Passage 1
(2026·高三·江苏苏锡常镇四市·二模)
Every morning at 7:15, the flower lady appears at the 86th Street subway entrance. Her name is Maria, though
people usually call her la señora de las rosas. For twenty-three years, rain or shine, she has sold single roses from a
metal cart for $2 each.
I first noticed her during my chaotic freshman year in college. Rushing to catch the train one October day, I
tripped over a loose sidewalk brick, dropping my textbooks everywhere. Before I could react, Maria was beside me,
gathering the pages with hands weathered by decades of work. “Be careful, my kid,” she said softly, pressing a rose
into my palm (手心). “Today needs beauty.”
That rose sat in a coffee cup on my dormitory desk for weeks. When it withered (凋谢), I returned to buy
another — and ended up listening to Maria’s stories between customers. She had immigrated (移居) from Colombia at
sixteen, raised three children as a single mum, and kept this corner colourful with flowers even after the increase in
rent forced her to close her actual shop.
Last winter, Maria disappeared for two weeks. Regular customers whispered worries until a New York Post
reporter discovered the truth: she’d used her savings to pay a neighbor’s medical bill. When she reappeared, wearing
an oversized coat, the line at her cart stretched around the block. Strangers brought bottles of hot chocolate; a ballet
dancer performed pirouettes for her amusement.
On my graduation day, I brought Maria a handmade crown of flowers. She laughed, her wrinkles deepening
like sunlit petals(花瓣), and pinned it above her usual seat.
Now, as a teacher, I tell my students about the woman who turned a simple street corner into a sanctuary of
kindness. For twenty-three years, she didn’t just sell roses — she spread hope, warmth, and the quiet magic of
caring for strangers, proving beauty lives in ordinary hearts.1.What is the function of paragraph 1?
A.To introduce the conflict of the story. B.To highlight the theme of the story.
C.To present the image of the character. D.To describe the status of the character.
2.Why did Maria press a rose into the author’s palm in paragraph 2?
A.To make a friend. B.To offer comfort.
C.To explain beauty. D.To secure a customer.
3.What can be inferred about Maria from paragraph 4?
A.Her family shaped her kindness.
B.Her kindness earned her deep respect.
C.Her actions encouraged more donations.
D.Her reliance on neighbors grew over time.
4.Why are Maria’s wrinkles compared to sunlit petals in paragraph 5?
A.To reflect the hardships of her life.
B.To describe her natural aging.
C.To suggest her love for her flower business.
D.To reveal her shining inner beauty.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.B 4.D
【导语】本文讲述了作者在大学混乱的大一时期偶遇卖花女士 Maria,被她的善良举动温暖,后来逐渐了
解到Maria独自抚养三个孩子、用积蓄为邻居支付医药费等事迹,展现了普通人身上闪耀的人性光辉与善
意的力量。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段内容“Every morning at 7:15, the flower lady appears at the 86th Street subway
entrance. Her name is Maria, though people usually call her la señora de las rosas. For twenty-three years, rain or
shine, she has sold single roses from a metal cart for $2 each.(每天早上7点15分,卖花女士都会出现在 86 街
地铁站口。她叫Maria,不过人们通常称她为“玫瑰夫人”。23 年来,无论刮风下雨,她都推着一辆金属
推车,以每枝 2 美元的价格出售单枝玫瑰。)”可知,第一段内容交代了Maria的出现时间、地点、称呼、
常年卖花的人设,塑造了人物形象。由此推知,该段的功能是向读者呈现这个人物的核心形象。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段内容“Rushing to catch the train one October day, I tripped over a loose sidewalk
brick, dropping my textbooks everywhere. Before I could react, Maria was beside me, gathering the pages with hands
weathered by decades of work.(十月的一天,我赶着去赶火车,被一块松动的人行道砖绊倒了,课本掉得到
处都是。我还没反应过来,Maria就来到我身边,用那双因几十年劳作而饱经风霜的手帮我捡书页。)”以及
她的话语“‘Be careful, my kid,’ she said softly, pressing a rose into my palm. ‘Today needs beauty.’ (“小心点,孩子,”她轻声说,把一朵玫瑰塞进我的手心。“今天需要美好。”)”可知,作者意外摔倒、书本散落,
处境狼狈;Maria主动帮忙捡书、温柔叮嘱、送玫瑰并安慰。由此推知,Maria送玫瑰是为了安慰摔倒受挫
的作者。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段第内容“she’d used her savings to pay a neighbor’s medical bill. When she reappeared,
wearing an oversized coat, the line at her cart stretched around the block. Strangers brought bottles of hot chocolate; a
ballet dancer performed pirouettes for her amusement.(她用积蓄替邻居支付了医疗费。当她穿着一件宽大的外
套再次出现时,她手推车前的队伍排到了街区拐角。陌生人带来了热巧克力;一位芭蕾舞演员为她表演旋
转取乐。)”可知,Maria拿出积蓄帮邻居付医药费,体现了她的善良;她再次出现时,顾客排长队、陌生人
送热巧克力、舞者为她表演,说明她的善良赢得了众人的尊重与爱戴。由此推知,Maria用积蓄帮助邻居
的善举赢得了人们的深深尊重。
4.推理判断题。根据第五段内容“She laughed, her wrinkles deepening like sunlit petals, and pinned it above her
usual seat.(她笑了,皱纹像阳光下的花瓣一样加深,把花冠别在了她常坐的位置上方。)”以及全文最后一句
“For twenty-three years, she didn’t just sell roses-she spread hope, warmth, and the quiet magic of caring for
strangers, proving beauty lives in ordinary hearts.(23年来,她不只是卖玫瑰 —— 她传播希望、温暖和关爱陌
生人的无声魔力,证明了美好存在于平凡的心中。)”可知,花瓣是美好、温柔、美好的象征,前文一直铺
垫Maria善良、温暖、乐于助人的品格。由此推知,把皱纹比作阳光下的花瓣,是用美好意象烘托她闪耀
的内在善良与美好心灵,隐喻Maria闪耀的内在美。
Passage 2
(2026·高三·江苏南京市·二模)
Earlier in his advertising career, McCann global CEO Tyler Turnbull worked for Canadian telecom firm
Rogers. “They were one of those clients that you love or hate,” he recalled. “I loved them because you got to do so
much work — it was stressful and 24/7.”
The office is not the only place where Turnbull appreciates a challenge that pushes his skills to the limit. On
weekends during the winter, you’ll find him on the mountains of Ontario. He skied two days a week and kept up the
hobby all over the world, from France to Italy to Alberta’s Banff National Park.
Now a dad himself, Turnbull has continued the skiing tradition with his kids, 11 and 9, beginning when they
were preschoolers. But sticking with the sport has helped the Turnbull family bond over not just the excitement of
skiing down a mountain, but during the chairlift ride up. “It’s a one-to-one time, no digital devices. We have lots of
good, uninterrupted time.”
On Saturday mornings from November to March, both of his kids attended competitive programs, whichinspired Turnbull and the other parents to hire their own instructor for two-hour Dad Park Lessons. Going strong for
five years now, the dads train in freestyle skiing, which essentially turns a mountain into a skate park: large-scale
jumps, boxes and other obstacles.
While Turnbull believes in the value of being uncomfortable in the service of progress, whether in his career
or on the slopes ( 滑雪坡), the challenge isn’t always about finding a mountain that’s higher or sharper. To him,
there’s value in making the same journey again and again. “If you’re skiing the same run every day for 20 years, it’s
different every time based on the conditions,” he said, a reminder to stay alert and adaptable.
Turnbull also sets a goal for each run by asking himself, “What am I going for?” Whether it’s seeing how fast
he can get to the bottom, fitting in a certain number of turns, which jump to hit, whether to dip into a set of trees —
the terrain is familiar, yet new. “You can make the most of any situation, just by what you’re willing to try and do.”
1.What can be concluded about Turnbull’s work for Rogers?
A.It showed a balanced office culture
B.It allowed flexible working hours.
C.It emphasized physical strength.
D.It required full commitment.
2.What impact does skiing have on Turnbull’s family?
A.It deepens family connection. B.It bridges generation gap.
C.It weakens digital competence. D.It eases preschool anxiety.
3.What does Turnbull value most when skiing the same run repeatedly?
A.Setting a higher career goal.
B.Keeping cautious and flexible.
C.Fueling efficiency in discomfort.
D.Shaping character in new conditions.
4.Which of the following best describes Turnbull?
A.Innovative. B.Learned. C.Reflective. D.Reserved.
【答案】1.D 2.A 3.B 4.C
【导语】文章主要讲述了Turnbull的滑雪爱好及感悟。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段“I loved them because you got to do so much work — it was stressful and 24/7.(我
喜欢它们,因为你有很多工作要做——压力很大,而且要全天候待命)”可知,Turnbull在Rogers的工作需
要全身心投入。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段“But sticking with the sport has helped the Turnbull family bond over not just theexcitement of skiing down a mountain, but during the chairlift ride up. “It’s a one-to-one time, no digital devices. We
have lots of good, uninterrupted time.”(但坚持这项运动不仅帮助Turnbull一家在滑雪下山的兴奋中建立了联系
而且在乘坐缆车上山的过程中也建立了联系。“这是一对一的时间,没有数字设备。我们有很多不受打扰
的美好时光。”)”可知,滑雪加深了Turnbull的家庭联系。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段“While Turnbull believes in the value of being uncomfortable in the service of
progress, whether in his career or on the slopes ( 滑雪坡), the challenge isn’t always about finding a mountain that’s
higher or sharper. To him, there’s value in making the same journey again and again. “If you’re skiing the same run
every day for 20 years, it’s different every time based on the conditions,” he said, a reminder to stay alert and
adaptable.(虽然Turnbull相信,无论是在职业生涯中还是在滑雪坡上,为了进步而感到不舒服是有价值的,
但挑战并不总是要找到一座更高或更陡峭的山。对他来说,一次又一次地走同样的路是有价值的。他说:
“如果你20年来每天都滑同一条雪道,每次的情况都会不同。”这也时刻提醒着他,要时刻保持警觉、
学会随机应变)”可知,Turnbull认为反复滑同一条雪道最重要的是保持谨慎和变通。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Turnbull also sets a goal for each run by asking himself, “What am I going for?”
Whether it’s seeing how fast he can get to the bottom, fitting in a certain number of turns, which jump to hit, whether to
dip into a set of trees — the terrain is familiar, yet new. “You can make the most of any situation, just by what you’re
willing to try and do.”(每次滑行前,Turnbull都会给自己定下一个小目标,问问自己:“这次我要挑战什
么?”无论是比拼冲下山的速度、完成规定次数的转弯、挑战特定跳台,还是滑进林间小道 —— 脚下的
地形虽熟悉,每一次尝试都有全新体验。“只要愿意大胆尝试、勇于行动,你就能在任何境遇中活出最好
的自己。”)”可知,Turnbull善于反思,能从滑雪中得出感悟。
Passage 3
(2026·高三·浙江台州市·二模)
Last summer, I made a rather unconventional decision to run a small bookstore in the bustling food market of
my neighborhood. My friends cast doubt on the plan, for the market was crowded with noisy vendors (小贩) and
filled with pungent food smells. Their concerns proved well-founded on its opening day. Sandwiched between a pork
stall and a tofu shop, my bookstore attracted barely any attention. With few customers stepping in, I felt disheartened
and began to reflect on what went wrong. Never had I anticipated such a frigid beginning.
It didn’t take me long to figure out where the problem lay. I had stocked my shelves with classic novels and
poetry I cherished, yet they failed to meet the needs of local residents. I therefore resolved to make a thorough change.
In place of those books, I displayed home-style cookbooks, stories about street food, and food-related picture books
for children. I sincerely hoped these new books would win over the locals. I also launched a “Book-for-Veggie
Exchange” activity in the store.The new adjustment turned out to be highly successful. Local people soon took to this creative idea. A young
mother came first with a carrot to exchange for a picture book, and before long, my counter was overflowing with
fresh vegetables. The tofu vendor’s daughter, who had watched silently for weeks on end, finally stepped forward to
borrow a comic. Months later, the bookstore became a warm part of market life, with the scent of books blending
gently with the fresh aroma of farm produce.
This experience reshaped my understanding of books. I once believed books could only shine in quiet places,
but now I have seen their real value. It lies in connecting with people’s everyday life: books can blend perfectly into
daily routines and warm our hearts. They become meaningful and touching when combined with the hustle and bustle,
food and laughter of everyday life.
1.What problem did the author face last summer?
A.Doubt among close friends.
B.Strong food smells in the market.
C.Low store traffic in the bookstore.
D.Disturbance from nearby vendors.
2.How did the author attract customers to the bookstore?
A.By selling local vegetables.
B.By offering reader-specific books.
C.By stocking favorite classics.
D.By organizing book-swap activities.
3.What can we learn about the bookstore in paragraph 3?
A.It aimed at a profitable trade in farm produce.
B.It funded the young children in the community.
C.It reflected a harmonious integration into market life.
D.It served as a popular gathering spot in the neighborhood.
4.What has the author learned from opening the bookstore?
A.Better late than never.
B.Books are for life, not for shelves.
C.Think outside the box.
D.Reading connects soul to daily life.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.C 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者去年夏天在热闹的食品市场开了一家小书店,起初因书籍选择不当导致顾客稀少,后来通过调整书籍种类和开展“蔬菜换书”活动,成功吸引了当地居民,使书店成
为市场生活的一部分,并从中领悟到书籍与日常生活紧密相连的真正价值。
【详解】13.细节理解题。根据第一段“Sandwiched between a pork stall and a tofu shop, my bookstore attracted
barely any attention. With few customers stepping in, I felt disheartened and began to reflect on what went wrong. (我的
书店夹在一个猪肉摊和一个豆腐店之间,几乎没有引起任何注意。很少有顾客光顾,我感到很沮丧,开始
反思哪里出了问题。)”可知,作者面临的问题是书店顾客稀少,即客流量低。故选C项。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段“I had stocked my shelves with classic novels and poetry I cherished, yet they failed
to meet the needs of local residents. I therefore resolved to make a thorough change. In place of those books, I
displayed home-style cookbooks, stories about street food, and food-related picture books for children. (我在书架
上摆满了我珍视的经典小说和诗歌,但它们未能满足当地居民的需求。因此,我决定彻底改变。我展示了
家常菜谱、街头美食故事以及与食物相关的儿童图画书,以取代那些书。)”可知,作者通过提供符合当地
居民需求的特定书籍来吸引顾客。故选B项。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段“Months later, the bookstore became a warm part of market life, with the scent of
books blending gently with the fresh aroma of farm produce. (几个月后,书店成为了市场生活中温暖的一部分,
书香与农产品的清新香气轻轻交融。)”可知,书店与市场生活和谐融合,成为市场的一部分。故选C项。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段“I once believed books could only shine in quiet places, but now I have seen their
real value. It lies in connecting with people’s everyday life: books can blend perfectly into daily routines and warm
our hearts. (我曾经认为书籍只能在安静的地方发光,但现在我看到了它们的真正价值。它在于与人们的日
常生活相联系:书籍可以完美地融入日常生活,温暖我们的心。)”可知,作者从开书店的经历中学到了书
籍不仅仅是为了放在书架上,而是为了融入生活,与人们的日常生活紧密相连。故选B项。
Passage 4
(2026·高三·河南开封市·二模)
Growing up in the UK, I was utterly fascinated by the tiny world of insects. At five, my dog wrecked an ant
nest I’d spent weeks building, so I set out to rebuild it better. I carved tiny dwellings for ants from twigs and leaf
fragments, then moved on to fashioning teacups from silver foil for imaginary sprites. When my mother saw my
work, she whispered, “The smaller your creations, the larger your impact will be.”
As I matured, my designs grew fiendishly complex. Sculpting is no casual hobby; I often work 16 - hour
stretches without breaks, and a single piece can take three months to finish. I must hold my breath during the entire
sculpting process to avoid disturbing the fragile forms.
Once, a fly landed on a tiny Cinderella carriage I was carving. Its wingbeat blew the delicate work away, and
it was lost forever. Another time, I accidentally exhaled (呼气) on a minuscule Alice from Alice in Wonderland, andshe vanished. Yet these failures taught me to refine my technique, leading to even more precise work on the second
try.
My micro - sculptures have taken me to extraordinary places. In 2012, I met the Queen, presenting her with a
crown perched on the head of a pin. In 2013, I earned my first Guinness World Record for the smallest sculpture: a
24 - carat gold motorbike that fit inside a human hair. In 2017, I broke my own record with a human fetus sculpture
measuring just 0.078 mm by 0.053 mm.
Although I was diagnosed with autism as an adult, I was once labeled a “failure” by my schoolteachers. Now, I
see my autism as a superpower — it has given me the laser focus to excel in my craft. I run workshops for neurodiverse
kids, sharing my story and helping them build their own tiny worlds.
The micro - kingdom has always been my happy place. I’ve tried larger sculptures, but small is where I shine.
We must learn to value the little things in life, for they can hold immense power.
1.What can we infer from the comment of the author’s mother?
A.Small art was less valuable than large-scale works.
B.The author’s work was too delicate to be practical.
C.The author was encouraged to pursue tiny world passion.
D.The author’s focus on tiny things would limit his success.
2.What does the underlined word “fiendishly” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Extremely. B.Frighteningly. C.Surprisingly. D.Conveniently.
3.What specific achievement did the author accomplish in 2017?
A.Creating a tiny gold motorbike in a hair.
B.Being granted an audience with the Queen.
C.Holding workshops for neurodiverse children.
D.Breaking his own Guinness record with a fetus sculpture.
4.Why does the author view his autism as a “superpower”?
A.To win public sympathy through it.
B.To give intense focus for micro-sculpture.
C.To allow easier communication with others.
D.To make him popular among schoolteachers.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.D 4.B
【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了英国作者自幼痴迷微缩世界,深耕微雕技艺屡创吉尼斯纪录,视自闭症为专
注的超能力,坚信微小事物蕴藏着巨大力量。1.推理判断题。根据第一段中“I carved tiny dwellings for ants from twigs and leaf fragments, then moved on to
fashioning teacups from silver foil for imaginary sprites. When my mother saw my work, she whispered, “The smaller
your creations, the larger your impact will be.”(我用小树枝和树叶碎片为蚂蚁雕刻出小小的住所,然后又用银
箔为想象中的精灵制作茶杯。当我母亲看到我的作品时,她轻声说道:“你的创作越小,产生的影响就越
大。”)”可知,母亲的话是正向的肯定与鼓励,意为“你的创作越微小,你的影响力就会越大”,本质是
鼓励作者坚持对微小世界的热爱。
2.词句猜测题。根据划线单词句中“As I matured, my designs grew…complex.( 随着年龄的增长,我的设计
变得……复杂。)”以及后文“Sculpting is no casual hobby; I often work 16 - hour stretches without breaks, and a
single piece can take three months to finish. I must hold my breath during the entire sculpting process to avoid
disturbing the fragile forms.( 雕刻并非一种随意的爱好;我经常连续工作 16 个小时不休息,而且一件作品
可能需要三个月才能完成。在整个雕刻过程中,我必须屏住呼吸以免破坏这些脆弱的形态。)”可知,后文
补充说明,微雕不是随意的爱好,作者常连续16小时无休创作,单件作品耗时3个月,全程必须屏住呼吸
避免破坏作品,可见设计的复杂程度极高。fiendishly 在此处表程度,意为极其、非常,与 A 选项
extremely“极其地”同义。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中“In 2017, I broke my own record with a human fetus sculpture measuring just
0.078 mm by 0.053 mm.( 2017年,我凭借一个尺寸仅为 0.078 毫米乘 0.053 毫米的人体胎儿雕塑打破了自
己之前创下的纪录。)”可知,作者在2017年用胎儿雕塑打破自己的吉尼斯世界纪录。
4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Now, I see my autism as a superpower — it has given me the laser focus to
excel in my craft. I run workshops for neurodiverse kids, sharing my story and helping them build their own tiny
worlds.( 如今,我将自闭症视为一种超能力——它赋予了我高度专注的能力,使我能够在自己的领域中脱
颖而出。我为神经多样性的孩子举办工作坊,分享我的故事,并帮助他们构建自己的小小世界。)”可推知,
作者将自闭症视为超能力,核心原因是它带来了激光般的极致专注力,让自己能在微雕技艺上做到极致。
Passage 5
(2026·高三·广东江门市·二模)
At 27, as a new mother, I had been wrestling with stress and worry, which led me to explore acupuncture. A
friend’s firm recommendation inspired me to book my first session. I chose Ora, a clinic I had visited during its grand
opening in 2020, drawn to its environment and knowledgeable staff. Though the cost — $130 for an initial 65-minute
session — was high, I viewed it as an investment in my well-being.
Before the appointment, I researched how to prepare: eating a meal to stabilize blood sugar and avoiding
medicine to ensure relaxation. Upon arriving at Ora, I was struck by the calming atmosphere. After a brief consultation
with my acupuncturist, Sian James, who evaluated my lifestyle and health concerns, I changed into a towel and laydown. James checked my tongue, noting its red tip as a sign of stress, and explained how it guided her needle
placement.
She inserted 10-13 thin needles into my forehead, wrists, chest, knees, and feet. The slight pain was tolerable,
and she explained that the selected points were targeted to stimulate my nervous system and release biochemicals
to address stress. Once the needles were in place, I rested for 20-25 minutes in a dimly lit room with calming music.
Initially tense, I eventually relaxed, drifting into a quiet state — deeply calm yet aware of my surroundings.
When James removed the needles, I felt a profound sense of quiet that lasted the entire day. She advised
avoiding tiring activities to maintain the effects. While the calmness faded by Monday morning, the experience was
impactful. Acupuncture forced me to pause, breathe, and disconnect from life’s pressures.
Though not a cure-all, acupuncture is a valuable tool for managing stress. As a person who struggled to unwind,
I found it incredibly effective, and now, I plan to incorporate it into my routine. It’s a reminder to prioritize self-care.
Otherwise, I couldn’t handle my busy work and daily life.
1.Why did the author decide to explore acupuncture?
A.Because of a sports injury.
B.Because of financial investment.
C.Because of emotional anxiety.
D.Because of a firm’s recommendation.
2.What can be inferred about the acupuncturist’s treatment approach?
A.It relied on surroundings over needles.
B.It used finger pressure instead of needles.
C.It combined examination with assessment.
D.It prioritized observation over communication.
3.How did the author feel after having acupuncture?
A.Tired. B.Pressured.
C.Cautious. D.Peaceful.
4.What does the author learn from her experience?
A.Rome wasn’t built in a day.
B.You can’t pour from an empty cup.
C.Busy hands make a happy heart.
D.A calm sea does not make a skilled sailor.
【答案】1.C 2.C 3.D 4.B【导语】文章主要讲述了作者作为新妈妈,因压力和焦虑选择针灸治疗,并详细描述了治疗过程及感受,
最后作者认识到自我照顾的重要性。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中“At 27, as a new mother, I had been wrestling with stress and worry, which led
me to explore acupuncture.(27岁那年,作为一个新妈妈,我一直在与压力和焦虑作斗争,这促使我去尝试针
灸)”可知,作者尝试针灸是因为情感焦虑。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段中“After a brief consultation with my acupuncturist, Sian James, who evaluated my
lifestyle and health concerns, I changed into a towel and lay down. James checked my tongue, noting its red tip as a
sign of stress, and explained how it guided her needle placement.(在与针灸师希恩·詹姆斯进行了短暂的会诊后,
她评估了我的生活方式和健康问题,我换上毛巾躺了下来。詹姆斯检查了我的舌头,注意到舌尖发红是压
力的迹象,并解释了这是如何指导她下针的)”可知,针灸师既检查了作者的身体,又评估了作者的生活方
式和健康问题,由此可推知,针灸师的治疗方法是结合检查和评估的。
3.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“When James removed the needles, I felt a profound sense of quiet that lasted
the entire day.(当詹姆斯取下针时,我感到一种深深的平静,这种感觉持续了一整天)”可知,针灸后作者感
到平静。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It’s a reminder to prioritize self-care. Otherwise, I couldn’t handle my busy
work and daily life.(这提醒我要优先考虑自我照顾。否则,我无法应付繁忙的工作和日常生活)”可知,作者
从自己的经历中学到了自我照顾的重要性,即人得先照顾好自己,才能有余力去处理其他事情,B项
“You can’t pour from an empty cup.(你不能从一个空杯子里倒水)”意指要先关爱自己才能付出,与之相符。
Passage 6
(2026·高三·广东广州市·二模)
There’s always one nonexistent friend in the group chat, loitering in the background, whose contribution to
the chat remains minimal, if not extinct. That friend is me.
As long as I can remember having a phone, I’ve been a terrible replier. The phrase “Sorry I missed this” became
my go-to line. When a new group chat is created, the members will always come to laugh at my inability to respond
to a simple question within hours.
But I’m not terrible at replying to everyone. I pride myself on quick responses to work emails, my manager,
and my mom — she even says, “I feel privileged to be on my daughter’s quick list.” To friends, I say, “Call me
instead.” They know if it’s urgent, I’ll pick up right away. But if I mark a message as “non-urgent,” it’s a different
story.
Group chats are even harder: conversations move so fast that missing just five minutes means I’m behind on
67 messages about parties, movies or dates. Once, I set aside 15 minutes to respond to friends’ texts. But by the time Iresponded, they had messaged back. And I filed those new messages as non-urgent again. All of this was like
message quicksand.
Recently, I asked Billy about my bad texting. He’s that one friend you can always rely on to give you the non-
sugarcoated truth: “You take 3-5 days to reply if we’re lucky.” Ouch — but probably not wrong. Then he added, “But
you always show up, never cancel, and drive 40 minutes to see us.”
Now I think about our group roles — the chatty one, the caller, the non-responder. All contribute and express
love in different ways.
As I write this article, I wonder if my terrible texting could be a sign of my old age? Or I’m just bad at
replying to messages? There’s a lot to think about — and I can promise you this thinking will take my attention away
from the 219 messages I haven’t answered yet.
1.What can be inferred about the author as a responder from paragraphs 2 and 3?
A.She feels stressed to reply. B.She puts the vital first.
C.She prefers calling to texting. D.She fails to reply to friends.
2.What does the underlined word “quicksand” in paragraph 4 refer to?
A.A list often ignored. B.An endless cycle.
C.A game of rapid replies. D.A tool for classification.
3.Why does the author mention Billy in paragraph 5?
A.To praise her friends are tolerant. B.To stress she’s made erforts in texting.
C.To prove her texting habit causes problems. D.To show her texting doesn’t hurt her friendship.
4.What is the author’s tone?
A.Humorous. B.Formal. C.Doubtful. D.Concerned.
【答案】1.B 2.B 3.D 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者回复消息很慢,但只优先回复重要的人,虽不擅长文字聊天却
用行动维系友谊。
1.推理判断题。根据第二段中的“As long as I can remember having a phone, I’ve been a terrible replier.(从我
记得有手机开始,我就一直是个糟糕的回复者。)”和第三段中的“I pride myself on quick responses to work
emails, my manager, and my mom — she even says, “I feel privileged to be on my daughter’s quick list.” To friends, I
say, “Call me instead.” They know if it’s urgent, I’ll pick up right away. But if I mark a message as “non-urgent,”
it’s a different story. (我为自己能快速回复工作邮件、经理和妈妈的消息而感到自豪——她甚至说:“能在我

紧急,我会立刻接听。但如果我把一条消息标记为“不紧急”,那就是另一回事了。)”可知,作者会把重要的、紧急的事情优先处理。故选B项。
2.词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Once, I set aside 15 minutes to respond to friends’texts. But by the time I
responded, they had messaged back. And I filed those new messages as non-urgent again. All of this was like message
quicksand.(有一次,我留出15分钟回复朋友的短信。但等我回复时,他们又发来了消息。而我又把这些新
消息归为不紧急。这一切就像消息 quicksand。)”可知,这是一种回复不完、不断循环的状态,因此
quicksand指的是“一种无休止的循环”。故选B项。
3.推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Then he added, “But you always show up, never cancel, and drive 40 minutes
to see us.”(然后他补充道:“但你总会出现,从不爽约,还会开40分钟的车来看我们。”)”可知,作者提
到Billy是为了表明自己不擅长发消息的习惯并没有伤害到友谊。故选D项。
4.推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段中的“As I write this article, I wonder if my terrible texting could
be a sign of my old age? Or I’m just bad at replying to messages? There’s a lot to think about — and I can promise
you this thinking will take my attention away from the 219 messages I haven’t answered yet.(当我写这篇文章时
我在想我糟糕的短信回复能力是不是我年纪大了的标志?还是我就是不擅长回消息?有很多事情要思考
——而且我可以向你保证,这种思考会让我的注意力从还没回复的219条消息上移开。)”可知,作者用轻
松自嘲的方式讲述自己的情况,语气幽默。故选A项。
Passage 7
(2026·高三·浙江金丽衢十二校·二模)
I was born in 2010 in the countryside, which may be why I always felt a little out of step with the times.
Throughout my childhood, I had never seen tall buildings or had a smartphone. The old computer we had at home
was my only window to the online world, which I began exploring at the age of 8. My parents were busy during the
day, so surfing the internet was a big deal for me. I always turned off the computer before they got home to let it cool
down and hide what I had been doing all day.
I feel like the online vibe was much more inclusive back then. I still remember the friendly debates about the
various adaptations of Legends of the Condor Heroes. Everyone would share their thoughts and reasons. Just the
other day, I saw a similar question on Xiaohongshu, but the discussion quickly turned into heated arguments. Back
then, sharing resources for online novels or gaming strategies was common, but now, such requests can easily trigger
online debates.
My parents loved playing Stephen Chow movies at home, which turned me into a belated fan of these classic
1990s Hong Kong comedies. At the core of his humor lies tragedy, yet his films also taught me simple values: be
brave, be resilient, stay optimistic, and never give up on your dreams. To me, Stephen Chow feels like an old friend
I’ve known for years — a forever-young legend. I wish I had been born earlier, in that golden era.I’d describe myself as a severe nostalgia (怀旧) addict, especially when it comes to 90s architecture. Just
looking at images of those buildings or walking near them brings me a sense of comfort. Though they’ve become
relics of the past, nothing is truly forgotten.
1.What can be inferred about the author’s childhood from the first paragraph?
A.He had no idea about the online world. B.His life kept pace with the times.
C.His parents were too busy to look after him. D.He had limited access to the internet.
2.What does the author mean by saying “the online vibe was much more inclusive back then”?
A.More people were willing to share. B.It is easier to reach an agreement.
C.Different viewpoints could be respected. D.There were more online platforms.
3.What does the author think of Stephen Chow’s films?
A.They only appeal to young people. B.They are tragedies with subtle humor.
C.They are difficult to understand today. D.They combine humor with deep meaning.
4.Which of the following best describes the author’s overall tone in the passage?
A.Hopeful. B.Emotional. C.Humorous. D.Critical.
【答案】1.D 2.C 3.D 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者的童年经历,表达对过去网络氛围、经典影片和 90年代
建筑的怀念之情。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Throughout my childhood, I had never seen tall buildings or had a smartphone.
The old computer we had at home was my only window to the online world, which I began exploring at the age of 8.
My parents were busy during the day, so surfing the internet was a big deal for me. I always turned off the computer
before they got home to let it cool down and hide what I had been doing all day.(在我的整个童年时期,我从未见
过高楼大厦,也没有智能手机。家里那台旧电脑是我通往网络世界的唯一窗口,我从8岁开始探索网络。
父母白天很忙,所以上网对我来说是件大事。我总是在他们回家前关掉电脑,让它冷却下来,掩盖我一整
天都在做的事情)”可知,作者童年接触网络的途径十分有限。故选D项。
2.词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“I still remember the friendly debates about the various adaptations of Legends
of the Condor Heroes. Everyone would share their thoughts and reasons. Just the other day, I saw a similar question
on Xiaohongshu, but the discussion quickly turned into heated arguments.(我还记得关于《射雕英雄传》各改编
版本的友好讨论。每个人都会分享自己的想法和理由。就在前几天,我在小红书上看到一个类似的问题,
但讨论很快变成了激烈的争吵)” 可知,过去网络讨论是友好的,人们可以表达不同观点并互相尊重,而现
在容易变成激烈争吵,由此可推测划线部分的句意为“不同的观点能够得到尊重”。故选C项。
3.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“At the core of his humor lies tragedy, yet his films also taught me simplevalues: be brave, be resilient, stay optimistic, and never give up on your dreams.(他的幽默核心是悲剧,然而他
的电影也教会了我简单的价值观:勇敢、坚韧、保持乐观,永不放弃梦想)”可知,作者认为周星驰的电影
将幽默与深刻内涵相结合。故选D项。
4.推理判断题。根据第四段中的“I’d describe myself as a severe nostalgia (怀旧) addict, especially when it
comes to 90s architecture. Just looking at images of those buildings or walking near them brings me a sense of
comfort.(我会形容自己是一个重度怀旧者,尤其是在90年代的建筑方面。仅仅是看着这些建筑的照片或者
在它们附近行走,就会给我带来一种慰藉感)”以及全文多处抒发怀念、感慨的语句可知,作者整体语气充
满情感。故选B项。
Passage 8
(2026·高三·安徽淮北市·二模)
I will never forget the moment I crossed the finish line of my first marathon in Detroit, Michigan. My legs
were on fire, my lungs felt like they would give out — but I had never felt more alive. To my astonishment, I went
beyond my initial goal of 3 hours and 30 minutes with a final time of 03:15, placing third in my age division.
This stood not only as a personal victory but as a crucial change in the direction of my life.
I’ve been running since I was a young child. It began through the influence of my grandfather, who always
pushed me to “run the hills” and “run the block” by his side. Among his words of wisdom, one instruction he often
repeated was “just put one foot in front of the other.” Simple words, yet they left an indelible impression on me,
one I carried into both my running career and my life.
Running became my healing, my escape, and eventually my passion. I never had a coach or formal training
plan-just a deep-rooted love for the rhythm of the run and an inner guide that always told me to keep going.
I decided to pursue marathon training at 22, though I did not know exactly what to expect. I knew I wanted to
push myself and see what I was capable of. My training was a combination of discipline and insight. I pushed my
body month after month and trusted the years of movement already settled into my muscles. When race day came, I
was nervous but ready.
My first marathon was more than a race-it was a true awakening. Now, I’m building something that helps
others find their own finish-line moment, because I believe running can change your life, just like it changed mine.
1.What do we know about the author’s first marathon?
A.It was a major failure. B.It was an effortless race.
C.It was a regretful event. D.It was a vital experience.

A.Confusing. B.Painful. C.Long-lasting. D.Widespread.3.What does running mean to the author according to the text?
A.A competitive sport requiring professional coaching.
B.A spiritual support and a way to explore her potential.
C.A rigid training plan to build up her muscle memory.
D.A successful pursuit driven by pressure and ambition.
4.What does the author intend to convey through this text?

Passage 9
(2026·高三·福建宁德市·二模)
Chris Steedman majored in law and politics at university. Today, however, he spends his working hours bending
over a piano with a tuning wrench, a special tool for adjusting the strings. “I’m not a concert pianist,” he says, “but
I’ve trained my ears to hear what most people simply walk past.”
Chris runs Legacy Piano Services, tuning and restoring pianos. He has been doing this for nearly a decade
after completing a three-year piano tuning course. What first drew him in was a simple gift — his mother signed him
up for piano lessons one Christmas.
The job demands a surprising set of skills. “You’re working with strings that vibrate (震动) hundreds of times
per second,” Chris explains. “Turn the tuning pin (指针) too far and the note goes flat or sharp. You have to feel it,
not just hear it.” He rarely uses electronic apps, preferring his trained ear, though he keeps a tuning fork for reference.
“On a hot day, the fork runs sharp. On a cold day, it drops. You always have to account for the room.”
Temperature is a constant factor. Before a concert, a piano must be tuned to match the temperature during the
performance. “Once the audience comes in, body heat warms the hall,” Chris says. “Wood expands. If you tune too
early, the piano goes out of tune.”
Of course, not everything goes smoothly. Chris has encountered pianos unplayed for thirty years, with broken
strings and other problems. “That’s where my real passion is — bringing new life to pianos left unattended,” he says.
“Seeing the joy on someone’s face when they hear their grandmother’s old piano sing again — that’s why I do
this.”
1.What is necessary for Chris’s work?
A.Law education. B.Piano talent.
C.Sharp hearing. D.Electronic apps.
2.What is crucial when tuning for a concert?
A.Employing advanced digital devices.B.Using tuning tools unavailable to others.
C.Working in a consistently cool environment.
D.Adjusting for the heat generated by listeners.
3.What brings Chris’s greatest professional satisfaction?
A.Gaining chances to perform in concerts.
B.Cooperating with celebrated musicians.
C.Instructing others in piano maintenance.
D.Restoring forgotten instruments to sound.
4.Which words best describe Chris’s attitude to his job?
A.Careful and devoted. B.Responsible and modest.
C.Serious and curious. D.Confident and disciplined.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.D 4.A
【导语】主要讲述克里斯放弃法律政治专业,从事钢琴调音与修复工作,介绍职业要求、工作讲究以及他
对这份职业的热爱与坚守。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I’m not a concert pianist,” he says, “but I’ve trained my ears to hear what most
people simply walk past.(我不是音乐会钢琴家,但我训练自己的耳朵,能听出大多数人忽略的声音。)”可知,
敏锐的听力是克里斯工作所必需的。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Once the audience comes in, body heat warms the hall,” Chris says. “Wood
expands. If you tune too early, the piano goes out of tune.(一旦观众入场,体热会温暖大厅,木材会膨胀,如果
调音太早,钢琴就会走调。)”可知,为音乐会调音的关键是要根据听众产生的热量做出相应调整。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段中的“That’s where my real passion is — bringing new life to pianos left unattended,”
he says. “Seeing the joy on someone’s face when they hear their grandmother’s old piano sing again — that’s why I
do this.(这是我真正的热情所在——给无人照料的钢琴赋予新生,看到人们听见祖辈旧钢琴重新奏响时脸上
流露的喜悦,这就是我从事这份工作的原因。)”可知,让被遗忘、无人照料的钢琴重新发声,看到人们因
此流露的喜悦,是克里斯获得最大职业满足感的来源。
4.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“You’re working with strings that vibrate (震动) hundreds of times per second,”
Chris explains. “Turn the tuning pin (指针) too far and the note goes flat or sharp. You have to feel it, not just hear
it.” He rarely uses electronic apps, preferring his trained ear, though he keeps a tuning fork for reference. “On a hot
day, the fork runs sharp. On a cold day, it drops. You always have to account for the room.(克里斯解释说:“你
要和每秒震动数百次的琴弦打交道。把调音指针转得太远,音就会偏低或偏高。你必须去感受它,而不仅
仅是听它。”他很少使用电子应用程序,更倾向于用自己受过训练的耳朵,不过他会保留一个音叉作为参考。“天热的时候,音叉的音会偏高。天冷的时候,音会偏低。你总是要考虑到房间的情况。”)”以及第
五段中的““That’s where my real passion is — bringing new life to pianos left unattended,” he says. (他说:
“这才是我真正热爱的事——给那些被闲置冷落的钢琴赋予新生。”)”可知,克里斯工作时注重细节、严
谨细致,同时对这份工作充满热情、全心投入,因此“细心且专注投入”最能描述他对工作的态度。
Passage 10
(2026·高三·山东聊城市·二模)
When I was little, I would sit beside my dad as he painted. He told me that a cow, a meadow, or sunlight alone
were ordinary, but when put together, they created magic.
I understood what he was saying, but I’ve never felt what he was saying until one day when I was up in the
sycamore tree (梧桐树) to secure a kite interlaced in the branches. It was a long way up, but I thought I’d give it a
shot. I started climbing. Then I looked down. And suddenly I got dizzy and weak. I was miles off the ground! But the
kite was still beyond my reach. I caught my breath and forced myself to concentrate on the kite as I climbed up.
When the kite was fully liberated, I needed a minute to rest. That’s when the fear of being up so high began to
lift, and in its place came the most amazing feeling that I was flying. Just soaring above the earth, sailing among the
clouds.
Then I began to notice how wonderful the breeze smelled. I couldn’t stop breathing it in, filling my lungs again
and again with the sweetest smell I’d ever known.
It wasn’t long before I wasn’t afraid of being up so high and found the spot that became my spot. I could sit
there for hours, just looking out at the world. Sunsets were amazing. Some days they’d be purple and pink, some
days they’d be a blazing orange, setting fire to clouds across the horizon.
It was on a day like that when my father’s notion (观念) moved from my head to my heart. The view from my
sycamore was more than rooftops and clouds and wind and colors combined.
And I started marveling (惊奇) at how I was feeling both humble and majestic. How was that possible? How
could I be so full of peace and full of wonder? It was magic.
1.What was the author’s intention of climbing up the sycamore tree?
A.To get the kite home.
B.To prove her courage.
C.To unfasten the kite.
D.To practice climbing skills.
2.How did the author feel about the climbing experience?
A.Breathtaking but exhausting.B.Challenging but rewarding.
C.Strange and unique.
D.Shocking and touching.
3.Why did the author like being up high in the tree?
A.Because the tree gave off a pleasant smell.
B.Because she found inner fulfillment beyond views.
C.Because she could catch the amazing sunsets.
D.Because it could help her focus her mind.
4.What can we learn from the text?
A.Combination towers over its components.
B.Actions speak louder than words.
C.Beautiful things don’t ask for attention.
D.Practice makes perfect.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.B 4.A
【导语】本文主要讲述了作者小时候爬上梧桐树解开风筝的经历,以及这次经历如何让她理解了父亲关于
组合产生魔法的观念。
1.推理判断题。根据第二段“I understood what he was saying, but I’ve never felt what he was saying until one
day when I was up in the sycamore tree (梧桐树) to secure a kite interlaced in the branches. (我明白他在说什么,
但直到有一天,我站在梧桐树上,去取缠在树枝上的风筝,我才真正感受到他的意思。)”可知,作者爬上
梧桐树的目的是解开缠在树枝上的风筝。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段“Then I looked down. And suddenly I got dizzy and weak. (然后我往下看。突然
我感到头晕和虚弱。)”以及第三段“When the kite was fully liberated, I needed a minute to rest. That’s when the
fear of being up so high began to lift, and in its place came the most amazing feeling that I was flying. (当风筝完
全被解开时,我需要休息一分钟。就在那时,对如此高的恐惧开始消散,取而代之的是一种惊人的感觉,
我感觉自己在飞翔。)”可知,这次攀爬经历充满挑战,但作者最终获得了飞翔般的奇妙感受,因此是有挑
战性但有回报的。
3.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The view from my sycamore was more than rooftops and clouds and wind and
colors combined. (从我的梧桐树上看到的景色不仅仅是屋顶、云朵、风和色彩的结合。)”以及最后一段
“And I started marveling (惊奇) at how I was feeling both humble and majestic. How was that possible? How
could I be so full of peace and full of wonder? It was magic. (我开始惊叹于自己既感到谦卑又感到崇高的感觉。
这怎么可能呢?我怎么能如此充满平静和惊奇呢?这是魔法。)”可知,作者喜欢待在树上的高处,是因为她在这里找到了超越景色的内心满足。
4.推理判断题。根据第一段“He told me that a cow, a meadow, or sunlight alone were ordinary, but when put
together, they created magic. (他告诉我,一头牛、一片草地或阳光本身都很普通,但当它们组合在一起时,
就会创造出魔法。)”以及全文内容可知,文章通过作者在梧桐树上的经历,传达了组合的力量大于其组成
部分的观念。
Passage 11
(2026·高三·山东德州市·二模)
At 76, I’d long considered myself too set in my ways to try anything new. My life ran like a well-oiled machine,
scheduled and safe. Every day followed the same simple routine without any unexpected changes. But my
granddaughter’s simple question — “Grandma, when did you last do something that scared you?” — forced me to
step outside my comfort zone and rethink my attitude towards life.
Three old friends and I signed up for a weekend pottery workshop. I’d never touched clay in my life, and the
thought of shaping it with my own trembling hands filled me with unease. On the first morning, our instructor
encouraged us to give up perfection and embrace imperfection. She told us that mistakes in clay could always be
repaired and turned into special beauty. I struggled to centre the clay on the wheel, my hands unskillful and awkward.
More than once, the lump of earth twisted out of shape.
Yet as the hours passed, something shifted. I stopped worrying about making a “good” pot and began to enjoy
the quiet connection with the warm, damp clay. I focused on the gentle movement of my hands and the smooth feeling
under my fingers. When my first rough bowl took shape, I felt a burst of pride I hadn’t known in decades.
On the final day, we were asked to carve a single word into our work that represented what we’d gained. Most
chose “joy” or “courage”. I carved “unfrozen”. To me, it meant letting go of the fear that I was too old to grow and
daring to start a new journey.
Our instructor looked at our creations and smiled. “You haven’t just made pots,” she said. “You’ve rewritten
your own stories.” Those words stayed with me long after the workshop ended. I realized growth doesn’t retire with
age; it only waits for the courage to begin again and discover a better self.
1.What made the author decide to take the pottery workshop?
A.Her friends’ strong persuasion.
B.Her granddaughter’s question.
C.Her dream of making a bowl.
D.Her hope to change her routine.
2.How did the author feel while making her first bowl?A.Anxious initially but proud later.
B.Confident and calm all the way.
C.Curious yet soon uninterested.
D.Frustrated and discouraged halfway.
3.Why did the author carve “unfrozen” into her work?
A.To show her love for pottery.
B.To remember her granddaughter.
C.To express her inner change.
D.To praise the instructor’s help.
4.What can we infer from the text?
A.Growth is still possible for the elderly.
B.Perfection is the key to making good pots.
C.The author was good at shaping clay at first.
D.The instructor taught basic pottery skills quickly.
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.C 4.A

Passage 12
(2026·高三·山东临沂市·二模)
You know the best part about building a bridge? Finding out what makes it collapse.
When I was a ten-year-old boy, I walked across a shaky wooden footbridge over a dried-up riverbed. I wondered
what would make it fall. Eventually, curiosity got the best of me in a hot summer day. Let’s just say it involved
bicycles, rope, and buckets. The affair ended with my dad telling me to go to my room. I was grounded for three
weeks. Once free, my architect father and I found why it cracked and repaired it together.
One day in high school, my geometry teacher showed me a computer program. He had just figured out why it
was broken. “Who broke it?” I asked, without thinking.
“Well, I broke it,” he responded. Looking at my confused expression, he added, “I mean, if you think about it,
anything you’re building from nothing is broken until it works, right?”
After that conversation, I started staying after school to help my teacher break his program, which was supposed
to read 300 homework assignments, grade them, and then show him the lowest grades. Every time he broke the
program, he could figure out a way to teach it a new trick. Testing my teacher’s program was a lot like dragging
buckets filled with sand onto an old, worn-out bridge. This motivated me to start learning programming.
Today, I work in Quality Assurance as a software engineer, waking up every day and finding ways to break
stuff. Once the engineers get a new model up, I create a test user on the computer who tries hundreds of things in
seconds, showing what’s broken and helping decide what to fix. Every now and then, I find a bug that no other person
would bother to exploit.
1.Why did the author destroy the bridge?
A.To test his father’s skills. B.To meet his curiosity.
C.To kill boredom in hot weather. D.To learn how to repair it.
2.What do the teacher’s words mean?
A.Coding is a very hard task. B.Computers are easily damaged.
C.Problems are part of progress. D.What starts from nothing is broken.
3.What drove the author to learn programming?
A.The insight from testing the program.
B.The tricks learned from his classmates.
C.Building a bridge with buckets of sand.D.Helping grade homework for his teacher.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.Building for a Dream B.Breaking for a Living
C.Programming for Future D.Working for Bridging
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A 4.B
【导语】文章主要讲述了作者从童年毁坏木桥的好奇到最终成为软件测试工程师的成长经历。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“I wondered what would make it fall. Eventually, curiosity got the best of me in
a hot summer day.(我想知道什么会让它倒塌。最终,在一个炎热的夏日,好奇心占了上风)”可知,作者破坏
桥是为了满足好奇心。
2.推理判断题。根据第四段老师的话“Looking at my confused expression, he added, “I mean, if you think about
it, anything you’re building from nothing is broken until it works, right?”(看着我困惑的表情,他又说道:“我
的意思是,你想想看,任何从无到有的创造,在成功运转之前都是不完美的(坏掉的),对吧?”)”可知,
老师认为“问题”是“从无到有”过程中的必然部分,解决问题才能推进进步。
3.细节理解题。根据第五段中“Testing my teacher’s program was a lot like dragging buckets filled with sand
onto an old, worn-out bridge. This motivated me to start learning programming.(测试老师的程序很像拖着装满沙
子的桶走上破旧木桥。这激励我开始学编程)”可知,测试程序的经历让作者领悟到“破坏即改进”的逻辑,

Passage 1
(2026·高三·浙江新阵地教育联盟·二模)
It begins with a steady buzz, echoing through the towering forests of Alaska. It’s a signal, but not one to be
alarmed by. It’s less “Duck and cover,” more “Come and get it!”
So you step outside your house, where there are few roads and fewer neighbors, and see it. A single-engine
plane flies low, just a few dozen feet above the ground. The plane’s door whips open, and a black package is thrownout, plummeting (速降) to earth with a yellow tail hanging behind.
Congratulations, you’ve just been turkey bombed!
The “bomb” is a 15-pound frozen turkey stuffed into a trash bag, tied with yellow caution tape for easy
visibility. Since 2021, Alaska native Esther Keim has been dropping them from the air to remote Alaskans who might
otherwise be eating squirrel, moose or Spam for Thanksgiving dinner.
Thanksgiving falls at a tricky time of the year in this part of the country. It’s a time when rivers, which often
serve as highways in Alaska’s remote areas, are too frozen for boats to travel but not frozen enough for cars. Their
only option for reaching “civilization” is seven hours on a snowmobile. Or, if you’re a pilot like Keim, you can take
to the air.
Keim began her turkey-bombing flights after visiting her family in Skwentna, an isolated village. A neighbor
mentioned how a squirrel he hunted barely fed his family of four. This reminded Keim of her childhood, when a
family friend would drop a turkey — and sometimes a box of candy inside the package just for her — from his
plane to her family every year. “I am gonna drop turkeys to remote Alaskans without road access,” says Keim. “It
wouldn’t be a big deal, but it’d bring me a lot of joy to bless other people like we were blessed.”
Now Keim is working to turn this personal effort into a non- profit called the Alaska Turkey Drop Project. The
project has received enough donations from some individuals and local businesses, with others donating their time
and goods. Every year, that noisy plane soaring through Alaska’s sky brings not just turkeys, but a heartwarming
reminder of connection in the wilderness.
1.What can be learned about the “bomb”?
A.It’s a dangerous explosive. B.It’s sent to Alaskans for Christmas.
C.It’s a frozen turkey with yellow tape. D.It’s dropped from a high- flying plane.
2.Why is Thanksgiving a challenging time in remote Alaska?
A.Pilots avoid snowy flights. B.Snowmobiles are only for short trips.
C.All roads are blocked by snow. D.Half- frozen rivers are unfit for boats or cars.
3.What inspired Keim to start the “bombing” flights?
A.A demand for her nonprofit project. B.A suggestion from her family.
C.Neighbor’s hardship and childhood favor. D.Hunting squirrels with neighbors.
4.Which of the following best describes Keim?
A.Caring and inquiring. B.Sympathetic and innovative.
C.Decisive and tolerant. D.Adventurous and ambitious.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.C 4.B【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Esther Keim为偏远阿拉斯加人空投火鸡的善举。
1.细节理解题。根据第四段中“The “bomb” is a 15-pound frozen turkey stuffed into a trash bag, tied with yellow
caution tape for easy visibility. (这个“炸弹”是一只15磅重的冷冻火鸡,塞进一个垃圾袋里,用黄色警示胶
带绑着,以便于看到。)”可知,这个“炸弹”是带有黄色胶带的冷冻火鸡。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第五段中“Thanksgiving falls at a tricky time of the year in this part of the country. It’s a
time when rivers, which often serve as highways in Alaska’s remote areas, are too frozen for boats to travel but not
frozen enough for cars. (感恩节在这个国家的这个地区是一个棘手的时间。在这个时候,河流经常作为阿拉
斯加偏远地区的高速公路,河水结冰太厚,船无法航行,但结冰又不够厚,汽车无法通行。)”可知,感恩
节在阿拉斯加偏远地区是一个具有挑战性的时间,是因为半结冰的河流不适合船或汽车通行。故选D。
3.细节理解题。根据第六段中“Keim began her turkey- bombing flights after visiting her family in Skwentna,
an isolated village. A neighbor mentioned how a squirrel he hunted barely fed his family of four. This reminded Keim
of her childhood, when a family friend would drop a turkey — and sometimes a box of candy inside the package just
for her — from his plane to her family every year. (Keim在访问了Skwentna这个偏僻的村庄后,开始了她的火
鸡空投飞行。一位邻居提到,他猎杀的一只松鼠几乎养活不了他一家四口。这让 Keim想起了她的童年,
那时每年都会有家人朋友从飞机上给她家扔下一只火鸡,有时还会在包裹里放一盒糖果给她。)”可知,邻
居的困难和童年的喜爱激励Keim开始了“轰炸”飞行。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中““I am gonna drop turkeys to remote Alaskans without road access,” says
Keim. “It wouldn’t be a big deal, but it’d bring me a lot of joy to bless other people like we were blessed.” (“我要
给那些没有公路的偏远阿拉斯加人空投火鸡,”Keim说,“这不是什么大事,但能像别人曾经祝福我们
那样去祝福别人,会给我带来很多快乐。”)”及最后一段中“Now Keim is working to turn this personal effort
into a non- profit called the Alaska Turkey Drop Project. The project has received enough donations from some
individuals and local businesses, with others donating their time and goods. (现在,Keim正努力将这项个人努力
转变为一个名为“阿拉斯加火鸡空投项目”的非营利组织。该项目已经从一些个人和当地企业那里获得了
足够的捐款,还有一些人捐赠了他们的时间和物品。)”可知,Keim是一个富有同情心且具有创新精神的人,
她通过自己的行动帮助偏远地区的阿拉斯加人,并努力将这个个人项目发展成为一个非营利组织。故选
B。
Passage 2
(2026·高三·安徽蚌埠市·二模)
Shetara Sims had weathered some tough years. In 2012, her eldest daughter suffered severe injuries during an
argument in Kansas City, Missouri. Last year, the single mother lost her job in the hard times. She had only $7 in her
pocket as she headed into the grocery store one day last July with her 12-year-old daughter, Rakiya Edmondson.And then luck finally turned Sims’ way. She and her daughter found a dollar bill in the parking lot. Maybe this
was their day, they told each other. So they bought a lottery ticket (彩票) — and won $100.
But before they could spend their windfall, Rakiya had an idea. The news in Kansas City that week had been
filled with stories about a police officer, Tyler Moss, who had been shot in the head in the line of duty. He was in
critical condition. Rakiya and her mother had never forgotten how kind the police had been after their own family
member was attacked. “The detectives were really there for us,” Sims says. “They came to see my kids. They were
fathers, therapists (治疗师). They were everything.” Rakiya wanted to give their lottery winnings to Officer Moss’s
family. Her mom readily agreed.
On July 10, Sims called the police and made an anonymous (匿名的) donation. Moved by her generous act,
the officers did what they do best — they tracked Sims down. When she explained the family’s motivation, the
officers could hardly believe it. “With her current financial hardship, we encouraged her to keep the money,” the
department later explained. “She refused, saying the officer’s family needed it and police needed to know they were
supported.”
By then, that feeling of support was mutual. The police set up a GoFundMe page for Sims and her daughter,
whom they named “The Woman with the Heart of Gold.” Their goal was $10,000. By January 11, 2021, they had
raised $165,405. Even better: Officer Moss, who had a 1 percent chance of survival, is out of the hospital and
recovering.
1.What does the underlined word “windfall” in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Devoted effort.B.Poor times. C.Unexpected money. D.Lucky days.
2.What made the Sims decide to donate the lottery winnings?
A.Desire for public praise. B.Gratitude for past police kindness.
C.Hope for financial return. D.Sympathy for Officer Moss’s family.
3.Why did the police track down Sims after the donation?
A.To return the money. B.To help the family.
C.To report her in public. D.To find the truth.
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.A Lottery Win That Brought Mutual Warmth
B.A Police Officer Who Got Support from a Stranger
C.A Poor Family Whose Life Was Changed by Faith
D.A Kind Police Team That Helped a Single Mother
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.D 4.A【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了 Shetara Sims母女捡到钱买彩票中奖后,将奖金匿名捐给受
伤警察家庭,后获警方帮助的暖心故事。
1.词句猜测题。根据第二段中“So they bought a lottery ticket (彩票) — and won $100.(于是她们买了一张彩
票,中了100美元。)”、“But before they could spend their windfall, Rakiya had an idea.(但是还没等她们花掉
她们的windfall,Rakiya就有了一个想法。)”可知,她们买的彩票中奖了,还没花这笔意外之财的时候,
Rakiya有了想法,所以windfall指的是“意外之财”,即Unexpected money。故选C。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Rakiya and her mother had never forgotten how kind the police had been after
their own family member was attacked.(Rakiya和她的母亲从未忘记,在她们的家人遭到袭击后,警察是多么
的善良。)”以及“Rakiya wanted to give their lottery winnings to Officer Moss’s family. Her mom readily agreed.
(Rakiya想把她们的彩票奖金捐给莫斯警官的家人。她妈妈欣然同意了。)”可知,对过去警察善意的感激让
Sims决定捐赠彩票奖金。故选B。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中“On July 10, Sims called the police and made an anonymous (匿名的) donation.
Moved by her generous act, the officers did what they do best — they tracked Sims down. When she explained the
family’s motivation, the officers could hardly believe it.(7月10日,Sims联系警方,进行了匿名捐款。警方被
她的善举深深打动,最终查到了她的身份。当她说明捐款缘由后,警方难以置信。)”可知,警察在捐赠后
追踪Sims是为了找到真相。故选D。

后一段中“The police set up a GoFundMe page for Sims and her daughter, whom they named “The Woman with
the Heart of Gold.” (警方为Sims母女开设了众筹页面,称赞她为“心地至善的女人”。)”可知,文章讲述
了Shetara Sims母女捡到钱买彩票中奖后,将奖金匿名捐给受伤警察家庭,后获警方帮助的暖心故事,体
现了双方互相给予的温暖,A选项“A Lottery Win That Brought Mutual Warmth(一场带来双方温暖的彩票中
奖)”最符合文章主旨,适合作最佳标题。故选A。
Passage 3
( 2026·高三·安徽滁州市·二模)
The district championship game between Academy and Apache was intense. The Academy players were
weaker, and their coach, Brendan King, knew they’d have to play their best for a chance at winning. When Apache
built a lead by 14 points with four minutes on the clock, King called one last timeout (比赛暂停). “If we want to win
this game, this is the time,” he told his players.Academy came out of the timeout with new energy, sinking shot after shot to narrow the gap to just a few
points. Then, with two minutes left, the referee (裁判) stopped play. The scoreboard had Academy down by 4 points;
the scorebook had them down by 2. League rules state that the scorebook is final. The scoreboard was updated to 43
-41, with Apache taking the lead.
Play continued. Academy hit a 3-point shot to top Apache by a point for the school’s first-ever district
championship. The girls piled up on top of one another, but King walked to the locker room with a sinking feeling in
his heart.
That night, King sat down at the table with the game tape. He watched the entire game through, counting every
point on a notepad. His instinct was right. By his count, Academy had lost the game by a point. Just a minute before
the referee stopped the game, the scorekeeper miscounted an extra basket for the Academy due to a poor angle.
Deflated but relieved to know the truth, King informed the league’s governing body. Then, he told the players to
meet him at school and broke the news. Within 20 minutes, the team decided there was only one thing left to do: turn
the trophy (奖杯) over to the rightful champion. Next, King made the 90-minute drive to Apache to deliver the trophy
to its players.
Apache coach had also noticed the error and raised the issue with officials, but the score wasn’t overturned.
After reviewing King’s report, they made an exception, earning Apache its win. “They worked just as hard as we
did. I hated the moment was taken away from them,” says King.
1.What happened with two minutes left in the game?
A.The scorekeeper found an error. B.Academy took the lead with a 3-point shot.
C.King called a technical timeout. D.The match was suspended over a scoring mistake.
2.Why did the scorekeeper add extra points to Academy’s score?
A.He misread the league rules. B.The close game confused him.
C.He had a poor viewing angle. D.The scoreboard showed wrong scores.
3.What does the underlined word “Deflated” in paragraph 5 mean?
A.Confused. B.Discouraged. C.Astonished. D.Annoyed.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.A Close Match B.True Champions C.Coach’s Choice D.A Satisfying Result
【答案】1.D 2.C 3.B 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了 Academy队和Apache队之间激烈的地区冠军赛,在比赛中
因记分员失误导致比分错误,最终Academy队教练King在发现真相后,主动将奖杯归还给真正获胜的
Apache队的故事。1.细节理解题。根据第二段“Then, with two minutes left, the referee (裁判) stopped play. The scoreboard had
Academy down by 4 points; the scorebook had them down by 2. League rules state that the scorebook is final. The
scoreboard was updated to 43-41, with Apache taking the lead. (然后,在比赛还剩两分钟时,裁判停止了比赛。
记分牌显示Academy队落后4分;记分簿显示他们落后2分。联盟规则规定,记分簿是最终依据。记分牌
更新为43比41,Apache队领先。)”可知,在比赛还剩两分钟时,因记分出现错误比赛暂停。故选D项。
2.细节理解题。根据第四段“Just a minute before the referee stopped the game, the scorekeeper miscounted an
extra basket for the Academy due to a poor angle. (就在裁判停止比赛前一分钟,由于角度不佳,记分员为
Academy队多算了一个篮筐得分。)”可知,记分员给Academy队额外加分是因为他视角不佳。故选C项。
3.词句猜测题。根据第五段“Deflated but relieved to know the truth, King informed the league’s governing body.
(King得知真相后,虽然感到deflated,但也松了一口气,他将情况告知了联盟的管理机构。)”可知,前后
句为转折关系,King得知真相后,虽然松了一口气,但也应该是感到沮丧的,所以deflated的意思应为
“沮丧的”。A. Confused困惑的;B. Discouraged沮丧的;C. Astonished惊讶的;D. Annoyed恼怒的。故
选B项。
4.主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Apache coach had also noticed the error and raised the issue with officials, but
the score wasn’t overturned. After reviewing King’s report, they made an exception, earning Apache its win. “They
worked just as hard as we did. I hated the moment was taken away from them,” says King. (Apache 队的教练也注
意到了这个错误,并向官员提出了这个问题,但比分没有被推翻。在审查了 King的报告后,他们破例做
出了决定,Apache队获胜。“他们和我们一样努力。我讨厌这一刻从他们身边被夺走,”King说。)”及全
文可知,文章主要讲述了Academy队和Apache队之间激烈的地区冠军赛,在比赛中因记分员失误导致比
分错误,最终Academy队教练King在发现真相后,主动将奖杯归还给真正获胜的Apache队的故事,体现
了真正的冠军精神。所以“True Champions (真正的冠军)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选B项。
Passage 4
(2026·高三·福建南平市·二模)
When Lila Martinez moved to Maple Street, she was struck by a marked contrast. The houses were well-kept,
with flowers blooming in most yards, but at the corner of her block sat a 1,200-square-foot parking lot — a dumping
ground for old tires, broken furniture, and overgrown weeds. To Lila, it looked like a “wound” that the neighborhood
had simply learned to ignore.
Instead of complaining, the 17-year-old decided to take action. She began knocking on doors, a clipboard in
hand, asking her neighbors, “What would you do with that lot if you could?”
Mrs. Henderson, an 82-year-old resident living alone, teared up as she said, “I used to have a garden, but I
can’t bend down anymore. I’d love to smell fresh flowers again.” Mr. Torres, the owner of the local grocery store,offered to donate tools and soil. Even the teenagers were interested, suggesting a place to play basketball.
Lila realized the project was bigger than just cleaning up rubbish. She named it the “Maple Community
Garden” and launched a crowdfunding campaign. With the raised money, she hired a local construction company to
level the ground. The first Saturday was backbreaking. Lila and twenty volunteers filled 40 garbage bags with rubbish.
As the weeks passed, the lot began to breathe again. Sunflowers towered over the fence, attracting bees and butterflies.
Tomatoes ripened on the vine.
More importantly, the people began to bloom. The teens who helped build the basketball court started assisting
Mrs. Henderson to carry her groceries. Mr. Torres began hosting weekly barbecues using vegetables from the garden.
Neighbors who had lived next to each other for decades but never spoken were now exchanging recipes and gardening
tips.
Lila said, “I thought I was just building a garden, but what I really built was a bridge. That empty lot used to
divide us; now it connects us.”
1.Why did Lila view the lot as a “wound”?
A.It ruined the street’s beauty.
B.It took up much space.
C.It caused conflicts in neighbors.
D.It reminded her of an injury.
2.Which of the following best describes the residents’ response?
A.Surprised. B.Supportive.
C.Cautious. D.Emotional.
3.What did Lila do for the community project?
A.She offered tools and soil.
B.She raised money door to door.
C.She secured support to transform the lot.
D.She encouraged neighbors to grow vegetables.
4.What is the best title for the text?
A.Ways to Build a Better Block
B.The Garden that Heals a Neighborhood
C.Cares for the Old in the Community
D.A Teenager’s Dream of a Lovely Garden
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.C 4.B【导语】本文主要讲述了17岁的莱拉·马丁内斯发现社区角落的空地被当作垃圾场后,主动发起项目,将
其改造成社区花园,不仅改善了环境,还拉近了邻里关系的故事。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The houses were well-kept, with flowers blooming in most yards, but at the
corner of her block sat a 1,200-square-foot parking lot-a dumping ground for old tires, broken furniture, and overgrown
weeds.(大多数院子里的房子都保养得很好,鲜花盛开,但在她街区的拐角处,有一个 1200平方英尺的停
车场——一个堆放旧轮胎、破旧家具和杂草丛生的垃圾场。)”可知,这个空地堆满垃圾,破坏了街道的美
观,所以莱拉把它看作“伤口”。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Mrs. Henderson, an 82-year-old resident living alone, teared up as she said, “I
used to have a garden, but I can’t bend down anymore. I’d love to smell fresh flowers again.” Mr. Torres, the owner
of the local grocery store, offered to donate tools and soil. Even the teenagers were interested, suggesting a place to
play basketball.(亨德森夫人是一位 82 岁的独居老人,她眼含泪水说道:“我以前有个小花园,可现在再也
弯不了腰了。我好想再闻一闻鲜花的芬芳。”当地杂货店老板托雷斯先生主动提出捐赠园艺工具和泥土,
就连附近的青少年也热心参与,还提议顺带规划出一块篮球场。)”可知,居民们纷纷表达意愿、提供帮助,
对莱拉的项目持支持态度。
3.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“She began knocking on doors, a clipboard in hand, asking her neighbors,
“What would you do with that lot if you could?”(她手里拿着写字板,开始挨家挨户敲门,向邻居们询问:“如
果可以的话,你们想把那块空地用来做什么?”)”以及第四段中的“She named it the ‘Maple Community
Garden’ and launched a crowdfunding campaign. With the raised money, she hired a local construction company to
level the ground.(她将这里命名为“枫叶社区花园”,并发起了众筹活动。她用筹集到的资金聘请了当地一
家建筑公司平整土地。)”以及后文邻居们的参与可知,莱拉通过敲门征求意见、众筹资金、雇佣施工公司,
还获得了邻居们的各种支持,最终改造了这片空地。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文可知,莱拉将社区里的垃圾场改造成社区花园,不仅改善了环境,还让原本疏
远的邻里变得亲密,治愈了整个社区的隔阂。结合最后一段莱拉所说的“I thought I was just building a garden,
but what I really built was a bridge. That empty lot used to divide us; now it connects us.(我以为我只是在建一个
花园,但我真正建造的是一座桥。那个空地曾经把我们分开,现在它把我们连接在一起。)”可知,“The
Garden that Heals a Neighborhood(治愈社区的花园)”最能概括文章主旨。
Passage 5
(2026·高三·江西萍乡市·二模)
Maggie Aderin, an award-winning UK astronomer and broadcaster, has worked on the James Webb and Gemini
telescopes. Her autobiography Starchild records her journey from a sci-fi-obsessed child to a leading scientist, as
well as her views on neurodiversity, diversity in science, and the power of astronomy.Growing up in inner-city London, Aderin dreamed of going into space, inspired by Star Trek. She attended 13
schools in 12 years due to her parents’ divorce, and undiagnosed dyslexia (阅读障碍) made her fall behind. At 14,
she built her own telescope after learning from The Sky at Night, a BBC program she later hosted. Her father, a
Nigerian immigrant, instilled in her the value of education. For both father and daughter, the moon became a symbol
of hope: it guided him on unlit roads in Nigeria, and shone brightly for her amid the city’s starless skies.
Aderin is open about her neurodiversity. “To be a role model, you don’t have to be perfect,” she says. “I have
dyslexia and ADHD — I can’t spell well and am often late. It’s all part of my neurodiversity, and yet I am reaching
for the stars.” She believes everyone has something inside them that burns bright. “The key is to find out what sets
your heart on fire.”
Throughout her career, Aderin has often been underestimated, once mistaken for a cleaner or a tea lady. Being
the only Black woman in her field, she now reframes these experiences as opportunities, stressing that science thrives
on diversity. “Groups of similar-minded people think alike, hindering groundbreaking leaps in technology and in
understanding.”
When it comes to astronomy, she notes it is the pure quest for knowledge. “To me, it’s like poetry and art,
enlivening the spirit. Every culture has looked up at the night sky and wondered what’s out there,” she says. During
the pandemic, she encouraged people to look up: “A broader perspective helps.”
1.What can be inferred about Aderin’s early years?
A.Dyslexia kept her from schooling.
B.Her father pushed her into astronomy.
C.Her interest in space arose from Sci-fi.
D.She received little support from her family.
2.Why does the author mention the moon in paragraph 2?
A.To contrast urban and rural environments.
B.To indicate a shared source of hope.
C.To show Aderin’s admiration for her father.
D.To explain Aderin’s way to choose her career.
3.What does Aderin think of her being underestimated?
A.A motivation to work harder.
B.A chance to value diversity.
C.A challenge for female scientists.
D.A reminder of Black women’s difficulties.4.What message does the text mainly convey?
A.Role models are expected to be perfect.
B.Astronomy appeals to people across cultures.
C.Personal hardships can fuel scientific progress.
D.Diversity and perseverance drive breakthroughs.
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.B 4.D
【导语】文章主要讲述了英国天文学家Maggie Aderin的成长经历、职业成就及对多样性和坚持的看法。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Growing up in inner-city London, Aderin dreamed of going into space, inspired
by Star Trek.(Aderin在伦敦市中心长大,受《星际迷航》启发,她从小就梦想飞向太空。)”可知,Aderin对
太空的兴趣源于科幻小说。
2.推理判断题。根据第二段中“For both father and daughter, the moon became a symbol of hope: it guided him
on unlit roads in Nigeria, and shone brightly for her amid the city’s starless skies.(对父女俩来说,月亮成了希望
的象征:在尼日利亚没有灯光的道路上,月亮指引着他前行;在城市无星的夜空中,月亮为她照亮。)”可
知,作者在第二段提到月亮是为了表明一个共同的希望来源。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Being the only Black woman in her field, she now reframes these experiences as
opportunities, stressing that science thrives on diversity.(作为她所在领域唯一的黑人女性,她现在将这些经历重
新定义为机会,强调科学因多样性而繁荣。)”可知,Aderin认为她被低估是一次重视多样性的机会。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第三段中“She believes everyone has something inside them that burns
bright. “The key is to find out what sets your heart on fire.”(她相信每个人内心都有一些燃烧得很亮的东西。
“关键是找出什么点燃了你的心。”)”以及第四段中“Groups of similar-minded people think alike, hindering
groundbreaking leaps in technology and in understanding.(志同道合的人想法相似,阻碍了技术和理解上的突破
性飞跃。)”可知,文章主要传达了多样性和坚持推动突破的信息。
Passage 6
(2026·高三·山东滨州市·二模)
Art is not always made of marble or canvas. On the shores of India, artist SudarsanPattnaik uses a unique
medium: sand — fragile, shifting and temporary. His canvas is the beach, and his creations, though they eventually
disappear, leave behind something far more lasting: deep thought.
Without teachers or structured learning, Pattnaik taught himself by observing and experimenting, turning the
beach into his studio. Over time, his unique craft has traveled far beyond his hometown, earning him an international
reputation and numerous global awards.
For Pattnaik, art has never been just about aesthetics (美学); it is about raising awareness. He sees his sandsculptures as powerful tools to respond to urgent global issues. Over the years, his art has centered around critical
themes, transforming sand into impactful public service messages. On World Environment Day, he created striking
visuals of endangered marine life trapped in plastic, urging people to reconsider their daily consumption. In another
powerful work, he sculpted a massive Earth cradled in human hands, symbolizing both responsibility and fragility.
His sculptures often carry clear messages like “Save Earth”, turning a shoreline into a site of reflection. Beyond
environmental campaigns, Pattnaik’s work also pushes creative boundaries. He has created tributes to global leaders
and cultural icons to mark significant international events. Each piece, regardless of its theme, strengthens the
connection between art and society.
Perhaps the most unique aspect of his work is its temporary nature. The sand sculptures can be scattered by
the wind or washed away by the sea. However, Pattnaik builds them anyway, knowing that while the physical form
may disappear, the message will remain. In a fast-moving world, his art asks us to pause and think. The true endurance
of his art lies not in the sand itself, but in the memory and action it inspires.
1.What helped Pattnaik acquire his artistic skills?
A.Formal education and structured courses.
B.Extensive travel and international exchanges.
C.Independent learning and dedicated practice.
D.Professional guidance and hands-on experience.
2.What is the main role of his works according to Pattnaik?
A.A tool to promote an exceptional art form.
B.A carrier to provide pure aesthetic pleasure.
C.A means to break boundaries between cultures.
D.A way to speak for the environment and society.
3.What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Artists should employ durable materials.
B.The sculptures can be preserved forever.
C.Art’s value goes beyond its physical form.
D.Art should cater to the fast-moving world.
4.Which words can best describe Pattnaik?
A.Responsible and innovative. B.Considerate and humble.
C.Talented and courageous. D.Influential and organized.
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.C 4.A【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了印度艺术家以沙滩为画布创作沙雕,自学成名享誉国际。其作品聚焦环保与
社会议题,虽易被风雨消散,却能传递深刻思想,拥有恒久的精神价值。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“Without teachers or structured learning, Pattnaik taught himself by observing

了社会责任感。由此可推知,帕特奈克是一个责任心强且富有创新精神的人。
Passage 7
(2026·高三·河南濮阳市·二模)
Growing up in a small village in southern Ghana, Osei Boateng witnessed his family and neighbors struggle
to access basic health care. For many villagers, the nearest hospital was a several-hour journey on rough roads. His
grandmother’s death from a preventable illness deeply saddened him and fueled his desire to make a difference.Ghana faces significant health challenges: with a life expectancy of about 64, the country sees high death rates
from treatable diseases like malaria and stroke. Determined to address this issue, Boateng studied diligently and
earned a scholarship to Cornell University in the US, where he completed a master’s degree in Healthcare
Administration.
During his studies, he realized that his homeland lacked two critical things: health education and preventive
care. Villagers were too busy making a living to travel to hospitals for regular check-ups. Early screening was rare,
and many were unaware of the deadly risks posed by conditions such as high blood pressure and diabetes (糖尿病).
In 2021, Boateng founded the OKB Hope Foundation and transformed a van (厢式货车) into a mobile medical
clinic. Several times a week, a team of professional medical workers travels to remote villages, offering free health
check-ups, basic medical tests, and essential medicines. To date, the van has served over 4,000 people across more
than 45 rural communities.
Boateng’s team has also trained 20 local volunteers to collect health data, ensuring continuous monitoring of
villagers’ well-being. Beyond physical health, he has launched a mental health program to reduce the symptom around
depression and provide much-needed emotional support. For Boateng, bringing life-saving care to those in need has
become the most meaningful part of his life.
His remarkable efforts have gained widespread recognition, including the 2025 Global Citizen Waislitz Grand
Prize. So far, the OKB Hope Foundation has served over 15,000 people in more than 100 remote communities in
Ghana. Boateng’s work has not only saved lives but also shifted people’s healthcare mindset — from seeking treatment
only when ill to hugging proactive prevention. He stands as an inspiring example of turning personal grief (悲痛)
into lasting good for one’s nation.

Passage 8
(2026·高三·湖北宜昌市·二模)
As a child growing up in coastal Brittany, Eddie Wang would often watch large quantities of oyster (牡蛎)
shells thrown away near the ports. Yet he also observed that these very shells, once burned and processed, were
traditionally used as a protective layer on house walls, helping to regulate temperature. This early impression left a
lasting impact, planting in him the idea that what others overlooked might hold hidden value.
Years later, Wang revisited this idea, driven by a desire to contribute to a circular economy. “I was fascinated
by the unique qualities of oyster shells and wondered how they could be repurposed on a larger scale,” he explained.
Through experimentation, his team developed a method to combine cleaned and processed oyster shells with recycled
plastic from used bottles. The result is a fine, durable fiber — known as Seawool.
The process involves breaking the shells into a fine powder (粉末), which is then blended with melted
recycled polyester (聚酯纤维). Like cooking, the mixture is pressed and pulled to create soft, lightweight fibers.
Amazingly, these fibers hold onto the shells’ gift: they fight bad smells and help with temperature control.
Seawool is now gaining attention as a sustainable alternative for making all kinds of products, from clothing
to household items. It not only reduces waste from both seafood and plastic industries but also offers a low-carbon
production choice compared to conventional man-made fabrics.
Wang views his work as part of a broader movement toward “resource-positive design”. “Every waste stream
could be a starting point for innovation,” he says. “By rethinking how materials interact, we can create systems that
are both practical and restorative.” Through projects like Seawool, waste is no longer an endpoint, but the beginning of
something new.
1.Why did Wang start researching oyster shells?
A.He was struck by their large quantity. B.He sought to recycle durable Seawool.
C.He was inspired by their hidden potential. D.He aimed to replace plastics in production.
2.What does the underlined word “blended” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Combined. B.Equipped. C.Occupied. D.Covered.
3.What makes Seawool get so much attention?
A.Its low cost. B.Its high quality. C.Its light weight. D.Its wide application.
4.Which of the following may Wang agree with?
A.Well begun is half done. B.There’s no such thing as waste.
C.The world is full of opportunities. D.Necessity is the mother of innovation.【答案】1.C 2.A 3.D 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Eddie Wang受童年观察启发,将被丢弃的牡蛎壳与回收塑料结合,
研发出可持续新材料Seawool,实现废物再利用,践行循环经济与资源创新设计理念的故事。
【详解】89.细节理解题。根据第一段中的“This early impression left a lasting impact, planting in him the idea
that what others overlooked might hold hidden value.(这个早期的印象给他留下了持久的影响,让他萌生了这样
的想法:别人忽视的东西可能隐藏着价值。)”以及第二段中的“Years later, Wang revisited this idea, driven by
a desire to contribute to a circular economy.(多年后,Wang重温了这个想法,出于为循环经济做出贡献的愿
望。)”可知,Wang开始研究牡蛎壳是因为他受到了牡蛎壳潜在价值的启发。故选C项。

用于制造从服装到家居用品等各种产品。)”可知,Seawool受到关注是因为它的应用广泛。故选D项。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Wang views his work as part of a broader movement toward ‘resource-positive
design’. ‘Every waste stream could be a starting point for innovation,’ he says. ‘By rethinking how materials interact,
we can create systems that are both practical and restorative.’ Through projects like Seawool, waste is no longer an
endpoint, but the beginning of something new.(Wang将他的工作视为更广泛的‘资源正向设计’运动的一部分
他说:‘每一种废物流都可能是创新的起点。’‘通过重新思考材料如何相互作用,我们可以创建既实用
又具有恢复性的系统。’通过像Seawool这样的项目,废物不再是终点,而是新事物的开始。)”可推知,
Wang会认同“没有真正的废物”这一观点。故选B项。
Passage 9
(2026·高三·湖南长沙名校·二模)
For more than thirty years, Vickie Hardin Woods organized streets, balanced budgets, and turned complicated
plans into workable maps. When she retired at 61, she feared the hard-earned identity of “city planner” would
disappear the moment she stepped away from her office and co-workers. What would she be without deadlines and
department meetings? However, she did not remain in fear, but sought renewal in action.
Her choice was unexpected for someone diagnosed with mild memory loss the year before: She would bake
one pie and give it away every day for a year. She needed to prove she was still mentally capable. Using fruit fromlocal markets, she filled her kitchen with the smell of cinnamon and warm butter. Measuring flour, folding dough
(面团), and timing the oven became her quiet proof that her mind was still sharp.
After making full preparations, she boarded a plane to California and baked a lemon pie in her brother’s
kitchen. It was for her 88-year-old aunt, who had once taken her in during a painful chapter of her youth. “The perfect
first pie,” she later said. Soon peach pies were delivered to old classmates, chocolate cream pies to a niece with
newborn twins, and apple pies to former co-workers. Once, she even handed a pie to a homeless man outside a mall,
which he shared with his friends, laughing in disbelief.
Word spread quickly. Strangers began greeting her as “the pie lady”. Some recipients whispered, “How did
you know I need this today?” In those moments, she discovered something sweeter than dessert: connection.
Just as city planning had once brought order to chaos, baking did the same. Twelve years later, she still creates
— writing daily letters, painting the changing sky, teaching her grandchildren to roll dough. Through flour and fruit,
she learned a lasting truth: Identity is not a title but the courage to keep creating, giving, and beginning again.
1. What initially troubled Woods about retirement?
A.Identity loss. B.Economic uncertainty.
C.Work-life imbalance. D.Social disconnection.
2. Why did Woods choose to bake pies?
A.To relieve her physical pain. B.To reach her extended family.
C.To confirm her mental ability. D.To earn community recognition.
3. What effect did giving away pies have on Woods?
A.It connected her with charity. B.It strengthened her social ties.
C.It enhanced her public reputation. D.It secured her financial stability.
4. What message does Woods’ story deliver?
A.Love makes the world warmer. B.Action helps rebuild self-worth.
C.Hard work leads to good luck. D.It’s never too late to pursue a dream.

Passage 10
(2026·高三·湖北黄冈市·二模)
Zhang Hongjun once spent his days on noisy construction sites in Shanghai, far from his rural hometown in
Fujian province. For over a decade, his life followed a common path: long hours of labor, low pay, and the loneliness of
being a migrant worker in a vast city. He dreamed of a change but saw few opportunities back home.
A visit became a turning point. Stuck in his village, Zhang noticed something new. The roads were paved,
internet signals were strong, and the local government was offering support to those willing to start businesses. The
beautiful mountains and fresh air, once taken for granted, now seemed full of potential. An idea began to form: what if
he could build a future here, not just make a living there?
Using his savings and a small government grant, Zhang took a daring step. He transformed his family’s old,
empty house into a modern café, a place where city visitors could enjoy coffee while viewing the terraced fields. At
first, neighbors were puzzled. “Who will come to the mountains for coffee?” they asked. Zhang persisted, learning
about coffee beans and design online.
Today, “Mountain Cloud Café” is more than a coffee shop. It’s a window for his village. Tourists come on
weekends, and through his café, they discover and buy local specialties like mountain tea and dried fruits. Zhang has
hired two local women, providing them with stable income. More importantly, his success has sparked a conversation.
A few other young people, who once thought leaving was the only option, are now asking, “Could I come back
too?”
“My dream isn’t huge,” Zhang says, looking at the lively scene outside. “I just want our home to thrive, sothat our children might have a choice to stay.” His journey from construction site to café owner paints a picture of
modern rural China — one where returning wings bring new life.

Passage 1
(2026·高三·安徽合肥市·二模)
Since 2019, our institute, the Institute of Biology and Chemistry of Proteins in Lyon, has reduced its carbon
footprint by about 13% through changes in lab practices. For me, however, this transformation started with a sense
of discomfort rather than with numbers.
At the time, I was an early-career researcher focusing on publications and productivity. So when about a dozen
volunteer scientists began raising concerns about the environmental impact of our work, I hesitated. Any measure
that might affect productivity seemed risky. I worried that raising freezer temperatures could damage samples, that
reducing cleaning cycles might slow experiments, and that changing long-standing procedures could hurt my
publication record.
One question in particular changed the way I think. Audrey Sabbagh, an associate professor at Paris City
University, once asked, “Can we consider research that is not ethical from an environmental point of view to be
excellent?” That question stayed with me. I realized that I had long separated excellence from responsibility.
My colleagues and I then joined the Labos 1.5 program, a collective of around 600 researchers who believe
science should lead by example in reducing society’s carbon footprint. The collective has developed a free online
tool that any researcher can use to compute their lab’s carbon footprint. The results showed that more than half of theemissions (排放) in laboratories like ours came from the production, transport, and technical services linked to lab
supplies and equipment. These emissions were far greater than those from conference travel, commuting, or heating
buildings. That finding forced me to rethink both our assumptions and our practices.
We began testing simple changes. After confirming sample safety, we carefully raised freezer temperatures,
reduced consumables, encouraged equipment repair, and extended the lifespan of computer hardware. We also
replaced short-distance flights with train travel whenever possible. These were small but practical steps. Over time,
I came to see that sustainability requires careful balancing. It is challenging, but essential for the future of science.
1. Which of the following contributed to the author’s initial hesitation?
A.Fear of their research being affected.
B.Discomfort of a new working environment.
C.Doubts about being a capable young scientist.
D.Worries about tough working conditions in the lab.
2. What does Audrey Sabbagh imply in paragraph 3?
A.Research comes out of a change in thinking.
B.Good research cannot harm the environment.
C.Research should be aimed at improving life.
D.Excellence and responsibility cannot coexist.
3. What did the results of the Labos 1.5 tool calculation suggest?
A.The lab’s carbon footprint was less serious than expected.
B.The previous assumptions and practices were largely accurate.
C.Lab supplies and equipment were the main source of lab emissions.
D.Travelling and heating accounted for the majority of the pollution.
4. What did the author finally come to realize?
A.Safety always comes first in science.
B.Scientific work requires practical skills.
C.Success in science needs careful action.
D.Small changes can promote sustainability.

Passage 2
(2026·高三·江西南昌市·二模)
Kyle Lybarger, often dressed in camo (迷彩服), doesn’t look like a typical social media influencer. Yet, as a
forest worker in Alabama, he has found unexpected internet fame by introducing his followers to the overlooked
world of southeastern plants. Today, he acts as a guardian for growing rare and endangered plant populations.
Ironically, his conservation journey began with an ecological mistake.
A decade ago, while managing a private forest, Lybarger wanted to attract more deer and wild turkeys. He
chose an open, rocky area, deciding it would be a good place to plant food for wildlife. He used herbicide (除草剂)
to clear existing plants, sowing a foreign seed fix. In the dry, shallow soil, the seeds didn’t take. But around the edges
of the land, where he hadn’t used herbicide, a breathtaking picture of colorful, unfamiliar native flowers came into
view in the sunlight.
After Lybarger posted the photos of the flowers online, a local botanist reached out, identifying the flowers as
rare species. Lybarger realized he had nearly killed off an area with a wild seed bank of countless species just to
plant a few foreign ones. “That’s really a light bulb moment (灵光一闪),” he recalls. He recognized this reflected a
common human tendency to dominate rather than coexist with nature. Diving into research, he learned that before
human settlement, the Southeast was home to expansive grasslands. Over the centuries, human development and fire
control allowed foreign trees choked out the once-diverse grasslands, killing native species.
Finding a new mission, Lybarger now knocks on doors to instruct landowners who are unknowing hosts ofrare plants to care for those populations. He also uses his massive online platform to raise funds to protect biodiversity.
His secret sauce, which immediately carried like wildfire across the nation, is his genuine passion. Lybarger’s story
proves that true environmental protection begins when we stop rewriting nature and learn to read it.
1.What made the native flowers come out?
A.Herbicide-free soil. B.Wildlife waste.
C.Foreign-seed removal. D.Sufficient sunlight.
2.What does Lybarger’s “light bulb moment” indicate?
A.He found a new planting trick. B.He doubted the expert’s words.
C.He decided to study botany. D.He regretted human intervention.
3.What does Lybarger’s current work involve?
A.Building online platforms. B.Selling his secret sauce for money.
C.Learning conservation rules. D.Educating landowners on rare plants.
4.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?
A.A Campaign Redefines Nature. B.A Mistake Awakens a Guardian.
C.Secrets to Growing Native Plants. D.Hidden Wealth of Vast Grasslands.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.D 4.B

1.细节理解题。根据第二段中“But around the edges of the land, where he hadn’t used herbicide, a breathtaking
picture of colorful, unfamiliar native flowers came into view in the sunlight. (但在这片土地边缘、未曾喷洒除草
剂的区域,绚烂多姿、鲜为人知的本土野花在阳光下竞相绽放,景色美不胜收。)”可知,是未使用除草剂
的土壤让本土野花得以生长。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段中“Lybarger realized he had nearly killed off an area with a wild seed bank of
countless species just to plant a few foreign ones. “That’s really a light bulb moment (灵光一闪),” he recalls. He
recognized this reflected a common human tendency to dominate rather than coexist with nature. (Lybarger 意识到,

Passage 3
(2026·高三·广东揭阳市·二模)
When 16-year-old Boyan Slat went diving in Greece, he expected to see colorful fish and coral. Instead, he
was shocked to find himself swimming through a sea of plastic bags and bottles.
This disturbing experience opened his eyes to the reality of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a massive
accumulation of trash floating in the Pacific Ocean. At the time, most experts believed cleaning up this mess was
impossible. They argued that because the plastic is spread over such a vast area, using ships with nets would take
thousands of years and cost billions of dollars, which seemed like a waste of resources.
However, Slat refused to accept this defeatist attitude. While waiting for a flight, he suddenly realized a key
principle: why chase the trash when the ocean currents can bring it to you? He proposed a passive system using giant
floating barriers that act like artificial coastlines. These barriers move with the waves, allowing the faster-moving
plastic to be caught and concentrated in one area, while the marine life can safely swim underneath.
Slat was so committed to this vision that he dropped out of college to focus entirely on his project. He founded
“The Ocean Cleanup”, a non-profit organization dedicated to ridding the world’s oceans of plastic. The journey was
far from smooth; his team faced severe criticism and technical failures during the early stages. However, instead of
giving up, they analyzed every mistake and improved their design. Today, their technology is finally operational and
has successfully removed tons of waste. The collected plastic is recycled into durable products like sunglasses, and
the profits are used to fund further cleanup missions.
Slat’s story serves as an inspiring reminder that age is just a number when it comes to solving global problems,
and that with enough determination, we can turn a hopeless situation into a sustainable solution.
1. What was the key challenge in cleaning up the Great Pacific Garbage Patch?
A.The plastic was too heavy to be lifted by ships.
B.Plastic waste’s wide spread made cleaning costly and unachievable.
C.The ocean currents were too strong for ships to navigate.D.The plastic was mixed with marine life, making it difficult to separate.
2. How does Slat’s passive system work to collect plastic?
A.By using ships with nets to chase and catch the plastic.
B.By using ocean currents to concentrate trash.
C.By treating plastic with chemicals to make it small.
D.By using floating barriers to trap plastic with currents.
3. How did Slat respond to the doubts and technical setbacks in the text?
A.He published papers to prove experts wrong.
B.He sought government support to solve technical issues.
C.He ignored the criticism and stuck to his original plan.
D.He adjusted his approach through learning from failures.
4. What is the author’s attitude towards Boyan Slat’s achievement?
A.Admiring and supportive.
B.Objective and optimistic.
C.Skeptical and cautious.
D.Critical and disappointed.
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.D 4.A

Passage 1
(2026·高三·福建泉州市·二模)
I have always been a person that needed to have the time to explore or experience something before I could
make personal meaning. I often found that without first-hand experiences, I would soon forget. And nature always
helped me remember and make connections to other concepts and ideas.
Confucius’ saying “I hear and I forget. I see and I remember. I do and I understand.” became clear to me
through Dr. Bill Belzer. At the camp, he led us city kids — raised amid concrete, blacktop and little green space —
on adventures. Every morning he would offer a stream hike, mud hike, or nature study of some sort. At first, I held
back from joining him. However, when I saw the other campers returning from their outings happy and excited, I
went to nature study because it seemed fun, and it was!
Every time I went to Belzer’s nature study, everyone was observing, touching, listening, so was our leader.
With each discovery we made on the walk, new things would come to light, inspiring unexpected connections.
Occasionally Bill would come over and say, “What do you see?” It was not planned, it was spontaneous (自发的)
and we were attracted to this kind of play and exploration.
With this in the mind, I took the leap into this kind of learning by organising a stream stroll at the university
where I taught.
Each undergraduate was assigned a group of about four or five first-grade children. And with a splash, we
were all explorers. The undergraduates initially tried to guide the children to see specific things, but later found that
the children had their own exploration directions, so they turned to follow the children’s rhythm and were shocked
by this unplanned exploration.
Learning about nature and our earth, to make a personal connection, must be through involvement in something
over time. That’s the proof: a lasting connection to nature and learning is formed not in classrooms, but in doing.1.How did the author initially feel about joining Dr. Belzer’s nature study?
A.Cautious. B.Hesitant.
C.Prepared. D.Curious.
2.Why does the author mention Dr. Bill Belzer’s camp?
A.To recall a memorable childhood adventure.
B.To prove city kids lack exposure to nature.
C.To demonstrate learning through direct experience.
D.To present the figure of Dr. Bill Belzer.
3.What happened when the undergraduates freed the children?
A.The kids’ self-directed discoveries amazed them.
B.The undergraduates took over the role of guiding.
C.The children lost interest without clear direction.
D.The activity became chaotic and unproductive.
4.What is the author’s main argument in the text?
A.Teachers should receive training in outdoor education.
B.Lasting learning comes from personal involvement in doing.
C.Unplanned exploration is the best way for children to learn.
D.Nature study is more effective than classroom instruction.
【答案】1.B 2.C 3.A 4.B

Passage 2
(2026·高三·山东济南市·二模)
Maya Martinez, a high school senior living in a fog-covered coastal village in North California, noticed that the
community garden was gradually drying up during the driest summer on record. While the villagers remained helpless,
Maya chose to spend her afternoons carefully observing the thick mist that rolled in from the sea.
Maya had already identified a critical fault in traditional fog-collecting mesh nets (网状网): they frequently
became blocked by the very water drops they caught, which severely reduced their effectiveness. Digging deeper into
solutions, Maya found a novel device designed by two scientists — the “Fog Harp (竖琴)”.
Maya decided to use the handy materials to create her own “Fog Harp”. At first, neighbors watched the process
with doubt as she strung hundreds of thin, upright wires across a solid wooden frame. To them, the setup looked no
more than “a giant musical instrument” that only produced useless sounds in the cold coastal wind. Little did they
know this simple-looking setup would soon prove surprisingly effective.
The remarkable efficiency of Maya’s Fog Harp lies in its clever use of gravity. In a traditional mesh net, tiny
water drops get easily trapped within the small square gaps, which stop further collection. This occurs because the
surface tension — the invisible, stretchy “skin” of liquid water — is too strong for the small drops to overcome. In
Maya’s Fog Harp, by contrast, water drops hit the wires and slowly combine into larger drops. Most importantly,
with no cross wires to hold these larger drops in place, gravity easily overcomes surface tension, allowing the water
to slide effortlessly down the wires and collect in a tank below.
Of course, the project faced its share of setbacks. During one severe coastal storm, the extreme wind tore
through the wooden frame. Yet, instead of giving in to despair, she immediately set out to fix the problem by
reinforcing the entire structure with durable steel wires. By the time autumn arrived, Maya’s “Fog Harps” were
reliably producing plenty of fresh water every day, partly meeting the daily water needs of the village.
1.Why did Maya observe the thick mist in her afternoons?
A.To predict the weather conditions.B.To clarify the reasons for drought.
C.To check the efficiency of the mesh nets.
D.To work out a solution to water shortage.
2.What can we know about Maya’s “Fog Harp”?
A.It was a musical instrument. B.It invited villagers’ acid words.
C.It presented an inborn fault. D.It featured a solid metal frame.
3.What is the key for Maya’s Fog Harp to function well?
A.Its upright-wire design. B.Its mesh-net structure.
C.Its weak surface tension. D.Its resistance to gravity.
4.What can we learn from Maya’s story?
A.Look before you leap. B.Better late than never.
C.Think outside the box. D.Time waits for no man.

Passage 3
(2026·高三·T8联考·二模)
At a party I encountered a museum director, who would soon be leaving on an African safari (观兽旅行).
Feeling fascinated, my partner Hugh and I enthusiastically booked one, the sort where you shoot wildlife with a
camera rather than a gun.
A month later at Maasai Mara, a 583-square-mile nature reserve, we were in a vehicle surrounded by seven
lions, none of which seemed to care about us. On the drive to our camp, we saw every animal that was in The Lion
King. But a herd of eight elephants eating grass stole the show. Despite their impressive size, what surprised me, and
was so magnificent, was the sound of the tall grass being torn with their trunks. I closed my eyes to listen, imagining
creating a best-selling perfume that would smell the way grass being ripped from the ground by elephants.
The world can be a wild place, but that’s not the lesson you want to carry home with you. Yes, we humans are
cruel and often dangerous, but there’s still nature, and before it’s too late we need to appreciate it. Admittedly, not
everyone can hang out with elephants, but look at that bird landing on your feeder, and at that squirrel chasing the
bird away from the feeder. Look at the rats slipping before you on a city street, at the spider that somehow got smashed
in your elevator.
We’re all on a safari of one kind or another — it’s just that some of us aren’t returning with two brilliant
souvenirs of Maasai and a bacteria infection.
1.What can we learn about the safari the author booked?
A.It involved photographing wild animals.B.It was recommended by the museum director.
C.It required the author to carry a gun for safety. D.It was a last-minute booking due to excitement.
2.What can be inferred from paragraph 2?
A.Lions were the most impressive animals they saw.B.They spotted a great variety of classic wild animals.
C.The author recommended the movie The Lion King.
D.Maasai Mara was the filming location of The Lion King.
3.What does the underlined phrase “stole the show” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Failed to meet expectations. B.Caused a sudden disturbance.
C.Created a dangerous situation. D.Became the most attractive part.
4.What is the author’s main purpose of writing the text?
A.To call for timely appreciation of nature. B.To share an unforgettable safari experience.
C.To remind readers of the cruelty of humans. D.To describe the beauty of wildlife in Africa.
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.D 4.A

Passage 1(2026·高三·河北唐山市·二模)
Fiona Reilly is a senior emergency physician. Her first answer to what the key to good healthcare is might be
a little unexpected.
Dr Reilly says doctors often don’t allow patients to share their stories, which could include the feelings,
concerns and experiences they bring into a medical consultation that impact their medical interactions. She points to
a 2019 US study that looked into the time it takes before a doctor interrupts a patient for the first time. “It’s rather
bad. It’s 11 seconds,” she says. “But when patients are given that space, their experience is vastly different-and so is
the feeling they walk away with.”
Dr Reilly recalls meeting a family at her emergency department several years ago. Their three-year-old daughter
had a fever and doctors treating her believed it was likely a common illness. But the family remained highly anxious
about the child’s illness. It led the doctors to do a number of extra tests, which increased the complexity and cost for
the patient and to the system. The tests returned as normal, but the family’s concern was still there. Therefore, Dr
Reilly was brought in to give a second opinion. The first thing she did was speak with the child’s mother. The mother
explained that years earlier, she sensed something was not right with her pregnancy and sought medical care. At the
hospital, she’d been reassured that everything was okay after a number of tests. But, sadly, she lost the baby in the
end.
“As the mother told her story, I understood why she was so worried about this child today,” Dr Reilly says.
“The storyteller has power. The more patients feel listened to, the more likely they are to have closer and more
productive relationships with their medical providers.”
The mother’s story is not uncommon. “A good doctor needs scientific knowledge and technical skill,” she
says. “But they also need insight and the ability to listen and interpret a story. And they need a moral framework in
which to situate that so that they can make a deep and important and trusting connection with their patients.”
1.What can be inferred from the 2019 US study?
A.Doctors cut patients off quickly.
B.Patients annoyed doctors easily.
C.Patients hated talking to doctors.
D.Doctors talked to patients anxiously.
2.Why did the family remain highly anxious?
A.The doctors gave wrong tests.
B.They had a terrible experience.
C.The daughter had a serious illness.D.The treatment cost was rather high.
3.What does Dr Reilly mean when she says “the storyteller has power”?
A.Patients can ask doctors for more tests.
B.Patients can tell their stories to the doctors.
C.Patients can treat doctors in their own way.
D.Patients can influence doctors’ understanding.
4.What is the last paragraph mainly about?
A.The value of good doctors.
B.The role of technical skills.
C.The way of gaining patients’ trust.
D.The standard of doctors’ moral behavior.
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.D 4.A
【导语】主要通过急诊医生菲奥娜·赖利的视角,讲述医生倾听患者故事的重要性,以一个家庭因孩子发烧
就医的案例,说明患者的经历和感受对医疗互动有重要影响,强调好医生应具备倾听患者故事的能力。
1.推理判断题。根据第二段“She points to a 2019 US study that looked into the time it takes before a doctor
interrupts a patient for the first time. “It’s rather bad. It’s 11 seconds,” she says.(她提到2019年美国的一项研究,
该研究调查了医生首次打断患者说话之前所花的时间。“情况相当糟糕。只有 11秒,”她说)”可知,从
2019年美国的这项研究可以推断出医生很快就打断患者说话。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段“The mother explained that years earlier, she sensed something was not right with
her pregnancy and sought medical care. At the hospital, she’d been reassured that everything was okay after a number
of tests. But, sadly, she lost the baby in the end.(这位母亲解释说,几年前,她感觉自己的孕期有些不对劲,于
是去就医。在医院,经过一系列检查后,医生让她放心,说一切都正常。但遗憾的是,她最终还是失去了
孩子)”可知,这个家庭之前有过糟糕的经历,所以对这次孩子发烧高度焦虑。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段“As the mother told her story, I understood why she was so worried about this child
today,Dr Reilly says. “The storyteller has power. The more patients feel listened to, the more likely they are to have
closer and more productive relationships with their medical providers.(雷利医生说:“那位母亲讲述自己的经
历时,我终于明白了她今天为何如此为孩子忧心。 倾诉者拥有治愈的力量。患者越是感觉自己被认真倾听
就越有可能与医护人员建立更亲近、更融洽高效的医患关系。”)可知,当雷利医生说“讲故事的人有力
量”时,意思是患者讲述自己的故事会影响医生的理解。
4.主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The mother’s story is not uncommon. “A good doctor needs scientific knowledge
and technical skill,” she says. “But they also need insight and the ability to listen and interpret a story. And theyneed a moral framework in which to situate that so that they can make a deep and important and trusting connection
with their patients.”.(这位母亲的经历并非个例。 她说:“一名优秀的医生既需要专业的科学知识与诊疗技
术, 也需要洞察力,以及倾听、解读患者心声的能力。 同时,医生还需要一套道德准则,以此来审视和
理解患者的经历, 从而与患者建立深刻、真挚且互信的医患关系。”)”可知,最后一段主要讲的是好医生
应具备的能力,也就是好医生的价值。
Passage 2
( 2026·高三·江苏徐州市·二模)
Marnie Hale grew up in a small industrial town in northern England. From an early age, she felt a strong
connection with music and often wrote short songs in her notebook after school. Yet she seldom shared her works
with anyone, troubled by a lasting sense of self-doubt. She feared that her words and melodies were too ordinary to
be appreciated by others.
After graduating from high school, Marnie took a part-time job in a local record store. The shop was filled
with classic albums and busy music lovers, but her own dream of singing remained hidden. She kept writing songs
late at night, using an old guitar passed down from her grandfather. Music became her private space rather than
something she dared to show in public.
One day, a retired independent music producer visited the store. He accidentally heard Marnie humming a
piece she had written. Struck by her gentle voice and sincere lyrics, he walked up and encouraged her to record a
short sample. At first, Marnie refused, worried that she would disappoint him. Deep inside, she still doubted her own
talent.
With the producer’s patient guidance, Marnie finally agreed to step into a small studio. The process was far
from easy. She often felt nervous and had to record the same line many times. But gradually, she learned to calm her
mind and focus on the feelings she wanted to express. She stopped worrying about perfect performance and started
enjoying the act of creating.
Marnie never became a world-famous star. She performed in small local cafes and released several independent
online albums. Her audience was not large, but those who listened to her songs felt touched and inspired. Many of
them wrote to share how her music helped them through hard days. This support made her realize the true meaning
of her effort.
Today, Marnie still writes and sings as she used to. Her story tells readers that real success does not lie in fame
or wealth. It lies in accepting who you are, facing your fears bravely, and sticking to what you truly love. Even small,
quiet efforts can light up both one’s own life and the hearts of others.
1.What prevented Marnie sharing her songs at first?A.Hates communicating with others.
B.Needs more professional guidance.
C.Has no musical writing experience.
D.Distrusts her own music works.
2.What did the record shop bring to Marnie?
A.A quiet space for songwriting.
B.Chances to meet famous singers.
C.High pay for music equipment.
D.Lessons from senior musicians.
3.How did Marnie change in the studio?
A.Became proud of her melodies.

(2026·高三·浙江温州市·二模)
I am the world’s leading climate change campaigner. Well, since last month. That’s when we had the solar
panels installed, linked to an app on my phone. Now, wherever I am, I can open the app and see how much electricity
we are creating and how much we are consuming. Right now, we’re exporting 2.37 kilowatts to the grid (电网). I
enjoy the feeling. Yes, I’m saving the planet. More to the point: I’m making upwards of 10 cents an hour, DOING
NOTHING.
Certainly, you have to put in a bit of effort. Ever since I became an energy exporter, I have been patrolling
(巡逻) the house, trying to maximize our production. Of course, I get some complaints from my wife, Jocasta, along
the lines of “I was using that light to read a book” or “Why didn’t you save my work before turning off my computer,”
but I think she is grateful for my assistance.
The only problem? Just last night, I turned off everything, but we were still consuming 0.05 of a kilowatt. I
checked the fridge. It was not humming (哼鸣). All the overhead lights were out. Nothing was on standby. Yet there
it was. I hardly slept, my mind trying to work through every corner of the house.
Back at office, I find it hard to tear my eyes away from the app. Right now, it’s midday. Jocasta is at home. I
glance at the app. Oh no! Clouds overhead! Disaster! We’re now producing nothing. Nothing at all. And consumption
is suddenly through the roof. We’re using up grid power. What’s Jocasta up to? Running a factory?
The next day, at work, around midday, I check the app just to calculate how much I’ve earned. What? Disaster!
Clouds overhead again and yet power still being used. Jocasta is out of the house. Why, oh why, has Jocasta left the
TV remote in reach of the dog? I must have a word with him. You see, sometimes it’s hard to be ahead of your
time.1.What can we learn about the author from paragraph 1?
A.He is a creative businessman.
B.He takes pride in the solar gains.
C.He enjoys launching campaigns.
D.He has a gift for app development.
2.What does Jocasta complain about?
A.The unknown waste of power. B.Her family’s impatient attitude.
C.The unstable supply of electricity. D.Her husband’s unreasonable behavior.
3.What does the underlined phrase “through the roof” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Rocketing. B.Changing. C.Freezing. D.Diving.
4.What message does the text convey?
A.Actions speak louder than words.
B.A penny saved is a penny earned.
C.Great minds think ahead of their time.
D.Technology is a good servant but a bad master.
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.A 4.D
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者安装了太阳能板并通过手机 APP监控发电量与用电量,为此过度控制家
中用电,甚至因此引发家人抱怨,还因天气、意外耗电等情况焦虑不已,幽默地展现了人们在享受科技便
利的同时,也容易被科技过度支配的生活状态。
【详解】101.细节理解题。根据第一段“I enjoy the feeling. Yes, I’m saving the planet. More to the point: I’m
making upwards of 10 cents an hour, DOING NOTHING.(我很享受这种感觉。没错,我在拯救地球。更重要的
是:我什么都不用做,每小时就能赚10多美分。)”可知,作者为自己利用太阳能获得收益并节能的行为感
到自豪。故选B。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段“I get some complaints from my wife, Jocasta, along the lines of ‘I was using that
light to read a book’ or ‘Why didn’t you save my work before turning off my computer’(我妻子乔卡斯塔会有些
抱怨,比如‘我正用那盏灯看书呢’或者‘你关我电脑之前怎么不保存我的文件’)”可知,妻子抱怨丈夫
不合理的关灯、关电脑等控制用电的行为。故选D。
2.词句猜测题。根据第四段“Oh no! Clouds overhead! Disaster! We’re now producing nothing. Nothing at all.
And consumption is suddenly through the roof. We’re using up grid power.(哦不!乌云密布!糟了!我们现在
一点电都发不出来了。而用电量却突然through the roof。我们正在耗尽电网的电力。)”可知,太阳能不发电
时,用电量急剧上升,through the roof意为“急剧上升、飞涨”,与rocketing含义一致。故选A。3.推理判断题。根据第一段中“Well, since last month. That’s when we had the solar panels installed, linked to
an app on my phone. Now, wherever I am, I can open the app and see how much electricity we are creating and how
much we are consuming.(嗯,是从上个月开始算的。就在上个月,我们家装了太阳能板,还连了我手机上的
一个应用。现在不管我在哪儿,只要打开这个应用,就能看到我们发了多少电、用了多少电。)”、倒数第
二段中“Back at office, I find it hard to tear my eyes away from the app.(回到办公室,我发现我的眼睛很难从
这个应用程序上移开。) ”、最后一段中“You see, sometimes it’s hard to be ahead of your time.(你看,有时候
走在时代的前面是很难的。)”并结合全文可知,作者借助太阳能和APP管理用电本是科技带来的便利,却
反过来被这个监控应用控制了生活,时时刻刻牵挂耗电量,一点波动就焦虑不已,文章传达出“科技是好
的仆人,但容易成为糟糕的主人”的道理。故选D。
Passage 4
(2026·高三·浙江金华十校·二模)
I have a son with whom I do “special time”. My wife and I homeschool our eleven-year-old son, and I spend
lots of time playing and doing things with him. I used to think of this as special time. Recently, however, I have
noticed that during many of those hours I have only part of my attention on him and am often distracted by things
that need doing. This past year I talked with him about setting aside a time when I would just follow his lead in play,
when he would get to decide what happened and how it happened. He liked the idea, so we arranged to do it once a
week for an hour, after his guitar lesson.
During the first few special times he wouldn’t be able to think of what he wanted to do with me or how he
wanted to use my full attention. I would get antsy and would have to stop myself from making suggestions. He
would often say, “Well, what would you like to do?” or “Let’s go do this; you’ll like this.” I started to notice what a
struggle it was for him to just want something for himself. He was always considering me first.
Often biting my tongue and sometimes failing, I tried to wait until he could figure out something that he really
wanted to do. During some of the first special times he decided to go shopping and just look at the things he wanted.
Recently he has chosen to use my attention to perfect skills — we go out and throw a baseball for an hour. Often I
have to stop myself from teaching or from asking him to keep trying when he is ready to move on quickly to something
else.
As the year continues, I watch my son become more confident and experiment more with how he can use me,
now that he knows he has me for a fixed time. If my attention wanders, he’ll remind me that it is his special time.
1.What does the author think is a key feature of “special time”?
A.Adequate time. B.Constant guidance. C.Undivided attention. D . Practical
arrangement.2.What does the underlined word “antsy” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Impatient. B.Ashamed. C.Thrilled. D.Confused.
3.What did the author’s son tend to do during the first few special times?
A.Carry out enjoyable activities. B.Follow the author’s suggestions.
C.Figure out what he wanted to do. D.Consider the author’s preferences.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Learning to Be a Wise Father B.The Magic of Companionship
C.More Than Just Being Together D.The Moment My Boy Found His Voice
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.D 4.C
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,通过“专属时光”的实践,作者反思了亲子陪伴的本质——真正的陪伴不是
物理上的共处,而是全神贯注的关注与尊重孩子的自主性。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段“My wife and I homeschool our eleven-year-old son, and I spend lots of time playing
and doing things with him. I used to think of this as special time.(我和妻子一起在家教育我们 11 岁的儿子,我
会花很多时间陪他玩耍,和他一起做各种事情。我过去一直把这种时光视为特别的相处时刻。)”可知,作
者认为“专属时光”的关键特点是不被分散的关注。故选C。
2.词句猜测题。根据第二段“During the first few special times he wouldn’t be able to think of what he wanted
to do with me or how he wanted to use my full attention.(在最开始的几次专属时光里,他要么想不出和我一起
做什么,要么不知道如何充分利用我全心全意的陪伴。)”可知,作者的儿子要么想不出和作者一起做什么,
要么不知道如何充分利用作者全心全意的陪伴,再根据第二段的“would have to stop myself from making
suggestions(还得强忍住不给他提建议)”可知,作者会变得不耐烦,还要强忍住不给儿子建议,antsy的意思
是“不耐烦的”,和impatient的意思相近。故选A。
3.细节理解题。根据第二段“He would often say, “Well, what would you like to do?” or “Let’s go do this; you’ll
like this.” I started to notice what a struggle it was for him to just want something for himself. He was always
considering me first.(他经常会说:“嗯,你想做什么呀?”或者“咱们去做这个吧,你会喜欢的。”我开始
留意到,对他来说,单纯为自己想要什么而争取是多么困难。他总是先考虑我。)”可知,在最初的几次专
属时光里,作者的儿子倾向于考虑作者的喜好。故选D。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是倒数第二段“Often biting my tongue and sometimes failing, I tried to wait
until he could figure out something that he really wanted to do. During some of the first special times he decided to
go shopping and just look at the things he wanted. Recently he has chosen to use my attention to perfect skills — we
go out and throw a baseball for an hour. Often I have to stop myself from teaching or from asking him to keep tryingwhen he is ready to move on quickly to something else.(我常常忍住不说,有时也会忍不住,努力等到他自己
想明白到底想做些什么。在最初几次特别的相处时光里,他决定去逛街,只是看看自己想要的东西。最近,
他选择借着我的陪伴来打磨技能 —— 我们会出门打了一个小时棒球。当他很快想转向别的事情时,我往
往得克制自己不去教他,也不去要求他继续坚持。)”和最后一段“As the year continues, I watch my son
become more confident and experiment more with how he can use me, now that he knows he has me for a fixed time.
If my attention wanders, he’ll remind me that it is his special time.(随着这一年时光的流逝,我看到儿子变得越
来越自信,也更勇于尝试利用我(的陪伴),因为他知道在固定的这段时间里,我是属于他的。如果我的
注意力不集中了,他会提醒我,这是他的专属时光。)”可知,本文通过“专属时光”的实践,作者反思了
亲子陪伴的本质——真正的陪伴不是物理上的共处,而是全神贯注的关注与尊重孩子的自主性,因此最恰
当的标题是C选项“More Than Just Being Together(不仅仅是相伴在一起)”。故选C。
Passage 5
(2026·高三·浙江湖丽衢·二模)
Two months into my Ph.D., I was on the verge of quitting. My broken English made it hard to keep up with
colleagues. At lab meetings, the conversation progressed so quickly that by the time I understood a question, the
discussion had already moved on. I once ruined an experiment due to misunderstanding instructions. In a presentation,
I embarrassed myself by confusing “gene dilution” with “gene deletion”. I felt out of place, uncertain about my future
in science.
I had moved to Hong Kong from the Chinese mainland, excited to become a scientist, but quickly felt
overwhelmed. The lab was full of complex instruments I had only ever seen in textbooks, and I had no idea how to
use them. Most of all, the language barrier made everything harder. Classes were taught in English, and I struggled
to follow the discussions.
After a particularly embarrassing presentation, a senior lab member pulled me aside and said, “You are not
here because of your English. You are here because you can think.” His words gave me the strength to continue. I
began recording every class and replaying the discussions at night. Slowly, my English improved, and I grew more
confident in expressing my ideas.
Years later, after training in Hong Kong, Canada, and the United States, I returned to my hometown to run my
own lab. My students all spoke Mandarin, and I assumed they wouldn’t struggle as much as I had because they didn’t
face the same language barrier. But I soon realized they too battled doubts about their careers and abilities. I realized
my job was to teach them to think critically and solve problems creatively, just as I had been taught. When I saw a
student struggling with an experiment, I told her, “You are not here because your experiments always work. You are
here because you can think.” Her smile told me she was encouraged by these words.Today, what I value most in my job is the transformation I see in the students who arrive uncertain, but who
leave with enough confidence to challenge me, their professor. For me, helping others cross the bridge is the true
reward of scientific life.
1.Why did the author almost quit her Ph.D.according to paragraph 1?
A.She disliked lab discussions. B.She lacked future plans in science.
C.She messed up her presentation. D.She struggled with language barriers.
2.What was the turning point for the author during her Ph.D.studies?
A.Her embarrassing presentation.
B.Returning to her hometown to run a lab.
C.The senior lab member’s supportive remark.
D.Moving to Hong Kong from the Chinese mainland.
3.Which word would best describe the author as a teacher?
A.Inspirational. B.Strict. C.Humorous. D.Authoritative.
4.What does the underlined phrase “cross the bridge” in the last paragraph refer to?
A.Travel between countries for education.B.Change from a student to a professor.
C.Grow from uncertainty to confidence. D.Build bonds between professors and students.
【答案】1.D 2.C 3.A 4.C

bridge 是科学生活的真正回报。)”中的“cross the bridge”指的是从迷茫不安走向自信的成长,故选C。
Passage 6
(2026·高三·湖北荆州市·二模)
It was December 22, 1987, when the doctor explained he was going to have to amputate (截肢) my right leg
before the aggressive cancer moved to my lungs. The doctor wanted me to do the surgery before Christmas.
I calmly asked him if he could guarantee me another Christmas. He shook his head sadly. I smiled, “Well, my
three-year-old is expecting Mommy to be there on Christmas morning to open presents with him. And I want one
more night of dancing on two legs with my husband. I’ve checked my calendar, and I’m free on January 6th. Will
that work for you?” His mouth opened, but no words came out. Finally, he nodded, “I’ll make that work.”
One day, after the surgery, I made my way to a store on my crutches (拐杖). I wandered around for a while
before deciding to leave. When I tried to push open the door to head back, nothing happened. The door was too heavy.
Seriously? This is what my life on one leg is going to be like? Now, I can’t even open a door for myself? Then, a man
appeared behind me. In a voice that was both soft and strong, he asked if he could help me with the door.
In that moment, I had a choice. I could have refused his help and insisted I could do it myself, which was a lie.
Or I could do what I did, which was to look up at him with gratitude and say, “Yes, please.” He smiled down at me,
and with one hand, he pushed it open for me. With relief beyond words, I said a simple “Thank you,” and his reply
helped shape my life as an amputee. He said, “You are so very welcome. It is entirely my pleasure.”
Up until losing my leg, I had always been the giver. Now, it was my turn to learn to accept help with grace.
Anyway, it is impossible to be a gracious giver if someone is not an equally gracious receiver.
1.Why did the author want to put off her surgery?
A.To select a special date.
B.To finish her previous job.
C.To spend a memorable holiday.D.To challenge the doctor’s work.
2. How did the author feel when she couldn’t open the door?
A.Upset. B.Frightened. C.Embarrassed. D.Confused.
3. Which of the following words can be used to describe the author?
A.Resigned and polite. B.Optimistic and adaptable.
C.Brave and independent. D.Determined and emotional.

A.It’s better to give than to receive.
B.When one door closes, another opens.
C.God helps those who help themselves.
D.The hand that receives honors the hand that gives.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者截肢前推迟手术及术后接受帮助,领悟到接受帮助的重要性。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段“I calmly asked him if he could guarantee me another Christmas. He shook his head
sadly. I smiled, “Well, my three-year-old is expecting Mommy to be there on Christmas morning to open presents
with him. And I want one more night of dancing on two legs with my husband.”(我平静地问他能否保证再让我过
一个圣诞节。他悲伤地摇摇头。我微笑着说:“嗯,我三岁的孩子正期待着妈妈在圣诞节早上和他一起打
开礼物。我还想和丈夫用两条腿再跳一晚的舞。”)”可知,作者想推迟手术是为了和家人度过一个难忘的
节日。故选C。
2.推理判断题。根据第三段“When I tried to push open the door to head back, nothing happened. The door was
too heavy. Seriously? This is what my life on one leg is going to be like? Now, I can’t even open a door for myself?
(当我试图推开门回去时,什么也没发生。门太重了。真的吗?这就是我一条腿的生活吗?现在,我连门都
打不开?)”可推知,作者打不开门时心情很沮丧。故选A。
3.推理判断题。根据第二段“I calmly asked him if he could guarantee me another Christmas.(我平静地问他
能否保证再让我过一个圣诞节)”以及第四段“Or I could do what I did, which was to look up at him with gratitude
and say, “Yes, please.” He smiled down at me, and with one hand, he pushed it open for me. With relief beyond
words, I said a simple “Thank you,” and his reply helped shape my life as an amputee.(或者我可以做我所做的,
那就是感激地抬头看着他,说:“好的,请。”他朝我微笑着,用一只手为我推开了门。我松了一口气,
说了一句简单的“谢谢”,他的回答塑造了我作为截肢者的生活)”可知,作者面对截肢噩耗时冷静地与医
生协商,术后从无法开门到学会优雅接受帮助,体现作者是乐观和适应力强的。故选B。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Now, it was my turn to learn to accept help with grace. Anyway, it is impossible tobe a gracious giver if someone is not an equally gracious receiver. (现在,轮到我学会优雅地接受帮助了。无论
如何,如果有人不是一个同样优雅的接受者,就不可能成为一个优雅的给予者。)”可知,作者从自己的经

之手尊重给予之手)”。故选D。
Passage 7
(2026·高三·广东广州市·二模)
When Mia Woods retired at 61, she knew she needed a plan. “I was worried about losing my identity as a
professional. What else can I be?” she thought.
The year before, she had been told she had a mild memory problem. “I was trying to show myself that I could
still think and be creative,” she says. So she decided to do — rather than be — something new: bake a pie every day
for a year and give each pie away. “It made me reach out every day to somebody, so I wouldn’t be alone. And it gave
me a routine,” she says.
She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager, Mia had moved in with her
aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect first pie,” she says. She went
on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a homeless man. As word spread, she got known as “the pie
lady”.
For more than 30 years, Mia had worked as a city planner. “I’m a planner by nature, training and profession.
What I really liked about it was that planning takes time, chaos, many different components, puts them all together
and makes them into something manageable.” She sees the same in baking pies: “You take a bunch of ingredients
and create something out of them.”
Twelve years on, Mia has continued to invent new projects, including writing a letter a day, and painting
pictures of her local sky. She is writing a book about the pie experience. But she has learned more than baking. “What
really came out of it was the understanding that I was someone who could do new things,” she reflects. “And my
professional identity wasn’t critical to who I am.”
“Even now, after I have an encounter with somebody, I think: ‘There’s a person I wish I could give a pie to.’”
says Mia.
1.What was Mia’s worry when she retired?
A.Her serious mental problem. B.Her being cut off from others.
C.Having no identity beyond career. D.Having to change her daily routine.
2.Why did Mia give her first pie to her aunt?
A.She had given Mia a home.B.She had cared for Mia’s mum.
C.She was the oldest in the family.
D.She had built Mia’s stable character.
3.What do city planning and baking pies have in common according to Mia?
A.Both require professional training. B.Both make sense of mixed elements.
C.Both create something out of nothing. D.Both connect people with one another.
4.What is Mia’s reflection on her experience?
A.Everyone in the world deserves a pie.
B.New challenges redefine who we are.
C.Opening up to changes takes courage.
D.Simple acts can bring people together.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.B 4.B
【导语】文章主要讲述了退休城市规划师米娅·伍兹为应对退休后可能失去职业身份认同的焦虑,通过每天
烤一个派并送给他人这一日常行动,重新认识自我价值、建立生活秩序并延续创造力的故事。
【详解】169.细节理解题。根据第一段““I was worried about losing my identity as a professional. What else
can I be?” she thought. (“我担心自己作为专业人士的身份会丧失。那我还能做些什么呢?”她这样想。)”可
知,她退休时的担忧是失去职业身份,害怕除了职业身份之外自己不知还能成为什么样的人。选项
C“Having no identity beyond career (除了职业之外没有其他身份认同)”与此直接对应。
1.细节理解题。根据第三段“She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager,
Mia had moved in with her aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect
first pie,” she says. She went on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a homeless man. As word
spread, she got known as “the pie lady”. (她做了第一个馅饼,并送给了她 88 岁的姑妈卡罗尔。在十几岁的
时候,米娅曾因母亲生病而搬到了姑妈家。那时的姑妈家给了她一种稳定的环境……把第一个馅饼送给姑
妈是最合适的选择。她继续把馅饼送给以前的同事、杂货店店员,甚至一个无家可归的人。随着消息的传
播,她被称为“馅饼女士”。)”可知,米娅年少时因母亲生病而搬去与姨妈一家同住,姨妈家为她提供了
稳定的家庭环境。她把第一个派送给姨妈,是因为姨妈曾给予她一个家、一份依靠,这符合选项 A“She
had given Mia a home (她曾给米娅一个家)”的表述。
2.推理判断题。根据第四段““I’m a planner by nature, training and profession. What I really liked about it was
that planning takes time, chaos, many different components, puts them all together and makes them into something
manageable.” She sees the same in baking pies: “You take a bunch of ingredients and create something out of
them.”( “我天生就是个规划师,这是我的训练和职业。我真正喜欢的是规划工作,规划需要时间,它要把混乱和众多不同的要素整合起来,使之变得井然有序。”她在烘焙馅饼时也发现了同样的道理:“你将各种食
材混合在一起,就能创造出新的成果。”)”可知,通过米娅的类比,两者的共同之处在于都是将纷繁杂乱
的不同元素组合成有序、有意义的整体,即选项B“Both make sense of mixed elements (两者都让混合的元素
变得有条理) ”。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““What really came out of it was the understanding that I was someone who
could do new things,” she reflects. “And my professional identity wasn’t critical to who I am.”(最重要的是,这件
事让我明白自己能够尝试新事物,”她回忆道,“而且我的职业身份并不决定我的本质。”)”可知,她通
过尝试新事物认识到自己有能力应对改变,并重新定义了自我价值,不局限于职业身份。这体现了选项
B“New challenges redefine who we are (新挑战重新定义了我们是谁)”的内涵。
Passage 8
(2026·高三·广东深圳市·二模)
At dinnertime, if I’m anywhere near my favourite restaurant, there’s not a chance you can talk me into going
somewhere else — I want to eat at China Fun. Actually, I have been eating at this restaurant for 17 years.
Don’t get me wrong, trying new things is great, and I love exploring. But the pressure to always keep trying
new things ignores the satisfaction of finding our loves and keeping on loving them. That’s why I dislike pop-up
restaurants. I’d much rather invest my time and money in a place that will still be here next month, working my way
through the menu to find my favourite dishes, and figuring out which is the best table. In a chaotic world, being a
regular makes me feel that there are always places where things stay the same.
In my mental map of the city, I mark all my favourites — cute bookshops, hidden gardens, and the hotdog
stand that’s open only at weekends. To be a regular is to let a place become a character in your life. The act of
returning builds connection, and a sense of being at home as you settle in and share a nod with the waiter before he
asks if you’ll be having the usual.
Some things just get better the more you do them. While relaxing weekends offer the promise of finding
country paths for a wander, I would prefer revisiting a beloved walking route as the seasons turn, noticing the
subtle (微妙的) changes in the same place. I’ve walked along the Thames a hundred times, but the banks look
different each time as the tides move to reveal or conceal (隐藏). It feels like spending time with a friend. The river
is alive, and each time we meet, we grow closer.
I discovered a little local café recently. After several visits, Kirsty, the resident café cat, has finally started
acknowledging my presence. The other repeat customers have also started nodding at me. They were here first and
this is their café. Now they seem to be saying, “Have a seat, stay a while, and come back soon.”
1.What does the author’s restaurant preference show?A.He is a creature of habit. B.He is strictly self-disciplined.
C.He loves exploring new things. D.He favours Asian cuisine most.
2.What does the underlined word “character” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A.Reward. B.Souvenir. C.Symbol. D.Companion.
3.How does the author find the walking route along the Thames?
A.Crowded but comforting. B.Familiar but refreshing.
C.Winding but approachable. D.Exhausting but adventurous.
4.What message does this text mainly convey?
A.Satisfaction exists in the present. B.Shared experiences build bonds.
C.Possibilities hide in the unknown. D.Repeat visits deepen appreciation.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.B 4.D

1.细节理解题。根据第一段“Actually, I have been eating at this restaurant for 17 years.(事实上,我在这家餐
厅吃了17年了)”以及第二段“In a chaotic world, being a regular makes me feel that there are always places where
things stay the same. (在这个混乱的世界里,经常去一个地方让我觉得总有一些地方是一成不变的)”可知,作
者喜欢去常去的餐厅,这表明他是一个习惯于常规的人。
2.词句猜测题。根据第三段“To be a regular is to let a place become a character in your life. The act of returning
builds connection, and a sense of being at home as you settle in and share a nod with the waiter before he asks if
you’ll be having the usual. (经常去一个地方就是让这个地方成为你生活中的character。回来的行为建立了联
系,让你有一种宾至如归的感觉,在你安顿下来,和服务员点头示意之后,他才会问你是否还像往常一
样)”可知,作者认为经常去一个地方会让这个地方成为生活中的一个陪伴者,character在此处指“陪伴者,
同伴”,与companion意义相近。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段“While relaxing weekends offer the promise of finding country paths for a wander,
I would prefer revisiting a beloved walking route as the seasons turn, noticing the subtle (微妙的) changes in the
same place. I’ve walked along the Thames a hundred times, but the banks look different each time as the tides move to
reveal or conceal (隐藏). (虽然放松的周末提供了找到乡间小路漫步的希望,但随着季节的变化,我更愿意重
新审视一条心爱的步行路线,注意到同一个地方微妙的变化。我沿着泰晤士河走了一百次,但每次潮汐移
动时,河岸看起来都不一样)”可知,作者认为泰晤士河沿岸的步行路线既熟悉又每次都有新发现,即熟悉
但令人耳目一新。
4.推理判断题。根据全文内容,尤其是最后一段“After several visits, Kirsty, the resident café cat, has finally
started acknowledging my presence. The other repeat customers have also started nodding at me. They were herefirst and this is their café. Now they seem to be saying, “Have a seat, stay a while, and come back soon.”(经过几次
拜访,咖啡馆的常客猫咪Kirsty终于开始注意到我的存在了。其他常客也开始向我点头。他们先来的,这
是他们的咖啡馆。现在他们似乎在说:“请坐,待一会儿,很快就回来。”)”以及文章内容可知,本文围绕
反复回访喜爱的餐馆、步道、小店展开,主要传达的信息是重复到访能加深对事物的欣赏。
Passage 9
(2026·高三·广东汕头市·二模)
The moment I slid into the car, Mom hit me with the news: I was to spend the afternoon with Grandpa while
she attended a meeting. My protest was immediate, but in vain, as Dad was also away on business.
When we entered Grandpa’s apartment, he sat before the television. Not long after Mom left, an awkward
stillness settled between us. When I tried to find a comfortable position on the worn sofa, my foot hit something solid
under the furniture, and I pulled out a wooden box. Grandpa glanced over, “Oh — my chess set.” I really didn’t know
Grandpa used to play chess. I just knew a boy in my class played and entered tournaments.
After a thoughtful pause, he offered to teach me. Grandpa introduced each piece — the king’s deliberate steps,
the queen that “zips all over”, knights tracing L-shaped paths. He made me name them all and demonstrate their
moves repeatedly, correcting my bad moves with unexpected patience.
During our first game, he explained every move, revealing strategic possibilities and warning against traps. I
was confused by the interconnected nature of the game — how each move opened countless possibilities. Just when
I thought I’d made a smart move, he would capture my piece. Eventually, he announced checkmate, my king cornered
and immobile. Game after game, I lost, but each lasted a little longer.
Mom’s return interrupted our game. “Chess? Did you take it easy on him, Dad?”
“Absolutely not. That’s not how learning works.”
She shot him a disapproving glance, but Grandpa added, “He did well. He learned a lot.”
Grandpa was right. The game revealed a truth beyond the board — life, like chess, is a web of connections
where each choice shapes what follows. The rigid lines between us had softened, replaced by something unspoken
yet real. When I thanked Grandpa for the chess lesson, he smiled in recognition — the first time I could ever remember
seeing him do so.
1.What was the relationship between the author and his Grandpa before that afternoon?
A.Distant. B.Close. C.Bitter. D.Harmonious.
2.What does the underlined word “checkmate” most likely mean?
A.A person who checks the result.
B.A situation where no move remains.C.A position where the king stays.
D.A move that captures one of the knights.
3.Why wouldn’t Grandpa go easy on the author?
A.To express his disapproval.
B.To help the author improve quickly.
C.To reveal a truth to the author.
D.To show interconnected nature of the game.
4.What is the best title for the passage?
A.A Strict Grandpa. B.A Connecting Web.
C.A Newly-formed Bond. D.A Pleasant Chess Lesson.
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.B 4.C
【导语】主要讲述作者被迫在下午陪爷爷,一开始两人相处尴尬,后来爷爷教作者下国际象棋,作者在失
败中学习,最后两人关系改善,作者领悟到生活和象棋一样,选择会影响后续发展,一种新的情感纽带在
两人间形成。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段“The moment I slid into the car, Mom hit me with the news: I was to spend the
afternoon with Grandpa while she attended a meeting. My protest was immediate(我一上车,妈妈就告诉我这个
消息:她去开会的时候,我要和爷爷共度下午。我立刻表示抗议)”及第二段“Not long after Mom left, an
awkward stillness settled between us.(妈妈离开后不久,一种尴尬的寂静在我们之间蔓延开来)”可知,作者起
初抗拒和爷爷待在一起,两人相处尴尬,说明在那个下午之前作者和爷爷关系疏远。
2.词句猜测题。根据第四段“my king cornered and immobile(我的“国王”被困住,无法移动)”可知,
“checkmate”指的是一种局面,在这种局面下,一方的“国王”被逼迫到角落无法移动,也就是没有可走
的棋了,所以“checkmate”最有可能的意思是“没有棋可走的局面”。
3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“He did well. He learned a lot.(他下得很好。学到了很多)”可知,爷爷不让
着作者,是想帮助作者快速提升。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,并结合最后一段中“The rigid lines between us had softened, replaced by something
unspoken yet real. When I thanked Grandpa for the chess lesson, he smiled in recognition — the first time I could
ever remember seeing him do so.(我和爷爷之间原本僵硬疏远的关系慢慢变得柔和,多了一份无声却真切的亲
情。当我向爷爷道谢时,他欣慰地笑了,那是我记忆里第一次看到他笑)”可知,主要讲述作者被迫在下午
陪爷爷,一开始两人相处尴尬,后来爷爷教作者下国际象棋,作者在失败中学习,最后两人关系改善,一
种新的情感纽带在两人间形成。C选项“一种新形成的纽带”为最佳标题。
Passage 10(2026·高三·湖南湘潭市·二模)
We initiated the bus trips when I was around seven years old. Back then, we lived at our grandparents’ house
in Oceanside, California. Our financial situation became increasingly strained after my father, who had dedicated
over two decades to serving in the U.S. Air Force, honorably retired and subsequently encountered challenges in
securing a stable position in the civilian workforce. We were also struggling to find an affordable place to call our
own.
It would have been easy to give in to frustration. But mom had other ideas, using the situation to give my
brother Jess and me fond memories that would affect our perspective forever. However, I only appreciated the full
extent of her wisdom many years later.
Once or twice a week, she would lead us to the bus stop, and from there we would “see the world”. The public
transportation system was extensive, and with one ticket we could ride all day. My mom studied the routes carefully
and guided us to a variety of destinations.
Among our favorites was the mall in Carlsbad. At its center stood a glass clock tower with gears (齿轮) that
rolled plastic balls along rails, bouncing them onto drums and ramps, then lifting them up again to repeat the cycle.
The sight always drew a small crowd, mostly children. On other days, we took the bus to Strand Beach, where we
watched ships in the distance and heard helicopters and aircraft soaring overhead toward the naval (海军的) base at
Camp Pendleton.
Every trip we took felt like a grand expedition, and I was grateful to my mom for making that difficult period so
enjoyable. Eventually, my father found a steady job, and we moved into a home in the countryside.
My mom did more than distract us from our troubles. She instilled in us enthusiasm for keeping our eyes open
and appreciating the world that was ours without having to really pay anything. Most importantly, she showed us that
regardless of where we were, and what we were going through, there was something we could smile about
somewhere.
1.Why did the family face difficulties?
A.The father lost his job in the U.S. Air Force.
B.The family had no fixed place of residence.
C.They lived far away from the city.
D.They lacked financial stability.
2.What was the mother’s primary purpose of the trip?
A.To build a positive attitude to the world.
B.To promote her husband at the naval base.C.To find a new home in the countryside.
D.To explore job opportunities in Carlsbad.
3.What does the author most appreciate about his mom now?
A.Her knowledge of public transportation.
B.Her skill in planning detailed travel routes.
C.Her wisdom in shaping their outlook on life.
D.Her patience during their financial struggles.
4.Which word best describes the mother?
A.Ambitious. B.Resourceful.
C.Adventurous. D.Protective.

母亲在家庭经济困难的情况下,利用公共交通系统,带孩子们去不同的地方,给孩子们留下了美好的回忆,
塑造了孩子们积极的人生观。由此推知,母亲是足智多谋的。故选B。

Passage 1
(2026·高三·江苏南通市·二模)
Night after night, a familiar pair makes their rounds at an apartment community: a woman collecting trash,
and her loyal dog, Princess. Rain or shine, the woman performs this essential, though difficult, job, always accompanied
by her faithful companion.
One resident, Olivia Perkins, was especially touched by their routine and the bond between the woman and
her dog. She began filming short clips of the two working together, and eventually decided to surprise her with a
thoughtful gift: a matching safety vest (马甲) for Princess so they could work together safely — and in style. In a
heartfelt moment captured on video, the woman gently puts the vest on her dog, smiling as she thanks Perkins, clearly
moved by the gesture.
Perkins shared the video online, hoping to spread some warmth. The response, however, grew far beyond her
expectations. Viewers were not only charmed by the bond between the woman and her dog but also impressed by herdedication and positive attitude. The video went viral. The woman's daughter-in-law recognized her online and shared
more of her story.
People soon learned the woman was navigating particularly tough times. Going through a personal transition,
she had recently sold her vehicle to afford one reliable enough for work. She and Princess were living in a small,
worn-down apartment, working hard to make ends meet. Yet, as Perkins noted, she faced each day with a smile and
a kind word for everyone.
Moved by her resilience (坚韧) and the overwhelming online response, Perkins started a fundraiser to help
ease some of her financial strain. The fundraiser quickly surpassed its goal, offering crucial support. “Please be kind.
Everyone is dealing with something they do not speak about and will still show up to work every day,” said Perkins.
“The people that work behind the scenes are the ones that need all the praise. Small jobs are the most important
stories that always go unnoticed and get the least amount of thank you.”
The story, which began with a simple vest, became a powerful reminder. It showed how a single act of kindness,
recognizing the dignity in another's work and struggle, can ripple outward. Sometimes, seeing and appreciating one
person's quiet strength can inspire a community to help them carry their load.
1.What does the underlined part “the gesture” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.The dog-human bond. B.Perkins’s gift-giving act.
C.Putting the vest on the dog. D.Filming the woman working.
2.What is mainly talked about in paragraph 4?
A.What makes the video go viral. B.How the woman found empathy.
C.What the follow-up video reveals. D.How the woman struggled with life.
3.What can we learn from Perkins’s words?
A.Financial support is crucial to everyone.
B.Service workers deserve respect too.
C.People behind the scenes pay.
D.Small jobs are of little value.
4.What message does the story convey?
A.Loyal pets will serve as great companions.
B.Positive attitude will lead to eventual success.
C.Social media can bring about effective solutions.
D.Kindness often starts with the simplest gestures.

斯说。“在幕后工作的人是最需要赞扬的人。小工作是最重要的故事,却总是被忽视,得到的感谢也最
少。”)”可知,珀金斯认为服务工作者也应该得到尊重。
4.主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“The story, which began with a simple vest, became a powerful reminder. It
showed how a single act of kindness, recognizing the dignity in another's work and struggle, can ripple outward.
Sometimes, seeing and appreciating one person's quiet strength can inspire a community to help them carry their

作和奋斗中的尊严,可以向外扩散。有时候,看到并欣赏一个人的安静力量可以激励整个社区来帮助他们
分担负担)”可知,文章传达的主要信息是善良往往始于最简单的举动。
Passage 2
(2026·高三·浙江嘉兴市·二模)They say that the truth comes out of the children’s mouth, and that truth is sometimes more upsetting than we
realize. Jen Adams Beason, a 2nd-grade teacher from Louisiana, witnessed this when she asked her students to write
about an invention that they didn’t like, or an invention that they wish would have never seen the light of day.
Jen has 21 students, and she was absolutely heartbroken when she noticed that four of her students shared the
same invention: the smartphone. With dozens of notifications (通知) from apps, emails, and social media updates, it
could be hard not to look at your phone for longer than five minutes.
Jen shared a boy’s essay on her Facebook page. “I hate my mom’s phone and I wish she never had one. That
is an invention that I don’t like.” The essay is even accompanied by a sad and angry face saying “I hate it,” looking
at a drawn phone with a cross through it.
“I had my 2nd graders write about an invention that they wish had never been created. Out of 21 students, 4
of them wrote about this topic. # getoffyourphone # listentoyourkids,” Jen posted on her Facebook wall.
Her message was seen by millions and even shared 300,000 times. It received dozens of eye-opening comments.
“That is so sad. Great reminder for us all to put those phones down and engage with our kids more,” Tracy Jenkins
posted.
Luckily, it seems that awareness about smartphone addiction is increasing. Both iPhones and smartphones
running on a recent Android operating system will soon include features to monitor, control and restrict your personal
smartphone use for your own health.
Still, it’s interesting to see that parents’ concerns about their children becoming addicted to smartphones and
other smart devices, are also perfectly true the other way around.

A.Parents’ overuse of their phones.
B.Parents’ dislike for their children.
C.Children’s resistance to social media.
D.Children’s poor performance in writing.

Passage 3
(2026·高三·安徽芜湖市·二模)Liu Lingli, a special education educator from Hengyang, Hunan Province, has committed over two decades to
aiding children with hearing disabilities. Back in 2005, she founded a rehabilitation (康复) program for deaf children
at the local special education school, where she instructs not only core academic subjects but also oral communication
skills.
For children with hearing loss, acquiring speech proficiency poses an extremely difficult challenge. Liu
establishes a distinctive methodology: she places each student’s hands on her throat to help them detect the vibrations
of her vocal cords. Furthermore, she designs “lip and tongue training drill” to strengthen students’ speech organs. In
addition, she arranges outdoor trips to the local marketplace, stimulating students to apply verbal skills in authentic
contexts.
Her efforts have revolutionized the lives of numerous young individuals. Over 80 of her students have
successfully attended regular schools. One former pupil, Li Ming, now works as a chef and interacts with his
colleagues fluently without any difficulty. Another student, Xiao Ya, proceeds to pursue advanced studies in fine arts
at a university. “Miss Liu once reminded us that being deaf does not equal being incapable,” Xiao Ya recalled.
Liu’s work schedule typically extends from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. Apart from teaching, she provides assistance to
students in daily activities such as personal hygiene maintenance and feeding. What remains unfamiliar to the public
is that Liu also has a son suffering from severe hearing loss. For years, she devoted her evenings to teaching him to
speak by employing the identical techniques she adopted in class. Presently, her son has the capacity to communicate
normally and attends a mainstream school. When questioned whether the work is exhausting, she smiles and replies,
“Witnessing a child utter ‘Mom’ distinctly for the first time — that genuine fulfillment proves all my efforts
worthwhile.” Her inspiring experience has motivated countless young people across China to pursue careers in the
field of special education.

Passage 4
(2026·高三·安徽池州市·二模)
In 2025, Liu Jiakun, a world-famous architect (建筑师), was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize, the
highest honor in the field of architecture, becoming the second Chinese to win such recognition.
Liu’s road to architecture was not smooth. He grew up in a family of doctors, but he was always interested inart. He spent his childhood drawing and reading, which laid a solid foundation for his later career. Before entering
college in 1978, he had worked as an “educated youth” in the countryside for five years. This period of tough work
and close observation of farmers’ life gave him a deep understanding of the needs of ordinary people. He learned to
see beauty in simplicity and to value the connection between humans and the environment — lessons that would
become the core of his building idea.
Liu’s works are famous for combining tradition with modernity and respecting the local environment. He
advocates the “low-tech strategy”, using local and cheap materials to create comfortable and practical spaces. He
recycles materials from earthquake ruins to make “recycled bricks”, which are used in many reconstruction projects.
His well-known works include West Village Courtyard and Luye Garden Stone Carving Art Museum, which show
his love for his hometown and care for people.
Liu’s love for creation and care for people finally made him stand out in the world. As he put it, architecture
should show the inner beauty of a place and connect people with their homes. His works not only bring comfort to
people’s life, but also pass on Chinese culture to the world. “My education was not just about drawing blueprints,”
Liu recalled in an interview. “It was about learning how to use architecture to tell the stories of the people I grew up
with.”
1.What can we learn about Liu from the first two paragraphs?
A.He longed to be a doctor. B.He was good at observing.
C.He dropped out of university. D.He was the first Pritzker winner.
2.What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A.Liu’s youth and education background. B.Liu’s concern about the environment.
C.Liu’s method of collecting materials. D.Liu’s building idea and typical works.
3.What does Liu think architects should do?

Passage 5
(2026·高三·江西九江市·二模)
A teacher explained on social media that for nearly 30 years, she’s used the same approach with students who
already arrive with a reputation. You know the ones — the kids every teacher hears about before the school year even
begins.
Instead of pretending she hasn’t heard the warnings, she does something unexpected.
Before the year starts, she finds out who those “notorious” (名声在外的) students are — not to judge them,
but to understand them. Then she visits their former teachers and asks just one question: “I know they were difficult,
but what’s something good about them?” Sometimes it’s “he’s a good football player,” or “she’s a talented artist.” All
she needs is one strength.
On the first day of class when that student walked in, she greeted him with, “I’ve heard about you.” At this
point, the kid was ready for the usual speech: “You’d better not cause trouble in my class…” But she changed the
script. “You’re that great football player I’ve been hearing about.” Instantly, his whole face changed. From there, shepraised him in class and told him, “If you keep this up all week, I’m calling your mom or dad with good news.”
The 13-year-old boy’s mother initially avoided her call, assuming it was bad news. Instead of complaining,
the teacher flipped the script. When told her son was amazing, the mother cried. The teacher caught him being good
and that kid spent the rest of the year trying to live up to that version of himself.
Good news is powerful. And that lesson goes far beyond the classroom. Finding the good isn’t just for teachers
working with “troubled” students. It can transform families, friendships, workplaces, and every part of life.
1.Why does the teacher ask about “notorious” students?
A.To figure out their advantage.
B.To know their academic results.
C.To confirm their bad reputation.
D.To check their family background.
2.What can we infer about the student from paragraph 4?
A.He didn’t get along with his parents.
B.He got used to being negatively judged.
C.He was well-known among all the teachers.
D.He was a trouble-maker in the teacher’s class.
3.What does the underlined phrase “flipped the script” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Wrote a better play script.
B.Recorded their conversation.
C.Changed the usual approach.
D.Expressed her disappointment.
4.What does the teacher’s story teach us?
A.Aim high, reach high. B.Learn more, know more.
C.See good, get good. D.Speak clear, hear clear.
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.C 4.C

点来改变他们,进而强调发现美好的力量不仅限于教育领域,还可以影响生活的方方面面。
1.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Then she visits their former teachers and asks just one question: “I know they
were difficult, but what’s something good about them?” Sometimes it’s “he’s a good football player,” or “she’s a
talented artist.” All she needs is one strength.(然后,她会拜访他们以前的老师,只问一个问题:“我知道他们
很难相处,但他们有什么优点呢?”有时是“他是个优秀的足球运动员”,或者“她是个有才华的艺术家”。她所需要的只是一点优势)可知,老师询问“名声在外”的学生是为了找出他们的优点。故选A项。
2.推理判断题。根据第四段中“On the first day of class when that student walked in, she greeted him with, “I’ve
heard about you.” At this point, the kid was ready for the usual speech: “You’d better not cause trouble in my
class…”(第一天上课的时候,那个学生走进来,她跟他打招呼说:“我听说过你。”此时,孩子已经准备
好听那套老生常谈:“你最好不要在我的课上捣乱……”)可知,这个学生认为老师会给他警告,说明他已
经习惯了被负面评价。故选B项。
3.词句猜测题。根据第五段中“The 13-year-old boy’s mother initially avoided her call, assuming it was bad
news. Instead of complaining, the teacher flipped the script. When told her son was amazing, the mother cried.(这
位13岁男孩的母亲起初不接她的电话,以为是坏消息。老师没有抱怨,而是“flipped the script”。当被告知
她的儿子很棒时,母亲哭了)可知,母亲原本以为老师打电话来是抱怨孩子的问题,但老师却表扬了孩子,
所以“flipped the script”意思是“改变了通常的做法”。故选C项。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Good news is powerful. And that lesson goes far beyond the classroom. Finding
the good isn’t just for teachers working with “troubled” students. It can transform families, friendships, workplaces,
and every part of life.(好消息是强大的。这一教训远远超出了课堂的范围。发现美好不仅仅是为了那些与“问
题学生”打交道的老师。它可以改变家庭、友谊、工作场所和生活的方方面面)可知,老师的故事告诉我们
看到好的方面,就会得到好的结果。故选C项。
Passage 6
(2026·高三·山东泰安市·二模)
TAfter ten years in London, I recently relocated to Berlin, and as is customary when making new friends, the
question “Where are you from?” tends to come up. My honest answer would be, “I don’t really know.”
The truth is, most of us TCKs (Third Culture Kids) — a term coined to describe “children who move between
cultures before they have had the opportunity to fully develop their personal and cultural identity” — had no choice
growing up but to follow our parents around the world. We’d often be told, “Pack your bags, kids. We’re moving!”
and in the blink of an eye, everything would change.
By the time I was 18, I had changed schools 10 times, moved countries at least 6 times, acquired a confusing
accent, and developed both a love of travel and a desire for stability. Being an Indonesian-Italian, I often felt an
identity crisis weighing on me in my teens.
Moving to a new country after spending ten years in the UK — the longest I have lived anywhere — has brought
back feelings of this cultural confusion. Growing up as a TCK isn’t as charming as many people would expect. It is
both a blessing and a curse (诅咒), beautiful but unpredictable, and full of adventures. This lack of roots and stability
will likely cause issues later in life.Yet kids are adaptable. After overcoming culture shock, you start to adjust and see the bigger picture. You learn
that the world is much bigger than you, and that your problems are small. You also learn responsibility, respect
different beliefs, and form your own opinions. Making friends and then losing touch teaches you that everything is
temporary.
Growing up as a TCK, you rarely realize how adaptable you are, until your older friends often comment on
how “wise and mature” you are for your age. Travelling from a young age opens your eyes beyond
“Hypernormalization”. It teaches that diversity is nothing to be afraid of. Growing up as a TCK was tough, but I
wouldn’t trade it for anything. It has shaped me to be the person that I am today — an actual “citizen of the world”.
1.How does the author usually respond to “Where are you from”?
A.By stating her nationality directly. B.By admitting her uncertainty honestly.
C.By explaining the TCK concept briefly. D.By describing her experiences in detail.
2.What does the author say about TCKs’ childhood?
A.They enjoyed planning their moves.
B.They resisted their parents’ decisions.
C.They maintained their personal lifestyle.
D.They were forced to adapt to sudden changes.
3.Which of the following can best describe TCKs’ experiences?
A.Tough and confusing. B.Peaceful and predictable.
C.Routine but eye-opening. D.Adventurous but beneficial.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Growing up as a TCK B.Challenges for Migration
C.How to Become a Global Citizen D.How to Adapt to Diverse Cultures
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.D 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章结合作者的经历讲述第三文化孩子(TCKs)的成长经历、面临的困惑

Passage 7
(2026·高三·河南南阳市·二模)
Jacques Richter, a teacher at Northwood School, was chatting with a parent when the mom mentioned threeold bikes sitting disused and that her kids had outgrown them. It all started with that throwaway line. Richter felt a
sudden idea. “What if we fix them up and pass them on?”
It was 2024, Northwood’s 75th anniversary, and Richter wanted to do something meaningful. When he brought
the idea to his cycling team, it landed in fertile ground. All team members loved the proposal and ran with it. “Let’s go
for 75,” one student suggested. “One for each year.” And so the “75 Bikes” project was born.
Word spread. Old bikes started showing up, loose frames, missing wheels and flat tires. The students didn’t
see junk. They saw challenges. Every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon, the workshop was full of life. Tools made
noise. They made mistakes and bikes had to be taken apart more than once. They were not professional mechanics.
But efforts paid off. Bit by bit, the pile of broken bikes thinned out, and the row of shiny, rideable bikes grew.
Then they knew Keletso, a young man working at a local supermarket. His only way there was an old bike
without brakes (刹车). The students picked out their best repair, a solid blue bike with smooth gears and strong
brakes. When they handed it over, Keletso’s face broke into a wide smile. At that moment, the students understood
something no classroom could teach. A bike isn’t just a bike. For someone like Keletso, it’s freedom.
By year’s end, they had donated over 25 bikes, still short of 75, but they weren’t stopping. “We set out to give
away bicycles,” Richter said. “What we got back was so much more.”
1.What inspired the initial idea of “75 Bikes” project?
A.A casual chat. B.A team discussion.
C.A careful plan. D.A student’s dream.
2.What does the underlined phrase “landed in fertile ground” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A.Got quickly forgotten. B.Received strong support.
C.Caused a heated debate. D.Needed repeated checking.
3.What can be inferred from the students’ bike repair process?
A.Efforts bridge the skill gap. B.Students are born mechanics.
C.Repairing is beyond students. D.Professional guidance matters.
4.What does the story show?
A.Opportunity knocks but once.
B.Well begun is half done.
C.Giving is better than receiving.
D.It’s never too late to learn.
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.A 4.C
【导语】本文主要讲的是北伍德学校教师Jacques Richter受家长提及的三辆闲置旧自行车启发,在学校75周年校庆之际,与自行车队学生共同发起“75辆自行车”项目。
1.细节理解题。根据第一段“Jacques Richter, a teacher at Northwood School, was chatting with a parent when
the mom mentioned three old bikes sitting disused and that her kids had outgrown them. It all started with that
throwaway line. Richter felt a sudden idea. “What if we fix them up and pass them on?”(北伍德学校的教师
Jacques Richter正与一位家长交谈时,那位母亲提到家里有三辆闲置的旧自行车——孩子们已经长大,用
不上了。正是这句无心之言,点燃了Richter的灵感。“我们何不把它们修好,转赠给需要的人呢?”)”可
知,“75 辆自行车”项目的最初构想是受到一次随意的交谈启发的。
2.词句猜测题。根据第二段“All team members loved the proposal and ran with it. “Let’s go for 75,” one
student suggested. “One for each year.” And so the “75 Bikes” project was born.(所有队员都喜爱这个提议,并
立即行动起来。“咱们就定75辆吧,”一名学生提议道,“每年一辆。”于是,“75辆自行车”项目诞
生了。)”可知,当他提出这个想法的时候得到了很多人的支持,landed in fertile ground的意思是“得到强
烈的支持”,和Received strong support意思相近。
3.推理判断题。根据第三段“They were not professional mechanics. But efforts paid off. Bit by bit, the pile of
broken bikes thinned out, and the row of shiny, rideable bikes grew.(他们并非专业机械师,但他们的努力有了
回报。渐渐地,那堆破旧自行车的数量减少了,而一排闪亮、可骑行的自行车则越来越多。)”可知,从学
生们进行自行车修理的过程当中,可以推断出努力缩小了技能差距。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“By year’s end, they had donated over 25 bikes, still short of 75, but they
weren’t stopping. “We set out to give away bicycles,” Richter said. “What we got back was so much more.”(到年
底时,他们已经捐赠了25多辆自行车,离75辆的目标还有差距,但他们并未就此止步。“我们原本只是
打算赠送自行车,”Richter说,“但我们得到的回报却远不止于此。”)”可知,他们在捐赠自行车的过程
中收获的更多,因此这个故事说明了给予比接受更好。
Passage 8
(2026·高三·湖南永州市·二模)
In a university rehearsal hall, he performs Xinjiang’s eagle dance gracefully, across the globe, he wanders
museums and art galleries, seeking the beauty of distant cultures and long-lost histories. This may seem the daily life
of an artist, but in reality, it belongs to Dawulijan Yerhalik,a young archaeologist (考古学家) who “converses with
the earth” and devotes himself to uncovering Xinjiang’s ancient secrets.
Born in Hutubi County, Xinjiang, Dawulijan spent his high school years in Suzhou and studied archaeology
at Peking University for a full decade, finally earning his doctoral degree. His career path took clear shape in Professor
Lin Meicun’s Silk Road Archaeology class: a slide of Xinjiang’s Kangjia Shimenzi Petroglyphs (岩画) left himastonished by his lack of knowledge about his hometown’s precious heritage. In that very moment, a deep connection
to archaeology was established, and he determined to focus on Silk Road and Xinjiang archaeological research.
His fieldwork journey started at the Tonggusibaxi Site in Aksu, where he perfected foundational skills like soil
texture identification and trowel use under Professor Chen Ling’s careful guidance. He finds excavating sites (发掘
遗址) used across multiple historical periods the most complex yet fascinating part of the work, as each layer reveals
unique traces of ancient human activity. In 2024, his team made a landmark discovery at the Tangchaodun site —
pieces of Chinese-written Buddhist scrolls. It was the first time such items had been found in the northern Tianshan
foothills, providing critical material for studying how Buddhist texts spread in the Western Regions.
For Dawulijan, Xinjiang is a unique archaeological treasure, and his work is a sacred mission to tell Xinjiang’s
rich and vivid stories to the world.
1.The underlined word “converses” in Paragraph 1 probably means ________.
A.Cooperates. B.Competes. C.Communicates. D.Compares.
2.How did Dawulijan feel during Professor Lin’s class?
A.Impressed. B.Hesitant. C.Uninterested. D.Confident.
3.What does the appeal of multi-period excavation sites lie in?
A.Possibility of making landmark discoveries.
B.Chance to polish essential archaeological skills.
C.Rare cultural relics native to northern Tianshan.
D.Unique traces of ancient human activity in each layer.
4.What does Dawulijan’s experience show?
A.High-tech skills are key to professional success.
B.Awards are the best proof of one’s professional value.
C.Love for your roots contributes to a meaningful calling.
D.Preserving cultural heritage is everyone’s shared mission.
【答案】1.C 2.A 3.D 4.C

uncovering Xinjiang’s ancient secrets.(这般生活,看似是艺术家的日常,实则属于Dawulijan Yerhalik——一位以“与大地……”为使命、潜心探寻新疆古老奥秘的青年考古学家。)”可知,“converses with the earth”是
对考古学家Dawulijan工作的形象描述,其核心是通过考古发掘探寻大地之下的新疆古老奥秘,即考古学
家从大地中挖掘历史信息,如同与大地“交流、对话”。故选C。
2.推理判断题。根据文章第二段“His career path took clear shape in Professor Lin Meicun’s Silk Road
Archaeology class: a slide of Xinjiang’s Kangjia Shimenzi Petroglyphs (岩画) left him astonished by his lack of
knowledge about his hometown’s precious heritage.(他的职业方向,在林梅村教授的丝绸之路考古课堂上逐渐
明晰:课堂上,一张新疆康家石门子岩画的幻灯片,让他惊觉自己对家乡珍贵的文化遗产竟知之甚少。)”
可知,在林教授的课堂上,新疆康家石门子岩画的幻灯片让他为自己对家乡珍贵文化遗产的无知感到震惊,
这份震惊也让他与考古学结下羁绊,坚定了研究方向,可见他在课堂上受到了极大的触动。故选A。
3.细节理解题。根据文章第三段“He finds excavating sites (发掘遗址) used across multiple historical periods
the most complex yet fascinating part of the work, as each layer reveals unique traces of ancient human activity.(在
他看来,发掘那些历经多个历史时期的遗址,是考古工作中最复杂却也最具魅力的部分,因为遗址的每一
层土层,都留存着古代人类活动独有的痕迹。)”可知,Dawulijan认为发掘跨多个历史时期的遗址极具魅力,
而原因正是这类遗址的每一层都留存着古代人类活动的独特痕迹。故选D。
4.推理判断题。根据文章第二段“His career path took clear shape in Professor Lin Meicun’s Silk Road
Archaeology class: a slide of Xinjiang’s Kangjia Shimenzi Petroglyphs (岩画) left him astonished by his lack of
knowledge about his hometown’s precious heritage. In that very moment, a deep connection to archaeology was

家乡珍贵的文化遗产竟知之甚少。就在那一刻,他与考古学结下了深厚的羁绊,也下定决心将研究重心放
在丝绸之路与新疆考古领域。)”可知,Dawulijan因家乡新疆的康家石门子岩画触动,惊觉对家乡珍贵遗产
的无知,从而决心深耕丝绸之路与新疆考古研究;而根据最后一段“For Dawulijan, Xinjiang is a unique
archaeological treasure, and his work is a sacred mission to tell Xinjiang’s rich and vivid stories to the world.(于
Dawulijan而言,新疆是一处独一无二的考古宝库,而他的工作,便是向世界讲述新疆丰富鲜活的故事,这
是一份属于他的神圣使命。)”可知,他视新疆为独一无二的考古宝库、将向世界讲述新疆的故事当作神圣
使命。由此可知,Dawulijan的职业选择与毕生追求,均源于对家乡根脉的热爱,这份热爱让他找到了属于
自己的、极具意义的职业使命。故选C。
Passage 9
(2026·高三·广东佛山市·二模)
In 1975, five-year-old Jeff, in a wheelchair, asked his parents if he could meet Fred Rogers of theNeighborhood rather than going to Disneyland. It was the family’s own version of “Make-A-Wish,” proposed on the
eve of Jeff’s major spinal (脊椎的) surgery. Jeff said Mr. Rogers told him that he was special and that he was just
fine the way he was, and it gave him confidence and made him feel good.
Jeff’s parents wrote a letter to the television star about the boy’s desire to meet him, and they got a handwritten
answer that led to a breakfast meeting at a hotel. Later they continued to correspond; Rogers wrote to say how glad
he was that Jeff’s surgery had gone well. Then in 1980, Rogers decided he wanted to have a child in a wheelchair on
his show for a theme week on all things mechanical. He remembered Jeff and insisted it had to be Jeff.
On the Neighborhood, Rogers asked Jeff straightforwardly about the mechanics of his wheelchair, and how
he wound up in it. Producer Margy Whitmer recalled Jeff’s appearance on the show: “It was one of the most impressive
moments... Here’s this child who has multiple disabilities, and Fred said, ‘Talk to me about that wheelchair. Talk to
me about what’s wrong with you.’ And this extraordinary kid talked about his medical condition (resulting from
spinal tumor) in a matter-of-fact way. Fred presented it to kids watching the show, as ‘this is just the way he is.’”
This was the philosophy of Fred Rogers’s complete acceptance: There was no topic he wouldn’t address on
air, no matter how difficult. “We don’t fudge things,” he said once when asked about the sources of the show’s
popularity. “People long to be in touch with honesty.”
Jeff and Rogers didn’t meet again until 1999, when Rogers was being honored with a place in the Television
Hall of Fame. When Jeff rolled onstage to surprise him, Rogers ran up to the stage and hugged him as if they were
the only two people in the auditorium. “On behalf of millions of children and grown-ups,” said Jeff, “It’s you I
like.”
There wasn’t a dry eye in the well-dressed house.
1. What inspired Jeff to meet Fred Rogers?
A.His eagerness to seek praise. B.His need for Rogers’s advice.
C.His worries about his surgery. D.His fondness for Rogers’s show.
2. What do Rogers’s words to Jeff on the show illustrate?
A.His desire to impress the audience. B.His effort to make people feel special.
C.His openness in discussing children’s disability. D.His concern about the child’s medical condition.
3. What does the underlined word “fudge” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Avoid. B.Challenge. C.Mess up. D.Comment on.
4. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.An Excellent Neighbor B.The Power of Acceptance
C.The Value of Friendship D.A Special Wheelchair Boy【答案】1.D 2.C 3.A 4.B

Passage 10
(2026·高三·湖南常德市·二模)
Heidy Martinez never dreamt of studying sharks. That changed during a study abroad trip in South Africa in
college. She went cage diving with classmates — viewing sharks underwater while inside a protective cage. Martinez
was mostly there for the excitement.
The boat ride was proving to be uncomfortable. Martinez’s wetsuit didn’t fit. Everyone was feeling seasick.
When she entered the ocean, a woman beside her said she felt ill. “All of a sudden, she brings up,” Martinez recalls.
“Then a wave comes, so all she pukes (呕吐) just lands on me.”
At that moment, a white shark approached the cage. To see the shark, Martinez immediately dived, puke and
all. But the sight was worth it. Movies usually show these sharks as bloody hunters. But this white shark looked
entirely different. “I was shocked at how beautiful the shark was,” she says. “That was a critical moment in my
career.”
Today, Martinez is a freelance shark researcher. When she decided to switch careers in her mid-20s, she felt
scared. Her family had left Colombia when she was 6 so she could have a better future. She worried her parents
would think everything she’d done was a waste. But her dad actually got teary-eyed when she told them. He explained
that he had wanted to study marine biology, too. “It felt like this full-circle moment,” she says. “My dad left everything
behind so I could do what I love.”
Martinez’s degrees are in anthropology and psychology, not marine biology. But these backgrounds have
shaped her as a scientist. Anthropology allows her to consider cultural differences. Psychology helps her understand
how people receive information. For example, clam (蛤蜊) divers in the Gulf of Mexico have lost their lives to shark
encounters. Their reaction is to hate sharks. Many scientists try to lecture the fishermen about how sharks don’t
regularly attack divers. But studying psychology taught Martinez that if you want people to listen to you, you have
to listen to them first.
1.What happened to Martinez during her study trip in South Africa ?
A.Someone threw up on her. B.She was attacked by a shark.

2.What can we infer from Martinez’s father’s reaction ?A.He regretted not leaving Colombia.
B.He was worried about her wasting time.
C.He was deeply touched by her decision.
D.He felt sorry for his own unrealized dream.
3.Why does the author mention clam divers in Paragraph 5?
A.To stress the importance of degrees.
B.To explain why fishermen fear sharks.
C.To prove that sharks regularly attack divers.
D.To show the effect of interdisciplinary knowledge.
4.What can be concluded from Martinez’s experience?
A.Listening is a scientific research method.
B.Efforts should be made to protect sharks.
C.Finding what interests us drives career path.
D.Success is closely related to family support.

Passage 11
(2026·高三·江西上饶市·二模)
Isaac Kehimkar specializes in the study of butterflies and the preservation of their habitats throughout India.
Chasing the 1,500 species in India was not an easy job. Though butterflies are delicate and harmless, their habitats
are not. Isaac jokes, “Being bitten by bloodthirsty insects, and chased by angry elephants are add-ons.” He has also
encountered political unrest along the way. The upside, though, is that Isaac got to see the real India. “One lifetime
is not enough. I have seen most of India while chasing butterflies,” he says.
Isaac’s three-decade study has resulted in two books: Book of Indian Butterflies and Butterflies of India,
which feature nearly 1,000 species and subspecies, complete with descriptions, identification, and photographs-many
contributed by enthusiasts nationwide. Isaac’s passion and dedication earned him the title “Butterfly Man of India.”
Like tigers and lions, butterflies are protected under India’s Wildlife Protection Act. For research, scientists
need official permission to catch butterflies; Isaac, however, observes and photographs them. Isaac identifies a
species’ hotspot, then camps out and waits patiently with a camera, hoping to get a good shot. “Not all butterflies sit
on flowers. The Nawab and Rajah families are lured by animal waste or bad flesh. So we can use this to draw them near
and photograph,” explains Isaac. “The Blue Oak Leaf butterfly’s fondness for over-ripe fruit also allows for close
study.”
Isaac wants to work with the government to set up wildlife sanctuaries for butterflies. He is also urging citizens
to build butterfly gardens to help restore butterfly populations in urban areas. “My role is to actively promote a love
for butterflies, because I believe that when we fall in love with butterflies, we fall in love with nature itself,” Isaac
says.1.What does Isaac Kehimkar think of his butterflies chasing?
A.Romantic. B.Meaningful. C.Lonely. D.Peaceful.
2.What can be learned about Isaac’s books on butterflies?
A.They highlight butterfly conservation.
B.All butterfly pictures are by Isaac himself.
C.Each entry contains hand-painted illustrations.
D.They cover about two-thirds of India’s butterflies.
3.What does the underlined word “lured” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.recorded B.raised C.attracted D.fertilized
4.What is special about Issac’s approach to studying butterflies?
A.Sampling sufficient subjects. B.Using an observation-based method.
C.Innovating with food on-hand. D.Following wildlife conservation laws.
【答案】1.B 2.D 3.C 4.B

Passage 12
(2026·高三·湖北黄冈市·二模)
A long-lost sculpture by American artist Harry Bertoia has been rediscovered and is back on display in
Michigan.
The dramatic 26-foot-tall piece, created in 1970, now hangs in the seven-story atrium of General Motors’ new
global headquarters, in Detroit, according to an announcement from the company.
The artwork, consisting of brass-and-bronze-coated steel wires, was originally commissioned for a Michigan
mall. After the mall’s renovation in 1980, it was moved to another location but never displayed, though the mall
opened again in 1983. For decades, it lay forgotten in a dusty basement until a shocking discovery in 2017 by an art
appraiser (评估人) and a city arts commissioner. “It was all bent up, and dirty, covered with grit and cobwebs,”
recalled Celia Bertoia, the artist’s daughter.
Its rescue found a perfect homecoming. General Motors, which had relocated its headquarters to a site with
historical ties to the sculpture’s original commissioner, purchased the damaged work for $1 million. The connection
runs deeper: GM had commissioned Bertoia’s first major public sculpture in 1953, and the artist, an Italian immigrant
who arrived in Detroit at 15, had the auto industry’s deep fascination with metal and light.
Following over a year of careful restoration, installing the massive piece was an engineering feat, requiring a
large opening in the building wall and crane lifts. Bertoia, who died in 1978, created art for many public spaces,
believing it should be lived with and seen. His daughter sees this vertical sculpture as echoing her father’s spiritual,
cosmic perspective. GM plans to offer public tours, finally allowing this once-forgotten masterpiece to be appreciated
by all, fulfilling the artist’s wish for his work to connect with people.
1.What does the underlined word “renovation” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A.Renewal. B.Rediscovery. C.Construction. D.Destruction.
2.What directly led to the rediscovery of the sculpture?
A.City’s planned asset inventory. B.Mall closure for redevelopment.
C.Public interest in company history. D.Expert recognition during inspection.
3.Why was GM considered the ideal owner for the rediscovered sculpture?
A.It offered the highest bid.
B.It could fund the costly restoration.
C.It held exclusive rights to the artist’s works.
D.It shared historical connections with the piece.4.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.The artwork is huge and delicate.
B.GM charges visitors for tours to see the sculpture.
C.The scuplture will finally be made available for the public.
D.The artist’s daughter will serve as a tour guide at the exhibit.
