Peter Kline is the founder of Marathons with Meaning,a program dedicated to making running more accessible for people with disabilities.
Kline didn't begin running until later in life.“I was overweight,52,and I'd never done it,” he says.He tried a 10K and loved it so much that he was hooked.But it wasn't without a lot of training and a lot of pain:“I tried a marathon,and I did horrible.It was the most miserable, painful experience I ever had.It took me three years to qualify for Boston Marathon."
Eight years later,the idea for Marathons with Meaning was sparked when Kline met a young woman whose spinal column(脊柱)was crushed after an accident.He saw how hard it was for her to manage the world with this disability.At that time,Kline was getting tired of being a stand-alone athlete.“Running is very much an individualistic sport,"he says.“So,I thought,'Why don't I try to include somebody else and take them along "He contacted a children's hospital and the Make-a-Wish Foundation,and soon he was including rider-athletes in his marathons.And the rest is history.
Kline has now been running with rider-athletes for 12 years in marathons all over the world.“The kids love it,and it changes their lives.It changes their parents'lives,and it changes the other runners.Everybody is empowered by it,"he says.
Some rider-athletes are very sick,some are nonverbal,and some are physically disabled but very sharp mentally.For example,one young woman rider-athlete can't use her arms or legs but she has a Ph.D.in marine biology and speaks three languages."I never judge the disability or the person's ability,"Kline says."They're amazing,and they inspire us.”
What advice would Kline give others "Reach out.Don't look the other way when you see someone not as well off.If you don't know how to love unconditionally,then you'll never understand love."
24. What is the main focus of Marathons with Meaning
A.Training runners for marathons. B.Organizing global marathon events.
C.Boosting individual athletic success.D.Making running available to the disabled. 25.What inspired Peter Kline tostart Marathons with Meaning
A.His own love for running. B.The encounter with a young disabled woman.
C.His desire to get connected. D.The advice from the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
26.How does Marathons with Meaning influence the rider-athletes
A.It enhances theirinner power. B.It fuels their competitive spirit.
C.It teaches them to value abilities, D.It makes them more sharp-minded. 27.What is the key message of Kline's advice
A.Treat everyone equally. B.Aim higher to inspire others.
C.Connect and assist those in need. D.Understand love before offering help.

Imagine a herd of 100 life-sized elephant sculptures,each crafted by native Indian craftsmen,traveling around the world.This is The Great Elephant Migration-a campaign that uses a unique combination of art,conservation,and cultural hertage to raise awareness about wildlife protection and the importanceof living in harmony with nature.
By transforming public spaces with these striking sculptures,The Great Elephant Migration aims to inspire a global movement to protect endangered species and promote sustainable coexistence between humans and wildlifc.
Each elephant in the migration is a perfect replica(复制品)crafted by The Coexistence Collective,a community of 200 native Indian craftsmen from the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. Over the past five years,this collective has beautifully brought to life every elephant they live alongside,capturing each one in sculptural detail.
The sculptures are made from Lantana camara,an invasive plant species causing significant ecological damage in India.By using this material,the project not only transforms a problem into art but also helps in the large-scale removal of Lantana from protected areas, freeing up more space for wildlife and contributing to forest restoration.
The migration began its march in the US on July 4,2024,and is set to cover several locations across North America and conclude in Los Angeles,California,in September 2025. At each stop,the herd transforms public spaces,inviting local communities and visttors to engage with the sculptures and the stories they represent.The migration serves as a poignant metaphor for the real-life migrations of animals,which are increasingly threatened by human activities and climate change.
The Great Elephant Migration is more than a visual sight;it's a call to action.Funds raised through the sale of the elephant sculptures will support conservation projects around the world, particularly those promoting coexistence with wildlife.
28.What's the aim of The Great Elephant Migration
A.To introduce Indian craftsmanship globally.
B.To highlight the threats faced by Asian elephants.
C.To promote a global wildlife conservation initiative.
D.To advocate art as a universal language of wildlife protection. 29.What does the underlined "a problem"in paragraph 4 refer to
A.The decline of the population of elephants.
B.The damage caused by invasive plant species. C.The limited space available for animal habitats.
D.The lack of awareness about wildlife conservation.
30.Howdo local communities get involved in the campaign during the tour
A.By donating to fund wildlife protection.
B.By creating elephant sculptures in person.
C.By learning about real-life animal migrations.
D.By exploring conservation stories behind sculptures
高三英语试题第5页(共10页)
31.What might be the best title for the text A.Elephants Marching Across the U.S.
B.Lantana Elephants:A Visual Treat
C.Making an Impact through Conservation
D.AMoving Celebration of Coexistence and Conservation
D
In October 2020,the United Nations Global Biodiversity Outlook announced that no government had met a single target to stop biodiversity loss in the last decade.Examples include rising deforestation and declining bee populations.To succeed in conserving biodiversity,we must first expand our understanding of biodiversity.
Biodiversity conversations tend to focus on certain plants and animals while ignoring others.People often regard trees and bees as the foundation of nature.For conservation campaigns,it pavs —literally -to be a large mammal that people can easily identify with or a species that seems directly useful to humans.We also try to protect species with obvious commercial interest,such as tuna and the honeybee.
Viewing biodiversity too narrowly does more harm than good.Many species are too small, too few,too ugly,or still undiscovered for us to notice them.Let's not make these the reasons why they are overlooked.
Pollinators(传粉者)are an essential part of biodiversity:Up to 90%of plants rely on animals for pollination,with bees often springing to mind.Yet,pollinators are much more than bees.There are about 20,000 species of bees out of 350,000 known pollinators.In Europe, honeybees are important for crops production.However,in warmer climates,plants like the fig tree rely on specific wasps and moths(飞蛾)for pollination.If we consider the most important pollinator in terms of pollinator diversity,moths and butterflies,with more than 140,000 species,win the title.But we shouldn't be asking which are the most important,or the most numerous.No single pollinator can get the job done.We need a variety of pollinators to support our ecosystems.
Taking a narrow view of biodiversity hides nature's true wonder.Instead,we should appreciate species not through a human-centered lens,but rather as equally cntical parts of incredible,complex and life-giving systems.All species deserve recognition.It is only then that we will be able to safeguard nature.
32.Which can best explain the underlined "pays"in paragraph 2
A.Brings advantage. B.Benefits nature. C.Makes profits. D.Faces risks.
33.Why are moths and butterflies mentioned
A.To stress their role in pollination.
B.To highlight their beauty and diversity.
C.To show their superior importance over bees.
D.To prove biodiversity goes beyond mere quantity
高三英语试题第6页(共10页)
34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Biodiversity serves as the foundation of nature. B.All species play an essential role in ecosystems.
C.A human-centered view leads to biodiversity loss.
D.Identifying all species is the key toprotecting nature. 35.What is main idea of the text
A.Endangered species call for conservation efforts.
B.Abroader view of biodiversity conservation is needed.
C.Human activities are the primary causes of biodiversity loss.
D.Governments struggle to meet biodiversity conservation targets.

Your brain is always "on."It works hard 24/7,even while you are asleep.This means your brain requires a constant supply of fuel. 36 And what's in that fuel makes all the difference.How do the foods you eat affect your mental health
Serotonin(血清素)is a chemical in your body that helps regulate sleep and appetite, manage moods and reduce pain.About 95%of your serotonin is produced in your gut(消化道), and your gut is lined with a hundred million nerve cells. 37
What's more,the function of these nerve cells and the production of neurotransmitters are greatly influenced by the billions of"good"bacteria(细菌)in your gut. 38 They ensure a strong barrier against harmful substance and "bad"bacteria;they improve how well you absorb nutrients from your food;and they activate neural pathways that travel directly between the gut and the brain.
Studies have compared "traditional"diets,like the traditional Japanese diet,to a typical “Western”diet and have shown that the risk of depression is 25%to 35%lower in those who eat a traditional diet. 39 Traditional diets tend to be high in vegetables,fruits, unprocessed grains,and fish and seafood,and to contain only modest amounts of lean meats and dairy.Furthermore,these diets lack processed foods and sugars,which are key components of the “Western”diet.In addition,many of these unprocessed foods are fermented(发酵), making them natural good bacteria.
So,what does this mean to you
40 Try keeping a "clean"diet for two to three weeks,which means cutting out all processed foods and sugars,and see how you feel.Then slowly introduce foods backinto your diet,one by one,and see how you feel.When some people"go clean,"they can't believe how much better they feel,both physically and emotionally.
A.Scientists account for this difference.
B.That "fuel"comes from the foods you eat.
C.These bacteria play an essential role in your health.
高三英语试题第7页(共10页)
D.Start paying attention to how eating different foods makes you feel.
E.In contrast,diets high in refined sugars have been found harmful to brain health.
F.So yourdigestive system not only aids digestion but also influences your emotions. G.Like anexpensive car,your brain functions best when it gets only high-quality fuel.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
In 1960,scientists developed Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)to make sure the world's atomic clocks matched the Earth's rotation(旋转).By the early 1970s,however,they realized the Earth's rotation was slightly 56 (slow)than atomic time by about 2.5 milliseconds daily.To address the shift,they added a leap second(闰秒)to UTC in 1972.Since then,27 seconds have been added, 57 the most recent addition in 2016.
However,the Earth's rotation has 58 (unexpected)increased in speed since 2020.As a result,there are plans for a "negative leap second,"a second 59 (remove)from UTC,in 2026 to deal with this,a procedure never carried out previously.
Recent research indicates that while the Earth's rotation has been speeding up,climate change is slowing it down.The increased melting of polar ice caps due to global warming has redistributed mass across the world's oceans, 60 potentially slows its rotation. Consequently,the adjustment to the Earth's rotational speed might not 61 (need)as soon as planned.Some scientists suggest that 62 _negative leap second scheduled for 2026 should be postponed until 2029.
Nevertheless,there is still concern 63 some timekeeping systems are unprepared for the removal of time from the world's official clock.After all,only time additions have been carried out since the 1970s.In the years ahead,we must find solutions 64 (allow)our
technology to adapt to the removal of a second, 65 (ensure)that it keeps pace with the ever-changing rhythms of our planet.

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。
The minute we got into the taxi,I had a bad feeling.The driver asked me to fasten the kid's safety belt after I already had.His half-violent attitude made me uncomfortable.
Lev was almost 4 then.Unlike me,he cared less about the driver and focused mainly on the scenery along the way.He sang quietly to himself with his short legs waving in the air.At one point,his right sandal(凉鞋)hit the taxi's plastic ashtray,knocking it over onto the floor.It was empty;nothing spilled.I had already bent to pick it up when the driver stopped the car suddenly,turned around to us and,with his face really close to my son's face,began screaming. “You stupid kid.You broke my car!”
"Hey,are you crazy or something ”I shouted at the driver.“Yelling(大喊)at a 3-year-old because of a piece of plastic Turn around and start driving,or I swear,next week you will not be drivingany public vehicle,you hearme "When I saw that he was about to say something,I added,"Shut yourmouth now and drive!"
The driver gave me a hateful look.I could sense he was weighing the choice between hitting me in the face and losing hisjob.After a long moment's silence,he took a deep breath, turned around,and drove on.
On the taxi's radio,somebody was singing"Don't Worry,Be Happy,"but I felt very far from happy.I looked at Lev and tried to find another ray of light in that unpleasant ride,but I couldn't.I smiled at Lev and held his hand.He looked at me hard,but didn't smile back. "Daddy,"he asked,"what did the man say "
“The man said,"I answered quickly,as if it were nothing,"that when you're riding in a car, you have to watch how you move your legs so you don't break anything."Lev nodded,looked out the window and a second later asked,"And what did you say to the man "
“Me ”I said to Lev,trying to gain a little time."I told the man that he was right,but that he should say quietly and politely,and not yell."
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。

Peter Kline is the founder of Marathons with Meaning,a program dedicated to making running more accessible for people with disabilities.
Kline didn't begin running until later in life.“I was overweight,52,and I'd never done it,” he says.He tried a 10K and loved it so much that he was hooked.But it wasn't without a lot of training and a lot of pain:“I tried a marathon,and I did horrible.It was the most miserable, painful experience I ever had.It took me three years to qualify for Boston Marathon."
Eight years later,the idea for Marathons with Meaning was sparked when Kline met a young woman whose spinal column(脊柱)was crushed after an accident.He saw how hard it was for her to manage the world with this disability.At that time,Kline was getting tired of being a stand-alone athlete.“Running is very much an individualistic sport,"he says.“So,I thought,'Why don't I try to include somebody else and take them along "He contacted a children's hospital and the Make-a-Wish Foundation,and soon he was including rider-athletes in his marathons.And the rest is history.
Kline has now been running with rider-athletes for 12 years in marathons all over the world.“The kids love it,and it changes their lives.It changes their parents'lives,and it changes the other runners.Everybody is empowered by it,"he says.
Some rider-athletes are very sick,some are nonverbal,and some are physically disabled but very sharp mentally.For example,one young woman rider-athlete can't use her arms or legs but she has a Ph.D.in marine biology and speaks three languages."I never judge the disability or the person's ability,"Kline says."They're amazing,and they inspire us.”
What advice would Kline give others "Reach out.Don't look the other way when you see someone not as well off.If you don't know how to love unconditionally,then you'll never understand love."
24. What is the main focus of Marathons with Meaning
A.Training runners for marathons. B.Organizing global marathon events.
C.Boosting individual athletic success.D.Making running available to the disabled. 25.What inspired Peter Kline tostart Marathons with Meaning
A.His own love for running. B.The encounter with a young disabled woman.
C.His desire to get connected. D.The advice from the Make-a-Wish Foundation.
26.How does Marathons with Meaning influence the rider-athletes
A.It enhances theirinner power. B.It fuels their competitive spirit.
C.It teaches them to value abilities, D.It makes them more sharp-minded. 27.What is the key message of Kline's advice
A.Treat everyone equally. B.Aim higher to inspire others.
C.Connect and assist those in need. D.Understand love before offering help.

Imagine a herd of 100 life-sized elephant sculptures,each crafted by native Indian craftsmen,traveling around the world.This is The Great Elephant Migration-a campaign that uses a unique combination of art,conservation,and cultural hertage to raise awareness about wildlife protection and the importanceof living in harmony with nature.
By transforming public spaces with these striking sculptures,The Great Elephant Migration aims to inspire a global movement to protect endangered species and promote sustainable coexistence between humans and wildlifc.
Each elephant in the migration is a perfect replica(复制品)crafted by The Coexistence Collective,a community of 200 native Indian craftsmen from the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve. Over the past five years,this collective has beautifully brought to life every elephant they live alongside,capturing each one in sculptural detail.
The sculptures are made from Lantana camara,an invasive plant species causing significant ecological damage in India.By using this material,the project not only transforms a problem into art but also helps in the large-scale removal of Lantana from protected areas, freeing up more space for wildlife and contributing to forest restoration.
The migration began its march in the US on July 4,2024,and is set to cover several locations across North America and conclude in Los Angeles,California,in September 2025. At each stop,the herd transforms public spaces,inviting local communities and visttors to engage with the sculptures and the stories they represent.The migration serves as a poignant metaphor for the real-life migrations of animals,which are increasingly threatened by human activities and climate change.
The Great Elephant Migration is more than a visual sight;it's a call to action.Funds raised through the sale of the elephant sculptures will support conservation projects around the world, particularly those promoting coexistence with wildlife.
28.What's the aim of The Great Elephant Migration
A.To introduce Indian craftsmanship globally.
B.To highlight the threats faced by Asian elephants.
C.To promote a global wildlife conservation initiative.
D.To advocate art as a universal language of wildlife protection. 29.What does the underlined "a problem"in paragraph 4 refer to
A.The decline of the population of elephants.
B.The damage caused by invasive plant species. C.The limited space available for animal habitats.
D.The lack of awareness about wildlife conservation.
30.Howdo local communities get involved in the campaign during the tour
A.By donating to fund wildlife protection.
B.By creating elephant sculptures in person.
C.By learning about real-life animal migrations.
D.By exploring conservation stories behind sculptures

In October 2020,the United Nations Global Biodiversity Outlook announced that no government had met a single target to stop biodiversity loss in the last decade.Examples include rising deforestation and declining bee populations.To succeed in conserving biodiversity,we must first expand our understanding of biodiversity.
Biodiversity conversations tend to focus on certain plants and animals while ignoring others.People often regard trees and bees as the foundation of nature.For conservation campaigns,it pavs —literally -to be a large mammal that people can easily identify with or a species that seems directly useful to humans.We also try to protect species with obvious commercial interest,such as tuna and the honeybee.
Viewing biodiversity too narrowly does more harm than good.Many species are too small, too few,too ugly,or still undiscovered for us to notice them.Let's not make these the reasons why they are overlooked.
Pollinators(传粉者)are an essential part of biodiversity:Up to 90%of plants rely on animals for pollination,with bees often springing to mind.Yet,pollinators are much more than bees.There are about 20,000 species of bees out of 350,000 known pollinators.In Europe, honeybees are important for crops production.However,in warmer climates,plants like the fig tree rely on specific wasps and moths(飞蛾)for pollination.If we consider the most important pollinator in terms of pollinator diversity,moths and butterflies,with more than 140,000 species,win the title.But we shouldn't be asking which are the most important,or the most numerous.No single pollinator can get the job done.We need a variety of pollinators to support our ecosystems.
Taking a narrow view of biodiversity hides nature's true wonder.Instead,we should appreciate species not through a human-centered lens,but rather as equally cntical parts of incredible,complex and life-giving systems.All species deserve recognition.It is only then that we will be able to safeguard nature.
32.Which can best explain the underlined "pays"in paragraph 2
A.Brings advantage. B.Benefits nature. C.Makes profits. D.Faces risks.
33.Why are moths and butterflies mentioned
A.To stress their role in pollination.
B.To highlight their beauty and diversity.
C.To show their superior importance over bees.
D.To prove biodiversity goes beyond mere quantity

34.What can be inferred from the last paragraph
A.Biodiversity serves as the foundation of nature. B.All species play an essential role in ecosystems.
C.A human-centered view leads to biodiversity loss.
D.Identifying all species is the key toprotecting nature. 35.What is main idea of the text
A.Endangered species call for conservation efforts.
B.Abroader view of biodiversity conservation is needed.
C.Human activities are the primary causes of biodiversity loss.
D.Governments struggle to meet biodiversity conservation targets.

Your brain is always "on."It works hard 24/7,even while you are asleep.This means your brain requires a constant supply of fuel. 36 And what's in that fuel makes all the difference.How do the foods you eat affect your mental health
Serotonin(血清素)is a chemical in your body that helps regulate sleep and appetite, manage moods and reduce pain.About 95%of your serotonin is produced in your gut(消化道), and your gut is lined with a hundred million nerve cells. 37
What's more,the function of these nerve cells and the production of neurotransmitters are greatly influenced by the billions of"good"bacteria(细菌)in your gut. 38 They ensure a strong barrier against harmful substance and "bad"bacteria;they improve how well you absorb nutrients from your food;and they activate neural pathways that travel directly between the gut and the brain.
Studies have compared "traditional"diets,like the traditional Japanese diet,to a typical “Western”diet and have shown that the risk of depression is 25%to 35%lower in those who eat a traditional diet. 39 Traditional diets tend to be high in vegetables,fruits, unprocessed grains,and fish and seafood,and to contain only modest amounts of lean meats and dairy.Furthermore,these diets lack processed foods and sugars,which are key components of the “Western”diet.In addition,many of these unprocessed foods are fermented(发酵), making them natural good bacteria.
So,what does this mean to you
40 Try keeping a "clean"diet for two to three weeks,which means cutting out all processed foods and sugars,and see how you feel.Then slowly introduce foods backinto your diet,one by one,and see how you feel.When some people"go clean,"they can't believe how much better they feel,both physically and emotionally.
A.Scientists account for this difference.
B.That "fuel"comes from the foods you eat.
C.These bacteria play an essential role in your health.

D.Start paying attention to how eating different foods makes you feel.
E.In contrast,diets high in refined sugars have been found harmful to brain health.
F.So yourdigestive system not only aids digestion but also influences your emotions. G.Like anexpensive car,your brain functions best when it gets only high-quality fuel.

阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
In 1960,scientists developed Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)to make sure the world's atomic clocks matched the Earth's rotation(旋转).By the early 1970s,however,they realized the Earth's rotation was slightly 56 (slow)than atomic time by about 2.5 milliseconds daily.To address the shift,they added a leap second(闰秒)to UTC in 1972.Since then,27 seconds have been added, 57 the most recent addition in 2016.
However,the Earth's rotation has 58 (unexpected)increased in speed since 2020.As a result,there are plans for a "negative leap second,"a second 59 (remove)from UTC,in 2026 to deal with this,a procedure never carried out previously.
Recent research indicates that while the Earth's rotation has been speeding up,climate change is slowing it down.The increased melting of polar ice caps due to global warming has redistributed mass across the world's oceans, 60 potentially slows its rotation. Consequently,the adjustment to the Earth's rotational speed might not 61 (need)as soon as planned.Some scientists suggest that 62 _negative leap second scheduled for 2026 should be postponed until 2029.
Nevertheless,there is still concern 63 some timekeeping systems are unprepared for the removal of time from the world's official clock.After all,only time additions have been carried out since the 1970s.In the years ahead,we must find solutions 64 (allow)our
technology to adapt to the removal of a second, 65 (ensure)that it keeps pace with the ever-changing rhythms of our planet.

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。
The minute we got into the taxi,I had a bad feeling.The driver asked me to fasten the kid's safety belt after I already had.His half-violent attitude made me uncomfortable.
Lev was almost 4 then.Unlike me,he cared less about the driver and focused mainly on the scenery along the way.He sang quietly to himself with his short legs waving in the air.At one point,his right sandal(凉鞋)hit the taxi's plastic ashtray,knocking it over onto the floor.It was empty;nothing spilled.I had already bent to pick it up when the driver stopped the car suddenly,turned around to us and,with his face really close to my son's face,began screaming. “You stupid kid.You broke my car!”
"Hey,are you crazy or something ”I shouted at the driver.“Yelling(大喊)at a 3-year-old because of a piece of plastic Turn around and start driving,or I swear,next week you will not be drivingany public vehicle,you hearme "When I saw that he was about to say something,I added,"Shut yourmouth now and drive!"
The driver gave me a hateful look.I could sense he was weighing the choice between hitting me in the face and losing hisjob.After a long moment's silence,he took a deep breath, turned around,and drove on.
On the taxi's radio,somebody was singing"Don't Worry,Be Happy,"but I felt very far from happy.I looked at Lev and tried to find another ray of light in that unpleasant ride,but I couldn't.I smiled at Lev and held his hand.He looked at me hard,but didn't smile back. "Daddy,"he asked,"what did the man say "
“The man said,"I answered quickly,as if it were nothing,"that when you're riding in a car, you have to watch how you move your legs so you don't break anything."Lev nodded,looked out the window and a second later asked,"And what did you say to the man "
“Me ”I said to Lev,trying to gain a little time."I told the man that he was right,but that he should say quietly and politely,and not yell."
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。
Paragraph 1:"But you yelled at him,"Lev said,confused.
2:The driver the car and turned around.
