When patrolling through deep mountains, Li Dongwei, a 39-year-old forest ranger, cannot hide his
excitement when seeing traces of wild Siberian tigers. “It proves that Siberian tigers were here!” said Li, who
lives in the city of Hunchun, a border city in Jilin Province.
Siberian tigers, also known as Amur tigers, mainly live in Russia’s Far East and northeast China. Known as
one of the world’s most endangered species, about 500 Siberian tigers are believed to be living in the wild.
Li joined a local team of wildlife protection volunteers in 2012. He and his teammates marched deep into
the mountains, patrolling on a regular basis to clear traps and install and maintain infrared cameras all year round.
Even freezing cold and harsh natural conditions during the long winter season couldn’t stop them. At the end of
2020, Li became the head of the rangers’ team. So far, Li and his team have dismantled over 10,000 hunting tools
and helped catch poachers many times.
As China-Russia cooperation is vital to the protection of Siberian tigers, Li and his team also exchange
experiences with Russian colleagues. Rangers from both countries compete in the protection of the rare tigers in
its habitat in a bid to improve monitoring and patrolling techniques. In 2019, national parks of China and Russia
— the Northeast China Tiger and Leopard National Park and Russia’s Land of the Leopard National Park signed a
three-year cooperative action plan to strengthen cooperation in the protection of Siberian tigers and Amur
leopards.
According to the latest data from the park’s management bureau, the number of wild Siberian tigers and
Amur leopards inhabiting the park has increased from 27 and 42 to 50 and 60 respectively since 2017
As of now, Li has recruited more than 400 volunteers via the Internet. They brave harsh natural conditions
not only to protect the rare “big cats”, but also to protect the common home of humanity.
全文翻译
在深山里巡逻时，39 岁的护林员李东伟看到野生西伯利亚虎的踪迹时，难掩兴奋之情。“这证明西伯
利亚虎曾在这里出现过！”居住在吉林省边境城市珲春市的李东伟说道。
西伯利亚虎，又称东北虎，主要栖息于俄罗斯远东地区和中国东北地区。作为世界上濒危物种之一，
目前野生西伯利亚虎数量约为500 只。
2012 年，李东伟加入了当地的一支野生动物保护志愿者团队。他和队友们深入山林，定期巡逻，全年
无休地清理捕猎陷阱，并安装和维护红外摄像机。即便漫长冬季的严寒和恶劣的自然条件也无法阻挡他
们。2020 年底，李东伟成为了护林队队长。截至目前，李东伟和他的团队已拆除了一万多件捕猎工具，
并多次协助抓捕偷猎者。
由于中俄合作对西伯利亚虎的保护至关重要，李东伟和他的团队还会与俄罗斯同行交流经验。两国
的护林员在老虎栖息地开展保护竞赛，以提高监测和巡逻技术。2019 年，中俄两国的国家公园——中国
东北虎豹国家公园和俄罗斯豹之乡国家公园签署了一项为期三年的合作行动计划，以加强对西伯利亚虎
和东北豹的保护合作。
据公园管理局的最新数据显示，自2017 年以来，栖息在该公园的野生西伯利亚虎和东北豹的数量分
别从27 只和42 只增加到了50 只和60 只。
截至目前，李东伟已通过互联网招募了400 多名志愿者。他们不畏恶劣的自然条件，不仅是为了保
护这些珍稀的“大猫”，更是为了保护人类的共同家园。
知识拓展
①
西伯利亚虎现状：西伯利亚虎是世界上最大的猫科动物之一，因人类活动、栖息地丧失和偷猎等
原因，曾一度濒临灭绝。目前全球野生西伯利亚虎数量约500 只，主要分布在俄罗斯远东地区和
中国东北地区。
②中俄合作保护：除了2019 年中国东北虎豹国家公园和俄罗斯豹之乡国家公园签署的三年合作行动
计划外，中俄两国还在跨境保护、科研监测、人员交流等方面开展了广泛合作。例如建立跨境保护区域
共同开展野生动物监测和研究等。
③保护成效：近年来，随着中国生态保护力度的不断加大，东北虎豹国家公园内的野生西伯利亚虎和
东北豹数量显著增加。这不仅得益于严格的执法和反偷猎行动，还得益于栖息地的恢复和改善，如植树
造林、减少人类活动干扰等。
④志愿者作用：像李东伟这样的志愿者在西伯利亚虎保护中发挥了重要作用。他们深入山林，清除
捕猎工具、安装监测设备，同时还向当地居民宣传保护野生动物的重要性，提高公众的保护意识。

(2025 年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试(新课标Ⅱ卷)英语真题C)
When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn't have high hopes for it. But the
opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1, 200 orders in June of2020 alone. In the past year, Detrinidad
sent out more than 70, 000 plants. Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an
explosion in the houseplant industry.
“Plants are in fashion right now, ” says Dr. Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the University of Florida.
“People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher life satisfaction rating, ” she says. “Adding more
nature to our environment can change our mood and how we think.” Plants can improve our state of mind in a few
ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol, the stress hormone(激素) in our body.
“Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without
plants, ” says Knuth. “This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there
was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces. ”
If you're among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health benefits of
surrounding yourself with plants, don't beat yourself up if one (or a few!) doesn't make it. “Doctors practice
medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending
to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one, ”
Detrinidad says.
28. How was Detrinidad's business when it started?
A. It faced tough competition.
B. It suffered a great loss.
C. It got lots of financial support.
D. It went surprisingly well.
29. What is one of Knuth's findings about plants?
A. They appeal more to students.
B. They purify the environment.
C. They raise the cortisol level.
D. They enhance productivity.
30. What does Detrinidad try to explain by mentioning doctors and lawyers?
A. The necessity of social skills.
B. The meaning of sustainability.
C. The importance of repeated efforts. D. The value of professional opinions.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Time to Replace Houseplants
B. Plants Boost Your Mood
C. Tips on Choosing Houseplants
D. Plants Brighten Your Home

Passage 1
【环境保护】
（2026 届江苏省南通市一模英语试题）
In the stillness of a winter’s night, a snow leopard was out hunting into the livestock corral ( 畜栏) on
Rinchen Lama’s farm, high in the hills of Dolpa in Nepal. Rinchen remembers the scene the following morning:
“There was wool and blood everywhere. I lost 37 sheep and goats, almost my entire livelihood.” A few months
later, another attack. Rinchen’s horse was killed. Everyone living in Dolpa can tell about the powerful predators
(捕食者). Those farm animals didn’t stand a chance.
The creatures are listed as vulnerable animals by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Their
numbers are thought to be declining partly as the population of their wild prey decreases sharply. Domestic horses
in particular have become an important food source for snow leopards. Farmers who lose livestock sometimes
choose to kill them. “We’ve been told conserving snow leopards is important, but for communities like ours, they
make our life very difficult,” Rinchen says.
Tshiring Lhamu Lama, a Nepali conservationist, is working to change the attitude. Supported by the Snow
Leopard Conservancy, she, along with local herders, designed and built Dolpa’s first leopard-proof corrals. These
fences proved highly effective in preventing night-time killings.
However, according to Ghana Gurung, director of the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) in Nepal, as
long as livestock feed in the snow leopard’s habitat, it will be impossible to stop all predation by these big cats.
Tshiring hopes to source additional funds to make up for continued losses. In 2020, Tshiring established a local
tour operator, Snow leopard Journey. The programme helped locals to set up accommodation for tourists and
trained people to become snow leopard guides.
Overall, in places where snow leopards killed livestock on a day-to-day basis, tourism has developed,
which is bringing in 10 times more than they had earned from raising livestock. Killings of snow leopards have
decreased sharply. “For me, I need to preserve both — snow leopards for the ecosystem, and livelihoods for the
people.” Tshiring says.
1．What can we know about the snow leopard’s attack from paragraph 1?
A．The livestock narrowly escaped it.
B．Rinchen’s family were injured in it.
C．It was a rare occurrence in Dolpa.
D．It caused a heavy economic blow to farmers.
2．What was the farmers’ initial attitude towards snow leopard conservation?
A．Conflicted.
B．Dismissive.
C．Approving.
D．Tolerant.
3．What can be inferred about Snow leopard Journey?
A．It boosted wildlife diversity.
B．It damaged the local ecosystem.
C．It eased the farmer-leopard tension.
D．It disturbed the farmer-nature harmony.
4．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A．Ecotourism: The Only Way Out
B．Leopards: A Threat to Local Farmers
C．Hunting Leopards, Saving Livestock
D．Guarding Leopards, Sustaining livelihoods
Passage 2
（2025-2026 学年度山西临汾市高三年级第一学期期末考试英语试题）
To see Garnett Puett’s latest sculpture at the Hammer Museum, you have to enter a dark room protected by
a series of heavy curtains. Inside, glowing red light lights up a glass cage. Within the cage are three human figures
with a large group of insects crawling over them. The bees move slowly over the faces of the figures. The colony
of bees is so thick in places, it looks like fur (毛皮) growing on the statue — fur that moves.
“Woah.” “I’ve never seen.” Visitors say as they enter the silent room.
Puett has been making his “apisculptures”, using metal, beeswax (蜂蜡) and colonies of live bees, for four
decades now. It’s art with a purpose: Puett wants to remind viewers of the power and creativity of bees, whose
survival is under threat around the world. “It’s sort of subconscious advertising,” Puett said. “Bees are good.”
In the 1980s, when Puett’s bee sculptures first became an art world hit, people just thought he was a guy
playing with bees. Actually, his use of bees came from a deep family tradition. He grew up as a fourth-generation
beekeeper, whose family had worked with bees since the 1700s. His great-grandfather raised queen bees, passing
the business down to his son and grandson. Puett worked on those farms as a teenager, starting with the simplest
tasks. His bee farm experience has resulted in precision in the art he makes with bee colonies.
In the four decades since the eco-artist withdrew somewhat from the art world, he moved to Hawaii, where
he and his family have spent three decades running an organic honey farm. The work is challenging and labor
intensive. That work has put him on the frontlines of dealing with threats to bee populations. Foreign species have
killed numerous bees on his family’s farm, shrinking the number of surviving beehives (蜂巢) from 4,000 to about
2,000 in the past 15 years.
“People used to call me up really mad saying words I can’t repeat if the hives were bothering them,” relates
Puett with a laugh. “But since we lost half the bee population within two years, people are more aware of their
importance and are far more understanding and appreciative. That’s been the one bright side to all this difficulty.”
5．What do visitors think of Puett’s bee sculpture?
A．It is controversial.
B．It is revolutionary.
C．It is innovative.
D．It is educational.
6．Why did Puett make his “apisculptures”?
A．To commercialize bee products.
B．To advocate for bees through art.
C．To offer a shelter for threatened bees.
D．To illustrate a new method of sculpture.
7．What does the author intend to do in paragraph 4?
A．Introduce the background of the bee art. B．Summarize the history of beekeeping.
C．Provide bee-themed activities for kids.
D．Add four generations under one roof.
8．What was the impact of the bee population loss?
A．People became tolerant of Puett.
B．Puett downsized his beekeeping.
C．Puett shifted his focus to his sculptures.
D．Public perception of bees has been improved.

“Research has revealed patients at a hospital who had plants in their rooms reported less pain, lower blood
pressure, less tiredness and less anxiety than patients without plants in their rooms,” says Jenny Seham, PhD in
Bronx, New York.
9 Jamie Keaton Jones, PhD, a psychologist in Washington, D．C．, says that for many people,
tending to plants has surfaced as a hobby that enables them to experience greater comfort, so they often show
plants to their friends on the Facebook or TikTok.
10 Rather than focusing on the past or worrying about the future, plant care helps one focus on the
present moment and provides a feeling of accomplishment.
Like any new skill or hobby, taking care of houseplants comes with a learning curve. 11 Finally,
anyone can be an expert at gardening.
Before you bring home a boatload of botanicals, Jones says it’s not about how many plants you have, but
rather how you interact with them. For instance, are the plants in areas where you spend a lot of time? Do you care
for them daily? If you have a small space, starting out with a lot of plants could be overwhelming. “ 12 It
can engage you by its smell or color that creates a positive mood response with every interaction,” says Seham.
Remember that while indoor gardening can be good for your mental well-being and can help with stress
and relaxation, it’s not a cure-all. 13 But caring for plants can be useful and enjoyable in the long run.
A．Just one plant can make a difference.
B．Just buy as many plants as possible and bring them home.
C．Houseplant collections have become a popular social media trend.
D．Working in an environment with plants can greatly increase productivity.
E．Having a plant doesn’t immediately or directly impact mental health processes.
F．Gardening and caring for plants can help turn people away from negative thoughts.
G．Anyone caring for plants should be patient and allow themselves time to learn the basics.

she leaned into the
blowing wind and followed the bird farther out on the ice, away from the station.
Suddenly, a strong gust knocked her off her feet. Elaine rolled over and over until she found herself lying
on a thin skin of ice above a blue-crevasse. Crunch! She dropped a little lower. If she

the crevasse, where nobody would even find her.

ice like wings, keeping her body

and spreading her weight across the fragile surface. She pushed
forward on her belly,

ahead. The penguin wove a trail between the cracks. Elaine scraped along
behind,

Finally, with one last

of her arms, Elaine crawled after her penguin onto solid, white ice.

Passage 8
（2025-20206 学年临沂一中高三年级上学期期末模拟考英语试题）
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。
I was driving my daughter Lila to her swimming lesson when we spotted a cow wandering down the main
road. A thick rope was tied around its neck, dragging on the pavement behind it. The cow was ambling along in
the middle of the traffic, tail flicking lazily, while a line of cars followed cautiously, their drivers leaning out of
windows to stare. A group of kids on bicycles had gathered at a safe distance, cheering and pointing as the cow
nudged a stop sign with its head.
“Look, mom!” Lila gasped, pressing her face against the car window. “City people are all scared of it! But
you can handle anything, right? You herded cows on grandpa’s farm when you were a kid.”
I smiled, recalling the summer I’d spent on my grandfather’s dairy farm, chasing strays back into the
pasture with a stick and a loud voice. “It’s just a lost cow, sweetie,” I said, “but we need to get you to swim class
first. I’ll check on it after I drop you off.”
We inched past the cow, which lifted its head and let out a low moo as we passed. Lila waved, and the cow
tilted its head as if waving back. I dropped Lila at the pool, promising to be back in an hour, then turned the car
around to find the cow. By the time I got back to the main road, the traffic had cleared, but the cow was still there
— standing in a patch of grass by the sidewalk, chewing on a dandelion. It was a reddish-brown cow, smaller than
the Holsteins on grandpa’s farm, with big, gentle eyes. And there was something about it, a skittishness (难以驾
驭) in its posture, that made it different from the cows I’d known back home. It didn’t seem like a farm cow at all.
