Last winter, 15-year-old Zhao Lin from Chengdu joined a special “future city” design camp. It was not about drawing, but about 11 — solving real city problems using technology.
Zhao Lin’s team was asked to design a smart device to help students who feel 12 at school. “My best friend moved to another city last year. He told me he felt very lonely,” Zhao Lin said. “That gave me the 13.”
They decided to make a “friendship bracelet”. It can 14 a gentle light when the wearer feels down, and send a message to a school helper. “We used a small chip and a sensor,” Zhao Lin explained. “It was challenging, 15 we kept trying.”
Their teacher, Mr. Wang, was amazed. “These students showed real empathy (同理心) and teamwork,” he said. “They learned that 16 is not just about memorizing facts, but about 17 real-life emotional needs.”
At the end of the camp, their work won the “Best Heart Award”. “I felt so proud,” Zhao Lin said. “Now I want to study psychology and technology to 18 more teenagers.”
His teammate, Chen Yu, added, “We also learned that 19 is part of the process. Our first bracelet didn’t connect to the phone at all. But we kept improving it. That’s the real 20 of creation.”
The camp was organized by a local science museum. “We want young people to see that technology is 21 and kind,” said the director. “You don’t need to wait until you grow up to 22 a difference.”
Now Zhao Lin is testing a new version of the bracelet. He hopes to 23 it so more schools can use it. “My parents are very 24 of me,” he smiled. “That’s the best 25 I’ve ever received.”

三、阅读理解（本题共20小题；每小题2分，满分40分）
第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Have you ever heard of “microplastics” They are very tiny pieces of plastic, smaller than a grain of rice. They come from bigger plastic items like bags, bottles, and even clothes. When plastic breaks down in the environment, it becomes microplastics.
Scientists have found microplastics almost everywhere: in the ocean, in the soil, in the air, and even in drinking water. Recently, researchers in China found microplastics in rainwater and snow on high mountains. This means plastic pollution has reached even the most remote places.
Why are microplastics dangerous First, fish and other animals eat them by mistake. Then, when humans eat seafood, microplastics can enter our bodies. Second, microplastics can carry harmful chemicals. These chemicals may cause health problems over time.
What can we do Experts say we should use less plastic in daily life. For example, bring your own bag when shopping, use a metal water bottle, and avoid clothes made of synthetic materials like polyester. Also, washing machines can release microplastic fibers from clothes. Special washing bags can catch some of them.
“Every small action matters,” says environmental scientist Dr. Lin. “If 1 billion people use one less plastic bag a week, that’s 52 billion fewer bags a year.”
26. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Plastic bottles are the biggest pollution problem.
B. Microplastics are everywhere and harmful.
C. Fish are dying because of plastic.
D. Microplastics only exist in the ocean.
27. According to the passage, where have scientists found microplastics
A. Only in the ocean.
B. Only in cities.
C. In rainwater and snow on high mountains.
D. Only in drinking water.
28. How do microplastics enter human bodies
A. Through breathing polluted air.
B. Through eating seafood.
C. Through drinking tap water only.
D. Through touching plastic bags.
29. Which of the following is suggested to reduce microplastic pollution
A. Use more plastic bags.
B. Wash clothes more often.
C. Bring your own bag when shopping.
D. Buy more synthetic clothes.
B
When 14-year-old Liu Yang from Shenzhen feels nervous before an exam, he doesn’t bite his nails. Instead, he puts on a small ring. This is not a common ring. It’s a “mood ring” that can sense his heart rate and skin temperature. When it detects stress, it vibrates (震动) gently. “It reminds me to take three deep breaths,” Liu Yang says. “It really helps me calm down.”
Liu Yang is one of many Chinese teenagers using wearable devices to manage emotions. This is part of a growing trend called “digital emotional support”. These devices don’t solve problems for you, but they help you notice your feelings earlier.
Psychologist Dr. Zhao says, “Many teenagers don’t realize they are stressed until they feel terrible. Wearable devices give them a signal early. It’s like a gentle friend tapping your shoulder.”
Some schools have started pilot programs. At Hangzhou No. 2 Middle School, students can borrow these mood rings during exam weeks. “I used to get so nervous that I couldn’t think,” says student Fang Mei. “Now the ring helps me breathe and focus.”
Liu Yang agrees. “My ring is not a magic fix. But it teaches me to listen to my body. That’s a skill for life.”
30. Why does Liu Yang wear a mood ring
A. To tell the time.
B. To show his fashion style.
C. To get help when he feels stressed.
D. To play games.
31. What does Dr. Zhao say about wearable devices
A. They can solve all emotional problems.
B. They give an early warning for stress.
C. They are only for adults.
D. They make stress worse.
32. What can we infer from the passage
A. Mood rings are very expensive.
B. Teenagers don’t like using technology.
C. The rings help students become more self-aware.
D. Only students with bad grades need mood rings.
C
① Imagine a city where instead of throwing away old smartphones, you take them to a “material library”. There, workers take out the valuable metals and plastic and use them to build new products. This is not science fiction. It’s called “urban mining” (城市采矿).
② Urban mining means collecting useful materials from waste products in cities. For example, old phones contain gold, silver, and copper. Old computers have aluminum and rare metals. These materials are often more concentrated than in natural mines.
③ Why is urban mining becoming so important First, natural resources are running out. Mining new metals damages mountains and forests. Second, e-waste (electronic waste) is growing fast. In 2025, the world produced over 60 million tons of e-waste. Only 20% was recycled properly. Third, urban mining uses much less energy than digging new mines.
④ Many young people are excited about urban mining. “It’s like a treasure hunt,” says 16-year-old Wu Di. He collects old chargers and batteries from his neighbors. “I learned that one old phone battery has enough lithium for half a new battery.”
⑤ Some companies are now building urban mining factories. They use robots to take apart old electronics. “This is the future,” says engineer Ms. Sun. “We don’t need to destroy nature. Our cities are the new mines.”
33. What is the main difference between urban mining and traditional mining
A. Urban mining is more expensive.
B. Urban mining collects materials from waste in cities.
C. Traditional mining uses robots.
D. Urban mining produces more waste.
34. According to the passage, what is a benefit of urban mining
A. It destroys more forests.
B. It uses more energy.
C. It reduces e-waste and saves energy.
D. It only works for plastic.
35. Why does Wu Di like urban mining
A. Because he wants to sell the materials for money.
B. Because he thinks it’s like a treasure hunt.
C. Because his teacher forces him to do it.
D. Because he wants to become a miner.
36. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage
A. ①--②③--④⑤ B. ①--②③④--⑤ C. ①②--③④--⑤ D. ①②③--④--⑤
D
Have you ever heard of “digital minimalism” (数字极简主义) In a world where we spend hours on social media, watching short videos, and checking messages, digital minimalism asks you to do the opposite: use technology on purpose, not by habit.
Digital minimalism is not about giving up your phone. It’s about deciding what technology is truly useful and cutting out the rest. For example, you might keep a map app but delete games that waste time. You might check messages twice a day instead of every five minutes.
Why is digital minimalism good for you First, it improves mental health. Studies show that too much social media makes teenagers feel anxious and unhappy. Second, it frees up time. The average teenager spends over 7 hours a day on screens. Imagine what you could do with that time — read, exercise, or talk to family. Third, it helps you focus. Without constant notifications (通知), you can finish homework faster.
Some teenagers are trying “phone-free Sundays”. “At first, I felt lost without my phone,” says 15-year-old Zhou Mei. “But now I love it. I read two books last month!”
Experts say you don’t have to change everything at once. Start with one small rule: no phone during meals, or turn off notifications for one hour after school. “The goal is not perfection,” says Dr. Wang. “It’s to make technology your tool, not your master.”
37. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To teach how to use more apps.
B. To explain the benefits of digital minimalism.
C. To compare different phones.
D. To describe the history of the internet.
38. According to the passage, what does digital minimalism help improve
A. Time on social media.
B. Mental health and focus.
C. Phone battery life.
D. Number of notifications.
39. How did Zhou Mei feel about phone-free Sundays at first
A. She loved them immediately.
B. She found them difficult.
C. She thought they were useless.
D. She thought they were boring.
40. Which of the following is an example of digital minimalism
A. Checking social media every 10 minutes.
B. Keeping a map app but deleting games.
C. Watching short videos for 3 hours.
D. Using four different messaging apps.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出五个可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Do you know what “carbon footprint” means It is the total amount of carbon dioxide (CO ) that your activities produce. 41 That means more CO in the air, which causes climate change.
Why does this matter Because too much CO warms the planet, leading to floods, heatwaves, and rising sea levels. 42
So what can we do One simple way is to eat more plant-based meals. Producing vegetables creates far less CO than producing meat. 43
Another way is to walk, bike, or take public transport instead of going by car. 44
Schools are also taking action. Some have started “low-carbon lunch” programs. They use local vegetables and reusable plates. 45 Students learn to calculate their carbon footprint.
You don’t have to be perfect. Just try one small change this week. Every little bit helps the planet.
A. A single car trip can produce several kilograms of CO .
B. This also supports local farmers and reduces food miles.
C. The bigger your footprint, the worse for the environment.
D. Eating more fruit is always healthy.
E. It also teaches students about climate change.
F. Everyone should stop using electricity.

Do you know that people in Sweden have a special word called “plogging” It is a combination of “jogging” and “plocka upp” (which means “pick up”). 56 (actual), it means jogging while picking up trash.
Plogging started in Sweden around 2016 and has now spread to many 57 (country), including China. Scientists have studied plogging. They found that it is good for both your body 58 the environment. One reason is that bending down to pick up trash adds more movement to running, so you burn more calories.
Plogging is easy to do. First, find a pair of gloves and a trash bag. 59 (put) them in your backpack. Then, go for a jog as usual. When you see a piece of plastic, a bottle, 60 a can, stop, bend down, and pick 61 up. You are not just running — you are cleaning your neighborhood.
It is important to be safe. Do not pick up 62 (break) glass or anything dangerous. If your mind 63 (wander) to other things, just focus on the next piece of trash.
You don’t need a special park. Your own street works 64 (good) too. Just 15 minutes of plogging can make a big difference. Why not give 65 (it) a try In our busy world, sometimes the best exercise is the one that helps others too.

阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题。（每题答案不超过6个词）
Have you ever felt that you really want to help others but don’t know how That feeling has a name: “helper’s high”. Scientists say it is real and it happens in your brain.
Researchers from Oxford University studied this. They asked people to do small kind acts, like holding a door or giving a compliment (赞美). Then they measured their brain activity. They found that when people help others, the same part of the brain lights up as when they eat chocolate or receive a gift.
So why does this happen Scientists think helping others releases a chemical called oxytocin (催产素) in the brain. This chemical makes you feel warm, calm, and happy. That’s why it’s called “helper’s high”.
So next time you feel down, try doing something kind for someone else. It might just make you feel better too.
66. What is the happy feeling from helping others called

七、书面表达
Dear Tom,
Everything goes well here. I’m glad to share a simple habit that helps me control screen time: turning off all unnecessary notifications.
In my daily life, I only keep notifications for messages from family and close friends. I turn off those from games, shopping apps, and news. This small change stops me from picking up my phone every few minutes. I can focus better on homework and reading.
Why is it helpful Because notifications are designed to catch your attention. Without them, you decide when to use your phone, not the other way around. I really enjoy this feeling of being in control.
Hope your speech goes well!
Yours,
Li Hua
