[典例1] (2025·全国二卷阅读C)When Sonja Detrinidad opened her online shop selling houseplants, she didn't have high hopes for it. But the opposite happened: She was flooded, shipping out 1,200 orders in June of 2020 alone. In the past year, Detrinidad sent out more than 70,000 plants. Her success is just one example of increased time at home leading to an explosion in the houseplant industry.
“Plants are in fashion right now,” says Dr. Melinda Knuth, a researcher from the University of Florida. “People who live in plant-rich environments report a higher life satisfaction rating,” she says. “Adding more nature to our environment can change our mood and how we think.” Plants can improve our state of mind in a few ways but the biggest is by decreasing our level of cortisol, the stress hormone (激素) in our body.
“Students who are around plants perform better academically than students who are in a classroom without plants,” says Knuth. “This productivity also translates into the workplace for adults. Our study showed that there was a 30% decrease in sick leave for people who were in plant-rich workplaces.”
If you're among the groups of people who are enjoying the mental and physical health benefits of surrounding yourself with plants, don't beat yourself up if one(or a few!) doesn't make it. “Doctors practice medicine and lawyers practice law and you should allow yourself the practice it takes to sustain a plant. Tending to plants is an exercise in patience and learning. Be invested in taking care of it, but if it dies, go get another one,” Detrinidad says.

[典例2] (2024·新课标Ⅱ卷阅读C)We all know fresh is best when it comes to food.However,most produce at the store went through weeks of travel and covered hundreds of miles before reaching the table.While farmer's markets are a solid choice to reduce the journey,Babylon Micro-Farm (BMF) shortens it even more.
BMF is an indoor garden system.It can be set up for a family.Additionally,it could serve a larger audience such as a hospital,restaurant or school.The innovative design requires little effort to achieve a reliable weekly supply of fresh greens.
Specifically,it's a farm that relies on new technology.By connecting through the Cloud,BMF is remotely monitored.Also,there is a convenient app that provides growing data in real time.Because the system is automated,it significantly reduces the amount of water needed to grow plants.Rather than watering rows of soil,the system provides just the right amount to each plant.After harvest,users simply replace the plants with a new pre-seeded pod (容器) to get the next growth cycle started.
Moreover,having a system in the same building where it's eaten means zero emissions (排放) from transporting plants from soil to salad.In addition,there's no need for pesticides and other chemicals that pollute traditional farms and the surrounding environment.
BMF employees live out sustainability in their everyday lives.About half of them walk or bike to work. Inside the office,they encourage recycling and waste reduction by limiting garbage cans and avoiding single-use plastic.“We are passionate about reducing waste,carbon and chemicals in our environment,” said a BMF employee.

[典例3] (2025·全国二卷阅读D)(Para.5) It should be noted that none of the items on wastED's menu was technically made from garbage. Instead, all the ingredients (配料) used were examples of meat cuts and produce that most restaurants would never consider serving. Things like kale ribs, fish collars, rejected sweet potatoes, and cucumber butts were all re-appropriated and, with the help of a number of good chefs, turned into excellent cuisine.
(Para.6)Though wastED received enthusiastic reviews, it was designed from the start as a short-lived experiment; Blue Hill has since returned to its regular menu. Nevertheless, it serves as a reminder that there are many ways to address problems of sustainability, and that you can make an amazing meal out of almost anything.

I was 17 years old. Along with a dozen other boys I had made a long trip to Iowa in order to see a college that I was thinking of attending. While the trip had been fun for the most part, now that I was there I was feeling depressed and alone. I was missing my family and was realizing that I wouldn't be seeing them very much if I went to school here. I was also missing the mountains, forests, and wild flowers in my hometown. These things were a part of me.

训练
Here in Iowa everything was flat. The grass looked burnt and brown. All that I could smell was a mixture of corn, mud, and pigs. I walked outside the dormitory of the college and sat on the grass. I closed my eyes and dreamed of being back home again.
When I finally opened them, however, I saw something that touched my soul. It was a prairie (草原) sunset. It seemed to fill the sky from horizon to horizon. Gold, red, purple and pink clouds all flowed together in a picture painted by Heaven's own hand. It was so huge that it took my breath away. It made our mountain sunsets seem tiny.
I was filled with wonder and felt a special oneness. I realized that I had been foolish and judgmental. This place also had its own special beauty. This place also was a part of magic nature.
Over the years to come I learned something else. Each of us has a special beauty as well. Each of us has our own unique talents and abilities. Each of us has a beautiful, powerful love that only we can share. May you always do so then. May your life always shine bright. And may your love shine from your soul like a sunset on the prairie.

(2025·衡水中学模拟)“Can you finish the work by the end of the day?” This question might cause anxiety for many employees. However, recent research indicates that shorter deadlines can actually help some individuals to complete tasks more efficiently and perceive their workload as less frightening.
In a study focused on retirement planning, volunteers completed a brief online survey under two different deadline conditions. One group had seven days to finish the survey, while the other was given 14 days. The researchers discovered that those facing the longer deadline often viewed the task as more difficult. Although participants with the extended deadline initially invested more time and resources, they were also more likely to procrastinate and less likely to complete the assignment compared to those with shorter deadlines.
Recognizing that people frequently deal with multiple deadlines, researchers explored how individuals manage various tasks at the same time. The findings found a mental tendency: individuals often delay important tasks in favor of urgent but less significant ones. For example, many delay routine medical check-ups crucial for health in favor of rushing to a store for a limited-time sale. This occurs because important tasks feel more complex and distant, while urgent tasks provide immediate satisfaction.
These patterns have significant results for managers and others involved in setting deadlines, Understanding these mental processes can help find strategies to enhance task completion rates. Short deadlines for urgent tasks tend to draw attention more effectively, leading to higher completion rates and reduced procrastination. On the other hand, longer deadlines can lead to excessive careful thought or distraction, resulting in incomplete work.
However, it's essential to recognize that longer deadlines may still be necessary for complex tasks particularly when external factors, such as resource availability or cooperation, require additional time for proper completion. In such cases, a balanced approach is crucial: setting realistic deadlines that account for both urgency and complexity can lead to improved outcomes. By recognizing the minor differences of human motivation, individuals and organizations can develop effective strategies for task management.
语境猜词:
①employee(派生)=employ+后缀-ee ________________
②retirement(派生)=retire+后缀-ment ________________
③complexity (派生)=complex+后缀-ity ________________
④realistic(派生)=real+后缀-istic ________________

5.What does the underlined word “procrastinate” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Finish quickly.   B.Put off.
C.Start early. D.Do carefully.
解析:B 词义猜测题。根据第二段“Although participants with the extended deadline initially invested more time and resources”及“less likely to complete the assignment compared to those with shorter deadlines”可知,此处通过Although引导让步关系,表明主从句的转折意义,即延长截止日期会使参与者投入更多时间和资源,但可能会造成任务时间过长。由此推断画线单词的含义是“拖延,延期”。故选B。
6.Why do people tend to delay important tasks for urgent ones
A.Urgent tasks offer instant rewards.    
B.Urgent tasks are more complicated.
C.Important tasks are less challenging.
D.Important tasks need multi-tasking.
解析:A 推理判断题。根据第三段“This occurs because important tasks feel more complex and distant, while urgent tasks provide immediate satisfaction.”可知,人们倾向于把重要的任务推迟到紧急的任务之后是因为紧急任务提供即时奖励。故选A。
7.How should managers set proper deadlines to improve outcomes
A.Set all tasks with shorter deadlines.    
B.Prioritize resources and cooperation.
C.Balance task urgency and complexity.
D.Extend deadlines for significant tasks.
解析:C 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In such cases, a balanced approach is crucial: setting realistic deadlines that account for both urgency and complexity can lead to improved outcomes.”可知,管理者应该平衡任务的紧迫性和复杂性以设定合理的截止日期以提高效果。故选C。

By the middle of the last decade, I had been studying Indian Butterflies for over 20 years. However, I had never observed butterflies at high altitudes in the trans-Himalayan habitat. So, in 2015, I decided to visit Ladakh to search for butterflies.
限时规范
训练7-9
My first “butterflying” visit to Ladakh was in June 2016, then in July of the same year, followed by another visit in August 2018. For these visits, I charted out a two-week schedule on each occasion. I covered some of the well-known locations.
Each habitat we explored had its unique mix of butterfly species. By trickling streams and wet areas, we found Small and Dusky Green Underwings, along with numerous Meadowblues, all part of the Blues family. In alpine meadows, countless white and yellow butterflies from the Yellows and Whites family fluttered (翩翩飞舞) about. More than once, I'd spot a white or yellow butterfly flying across the meadow, and chase after it, only to find myself out of breath in Ladakh's thin air while the butterfly gracefully flew away. Once, I chased a Butler's Dwarf butterfly for 15 minutes, managing only a few photos before it disappeared. Another time, I spotted dozens of Clouded Yellow butterflies in an alpine meadow. I spent half an hour chasing them, only for them to fly away each time.
Over the course of multiple visits to Ladakh for butterfly observation, I've had the remarkable opportunity to photograph more than 40 “lifers”—species I encountered for the very first time. These discoveries have added valuable knowledge to the field and led to the publication of two research papers in the Journal of Threatened Taxa.
In addition to this,I partnered with the Snow Leopard Conservancy to create a small booklet showcasing 50 butterfly species found in Ladakh, with the goal of raising awareness and promoting butterfly watching as a unique and sustainable activity. This initiative aims to inspire both locals and tourists to explore the rich biodiversity of the region, while fostering a greater appreciation for Ladakh's delicate ecosystems.

According to a new study, climate change will change and reduce the land suitable for growing food and wood, putting the production of these two important resources into direct competition.
The sight of vineyards (葡萄园) in Britain is becoming more common as hotter summers create increasingly suitable conditions for growing grapes. But behind this success story is an acute one: climate change is moving the regions of the world suitable for growing crops.
Researchers at the University of Cambridge have uncovered a looming (迫在眉睫的) issue: As the land suitable for producing our food moves northwards, it will put pressure on the land we need to grow trees. The wood these trees produce is the basis of much of modern life—from paper and cardboard to furniture and buildings.
They say that the increasing competition between land for wood production and food production due to climate change has, until now, been ignored, but is set to be an emerging issue as our demand for both continues to increase.
Under the worst-case scenario (可能的情况) for climate change, where no action is taken to reduce carbon emissions in society, the study found that over a quarter of existing forestry land will become more suitable for farming by the end of the century.
“There's only a limited area of suitable land on the planet where we can produce food and wood—two critical resources for society. As climate change worsens and farming is forced to expand northwards, there's going to be increasing pressure on wood production,” said a researcher in the University of Cambridge's Department of Plant Sciences.
“We've got to be thinking fifty years ahead because if we want wood in the future, we need to be planting it now. The trees that will be cut down by the end of this century are already in the ground—they're on much slower cycles than food crops,” the researcher added.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了气候变化对农业和林业用地的影响。

When Alexander Fleming returned to his lab in 1928,he found a bacteria culture he had grown was infected by fungus (霉菌), killing any colonies it touched. Rather than simply starting over, Fleming switched his focus to the fungus. He identified the bacteria-killing substance, which he called “penicillin”, and seemingly in a single stroke, created the new field of antibiotics (抗生素).
That's how most people see innovation: A flash of brilliance and Eureka, a new world is born. The truth, however, is messier. It wasn't until 1943 that penicillin came into widespread use.
To put Fleming's discovery in context, consider Ignaz Semmelweis, who pioneered hand washing in maternity wards (产房), significantly reducing childbed fever but receiving scorn instead of fame. That was because in the 1850s, his ideas conflicted with the popular miasma theory, which attributed disease to “bad airs”. After his death in 1865, germ theory was accepted, paving the way for Fleming's later work.
Fleming was a gifted biologist but a poor communicator. When he published his results in 1929, few took notice. In 1935, Howard Florey and Ernst Chain discovered Fleming's paper, understood its importance, and developed methods to produce penicillin in quantity. By 1943,with World War Ⅱ raging, the War Production Board enlisted 21 companies to mass-produce penicillin, saving countless lives and ushering_in the new age of antibiotics. Fleming, Florey and Chain received the Nobel Prize in Medicine in 1945.
Penicillin owes much of its success to government support. For many other groundbreaking innovations like the Internet and GPS, their innovators, while carving their own path, are often uncertain of where the opportunity lies until they team up with other visionaries and corporations, who might have the resources to fast-track their ideas. So, look at any significant innovation and the myth of the lone genius and the “eureka moment” breaks down.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了青霉素的发现和发展历程,通过这一实例揭示了创新是一个复杂且漫长的过程,并非是人们通常认为的天才的灵光一闪。

A.An account of a lab story.
B.Redefinition of a traditional view.
C.Correction of a popular misconception.
D.An analysis of a scientific phenomenon.
解析:C 段落大意题。第一段讲述弗莱明发现青霉素的过程。根据第二段中“That's how most people see...The truth, however, is messier.”可知,前两段主要是纠正人们对创新的普遍误解,即认为创新是一蹴而就的这种错误观念。故选C。
C
10.What is the message conveyed in paragraph 3?(  )
A.Great minds think alike.
B.The early bird catches the worm.
C.Luck's got your back when it comes to success.
D.Early work is a stepping stone to later breakthroughs.
解析:D 推理判断题。根据文章第三段中“That was because in...way for Fleming's later work.”可推知,早期塞麦尔维斯的工作为后来弗莱明的突破奠定了基础,即早期工作是后来突破的垫脚石。故选D。
D
11.What does the underlined part “ushering in” in the paragraph 4 mean?(  )
A.Delaying. B.Introducing.
C.Predicting. D.Transforming.
解析:B 词义猜测题。根据文章第四段中“By 1943, with World War Ⅱ...saving countless lives ”,可知,大规模生产青霉素,使得抗生素进入了新时代。所以“ushering in” 意思是 “引入,开启”。故选B。
B
12.Which of the following can be the best title?(  )

When Bethany Renfree was 26 years old, she and her three young daughters lived in a low-income apartment building in Jackson, California. Like most of the tenants, Renfree was a single mother. Life was tough.
One cold morning, as Renfree shuffled into the kitchen, she looked at the sink piled high with pots and pans and dishes. “These pots were caked in grease and burnt because I actually didn't really know how to cook very well at that time. So I'd always be burning our pans with eggs or other things,” Renfree said.
Her 18-month-old twins sat in their high chairs,and her youngest was just a month old. When her eyes returned to the sink, a feeling of hopelessness washed over her.
“I just couldn't bring myself to do those dishes. And I couldn't look at them any longer. It was a reminder of how overwhelmed I felt in my own life,” Renfree remembered.
So she grabbed a garbage bag and filled it up with all the dirty dishes. She dragged it outside to the trash, but it was full, so she left it on the very edge of the garbage can. Then she packed up her kids and left for the day.
“When I got back that evening, it was dark,” Renfree said. “But as we were coming in, I kind of kicked something. It was a box.”
Renfree brought the box inside and set it on the table. She had no idea what was inside. “It was my pots, pans and dishes. They were all clean, shining and sparkling,” Renfree remembered. “And a little note popped out, a handwritten note on a yellow piece of paper: ‘I've been there before, you will make it, I promise you.’”
To this day, Renfree doesn't know which of her neighbors washed and returned her dishes. She assumes it was one of the other single mums in the building. “I am so grateful to have learned that we are surrounded by kindness and understanding even in our hardest moments. ”

Perfectionism is always encouraged in our society. In one study, researchers found that over the time period studied, college students reported increasing levels of perfectionism: they held themselves to higher standards, felt there were higher expectations placed on them, and held others to higher standards.
Importantly, what increased the most were the social expectations that young adults picked up on from the surrounding environment. The researchers believe that this could be because society is increasingly competitive: college students might pick up on these pressures from their parents and from society, which would increase perfectionist tendencies.
Since perfectionism is associated with negative outcomes, what can someone with perfectionist tendencies do to change their behavior
One possible alternative to perfectionism involves developing what psychologists call a growth mindset. Researchers at Stanford University have found that cultivating a growth mindset is a crucial way to help us learn from our failures. Unlike those with fixed mindsets (who see their skill levels as unchangeable), those with growth mindsets believe they can improve their abilities by learning from their mistakes. Psychologists point out that parents can play a crucial role in helping their children develop healthier attitudes towards failure: they can praise their children for making an effort and help children learn to persevere when they make mistakes.
Another potential alternative to perfectionism is to develop self-compassion. To understand self-compassion, think about how you would respond to a close friend if they made a mistake. Chances are, you'd probably respond with kindness and understanding, knowing that your friend meant well. The idea behind self-compassion is that we should treat ourselves kindly when we make mistakes, remind ourselves that mistakes are part of being human, and avoid being consumed by negative emotions.
Although people are sometimes hesitant to give up their perfectionist tendencies, psychologists point out that giving up on perfection doesn't mean being less successful. In fact, because mistakes are an important part of learning and growing, embracing imperfection can actually help us in the long run.

In 1984, the World Chess Championship was called off suddenly, due to the worryingly thin body of Anatoly Karpov, a top Russian player who was competing for the title. Over the past five months and dozens of matches, Karpov had lost 22 lbs. (10 kilograms)!
Karpov's wasn't alone in experiencing the extreme physical effects of the game. Actually, many chess players are under intense pressure that causes stress, which can lead to an elevated heart rate, faster breathing and sweating. While no chess competitor has experienced such profound weight loss since then, excellent players can reportedly burn up to about 6,000 calories in one day—all without moving from their seats, ESPN reported.
Is the brain responsible for this use of energy And does that mean that thinking harder is a simple route to losing weight To answer that question, we first need to understand how much energy is used up by a regular brain.
When the body is at rest—not engaged in any activity besides the basics of breathing, digesting and keeping itself warm—we know that the brain uses up a startling 20% to 25% of the body's overall energy.
That translates to 350 or 450 calories per day for the average woman or man, respectively. During childhood, the brain is even more ravenous. “In the average 5-to 6-year-old, the brain can use upwards of 60% of the body's energy,” said Doug Boyer, an associate professor from Duke University.
The brain is the most energy-expensive organ in the body, and yet it makes up only 2% of the body's weight, overall. Boyer believes the reason is that despite brains being lightweight, human brains are large relative to the rest of the body.
In addition, the brain never really rests, he explained; when we sleep, it still requires fuel to keep firing off signals between cells to maintain our body's functions.

(2025·河南省五市联考)
My father's thrift (节俭) philosophy shaped my youth. Unlike peers receiving pocket money, I never got a penny—not from cruelty, but to build self-reliance. Each morning, he'd note, “Mrs. Wilson needs her garden weeded; Mr. Carter requires help sorting bottles.” I earned coins through seasonal work in the neighborhood: sweeping leaves, shoveling snow and babysitting.
Savings filled the tin under my bed, its weight showing my growing pride. Though he occasionally borrowed for emergencies (a flat tire or a medical bill), repayment was exact and timely. When I lost two months' earnings in a failed lemonade business, his only words were, “Live and learn.” At twelve, I considered this cruel; at thirty, I value its wisdom—true lessons grow through doing.
Modern thrift education focuses on saving, but ignores its key point: earning. Father believed “earned coins teach value; given coins generate greed”—a truth wealthy families overlook while advocating thrift. By delivering papers at dawn and mowing lawns at dusk, I learned that true thrift is a triad (三位一体)—earn through labor, save with intention, spend with care. This trio, unteachable in classrooms, roots in blistered (满是水泡的) hands and difficult situations.
Locally, supermarkets throws outdated bread (still eatable) as shelters beg for donations. Witnessing global contrasts inspires my resolve: 1.3 billion tons of food go bad annually—enough to feed all the hungry—while 800 million starve. This phenomenon fuels my Food Rescue project—redirecting bakery remains to food banks and training youth to reuse deserted furniture for schools. Through such acts, thrift becomes social justice. As Father said, “Earning teaches respect for resources.” In our wasteful era, thrift transforms from personal discipline to collective duty.

Inspired by an event held by the Dallas-based Daddy Stroller (婴儿车) Social Club (DSSC) , a group for fathers, Brandon Shaw wrote an 83-page typed letter to his father. From the Blacklit bookstore, Kalvin Bridgewater led 15 dads, including his own father, who was seated next to Shaw, in an emotional event where the men dug into what they hated, loved, misunderstood and appreciated about their fathers as they grew up.
Founded by Bridgewater in 2021, DSSC initially met with about 30 dads per event but skyrocketed in popularity after two online videos became hits in April 2024. It now attracts over 150 dads at events, where fathers bond over shared experiences and provide emotional backing for one another.
DSSC's appeal is broad, attracting dads from various professions, including doctors, engineers, and electricians. The group emphasizes emotional support, with members regularly checking in on one another. As Shaw shared, the group provides a space where men can be open, asking, “How are you feeling?” Shaw, who joined the group when he first became a father, said it has made him more patient and understanding.
Bridgewater, who became a certified doula (产妇陪护师) to better support his wife through pregnancy (孕期), also ensures DSSC allows partners some time for themselves. At a May event, scheduled just before Mother's Day, mothers had the day off while fathers spent time bonding with their children.
Brandon Shaw described the experience as transformative, saying it helped him connect with his own weaknesses, something he had previously kept hidden. He sent the letter he wrote to his father for Father's Day. It arrives soon. He said he doesn't expect a response and just hopes his father reads it. As Bridgewater puts it, fatherhood is just about “being honest and sharing”.

In today's fast-paced world, the art of mindful living has become increasingly essential. Mindfulness, the practice of being fully present in the moment, offers a pathway to inner peace and clarity among the chaos of modern life. It is not merely a technique but a way of being that transforms our relationship with ourselves and the world around us.
At its core, mindful living involves paying attention to our thoughts, feelings, and sensations without judgment. By observing our experiences with curiosity and openness, we can break free from automatic reactions and cultivate a deeper understanding of ourselves. This awareness allows us to respond to life's challenges with greater wisdom and kindness.
One of the key benefits of mindfulness is its ability to reduce pressure. When we focus on the present moment, we let go of worries about the past or future. Simple practices, such as mindful breathing or mindful walking, can root us in the here and now, creating a sense of calm and stability. Over time, these practices can rewire our brains, making us more resilient (有韧性的) to stress and challenges.
Moreover, mindful living enhances our relationships. By being fully present with others, we listen more deeply and communicate with greater effectiveness. This fosters empathy (共情) and connection, strengthening the bonds we share with family, friends, and colleagues. Mindfulness also encourages gratitude, helping us appreciate the small joys of life that often go unnoticed.
In essence, the art of mindful living is a journey of self-discovery and growth. It invites us to slow down, treasure each moment, and welcome life with a sense of wonder. As we cultivate mindfulness, we not only improve our own well-being but also contribute to a more kind and harmonious world. In a society that often values speed and productivity over presence and reflection, mindful living offers a timeless reminder of what truly matters.
