A
The world is facing a serious problem: the fast increase of municipal solid waste (MSW城市固体垃圾). A 2024 United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) report highlights a growing global challenge: MSW, which amounted to 2.1 billion tonnes in 2020, is set to increase significantly in the coming decades. Figure 1 in the same report shows that all kinds of waste-recycling, landfill, waste-to-energy, and especially uncontrolled waste-will continue to grow. Uncontrolled waste, which includes trash that is not properly collected or treated but simply dumped (倾倒) or openly burned, already reached 0.81 billion tonnes in 2020 and could mount to 1.57 billion tonnes by 2050.
Poor waste management brings huge costs. In 2020, the world spent $252 billion on dealing with waste. But when the hidden costs-such as pollution and health problems-are included, the total rises to $361 billion. If nothing changes, both the environmental damage and economic burden will become much worse.
However, the report also offers hope. UNEP recommends moving away from the “take-make-dispose (处理)” model and shifting toward a circular way of using resources, which includes cutting waste, using items more than once, and strengthening recycling. The report also points out that cities should play a leading role by working together, recognizing the role of informal waste workers, encouraging people to deal with kitchen waste at home, and involving the public in planning better ways to handle trash. Through these efforts, cities can help the world move toward a cleaner and more sustainable future.
1. According to the report, how much MSW is the world expected to produce in 2050?
A. 3.79 billion tonnesB. 2.22 billion tonnesC. 2.1 billion tonnesD. 1.57 billion tonnes
2. What can we know about uncontrolled waste?
A. It is the smallest part of global waste.B. It includes waste that is recycled at home.

For many older adults, the simple joy of a bike ride feels out of reach. Cycling Without Age bridges that gap, pairing seniors with younger volunteers. These young people are called “pilots.” They ride alongside seniors, ensuring every journey is safe, joyful, and shared.
Take Hugh Lyon and David Lawrence for example. Despite the 20 years’ gap in age, they have been riding together for years. 56-year-old Lawrence pilots the trishaw (三轮车) while Lyon enjoys the ride. Every week, the two explore their town. Lyon would ask about its streets and history, while Lawrence was happy to share what he knew. “This program has brought me a meaningful connection with an older generation, which means a lot to me since my parents are no longer with me,” Lawrence says.
That same spirit inspires John Boettner, who leads a local Cycling Without Age chapter in Santa Barbara. He has one gentle rule for his passengers. “People always ask, ‘How much does a ride cost?’” he says. “I tell them, ‘Just smile and wave to everyone we pass.’” Boettner cherishes red lights, because they are little windows for connection, a chance for his passengers to exchange smiles and stories with strangers on the street. “Driving the trishaw is our best advertisement,” he adds. “When a 101-year-old woman holds your hand tight and says thank you, it’s a moment you’ll never forget.”
Ole Kassow, who founded Cycling Without Age, sees these moments as part of something greater. “What makes these rides so powerful is how riding softens the lines between generations and helps people form new friendships,” he says. “I believe that friendship, or the ability to open your heart and care for others at any age, brings energy and warmth to life, making it richer and better.”
4. What was Lawrence’s greatest gain from Cycling Without Age?
A. A clear goal.B. A brave heart.C. A curious mind.D. A treasured bond.
5. What can we infer from paragraph 3?
A. Riders are enriched by giving rides.B. The program needs to be advertised.
C. Passengers have to pay for the ridesD. Red lights teach people patience and care.
6. What does Ole Kassow emphasize in his words?
A. The pleasure of cycling.B. The value of the program.
C. The power of young people.D. The definition of a good life.
7. Which of the following best matches the idea in the passage?
A. A sweet friendship comes from trust.B. A heart that connects is always young.
C. Don’t go through life， grow through life.D. Happiness is a journey, not a destination.
【答案】4. D5. A6. B7. B

In today’s world, more and more young people use the internet to connect with others. They even keep in touch by sharing short videos on apps like TikTok and YouTube. However, it’s often difficult to tell if the content is good for them. Under this background, the Danish government announced to stop children under 15 from using certain social media platforms. This plan shows a key problem for modern parents: while social media is a big part of young people’s lives, its possible harmful impact is becoming more concerning.
The government made this decision based on distinct data and social trends. National surveys in Denmark show that most children under 13 are already active on social media. Officials say that young people are easily influenced by the questionable content on these platforms. Seeing one-sided opinions can lead to poor thinking about complicated issues, which may weaken their ability to think critically. Also, the need to be online all the time can ruin sleep quality and weaken the concentration needed for learning and healthy growth.
Nevertheless, putting this policy into practice is full of challenges. In a world where children can easily access screens, the biggest problem lies in how to make it work effectively. The proposal suggests a system with different rules for different ages: children aged 13 to 15 need parental agreement, while those under 10 are not allowed at all. Denmark also has to talk with big technology companies, since they often care more about their data and profit than users’ health, especially for younger users.
Denmark’s decision marks an important change. For other countries, like Australia, Denmark’s experiment will be watched closely. It raises a basic question: in the digital age, does creating a safer environment for children require us to rethink the boundaries of the online world itself?
8. Why did the Danish government announce the social media ban?
A. To address the harms of short-video on children.
B. To reduce the influence of technology advances.
C. To protect children from unproven information.
D. To limit the frequent digital interaction among children.
9. What might be the result of being active on social media early?
A. Efficient sleep patterns.B. Possible mental illness
C. Potential attention failure.D. Sharp and critical mindsets.
10. What can be inferred about the practice of the ban?
A. It achieved certain impact.B. It proposed various strategies.
C. It engaged cultural cooperation.D. It deserved efforts from companies.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Rethinking the Digital PlaygroundB. Denmark’s Challenge in Digital Age
C. The Global Fight Against Social MediaD. Social Media on Children’s Development
【答案】8. C9. C10. B11. A

Each year, over 1.2 billion new smartphones are produced worldwide. This not only consumes significant energy and natural resources but also results in large amounts of electronic waste, as users often replace functional devices every few years. To address this issue, researchers have developed a new approach-transforming old phones into small-scale data centers for practical applications.
“Innovation often begins not with something new, but with a new way of thinking about the old,” said Huber, an associate professor. The research team demonstrated that outdated smartphones can be transformed into tiny data centers capable of processing and storing data for real-world applications. They also found that building such a data center only costs around 8 euros per device, making it an economical solution.
In their experiment, the scientists carefully removed the batteries to prevent chemical leakage and connected four old phones using 3D-printed cases. The system was powered externally and tested in practical environments. One successful trial of the new approach involved underwater sea life monitoring, where the device automatically recorded and analyzed sea species. Tasks that once required divers can now be handled directly by the device underwater.
These reused devices show promise in other areas as well. For example, they could be applied at bus stops to monitor passenger flow patterns and help urban planners adjust public transportation schedules and routes. This approach not only reduces e-waste but also supports sustainable digital solutions for modern communities.
“This smart, green approach rethinks our throwaway tech culture. Sustainability is not just about preserving the future but also about reimagining the present, turning yesterday’s devices into tomorrow’s solutions,” added Ulrich, an Associate Professor of Software Engineering. With minimal investment and creative thinking, outdated technology can serve new purposes, contributing to a greener digital society while effectively addressing the growing problem of electronic waste.
12. Which of the following best describes the new approach in paragraph 2?
A. Time-saving.B. Cost-effectiveC. User-friendly.D. Labor-intensive.
13. What was a successful application of the new approach?
A. Assisting divers in recording sea animals.B. Producing 3D-printed cases for ocean use
C. Monitoring underwater life independently.D. Supplying power to underwater equipment.
14. What can we infer about the reused devices from paragraph 4?
A. They predict the city traffic patterns.B. They inform passengers of bus arrivals.
C. They help with smart city managementD. They assess the work of urban planners.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. The Global Smartphone Waste ProblemB. A Green Solution: Repurposing Old Phones
C. An Eco-Digital Guide: Electronic EngineeringD. The Sustainability of Smart City Development

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了以运河闻名的阿姆斯特丹为保护猫咪不溺水，采取设置木质楼梯等措施及相关后续计划。
【36题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：最近，这座城市开始采取切实措施保护其猫咪不溺水于这些水道中。take measures to do sth
固定搭配，意为“采取措施做某事”。故填measures。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句引导词。句意：冬天一直是生存最具挑战性的季节，因为冰冷的水让动物们几乎没有生存的机会。此处为定语从句，先行词是the season，从句中survival is most challenging缺少时间状语，所以用关系副词when引导定语从句。故填when。
【38题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：为了提高安全性，去年冬天，政府在几条运河岸边放置了小型木质楼梯。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语during last winter（去年冬天）可知，此处描述的是过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时，position的过去式为positioned。故填positioned。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：这些楼梯充当了意外滑入水中的动物的紧急出口。此处修饰动词slip，需用副词作状语，accidental的副词形式为accidentally，意为“意外地、偶然地”。故填accidentally。
【40题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意：更多的楼梯计划在今年晚些时候建造，但它们的位置必须仔细选择。此处为谓语动词，主语More staircases与谓语动词schedule之间为被动关系；结合时间状语later this year（今年晚些时候），应用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为复数，所以用are scheduled。故填are scheduled。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：在许多地区，高高的石墙使得动物一旦掉进去就几乎不可能逃脱。此处为固定句型make it + 形容词 + for sb/sth to do sth，it为形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的不定式短语，所以此处用动词不定式to escape。故填to escape。
42题详解】
考查介词。句意：为了解决这个问题，阿姆斯特丹正与一个名为动物救护车的动物保护组织密切合作，该组织正在绘制高风险区域的详细地图，以指导新楼梯的战略性放置。work closely with...为固定搭配，意为“与……密切合作”。故填with。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意：为了解决这个问题，阿姆斯特丹正与一个名为动物救护车的动物保护组织密切合作，该组织正在绘制高风险区域的详细地图，以指导新楼梯的战略性放置。此处指代前面提到的an animal protection group called Dierenambulance，为特指，所以用定冠词the，且位于句首，首字母大写。故填The。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：“被困在运河里的猫咪一直是人们关注的焦点，”一家猫咪信息中心的玛吉·鲁滕贝格解释说。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语，修饰名词Cats，Cats与trap之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词trapped。故填trapped。
【45题详解】
考查名词复数。句意：这些楼梯真的可以拯救生命。life作“生命”讲时为可数名词，结合句意，此处表示“拯救许多猫咪的生命”，应用复数形式lives。故填lives。

46. 假定你是李华，你校外教Jason计划广泛使用AI智能批改系统来评阅学生的英语作文，以提升批改效率。你认为这样批改存在问题。请你给他写一封邮件，内容包括：
1. 说明问题：
2. 提出建议。
注意：
1. 写作词数应为80左右；
2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Dear Jason,
I’m Li Hua.
Best regards,
Li Hua
【答案】Dear Jason,
I’m Li Hua. I’m writing to share my thoughts on your plan to use AI intelligent correction systems to grade our English compositions.
Though the system can improve correction efficiency, it has some problems. It can only find grammar or spelling mistakes but ignore our logical flaws and emotional expression. Besides, it can’t offer targeted advice for our individual weaknesses.
I suggest you combine AI with manual correction. Let AI deal with simple mistakes and you focus on guiding us to improve logic and writing skills. This way, we can make greater progress.
Best regards,
Li Hua
第二节（满分25分）
47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Elena was the top member of the school’s Astronomy (天文) Club. She believed everything in space could be explained with numbers and facts. Her notebooks were full of perfect star drawings. Her world of perfect rules, however, was put to the test when the club advisor, Mr. Davis, asked her to work with Leo, who was also in the Astronomy Club but drew messy pictures and lived by the idea that “how you feel is more important than being exact.”
Their task was to make a poster for the school’s Stargazing (观星) Night. “I want this poster to be both accurate and imaginative,” said the teacher. “You know, that’s what astronomy is all about. It is science, but at the same time, it’s a romantic story written in the stars.” Both Elena and Leo were confused. After all, one valued strict accuracy above all, while the other chased pure creative expression.
Elena watched quietly as Leo cut a piece from her best star drawing and stuck it on paper covered in blue paint.
“You’re ruining it,” Elena said. “The stars should stay in their proper positions.”
“No, they need to feel alive,” Leo replied, dipping his brush in white paint to add glowing stars magically.
Elena hesitated, then moved one of Leo’s colorful planets slightly to adjust it better.
“Hey, don’t change that!” Leo said quickly.
“I just want it to make sense,” Elena said, biting her lip.
They couldn’t agree, so they worked separately. Elena created a poster with perfect details, but it felt cold and lifeless. Leo’s colorful design was full of energy, yet it didn’t clearly show the stars’ positions. Secretly looking at each other’s work, they both wondered if work together could make the poster better. The day before the deadline, they met in the empty classroom, their unfinished works side by side. Their eyes met. They felt no anger, only a quiet understanding that something was still missing.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“We can’t make it if we work separately,” Elena spoke up first.
The next morning, they showed the poster to Mr. Davis and club members.
【答案】“We can’t make it if we work separately,” Elena spoke up first. Leo nodded in agreement, his eyes softening. “You’re right. My poster is full of fun but lacks accuracy, and yours is perfect but too cold,” he admitted. Elena took a deep breath and pushed her notebook forward: “Let’s combine our strengths. I’ll draw the stars in their correct positions, and you can add your colorful ideas to make them lively.” Leo’s face lit up. They got to work together — Elena sketched carefully, ensuring every star was in place, while Leo added glowing brush strokes and bright planets around them. They laughed as they adjusted details, finally creating a poster that was both precise and imaginative.
The next morning, they showed the poster to Mr. Davis and club members. Everyone fell silent at the first sight. The poster had perfect star positions drawn by Elena, decorated with Leo’s colorful, glowing designs that made the stars seem to twinkle. Mr. Davis smiled proudly: “This is exactly what I wanted — science and romance together.” The club members cheered, praising how well their styles matched. Elena looked at Leo and realized that astronomy wasn’t just about numbers and facts; it was also about the joy of sharing and creating. From then on, they became the best partner in the Astronomy Club, making every activity more wonderful together.
