Movement have it right: it's time to think differently about that street outside your front door.
28.What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1?
A. Cars often get stuck on the road.
B. Traffic accidents occur frequently.
C. People walk less and drive more.
D. Pedestrians fail to follow the rules.
29. What were the Canadian journalist and other campaigners trying to do?
A. Keep their cities livable.
B. Promote cultural diversity.
C. Help the needy families.
D. Make expressways accessible.
30. What can be inferred about the campaigns in Australia in the late 1960s and 1970s?
A. They boosted the sales of cars.
B. They turned out largely ineffective.
C. They won government support.
D. They advocated building new parks.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Why the Rush? B. What's Next? C. Where to Stay?
D. Who to Blame?

Passage 1
【生命安全】
Aurora Nikula, 5, is having a normal day at her nursery. She is making a cake out of sand and mud, adding in
make-believe carrots, potatoes and meat. Aki Sinkkonen, a scientist, is watching. He’s also very interested in
Aurora’s cake, but for different reasons. “Perfect,” he says, admiring the way she is mixing soil, sand and leaves
and then putting it on her face. “She’s really getting her hands in it.”
To a hygiene-conscious (注重卫生的) kindergarten, this could be a problem, but at Humpula daycare centre in
Helsinki, children are encouraged to increase their contact with the microscopic ( 显微的) biodiversity. This
kindergarten was included in a two-year study looking at how biodiversity enhancements affect the microbial
composition of children’s skin and saliva.
The staff dug up and installed a giant live carpet of forest floor. The plants, dead wood and soil in the daycare
centre were specially selected for their rich micro-biodiversity. Children grow carrots, potatoes and cucumbers,
harvesting and cooking what they plant. When winter approaches, the crops fade — but the outdoor adventures do
not.
A year later, it found that children who were in contact with nature had a lower probability of catching an
illness resulting from disorders in the immune system. The results support the “old friends” hypothesis (假设) that
humans evolved alongside microbes in air, plants and soil. The body can exchange useful microbes with the
natural world to stay healthy. Without contact with these organisms — through soil, plants, and air — immune
function can become overactive, leading to disease.
The kindergartens provide evidence of just how crucial healthy ecosystems are to human health. As
biodiversity, habitats and wild species are lost around the planet, there is huge potential harm for human
wellbeing. Increasing on site biodiversity can be a win-win for children’s health and the environment.
Based on that, the University of Sheffield has done research on installing green barriers around school
playgrounds to prevent air pollution from harming children’s health. Hunter’s Bar infant school in Sheffield
created a 70-metre-long fence of plants that wraps around the playground. Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) concentrations
in the playground were reduced by 13% six months after planting, and further decreases are expected as the fence
matures.
1. What does the underlined word “this” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Guided hands-on practice.
B. Kids’ exposure to dirt and mud.
C. Delicious homemade food for kids.
D. The diversity of species in nurseries.
2. What did the staff at Humpula daycare centre do?
A. Rewild their kindergarten.
B. Grow a forest in the backyard.
C. Expand forest education among kids.
D. Introduce kids to sustainable farming.
3. Why does nature contact reduce people’s chance of getting sick?
A. It uplifts their mood.
B. It enhances co-evolution.
C. It removes harmful microbes.
D. It balances their immune system.
4. Why does the author mention the Sheffield study?
A. To advocate for green schools.
B. To give direction for further research.
C. To promote healthy growth in school children.
D. To show an application of the research finding.
Passage 2
A girl who turns up to school dressed head-to-toe in pink will probably pass unnoticed. If a boy does the
same, he will inevitably face stares. Even the most non-traditional parent would think twice about exposing their
son to that.
Children start paying attention to gender differences much earlier than some parents realize, according to
psychologist Christia Brown, “Society emphasizes that gender is important really early in a kid’s life,” she says.
“We label it a lot in our language — we use gender as nouns all the time. So we frequently say ‘oh, there’s that
girl’ or ‘come on boys, let’s go get in the car.’” Research suggests children’s recognition of gender is more due to
adults pointing it out than any inborn awareness of it.
Gendered toys credit certain types of skills and strengths to one gender or the other. So, when a child only
plays with toys marketed for their gender, they learn a certain set of skills but do not engage as much in other
types of learning. This can lead to imbalanced development in boys and girls as they grow older.
The biggest concern around buying gendered toys is that they can impact how children see themselves.
Gendered representation imposes (强加于) society’s ideas of what they should like and do instead of letting them
choose for themselves what their interests and hobbies are. This can have influence on what that child decides to
study in school and ultimately choose as a career.
Many retailers have made real progress over the last few years, dropping gender labels in stores and online
— a new research shows a 70% decrease in the use of online gender navigation options since 2012 — but there’s
still work to do to challenge the stereotyped (老一套的) ways that toys are often packaged and promoted.
Researchers hope that one day, toys will stop being broken up by gender and will instead be categorized by
type, like puzzle toys, dolls or children’s bikes. There would still be dress-up dolls and monster toy trucks in that
world, but instead of being just pink or blue, they would come in every color of the rainbow. Toy choices should
be based on kids’ personal interests, and not on their gender.
5. What does Christia Brown say about gender differences?
A. They are probably unnoticed.
B. They are socially constructed.
C. They are biologically determined.
D. They are universally acknowledged.
6. What aspects of children are negatively affected by gendered toys?
A. Their academic performance.
B. Their interpersonal relationship.
C. Their behaviours and attitudes.
D. Their physical strength and fitness.
7. What should we put efforts to change?
A. How the toys are marketed.
B. Where the toys are sold.
C. When the toys are rolled out.
D. Who the toys are targeted at.
8. What do the researchers expect of future toys?
A. They should be colourful.
B. They should be gender-neutral.
C. They should cater to kids’ tastes.
D. They should cover wider categories.
Passage 3
阅读七选五
StoryTree is a website for sharing, encouraging, and recording personal and family memories and history. It
can be done online or offline, in real-time, or in your own time, all in a fun and simple new way. ____1____ All
of them work well together to support each other.
____2____ StoryTree is different. It lets you “tap” those photos and stories into your digital journal and
topical memory books. Everyone belonging to your StoryTree can add and read the entries in real time, or at any
time!
Additionally, once a week StoryTree sends everyone in a StoryTree group an interesting prompt (提示) into
their StoryChat as well as to their emails, to help bring back memories and encourage reflection and discussion.
____3____ (But if your brother tells a big fish story, you will surely want to correct it with the true version!)
And if you prefer to save your stories and memories in an additional “private journal”, you can simply create
a synchronized (同步的) personal StoryTree that only you can see. ____4____ In fact, create as many StoryTrees
as you like, and synchronize as many as you like too!
____5____ It’s like having a kind and curious author come to your home whenever you want and have her
interview you to compose your personal or family biography. Who doesn’t want to have a personal history book
written for them? There are over 700 questions in five categories the StoryBook interviewer can ask you, all about
your life and family, at your leisure.
The fourth and final key tool is StoryBox. It can hold all your old photos, videos, memorable documents,
talks, artwork, schoolwork to either store or to sort out later.
A. StoryTree does all of this through four key tools.

Passage 6

Passage 7
I try as much as possible to listen to my parents when they try to teach me something. The 1
(important) lessons I’ve learned from my parents are to be hardworking and honest.
The hard-working characteristic is hard to develop but able to increase the 2 (possible) of
success. Once my father had to ride a tricycle from 6 am to 8 pm to earn money. Why would he do so? He wanted
3 (he) and us to have a better life. 4 (encourage) by my father’s efforts, I decided to work harder at
math 5 I was learning very badly. Thanks to my hard work, I 6 (final) managed to pull my
grade up just as my father tried hard to ride the tricycle.
Honesty is also
7
important character. A person without honesty could lose others’ trust and even
8 (get) unemployed. For example, when my father rode his tricycle to bring people from this place to the
other place, he took the same price 9 the other tricycle men. He once said to me that
1 0
(ask) more than others would make him lose his job. Therefore, whenever I do anything, I wouldn’t lie.

Passage 8
Michael Cabeldu was driving along the dark highway outside Victoria. It was a clear November night, the
stars shining brightly overhead. But as he rounded a sharp bend, thick fog swallowed the road. Before he could
react, his car ran off the road. The vehicle crashed toward a cliff (悬崖) overlooking the ocean.
With a loud crash, the car hit a tree and tipped sideways. Michael, not wearing a seatbelt, was thrown
against the window. Pain shot through his body — his nose was broken, his face bloody. Worse, his bones were
broken in several places.
For hours, Michael couldn’t move in the broken car. When dawn came, he assessed his situation: he was
stuck deep in the woods, invisible from the road above. His phone was useless. No one knew where he was.
Gathering all his strength, he began the painful process of moving. Inch by inch, he dragged himself from
the passenger side to the driver’s seat, where he could rest. Outside, rain poured mercilessly. Days passed.
Michael survived on his few supplies — a lamb dinner, chocolate bars, and a bottle of water. He tried lighting a
fire for rescue signals, but the rain ruined every attempt.
By the fourth day, hope was fading. Then, magically, he heard voices. Two university students, Ethan and
Will, had spotted the car during a biking trip. “It’s probably just abandoned,” Ethan said. But something about the
vehicle’s position — tilted ( 倾斜的) at an odd angle — made Will uneasy. “Let’s take a closer look,” he
suggested.
The hillside was overgrown with bushes that tore at their clothes as they picked their way down. “Hello? Is
anyone there?” About thirty feet from the car, they heard it — a weak but unmistakable cry for help. They climbed
down and forced open the driver’s door, finding Michael shaking and weak.
