【答案】4. C 5. C 6. B 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲到作者在希腊了解经历了希腊野火的人们的生活以及他们对于气候问题的看
法,然而当地人们认为政府更应该为这件事负责,而忽视了隐形的全球气候变暖这一原因。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。第三段第一句提到“I was expecting to hear a lot about loss; I was not expecting to learn so much about the
attribution (归因) of blame.”(起初,我以为会听到许多关于损失的事情;然而出乎我的意料之外的是对于责任归属
的抱怨却如此之多。)由此判断,作者起初只想听到关于人们对于损失的陈述,但是没有想到听到人们对于责任归
属的抱怨。故选 C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。第三段第二句提到“I came to understand how desperately people needed to blame a tangible entity (实体)
{#{QQABJYqAgggAQgAAARgCAQFYCgIQkAAACAoOgAAEIAIBQBFABAA=}#}
–a person, a group of people, the government.”(我逐渐明白人们迫切需要将责任归咎于有形实体——个人、群体或

政府来为这一场大火负责,并且进行调查。故选 C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段第二句提到“In her book “Engaging With Climate Change” Sally Weintrobe says that “many
people who accept global warming continue to regard it as a problem of the future”.”(Sally Weintrobe在她的书《参与气
候变化》中说:“许多接受全球变暖的人仍然认为这是一个未来的问题。”)在 Sally的书里提到,人们虽然知道有
全球变暖这一问题的存在,但他们仍然觉得这个问题是未来才会发生的事情,而不是现在很严重的情况,所以人们

to hear people’s stories, to understand what it meant to be displaced by environmental disaster.”(2021年夏天,我飞往希
腊,更多地了解那里的野火。我想听听人们的故事,了解因环境灾难而流离失所意味着什么。)但是在作者访问的
过程中,当地人们并没有考虑到全球气候变暖也是导致这一大火的隐形原因,反而想要政府或者机构对这件事情负
责。最后一段提到“To my astonishment, this seemed to apply even to people who had themselves been affected directly
by wildfires.”(令我惊讶的是,这似乎甚至适用于那些自己直接受到野火影响的人。)作者发现经历过火灾的人,
也几乎忽视了全球气候变暖在这场大火中造成的后果。因此作者想要引起人们对于气候危机的意识。故选 D。
C篇
【答案】8. D 9. D 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。主要论述了以同情为中心的训练方法的起源及在体育界的应用和其优势。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Compassion has not been a traditional characteristic of sport. With its UK roots in
19th-century British public schools and universities, modern sport developed as way of creating strong military leaders,
training them to develop adaptability defined in those times by iron will and...”(同情心并不是体育运动的传统特征。现
代体育起源于 19世纪的英国公立学校和大学,作为培养强大军事领袖的一种方式而发展起来,训练他们发展适应
能力,在那个时代,这种适应能力是由钢铁般的意志和……所定义的。)及最后一句“The “tough guy” narrative was
strengthened by 20th-century media stereotypes and Hollywood’s heroes and became rooted into sport and society.”(“硬
汉”的叙事被 20世纪媒体的刻板印象和好莱坞的英雄所强化,并扎根于体育和社会。)可知,钢铁般的意志和“biting
the bullet”是早期军事领袖适应性强的一个特征,是一种硬汉形象的精神特征,故可以推测“biting the bullet”指坚
韧不拔的精神,与前文“iron will”含义一致。故选 D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“We were expected to suffer after mistakes or losses to show that we truly cared, and
{#{QQABJYqAgggAQgAAARgCAQFYCgIQkAAACAoOgAAEIAIBQBFABAA=}#}
everyone believed coaches needed to be severe and unforgiving to get results. These approaches still exist. But an
alternative approach with compassion at its center addresses aims of performance and wellbeing for those with greater
ambitions.”(我们被期望在犯错或输球后承受痛苦,以表明我们真的在乎,每个人都认为教练需要严厉和无情才能
取得成绩。这些方法仍然存在。但另一种以同情为中心的方法,使那些有更大抱负的人实现了优秀的表现和幸福的
目标。)可知,作者提到赛艇队的例子说明了当时以严厉和批评为主的训练方法,从而引出同情为中心的方法,说
明这种方法更有优势,能实现更大的抱负。故选 D项。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Research across branches of psychology — behavioral, sports, positive — shows how
compassion creates the strongest foundation for adaptability and sustained performance under pressure whether in sport, the
military, healthcare or business. Rather than activating our threat system which began to help us survive way back,
compassion helps us to feel safe and protected, leaving us free to learn, connect with others and start exploring what we’re
capable of.”(跨心理学分支——行为、体育、积极心理学——研究表明,无论是在体育、军事、医疗还是商业领
域,同情心都为适应压力和持续表现创造最坚实的基础。它不是激活帮助我们生存下去的威胁系统,相反,同情帮
助我们感到安全和保护,让我们自由地学习,与他人联系,并开始探索我们的能力。)可知,本段主要论述了同情
心对我们的重要作用,即应用同情心的重要性。故选 B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“Compassion has been shown to decrease fear of failure and increase the likelihood of trying
again when failure does happen. But how many talented athletes experience that depth of support in moments of crisis and
failure ”(同情心已经被证明可以减少对失败的恐惧,并在失败发生时增加再次尝试的可能性。但有多少天才运动
员能在危机和失败的时刻得到如此深度的支持呢 )可知,同情心对运动员有好处,根据“but”转折可知,作者认
为并没有多少杰出的运动员在面对失败和危机时能获得这样的支持。故选 B项。

金时代”是否真的到来还有待观察。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Whenever electrical power runs through a transmission (传送) line, some is lost as waste
heat, a common tax forced by the laws of nature. (每当电力通过传输线时,都会产生一些浪费热量,这是自然法则强制
执行的普遍损失。)”可知,输电过程中的损耗是不可避免的。故选 C。

细节理解题。根据第二段中“The huge potential of superconductors is that they carry electricity over large distances with
{#{QQABJYqAgggAQgAAARgCAQFYCgIQkAAACAoOgAAEIAIBQBFABAA=}#}
perfect efficiency, having the greatest impact on energy generation, transmission and distribution. (超导体的巨大潜力在于,
它们能以完美的效率远距离传输电力,对能源的产生、传输和分配产生最大的影响。)”以及本段中“If we ever figure
out how to produce them cheaply and make them work at room temperature rather than only at hundreds of degrees below
zero, it would revolutionize our economy and help save the environment.( 如果我们能弄清楚如何廉价地生产它们,并使
它们在室温下工作,而不是仅仅在零下几百度的环境下工作,这将彻底改变我们的经济,并有助于拯救环境。)”可

传输和分配方面产生重大影响;以及根据倒数第二段中“The pull of a room-temperature superconductor grows as our
economic and environmental picture darkens. It’s the kind of miracle material that could slow climate change while driving
global economy, realized new technologies seen in science fiction.(随着经济和环境形势的恶化,室温超导体的吸引力越
来越大。这是一种神奇的材料,可以减缓气候变化,同时推动全球经济,实现科幻小说中的新技术。)”以及最后一
段中“Although public interest will no doubt fade for now, an obvious promise remains: a superconducting golden age
might be just over the horizon, and the role of science is clear-to find a way to get us there.(虽然公众的兴趣无疑会暂时消
退,但一个明显的承诺仍然存在:超导的黄金时代可能即将到来,科学的作用也很清楚——找到一种方法让我们到

【答案】Dear Sam,
I do agree that AI can be a helpful companion when utilized into our writing assignment, as you suggested before. But
I don’t think we become totally dependent on it to finish our draft. So I have to reject your proposal.
While working on the first draft, we should explore our own experiences to express our own thoughts and opinions.
Convenient and efficient as AI is, it lacks a certain aura and reflection, which is crucial for the development of
critical-thinking. Therefore, from my perspective, it can be more prudent if we finish the work originally with our creativity
and imagination. Besides, why not meet after school this Friday and work out an outline together and then split up for our
own parts By the way, turn to AI to polish our language is a workable idea!
Hope you can consider my suggestions and let’s write our own stories. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

expression before finally breaking into a nod. “Sure,” he said, “Playing in college and coaching that youth team were some
of the best times of my life. I shouldn’t deprive you of the right to pursue your passion. ” The moment I heard dad’s words, I
was so excited that I couldn’t help but spring to my feet. The tournament was super fun. We got to the finals, and I even
made the last shot that won us the game. The crowd got all excited and started clapping and cheering.
As I scanned the audience, I spotted my dad. He was clapping, wearing a proud smile on his face. It was the same
smile I had seen in old photos of him playing basketball. After the game, he enveloped me in a warm, tight embrace. “You
did well, both on the court and in balancing your responsibilities. I’m proud of you.” As we strolled back home, it dawned
on me that basketball had done more than just win me a game. It had bridged a generational gap, promoting mutual
understanding between dad and me.
