（2026·岳阳模拟） Just before the Spring Festival of 2025, residents of Zhaoquan Village in Tianjin received rice, flour and other daily necessities as gifts. These gifts came from the village's striving collective economy under the leadership of the young village Party branch headed by 30-year-old Secretary Zhao Rui. After graduating from Tianjin Medical University in 2017, Zhao returned to her hometown to join the rural revitalization drive. "This land is my roots. I want to help it have a brighter future," she stated.
In May 2024, with local government support, Zhao and her team launched Douyin and Kuaishou accounts, aiming to explore new paths for village development through these platforms. They created a video series "100 Simple Acts for the Villagers," featuring help for left-behind elderly such as teaching them to use smartphones. These videos not only enriched the elderly's lives but also boosted the village's popularity, drawing investment to this area.
The social media drive brought tangible benefits to the village. Soon after the accounts were established, a forest farm was built, offering family-friendly outdoor activities and creating numerous local jobs. More importantly, the platforms became an effective channel for selling the village's farm products.

（2026·岳阳模拟） When Amanda Rulten picked up a cheap coloring book and some colored pens, she didn't expect the activity to stick. It came when she was in the middle of a health crisis. Eighteen months ago, she had an infection and was rushed into emergency surgery, followed by numerous hospital stays. "My mental health has completely collapsed," said Rulten. "I can't do the hobbies I once enjoyed, so having time to sit and be present in something that isn't demanding or causing me harm has been really helpful. It's about taking five minutes away from everything." Gradually, coloring turned into her daily routine.
Coloring books for adults aren't a new phenomenon. Early "paint books" were marketed to grown-ups in the late 18th century, often framed as educational or moral tools. But adult coloring really caught on around 2015, when Johanna Basford's intricate (错综复杂的) drawings in her book "Secret Garden" became sensations. Recently, a "cozy coloring" aesthetic (美学的) style has dominated adult coloring charts — simple line art with large shapes meant for quick, relaxing fills. Of Amazon's best-sellers in October 2025, nearly half of the top adult coloring books emphasized the same "Bold & Easy" style — a pull toward accessibility over intricacy, intended to comfort tired minds.
For Girija Kaimal, professor of the Creative Arts Therapies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, coloring's appeal runs deeper than relaxation. "I think of us as 21st century hunter-gatherers. Our bodies and minds are tens of thousands of years old. We worked with our hands; we used all our senses. Coloring takes us back there," she explained. As for why it feels rewarding, "By the end of it, you have something colorful, which signals health to us," she explained. "In nature, when you see color, it usually signifies abundance, a fertile landscape."
Kaimal said that this kind of activity "let people play again," giving them a safe way to create without fear of failure. And skill doesn't matter. "We are allowed to play as adults, however silly," Kaimal added.
8．What drove Rulten to buy a coloring book
A．The desire to develop a new hobby.
B．The wish to have fun in the hospital.
C．The attempt to cure her mental disease.
D．The need to relax mind during treatment.
9．Which of the following belongs to the "Bold & Easy" style
A．Plain line drawings with broad outlines.
B．Intricate patterns requiring careful filling.
C．Accessible pictures with moral messages.
D．Large detailed shapes for creative expression.
10．What is the main purpose of paragraph 3
A．To explain healing mechanisms of coloring.
B．To illustrate the rewarding effects of coloring.
C．To compare ancient and modern ways of relaxation.
D．To build connection between physical health and coloring.
11．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．A Relaxing Tool for Patients.
B．A Silly but Funny coloring Book.
C．The Rise of"Bold & Easy" coloring.
D．The Playful Journey of Mental healing.
四、D
（2026·岳阳模拟） One person's trash is another person's… jet fuel Strange as it might sound, researchers at the University of Illinois outlined a strategy for taking excess food waste, changing it into bio-fuel, and then "upgrading" that fuel into jet fuel that can be put to direct use this week in Nature Communications.
The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based (生物质) SAF Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived (提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel.
In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced "pressure cooker" to fast-forward nature's timeline.
With plenty of raw oil extracted, the researchers then set out to transform it into jet fuel. The first step involved removing salt, ash, moisture, and other impurities. After that, they used a cleaning process to get rid of other undesirable elements such as nitrogen, and oxygen. What remained were the specific hydrocarbons (烃) required to make jet fuel.
The team took their food-waste derived jet fuels and tested it against current fuel standards. It passed the screening test and met industry requirements without needing to introduce any special additives, meaning the fuel would theoretically power a commercial airplane.
The findings are a first step to show plane fuel derived from food waste is at least possible. Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether. "Our research helps solve the science and engineering problems, and then the industry needs to step in," University of Illinois professor and corresponding author Yuanhui Zhang said.
12．What did the researchers at the University of Illinois hope to achieve
A．Developing a new way to handle food waste.
B．Changing excess food waste into usable jet fuel.
C．Creating jet fuel directly from untreated food waste.
D．Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste treatment.
13．Why does the author mention the EPA's estimates in Paragraph 2
A．To support developing low-emission jet fuel.
B．To stress air pollution from commercial aircraft.
C．To compare emissions of conventional jet fuel and SAF.
D．To prove transportation is the top US greenhouse gas emitter.
14．What can be inferred about the HTL process
A．It removes impurities by heating.
B．It breaks down organic matter naturally.
C．It creates the hydrocarbons jet fuel needs.
D．It resembles a faster natural oil-creation process.
15．What is the author's attitude to the commercial use of the new fuel
A．Optimistic. B．Cautious. C．Dismissive. D．Uncertain.

（2026·岳阳模拟） Sixteen years ago, when American teenager Connor decided to move to China, he had a certain picture of China in his mind. He had the common misconception that it was a "backwards" country, a place where time moved slowly. 16． He was excited about his adventure, but he had no idea that the reality would be completely different and would change his life forever.
When his plane landed in Beijing, the first thing that shocked Connor was the city's enormous size and the number of people.

Today, 16 years later, China is, beyond doubt, Connor's home. Looking back, he smiles when he thinks about his old ideas. His life in China showed him how important it is to experience things for yourself. His journey taught him that our perspective on the world can change in wonderful ways when we open our minds. For Connor, China was not just a destination. 20．

All those photos I took encouraged focusing on the 34． — the warmth of a friend's smile, the calm of a quiet evening, and the joy of casual picnics.
It worked. I made a photo book. It 35． me of gratitude and that life moves at its own pace. The book is now a family tradition. The photos didn't fix everything, but they gave me light in the dark. And, one photo at a time, that made all the difference.

七、第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分)
（2026·岳阳模拟）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。
Golf: China's ancient game
A mural painting of Yuan dynasty-era chuiwan(捶丸) 36． (preserve) on the wall of a Water God Temple in Hungtung county, Shanxi province at present. The painting depicts a Mongolian official, some Han officials and assistants. The sticks and devices are fairly identical to 37． of modern golf.
It is generally recognized that the Scots may well have made 38． golf a game of 18 holes. But the jury's still out on who first came up with the idea of an open-air game 39． players use a stick to hit a ball towards a target. The most fascinating—and in many ways convincing—evidence of an early version of golf 40． (document) in history comes from China.
A game called chuiwan—chui meaning to hit and wan meaning ball—became popular in the Song dynasty. Players used ten clubs to hit wooden balls towards 41． (bright) coloured flags. There was even an early equivalent of the R&A Rules of Golf: Classic of the Ball, published during the Yuan dynasty. It lays out the rules, and places great emphasis 42． sportsmanship and correct behaviour—echoes of modern golf, where etiquette(礼仪) is such an important element of the game. There's also a 43． (refer) in an ancient book to an official of the Southern Tang dynasty 44． (tell) his daughter to"dig holes in the ground" so he could hit a ball into them using a special stick.
The debate over who got there first will go on, 45． at least one thing is certain. Chuiwan, played by Chinese emperors 1,000 years ago, certainly qualifies as a royal and ancient game.

47．（2026·岳阳模拟）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。
My next-door neighbor, Pat, hadn't said a friendly word since the day we moved in. Pat lived alone and worked from home, with visits from his teenage son and daughter. I could understand his need for privacy and my family had tried our best not to bother him. However, things got worse that summer morning.
At that time, homeowners in our neighbourhood were putting up fences to contain their pets and kids. We offered Pat the opportunity to share the cost of a fence between our yards. He first agreed, but later became unwilling. Finally, we just had the fence put up ourselves.
On that particular morning, I had been gardening out front when Pat threw a large doggy waste from his lawn onto ours. Frustrated, I walked right over and tried to explain, "Our dog is a Chihuahua! There is no way he did that."
But Pat wouldn't listen and claimed that our dog did it. "Keep your dog and your kids off my yard, and you get off my yard too," he shouted.
My frustration turned to anger. I had never been treated with such disrespect by someone, especially a neighbor. I stormed in my front door and called my husband, Kevin, at work. His advice: Stay away from Pat.
And so I did. Pat returned the favor. We tried to avoid any kind of unexpected run-in with each other. Weeks passed in such awkwardness until one morning, when I saw Pat tending vegetables in his yard. Suddenly, I felt a twinge of guilt. I was no more a model neighbor than Pat was! I'd been hurt by his words; maybe he'd been hurt by mine. I felt ready to do something. But how should I take a neighborly step forward I turned to Kevin for advice, who assured me that an opportunity would present itself if my heart was truly willing.
Then one day, I noticed something moving in the backyard vegetable garden. It was an orange kitten (小猫). I had raised kittens for years and I loved doing it. Nothing melted my heart like a sweet, innocent kitten.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just then, a knock sounded at the front door.

The kitten became a frequent visitor ever since.

13．推理判断题。根据第二段"The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based(生物质) SAF Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived(提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel."美国环境保护署估算，2022年仅交通领域的温室气体排放量，就约占美国温室气体总排放量的29%，其中约7%来自商用飞机。那所谓的生物质可持续航空燃油又是什么情况呢？有估算显示，这类主要以有机物质为原料提取制成的燃油，相比传统航空燃油，能将航空飞行的碳排放降低多达80%。可知，作者先说明航空飞行的温室气体排放现状，再引出SAF的减排优势，提及环保署的数据是为了佐证研发低排放航空燃油的必要性，从而支撑研发该燃油的观点。故选A。
14．推理判断题。根据第三段"In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced ‘pressure cooker' to fast-forward nature's timeline."在这项新实验中，该研究团队采用了一种名为HTL的化学工艺，这种工艺本质上模仿了地球数百万年来由有机物自然生成原油的过程，只是省去了漫长的等待时间。HTL工艺就像一个先进的"高压反应釜"，将自然的演化进程大幅加快。可知，HTL工艺模仿了地球自然生成原油的方式，且大幅缩短了时间，也就是类似一种加速版的自然造油过程。故选D。
15．推理判断题。通读全文，作者先介绍了该技术的研发成果——餐厨垃圾可转化为符合行业标准的航空燃油，这是积极的一面；以及第六段中的"Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether."然而，要生产出足够供应一整架客机的燃油，则是另一回事了。并引用研究者的话说明技术难题解决后，还需要行业的参与才能实现商业化。作者既肯定了技术的可行性，又客观指出其商业化面临的巨大挑战，态度是谨慎的。故选B。

He had the common misconception that it was a ‘backwards' country, a place where time moved slowly. "他有着一个常见的误解，认为这是一个"落后"的国家，一个时光缓慢流逝的地方。说明他对中国有误解；以及空后"He was excited about his adventure, but he had no idea that the reality would be completely different and would change his life forever. "他对这次冒险感到兴奋，但他不知道现实会完全不同，会永远改变他的生活。说明他尚且不知道会发生什么。 D. He imagined quiet streets and an old-fashioned way of life. "他想象着宁静的街道和一种老式的生活方式。" 承接上文他的误解，说明他误以为中国还是一种老式落后的生活，能引领下文，符合语境，故选D。

He learned the language, made local friends, and began to understand the new culture."然而，康纳慢慢开始适应。他学习了语言，结交了当地朋友，并开始理解新的文化。其中"However"表示转折，说明前文应提及康纳在适应过程中遇到的困难。 C. Living in such a dynamic environment was challenging. "生活在这样一个充满活力的环境中是具有挑战性的"指出这种环境给康纳带来的适应困难，与下文的"慢慢适应"形成转折。故选C。
19．根据空前"He discovered that people were very knowledgeable and often enjoyed discussing interesting topics."他发现人们非常有见识，经常喜欢讨论有趣的话题。介绍了康纳在中国的发现之一——中国人有见识、爱讨论；以及空后"In America, he had been quiet, but living in China helped him become much more outgoing."在美国时，他很安静，但在中国生活帮助他变得外向了很多。具体说明了中国生活对他性格的改变。 F. He also found that the experience changed his own personality. "他还发现这段经历改变了自己的性格"承接上文的发现，同时引出下文对性格改变的具体阐述。故选F。
20．根据空前"For Connor, China was not just a destination."对 Connor 来说，中国不仅仅是一个目的地。强调中国对康纳的意义远超"目的地"，此处需要进一步说明中国对他的深层意义。 A. It became the place where he truly grew up. "它成了他真正成长的地方"承接上文的表述，具体阐释了中国对Connor的深层意义——不仅是停留的地方，更是见证他成长、改变他的地方。故选A。

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，高尔夫是否为中国古老运动展开探讨。山西洪洞县水神庙墙上有元代捶丸（chuiwan）壁画，其球具与现代高尔夫相似。虽苏格兰人让高尔夫成为18洞运动，但关于谁最早发明用球杆击球向目标的户外运动尚无定论，而中国有诸多证据表明捶丸是早期高尔夫版本，该游戏在宋朝流行，元代有类似高尔夫规则的《丸经》，且古籍记载南唐官员让女儿挖洞以便自己用球杆击球入洞。尽管关于起源的争论会持续，但捶丸作为千年前中国皇帝玩的运动，无疑可称古老且高贵的运动。
【点评】考查语法填空，本题考点涉及时态语态，代词，定语从句，非谓语动词，副词，介词，名词，连词以及固定搭配等多个知识点的考查，是一篇历史类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
36．句意：目前，一幅元代捶丸壁画保存在山西洪洞县水神庙的墙上。 preserve "保存"，是谓语动词，与主语mural painting之间为被动关系；再结合时间状语at present表示现在时间，强调目前存在的状态，应用一般现在时，故填 is preserved 。
37．句意：球杆和设备与现代高尔夫的球杆和设备非常相似。此处需要替代前文提到的复数名词sticks and devices，用于比较结构中，指代同类异物。因此填those。
38．句意：人们普遍认为苏格兰人使高尔夫成为18洞运动。此处需要一个代词代指前文提到的golf这一球类运动，作made的宾语，因此填it。
39．句意：但关于谁最先发明了这种玩家用球杆将球击向目标的户外游戏，目前仍无定论。 players use a stick to hit a ball towards a target 是限制性定语从句，先行词为an open-air game，从句主干完整，先行词在从句中作地点状语，因此填where。
40．句意：历史上有关高尔夫早期形态的最有趣、且在诸多方面最具说服力的文字记载，均出自中国。 document"记录，记载" ，动词，此处作后置定语，应用非谓语动词，且与evidence在逻辑上是动宾关系，应用过去分词，故填documented。
41．句意：玩家用十支球杆将木球击向颜色鲜艳的旗帜。 bright "明亮的"此处修饰形容词coloured，需用副词形式。形容词bright变为副词brightly。因此填brightly。
42．考查介词。句意：它制定规则并特别强调体育精神与正确行为。lay emphasis on,固定短语，"重视，强调"，故填on。
43．句意：一本古籍中也提及，南唐的一位官员吩咐女儿"在地上挖几个洞"，以便他能用一根特制的球杆将球击入其中。 refer "参考"，动词。不定冠词a后需要接可数名词单数，将动词refer变为名词形式，故填reference。
44．句意：一本古籍中也提及，南唐的一位官员吩咐女儿"在地上挖几个洞"，以便他能用一根特制的球杆将球击入其中。 tell "告诉"，动词。句子谓语结构是there is，且空处所在的部分无连词，因此需要用非谓语，official和tell是主动关系，用现在分词作后置定语，修饰an official，因此填telling。
45．句意：关于谁先发明的争论将持续，但至少有一点是确定的。前后两个分句存在转折关系，前句说明争论仍在继续，后句指出有一件事可以确定，因此填but。
46．【答案】Dear editor,
To celebrate the 31st World Book Day, I'm writing to propose some reading activities for our school library.
It would be advisable to host themed reading salons centered on literary classics every week. With guided text analysis and group discussions, students can foster critical thinking and deeper literary appreciation. Besides, another recommendation is to launch a book drift campaign via a dedicated corner, where students can leave and pick up books freely. This not only maximizes the use of idle books on campus but also creates a relaxed interactive reading atmosphere, making reading more appealing to students.
I am convinced that these activities will inject vitality into our campus reading culture. Hope my plan can be taken into account.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

47．【答案】Paragraph 1
Just then, a knock sounded at the front door. I opened it to find Pat. His face was flushed, and he shuffled his feet. "The kitten in your garden," he said, "it's my daughter's. She's worried about it." I nodded and led him to the backyard. The kitten purred happily as Pat picked it up. Seizing the moment, I said, "Pat, I think we should talk. I'm sorry for the things I said." Pat looked at me, a bit taken aback, then nodded. "Me too," he mumbled.
Paragraph 2
The kitten became a frequent visitor ever since. It would scurry between our yards, bringing us closer. One sunny day, Pat waved me over. "Look at these tomatoes," he said, smiling. We chatted about gardening, and he offered me some freshly picked ones. As we stood there, laughing and sharing, I knew the kitten had mended the rift between us. Our once-tense relationship had blossomed into a warm friendship.
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文；读后续写；故事阅读类
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，本文讲述了作者搬来后与邻居Pat关系不睦，经历围栏和狗粪便冲突后，作者想改善关系时出现一只小猫，为故事发展带来转机。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容"就在这时，前门传来一阵敲门声。"可知，第一段可描写Pat尴尬的神态动作，作者带他找到小猫后，抓住时机向他道歉，Pat有所回应。②由第二段首句内容"从那以后，这只小猫成了常客"可知，第二段可描写小猫频繁往来促进作者和Pat关系改善，通过Pat 与作者交流园艺、分享番茄，展现两人关系从紧张变为友好。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。【点评】该续写部分与前文紧密相连，过渡自然流畅。前文提到"我"因与邻居 Pat 关系紧张而苦恼，此时小猫的出现成为转机。当听到敲门声，发现是 Pat 因女儿担心小猫而来，这一情节顺理成章，既符合生活逻辑，又巧妙地为两人化解矛盾提供了契机。从 Pat 前来找小猫，到"我"借机道歉，再到小猫成为常客后两人关系逐渐缓和，最后发展成温暖的友谊，整个情节发展层层递进，符合故事发展的内在逻辑，没有突兀之感。文中有一些好的词句，例如： The kitten purred happily as Pat picked it up. 运用了as引导时间状语从句； As we stood there, laughing and sharing, I knew the kitten had mended the rift between us. 运用了as引导的时间状语从句和省略that引导的宾语从句。

（2026·岳阳模拟） When Amanda Rulten picked up a cheap coloring book and some colored pens, she didn't expect the activity to stick. It came when she was in the middle of a health crisis. Eighteen months ago, she had an infection and was rushed into emergency surgery, followed by numerous hospital stays. "My mental health has completely collapsed," said Rulten. "I can't do the hobbies I once enjoyed, so having time to sit and be present in something that isn't demanding or causing me harm has been really helpful. It's about taking five minutes away from everything." Gradually, coloring turned into her daily routine.
Coloring books for adults aren't a new phenomenon. Early "paint books" were marketed to grown-ups in the late 18th century, often framed as educational or moral tools. But adult coloring really caught on around 2015, when Johanna Basford's intricate (错综复杂的) drawings in her book "Secret Garden" became sensations. Recently, a "cozy coloring" aesthetic (美学的) style has dominated adult coloring charts — simple line art with large shapes meant for quick, relaxing fills. Of Amazon's best-sellers in October 2025, nearly half of the top adult coloring books emphasized the same "Bold & Easy" style — a pull toward accessibility over intricacy, intended to comfort tired minds.
For Girija Kaimal, professor of the Creative Arts Therapies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, coloring's appeal runs deeper than relaxation. "I think of us as 21st century hunter-gatherers. Our bodies and minds are tens of thousands of years old. We worked with our hands; we used all our senses. Coloring takes us back there," she explained. As for why it feels rewarding, "By the end of it, you have something colorful, which signals health to us," she explained. "In nature, when you see color, it usually signifies abundance, a fertile landscape."
Kaimal said that this kind of activity "let people play again," giving them a safe way to create without fear of failure. And skill doesn't matter. "We are allowed to play as adults, however silly," Kaimal added.
8．What drove Rulten to buy a coloring book
A．The desire to develop a new hobby.
B．The wish to have fun in the hospital.
C．The attempt to cure her mental disease.
D．The need to relax mind during treatment.
9．Which of the following belongs to the "Bold & Easy" style
A．Plain line drawings with broad outlines.
B．Intricate patterns requiring careful filling.
C．Accessible pictures with moral messages.
D．Large detailed shapes for creative expression.
10．What is the main purpose of paragraph 3
A．To explain healing mechanisms of coloring.
B．To illustrate the rewarding effects of coloring.
C．To compare ancient and modern ways of relaxation.
D．To build connection between physical health and coloring.
11．What can be a suitable title for the text
A．A Relaxing Tool for Patients.
B．A Silly but Funny coloring Book.
C．The Rise of"Bold & Easy" coloring.
D．The Playful Journey of Mental healing.
【答案】8．D
9．A

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，以 Amanda Rulten 在健康危机期间通过涂色书缓解精神压力并逐渐将其变成日常习惯为例，引出成人涂色书并非新事物，早期"涂色书"在18世纪末就面向成年人销售，2015年左右成人涂色真正流行起来，如今"舒适涂色"美学风格盛行，亚马逊2025年10月畅销成人涂色书近半强调"大胆且简单"风格。德雷塞尔大学创意艺术疗法教授 Girija Kaimal 认为涂色的吸引力不仅在于放松，还能让人们回到依靠双手和感官劳作的时代，给人带来成就感，且这种活动让人们重新玩耍，无需担心失败，技能也不重要。
【点评】考查阅读理解，本题考点涉及细节理解，推理判断和标题归纳三个题型的考查，是一篇科普类阅读，通读全文，理解文章大意，阅读题目后返回原文阅读并找出与题目相对应的内容，仔细核对，选择符合原文原意的答案，完成后再次阅读并检查。
8．细节理解题。根据第一段中的"It came when she was in the middle of a health crisis. Eighteen months ago, she had an infection and was rushed into emergency surgery, followed by numerous hospital stays. ‘My mental health has completely collapsed,' said Rulten. ‘I can't do the hobbies I once enjoyed, so having time to sit and be present in something that isn't demanding or causing me harm has been really helpful. It's about taking five minutes away from everything.'"这发生在她遭遇健康危机的时候。18个月前，她因感染被紧急送往手术室，之后又多次住院。"我的心理健康彻底崩溃了，"Rulten说，"我无法再从事曾经喜欢的爱好，所以能有时间坐下来投入到一件不费力、不会伤害我的事情中，这对我帮助很大。这是一种从所有事情中抽离五分钟的方式。"可知，Rulten购买涂色书是为了在治疗期间放松身心。故选D。
9．细节理解题。根据第二段中的"Recently, a ‘cozy coloring' aesthetic (美学的) style has dominated adult coloring charts — simple line art with large shapes meant for quick, relaxing fills."最近，一种‘舒适涂色'的美学风格主导了成人涂色书榜单——带有大色块的简单线条画，旨在快速、轻松地填充。可知，"Bold & Easy"风格指的是带有大轮廓的简单线条画。故选A。
10．推理判断题。根据第三段"For Girija Kaimal, professor of the Creative Arts Therapies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, coloring's appeal runs deeper than relaxation. ‘I think of us as 21st century hunter-gatherers. Our bodies and minds are tens of thousands of years old. We worked with our hands; we used all our senses. Coloring takes us back there,' she explained. As for why it feels rewarding, ‘By the end of it, you have something colorful, which signals health to us,' she explained. ‘In nature, when you see color, it usually signifies abundance, a fertile landscape.'"对于费城德雷塞尔大学创意艺术疗法教授Girija Kaimal来说，涂色的吸引力远不止放松。"我认为我们是21世纪的狩猎采集者。我们的身体和大脑有几万年的历史。我们用双手劳作，调动所有感官。涂色把我们带回了那个时代，"她解释道。至于为什么会感觉有意义，"完成之后，你会得到一件色彩斑斓的作品，这对我们来说是健康的信号，"她解释道，"在自然界中，当你看到色彩时，它通常象征着丰饶、一片肥沃的土地。"可知，第三段主要解释了涂色活动的疗愈机制。故选A。
11．标题归纳题。根据第四段"Kaimal said that this kind of activity ‘let people play again,' giving them a safe way to create without fear of failure. And skill doesn't matter. ‘We are allowed to play as adults, however silly,' Kaimal added."Kaimal说，这种活动"让人们再次玩耍"，为他们提供了一种安全的创作方式，无需担心失败。而且技能并不重要。"作为成年人，我们被允许玩耍，不管这看起来多么傻气，"Kaimal补充道；以及文章中Amanda Rulten通过涂色疗愈心理健康的经历可知，本文核心是涂色作为一种"玩耍"方式，对现代人心理健康的疗愈作用。因此"心灵疗愈的趣味之旅"适合作为本文标题。故选D。
四、D
（2026·岳阳模拟） One person's trash is another person's… jet fuel Strange as it might sound, researchers at the University of Illinois outlined a strategy for taking excess food waste, changing it into bio-fuel, and then "upgrading" that fuel into jet fuel that can be put to direct use this week in Nature Communications.
The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based (生物质) SAF Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived (提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel.
In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced "pressure cooker" to fast-forward nature's timeline.
With plenty of raw oil extracted, the researchers then set out to transform it into jet fuel. The first step involved removing salt, ash, moisture, and other impurities. After that, they used a cleaning process to get rid of other undesirable elements such as nitrogen, and oxygen. What remained were the specific hydrocarbons (烃) required to make jet fuel.
The team took their food-waste derived jet fuels and tested it against current fuel standards. It passed the screening test and met industry requirements without needing to introduce any special additives, meaning the fuel would theoretically power a commercial airplane.
The findings are a first step to show plane fuel derived from food waste is at least possible. Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether. "Our research helps solve the science and engineering problems, and then the industry needs to step in," University of Illinois professor and corresponding author Yuanhui Zhang said.
12．What did the researchers at the University of Illinois hope to achieve
A．Developing a new way to handle food waste.
B．Changing excess food waste into usable jet fuel.
C．Creating jet fuel directly from untreated food waste.
D．Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste treatment.
13．Why does the author mention the EPA's estimates in Paragraph 2
A．To support developing low-emission jet fuel.
B．To stress air pollution from commercial aircraft.
C．To compare emissions of conventional jet fuel and SAF.
D．To prove transportation is the top US greenhouse gas emitter.
14．What can be inferred about the HTL process
A．It removes impurities by heating.
B．It breaks down organic matter naturally.
C．It creates the hydrocarbons jet fuel needs.
D．It resembles a faster natural oil-creation process.
15．What is the author's attitude to the commercial use of the new fuel
A．Optimistic. B．Cautious. C．Dismissive. D．Uncertain.
【答案】12．B

【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，伊利诺伊大学的研究人员提出一项策略，通过化学过程HTL将多余的食物垃圾转化为生物燃料，再将其"升级"为可直接使用的航空燃料。交通运输是美国温室气体排放的重要来源，其中商业飞机占一定比例，而生物质基可持续航空燃料（SAF）有望大幅减少飞行排放。研究人员利用HTL模拟地球自然形成原油的过程，将食物垃圾快速转化为原油，再经去杂质和清洁处理得到符合标准的航空燃料烃类。该燃料通过测试，理论上可为商用飞机提供动力。不过，目前研究仅证明其可行性，要实现大规模供应仍需产业介入。
【点评】考查阅读理解，本题考点涉及细节理解和推理判断两个题型的考查，是一篇科技类阅读，考生需要准确捕捉细节信息，并根据上下文的逻辑关系，进行分析，推理，从而选出正确答案。
12．细节理解题。根据第一段中的"Strange as it might sound, researchers at the University of Illinois outlined a strategy for taking excess food waste, changing it into bio-fuel, and then "upgrading" that fuel into jet fuel that can be put to direct use this week in Nature Communications."尽管听起来或许有些不可思议，但伊利诺伊大学的研究人员本周在《自然 通讯》期刊上公布了一项研究策略——将多余的餐厨垃圾转化为生物燃料，再将这种燃料进一步提纯升级为可直接投入使用的航空燃油。可知，研究者的研究目标是把多余的餐厨垃圾转化为可直接使用的航空燃油。故选B。
13．推理判断题。根据第二段"The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based(生物质) SAF Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived(提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel."美国环境保护署估算，2022年仅交通领域的温室气体排放量，就约占美国温室气体总排放量的29%，其中约7%来自商用飞机。那所谓的生物质可持续航空燃油又是什么情况呢？有估算显示，这类主要以有机物质为原料提取制成的燃油，相比传统航空燃油，能将航空飞行的碳排放降低多达80%。可知，作者先说明航空飞行的温室气体排放现状，再引出SAF的减排优势，提及环保署的数据是为了佐证研发低排放航空燃油的必要性，从而支撑研发该燃油的观点。故选A。
14．推理判断题。根据第三段"In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced ‘pressure cooker' to fast-forward nature's timeline."在这项新实验中，该研究团队采用了一种名为HTL的化学工艺，这种工艺本质上模仿了地球数百万年来由有机物自然生成原油的过程，只是省去了漫长的等待时间。HTL工艺就像一个先进的"高压反应釜"，将自然的演化进程大幅加快。可知，HTL工艺模仿了地球自然生成原油的方式，且大幅缩短了时间，也就是类似一种加速版的自然造油过程。故选D。
15．推理判断题。通读全文，作者先介绍了该技术的研发成果——餐厨垃圾可转化为符合行业标准的航空燃油，这是积极的一面；以及第六段中的"Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether."然而，要生产出足够供应一整架客机的燃油，则是另一回事了。并引用研究者的话说明技术难题解决后，还需要行业的参与才能实现商业化。作者既肯定了技术的可行性，又客观指出其商业化面临的巨大挑战，态度是谨慎的。故选B。

33．句意：我寻找得越多，它们似乎就越常见。A：diverse"多样的"；B：popular"受欢迎的"；C：common"常见的"；D：special " 特别的 "。根据空后"they were never rare, just unnoticed"可知，美好的事情并不罕见，只是没有被注意到，所以作者寻找得越多，它们就越常见。故选C。
34．句意：我拍的所有照片都鼓励我关注积极的一面——朋友微笑的温暖，宁静夜晚的平静，以及随意野餐的快乐。A：features"特征"；B：positives"积极面"；C：basics"基础"；D：details " 细节 "。根据空后"the warmth of a friend's smile, the calm of a quiet evening, and the joy of casual picnics"可知，这些都是积极的一面。故选B。
35．句意：它让我想起感恩，想起生活以自己的节奏前进。A：warned"警告"；B：informed"通知"；C：reminded"提醒"；D：convinced " 使信服 "。根据空后"me of gratitude and that life moves at its own pace"可知，照片书让作者想起感恩和生活节奏。remind sb. of sth.固定短语，"提醒某人某事"。故选C。
七、第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分)
（2026·岳阳模拟）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。
Golf: China's ancient game
A mural painting of Yuan dynasty-era chuiwan(捶丸) 36． (preserve) on the wall of a Water God Temple in Hungtung county, Shanxi province at present. The painting depicts a Mongolian official, some Han officials and assistants. The sticks and devices are fairly identical to 37． of modern golf.
It is generally recognized that the Scots may well have made 38． golf a game of 18 holes. But the jury's still out on who first came up with the idea of an open-air game 39． players use a stick to hit a ball towards a target. The most fascinating—and in many ways convincing—evidence of an early version of golf 40． (document) in history comes from China.
A game called chuiwan—chui meaning to hit and wan meaning ball—became popular in the Song dynasty. Players used ten clubs to hit wooden balls towards 41． (bright) coloured flags. There was even an early equivalent of the R&A Rules of Golf: Classic of the Ball, published during the Yuan dynasty. It lays out the rules, and places great emphasis 42． sportsmanship and correct behaviour—echoes of modern golf, where etiquette(礼仪) is such an important element of the game. There's also a 43． (refer) in an ancient book to an official of the Southern Tang dynasty 44． (tell) his daughter to"dig holes in the ground" so he could hit a ball into them using a special stick.
The debate over who got there first will go on, 45． at least one thing is certain. Chuiwan, played by Chinese emperors 1,000 years ago, certainly qualifies as a royal and ancient game.
【答案】36．is preserved；37．those；38．it；39．where；40．documented；41．brightly；42．on；43．reference；44．telling；45．but
【知识点】说明文；社会历史类；it；brightly；but；document；on；reference；tell；those；where
【解析】【分析】本文是一篇说明文，高尔夫是否为中国古老运动展开探讨。山西洪洞县水神庙墙上有元代捶丸（chuiwan）壁画，其球具与现代高尔夫相似。虽苏格兰人让高尔夫成为18洞运动，但关于谁最早发明用球杆击球向目标的户外运动尚无定论，而中国有诸多证据表明捶丸是早期高尔夫版本，该游戏在宋朝流行，元代有类似高尔夫规则的《丸经》，且古籍记载南唐官员让女儿挖洞以便自己用球杆击球入洞。尽管关于起源的争论会持续，但捶丸作为千年前中国皇帝玩的运动，无疑可称古老且高贵的运动。
【点评】考查语法填空，本题考点涉及时态语态，代词，定语从句，非谓语动词，副词，介词，名词，连词以及固定搭配等多个知识点的考查，是一篇历史类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
36．句意：目前，一幅元代捶丸壁画保存在山西洪洞县水神庙的墙上。 preserve "保存"，是谓语动词，与主语mural painting之间为被动关系；再结合时间状语at present表示现在时间，强调目前存在的状态，应用一般现在时，故填 is preserved 。
37．句意：球杆和设备与现代高尔夫的球杆和设备非常相似。此处需要替代前文提到的复数名词sticks and devices，用于比较结构中，指代同类异物。因此填those。
38．句意：人们普遍认为苏格兰人使高尔夫成为18洞运动。此处需要一个代词代指前文提到的golf这一球类运动，作made的宾语，因此填it。
39．句意：但关于谁最先发明了这种玩家用球杆将球击向目标的户外游戏，目前仍无定论。 players use a stick to hit a ball towards a target 是限制性定语从句，先行词为an open-air game，从句主干完整，先行词在从句中作地点状语，因此填where。
40．句意：历史上有关高尔夫早期形态的最有趣、且在诸多方面最具说服力的文字记载，均出自中国。 document"记录，记载" ，动词，此处作后置定语，应用非谓语动词，且与evidence在逻辑上是动宾关系，应用过去分词，故填documented。
41．句意：玩家用十支球杆将木球击向颜色鲜艳的旗帜。 bright "明亮的"此处修饰形容词coloured，需用副词形式。形容词bright变为副词brightly。因此填brightly。
42．考查介词。句意：它制定规则并特别强调体育精神与正确行为。lay emphasis on,固定短语，"重视，强调"，故填on。
43．句意：一本古籍中也提及，南唐的一位官员吩咐女儿"在地上挖几个洞"，以便他能用一根特制的球杆将球击入其中。 refer "参考"，动词。不定冠词a后需要接可数名词单数，将动词refer变为名词形式，故填reference。
44．句意：一本古籍中也提及，南唐的一位官员吩咐女儿"在地上挖几个洞"，以便他能用一根特制的球杆将球击入其中。 tell "告诉"，动词。句子谓语结构是there is，且空处所在的部分无连词，因此需要用非谓语，official和tell是主动关系，用现在分词作后置定语，修饰an official，因此填telling。
45．句意：关于谁先发明的争论将持续，但至少有一点是确定的。前后两个分句存在转折关系，前句说明争论仍在继续，后句指出有一件事可以确定，因此填but。

Dear editor,
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear editor,
To celebrate the 31st World Book Day, I'm writing to propose some reading activities for our school library.
It would be advisable to host themed reading salons centered on literary classics every week. With guided text analysis and group discussions, students can foster critical thinking and deeper literary appreciation. Besides, another recommendation is to launch a book drift campaign via a dedicated corner, where students can leave and pick up books freely. This not only maximizes the use of idle books on campus but also creates a relaxed interactive reading atmosphere, making reading more appealing to students.
I am convinced that these activities will inject vitality into our campus reading culture. Hope my plan can be taken into account.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

九、第二节(满分25分)
47．（2026·岳阳模拟）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。
My next-door neighbor, Pat, hadn't said a friendly word since the day we moved in. Pat lived alone and worked from home, with visits from his teenage son and daughter. I could understand his need for privacy and my family had tried our best not to bother him. However, things got worse that summer morning.
At that time, homeowners in our neighbourhood were putting up fences to contain their pets and kids. We offered Pat the opportunity to share the cost of a fence between our yards. He first agreed, but later became unwilling. Finally, we just had the fence put up ourselves.
On that particular morning, I had been gardening out front when Pat threw a large doggy waste from his lawn onto ours. Frustrated, I walked right over and tried to explain, "Our dog is a Chihuahua! There is no way he did that."
But Pat wouldn't listen and claimed that our dog did it. "Keep your dog and your kids off my yard, and you get off my yard too," he shouted.
My frustration turned to anger. I had never been treated with such disrespect by someone, especially a neighbor. I stormed in my front door and called my husband, Kevin, at work. His advice: Stay away from Pat.
And so I did. Pat returned the favor. We tried to avoid any kind of unexpected run-in with each other. Weeks passed in such awkwardness until one morning, when I saw Pat tending vegetables in his yard. Suddenly, I felt a twinge of guilt. I was no more a model neighbor than Pat was! I'd been hurt by his words; maybe he'd been hurt by mine. I felt ready to do something. But how should I take a neighborly step forward I turned to Kevin for advice, who assured me that an opportunity would present itself if my heart was truly willing.
Then one day, I noticed something moving in the backyard vegetable garden. It was an orange kitten (小猫). I had raised kittens for years and I loved doing it. Nothing melted my heart like a sweet, innocent kitten.
注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右；
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just then, a knock sounded at the front door.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The kitten became a frequent visitor ever since.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1
Just then, a knock sounded at the front door. I opened it to find Pat. His face was flushed, and he shuffled his feet. "The kitten in your garden," he said, "it's my daughter's. She's worried about it." I nodded and led him to the backyard. The kitten purred happily as Pat picked it up. Seizing the moment, I said, "Pat, I think we should talk. I'm sorry for the things I said." Pat looked at me, a bit taken aback, then nodded. "Me too," he mumbled.
Paragraph 2
The kitten became a frequent visitor ever since. It would scurry between our yards, bringing us closer. One sunny day, Pat waved me over. "Look at these tomatoes," he said, smiling. We chatted about gardening, and he offered me some freshly picked ones. As we stood there, laughing and sharing, I knew the kitten had mended the rift between us. Our once-tense relationship had blossomed into a warm friendship.
【知识点】文字式记叙文；开放性作文；读后续写；故事阅读类
【解析】【分析】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读文章可知，本文讲述了作者搬来后与邻居Pat关系不睦，经历围栏和狗粪便冲突后，作者想改善关系时出现一只小猫，为故事发展带来转机。段落续写：①由第一段首句内容"就在这时，前门传来一阵敲门声。"可知，第一段可描写Pat尴尬的神态动作，作者带他找到小猫后，抓住时机向他道歉，Pat有所回应。②由第二段首句内容"从那以后，这只小猫成了常客"可知，第二段可描写小猫频繁往来促进作者和Pat关系改善，通过Pat 与作者交流园艺、分享番茄，展现两人关系从紧张变为友好。写作时注意准确运用时态，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系，尽量使用自己熟悉的单词句式，同时也要注意使用高级词汇和高级句型使文章显得更有档次。【点评】该续写部分与前文紧密相连，过渡自然流畅。前文提到"我"因与邻居 Pat 关系紧张而苦恼，此时小猫的出现成为转机。当听到敲门声，发现是 Pat 因女儿担心小猫而来，这一情节顺理成章，既符合生活逻辑，又巧妙地为两人化解矛盾提供了契机。从 Pat 前来找小猫，到"我"借机道歉，再到小猫成为常客后两人关系逐渐缓和，最后发展成温暖的友谊，整个情节发展层层递进，符合故事发展的内在逻辑，没有突兀之感。文中有一些好的词句，例如： The kitten purred happily as Pat picked it up. 运用了as引导时间状语从句； As we stood there, laughing and sharing, I knew the kitten had mended the rift between us. 运用了as引导的时间状语从句和省略that引导的宾语从句。
