B(2025·浙江1月卷)
A novel design approach to gardening has been gaining in popularity worldwide.Referred to as matrix planting,this approach aims for nature to do a lot more of the heavy lifting in the garden,and even some of the designing.Eschewing fertilizers(化肥)and power tools,it’s based on an elegantly simple principle:to garden more like nature does.
The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World WarⅡ in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance.Planners created planting mixes that could be used modularly(模块化).In a matrix garden,plants with similar cultural needs are grouped so that they will grow together above and below ground,forming a cooperative ecosystem that conserves water and discourages weeds.
Dutch plantsman and designer Piet Oudolf’s gardens popularised this style,adding artistic flavours to the planting mixes while playing with colour and form,including four-season interest and serving the needs of wildlife.Beautiful year-round,they invite you to enjoy the smallest detail,from the sound of grasses in the gentle wind to the sculpture of odd-looking seed heads.
It takes a lot of thought to look this natural.While matrix gardens appear wild,they are carefully planned,with cultural needs the first consideration.Led by the concept of “right plant,right place”,they match plants that enjoy the same soil,sun and weather conditions,and arrange them according to their patterns of growth.
The benefits are substantial for both gardener and planet.With human inputs dramatically reduced,the garden’s ecology can develop well.Established matrix gardens should not need the life support we give most gardens:fertilizer,dividing,regular pared to traditional garden plots,they increase carbon absorption,reduce stormwater runoff and boost habitat and biodiversity significantly.
4.What does the underlined word “Eschewing” in the first paragraph mean
A.Running out of.
B.Keeping away from.
C.Putting up with.
D.Taking advantage of.
5.Why was the idea of matrix planting introduced
A.To control weeds in large gardens.
B.To bring in foreign species of plants.
C.To conserve soil and water resources.
D.To develop low-maintenance parkland.
6.Which of the following best describes Piet Oudolf’s gardens
A.Traditional. B.Odd-looking.
C.Tasteful. D.Well-protected.
7.Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text
A.The future of gardening is WILD
B.Nature treats all lives as EQUALS
C.Matrix gardens need more CARE
D.Old garden plots work WONDERS

Xena Biffert,a district science consultant,started to do a lot of backward planning when taking students outside to meet curricular(课程的) outcomes.This approach allows curriculum connection and encourages students’ focus and interest to lead the way.Here are four tips for practising backward planning with your students.　8　
Know your curriculum.
Many topics arise organically,and you can cover them through mini-lessons along the way.One way to deepen that knowledge is to print it out and make a habit of reviewing it daily.　9　 First,you develop a familiarity with it.Second,you can see where you can make that connection naturally where the students’ interests meet.
Begin the year with a learning plan and a mind map.
Having guiding questions has helped Xena form and follow a plan for the year.　10　 For example,“How are we all interconnected ” and “What is our story ” She can assess outcomes using this plan throughout the school year.
Get students outside regularly.
　11　 This culture creates an opportunity to form and answer questions about what happens outdoors and how it connects to other topics.As the emergent learning arises and there is daily reflection on it,knowledge and understanding emerge.Through this intentional work and reflection,teachers will be well equipped to answer questions in the process.
　12　
It is important for students to reflect on their observations.We often don’t get time to reflect in our fast-paced classrooms.Often,reflection is combined with assessment.An easy starting point is journaling,because it is a thought process accessible to students in every grade.
A.Outside learning builds a culture.
B.Work out a plan for regular journaling.
C.Make time for student reflection like journaling.
D.Such guiding questions often arise in the backward planning.
E.These may allow you greater flexibility to do outdoor learning.
F.Her reasoning for looking at the curriculum every day is twofold.
G.Xena creates a mind map using the big idea behind the questions.

参考答案
Ⅰ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了Grow Dat青年农场的四种不同主题的参观活动及相关注意事项。
1.C　细节理解题。根据School Field Trip部分中的“Make and eat a simple snack(depending on seasonal produce availability)”可知,参与者在“学校实地考察”中可能品尝到蔬菜和水果,故选C项。
2.A　细节理解题。根据Learning Tour部分中的“You will learn about our sustainable farming practices”和Agricultural Task部分中的“This option includes the same tour described in Learning Tour along with 45 minutes of agricultural work on our sustainable urban farm.”可知,游客在“学习之旅”和“农业任务”中能学习环保的农业技术,故选A项。
3.D　细节理解题。根据Additional info for visitors部分中的“Water is required for all trips.”可知,游客需要自行带水,故选D项。
【语境猜词】
①经验的　②放大的　③可持续的　④堆肥的
【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了矩阵式种植这一新型园艺设计方法的理念、起源、发展、原则及其带来的诸多益处。
4.B　词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“it’s based on an elegantly simple principle:to garden more like nature does”可知,矩阵式种植的原则是以更贴近自然的方式进行园艺活动。由于化肥和电动工具是人为干预园艺的常见手段,而自然的园艺方式则倾向于尽量减少人为干预,由此可推断出Eschewing意为“避开,不使用”,与B项“Keeping away from(远离)”意思相符。
5.D　细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“The concept was born when German city planners sought to plant large areas of parkland after World War Ⅱ in a reproducible way that would need minimal maintenance.”可知,矩阵式种植的概念源于第二次世界大战后,当时德国城市规划者希望以一种可复制且维护成本极低的方式种植大片公园绿地。由此可知,引入矩阵式种植的目的是开发低维护成本的公园绿地。故选D项。
6.C　推理判断题。根据第三段内容可知,Piet Oudolf的花园将艺术气息融入种植组合中,巧妙运用色彩和形态,创造出四季皆美的景观。因此用“Tasteful(有品位的)”来描述Piet Oudolf的花园最为贴切。故选C项。
7.A　标题归纳题。文章介绍了一种新型的园艺设计方法——矩阵式种植,它旨在让大自然在园艺中发挥更大的作用,减少人为干预。整篇文章围绕这一理念展开,强调了让园艺回归自然、更接近“野生”的重要性。因此,A项“The future of gardening is WILD(园艺的未来是‘野生’的)”最适合作为文章标题。
【语境猜词】
①可再生的;可复制的　②维护;保养　③阻拦;阻止　④(雨、水或其他液体的)径流
Ⅱ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了地区科学顾问 Xena Biffert 在带学生到户外实现课程目标时所采用的逆向规划方法,并给出了四个关于如何与学生一起实践逆向规划的建议。
8.E　根据上文“Here are four tips for practising backward planning with your students.”可知,E项“These may allow you greater flexibility to do outdoor learning.” 中的“These”指代的正是“four tips”。
9.F　上文建议要养成每天复习的习惯,下文则讲述了每天复习的原因。F项“Her reasoning for looking at the curriculum every day is twofold.” 符合语境,其中的“twofold”与下文的“First”和“Second”相呼应。
10.G　根据上文“Having guiding questions has helped Xena form and follow a plan for the year.”可知,G项“Xena creates a mind map using the big idea behind the questions.”可承接上文内容。其中的“the questions”指的正是上文中的“guiding questions”。
11.A　根据下文“This culture creates an opportunity to form and answer questions about what happens outdoors and how it connects to other topics.”可知,空处提到了一种文化。A项“Outside learning builds a culture.” 中的“Outside learning”与小标题“Get students outside regularly.”相呼应。其中的“culture”和下文的“This culture”相衔接。
12.C　根据下文“It is important for students to reflect on their observations. ...An easy starting point is journaling...”可知,本段主要讲述的是让学生有时间反思,如写日记。C项“Make time for student reflection like journaling.”可作本段的小标题。
【语境猜词】
①逆向的　②自然出现的　③反思;思考
Ⅲ.【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了青藏高原湖泊持续扩张的科学观测与预测。受气候变化等影响,青藏高原湖泊面积30年间扩增超1万平方千米,科学家预测21世纪末可能再增两万平方千米,这一现象与全球趋势相反,同时也对区域生态构成挑战。
13.which　考查定语从句。此处是非限制性定语从句,先行词是research,指物,从句中缺主语,故填which。
14.offers　考查时态和主谓一致。根据上文的documents可知,句子是一般现在时,主语Their latest research是第三人称单数形式,故填offers。
15.additional　考查形容词。所填词作定语修饰名词词组“20,000 square kilometers”,所以用形容词形式,故填additional。
16.is based　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。根据语境可知,此处描述的是一般性事实,用一般现在时,动词base和句子主语是动宾关系,所以用一般现在时的被动语态,且句子主语是第三人称单数形式,故填is based。
17.highest　考查最高级。根据前面的the和后面的并列成分“most extensive”可知,该词要用最高级形式,故填highest。
18.accounting　考查非谓语动词。account和句子主语The plateau之间是逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用动词-ing形式作伴随状语,故填accounting。
19.activities　考查名词的数。activity是可数名词,前面没有表示单数的修饰语,故填activities。
20.an　考查冠词。此处泛指一种现象,opposite是以元音音素开头的单词,故填an。
21.caused　考查非谓语动词。cause和a rapid expansion之间是逻辑上的动宾关系,所以用过去分词形式作定语,故填caused。
22.and　考查连词。grasslands,wetlands和the overall biodiversity of the region之间是并列关系,故填and。
【语境猜词】
①记录　②预测　③极重要的;关键的　④草原
