Iceland: Carbon-Neutral Travel Project
In southern Iceland, a new sustainable travel project called EcoCamp Iceland is gaining
international attention. Designed as a low-impact tourist center, it aims to provide visitors with a true taste of Icelandic nature while causing almost no harm to the environment.
Project Idea
Unlike usual holiday stations, EcoCamp runs completely on renewable energy —
geothermal and hydro power. The goal is not only to offer comfortable trips but also to educate
tourists about climate protection and wildlife protection. It hopes to become an example for other countries looking to develop green tourism.
Facilities & Experiences
Accommodation consists of smart eco-pods made from local and recycled materials. They use solar heating, water-saving systems and produce no extra waste. The on-site restaurant serves only local, organic food, and all leftovers are turned into soil for plants.
Visitors can join guided small-group tours: hiking, glacier watching, and northern lights viewing. To reduce damage, each group has no more than six people. There are also workshops about Iceland’s ecosystem, led by local environmental scientists.
Rules & Social Influence
To keep the area clean and quiet, EcoCamp has strict rules: no single-use plastics, no loud noise, no driving off-road, and a required distance from wild animals. Part of the tour income is donated to local community service and reforestation projects.
Practical Details
Best seasons: Summer (June–August): midnight sun, easy hiking
Winter (December–February): northern lights, ice activities
Group size: maximum 6 people per guide
Age: suitable for 16–65
Booking: advised 3–5 months ahead
Note: basic physical health is needed for outdoor activities
1 .What can we learn about EcoCamp Iceland
A .It makes good use of food waste.
B .It depends on traditional fossil fuels.
C .It offers free organic food to tourists.
D .It provides imported food at low prices.
2 .What can tourists do during the trip
A .Explore off-road areas freely. B .Use plastics for food packing.
C .Learn about the local environment. D .Enjoy outdoor activities on their own.

Florence Brunelle, a 22-year-old short-track speed skater from Quebec, Canada, stepped
onto the Olympic podium in Milan-Cortina 2026 with a silver medal shining in her hand. What
made her victory extraordinary was not just the medal itself, but the journey that led her there — a journey defined by resilience in the face of unimaginable physical challenges.
Born with only two functional fingers on her left hand, Florence faced skepticism from
coaches and competitors alike from a young age. Many believed her disability would prevent her from mastering the precise blade (冰刀) control and balance required for short-track speed skating. Undiscouraged, she refused to let others define her limits. “I never saw my hand as a weakness,”
she recalled. “I saw it as a part of me that made me work harder, smarter.”
Her path was far from smooth. At the 2022 Beijing Olympics, a costly mistake in the
qualifying round led to her being disqualified, crushing her dream of competing in the final. The defeat left her devastated, but she refused to quit. Instead, she returned to the ice with a renewed sense of purpose. She spent countless hours refining her technique, adapting her grip (抓地) to make up for her hand, and building mental toughness through demanding training.
Four years later, her perseverance paid off. As part of Canada’s mixed relay team, Florence skated with precision and courage, helping her team secure the silver medal. When the final
results were announced, she fell to her knees, tears of joy streaming down her face. “This medal isn’t just mine,” she said. “It’s for everyone who’s ever been told they can’t do something.”
Florence’s story has inspired millions worldwide. She has become a symbol of hope,
proving that true strength lies not in perfection, but in the unwavering determination to rise again after every fall. For her, the Olympic medal is more than a prize; it is a testament to the power of resilience and the belief that no obstacle is too great to overcome.

B .She adjusted skills to fit her physical condition.
C .She owed her success mainly to her teammates.
D .She regarded her disability as a serious weakness.

C .hard work matters more than talent D .determination helps overcome obstacles
C
Food forests, also known as forest gardens or edible (可食用的) forests, are appearing in
urban settings across the US as a unique way to help food-insecure communities. They imitate the structure and functioning of natural forest ecosystems that produce various edible plants for the
community, which reduces reliance on external food sources and promotes food self-sufficiency.
Food forests can maximize food production in a given area. In a regular garden, you’re
probably only planting vegetables along the ground. While this can provide a great harvest, it
leaves a lot of space unused. Now imagine you are planting a fruit tree. On the shady side, you add
some shade-tolerant berries, and on the sunny side you add some sun-loving berries. At the base of the sun-loving berries, you plant some annual vegetables and herbs. This food forest would result in a truly splendid harvest that would dwarf what a regular garden the same size could provide.
The genius of a food forest lies in its designed cultivation of beneficial interactions between different plant species. For instance, some plants might enrich the soil by fixing nitrogen, a natural fertilizer for neighboring vegetation, while others naturally attract beneficial insects, providing a
built-in pest control mechanism. These strategic connections lead to reduced dependency on labor inputs and create an environment that is hardy and sustainable.
Food forests require ongoing care and maintenance, which often involves the participation of community members. This cooperative effort develops a sense of shared responsibility and
brings people together to work towards a common munity members can come together to learn about planting techniques, sustainable gardening practices, and the benefits of native
plants. This shared learning experience creates a platform for exchanging ideas and skills, promoting a sense of self-reliance within the community.
8 .What is the main purpose of the first paragraph
A .To describe an idea. B .To present a practice.
C .To offer an argument. D .To put forward advice.
9 .What does the underlined word “dwarf” in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A .Limit. B .Equal. C .Minimize. D .Outweigh.
10 .What is the benefit of constantly maintaining food forests
A .They resist all pests. B .They expand food range.
C .They cut out labor input. D .They boost community bond.
11 .Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A .A Creative Way to Help Food-Insecure Communities
B .Food Forests: Imitating Nature to Benefit Community
C .Food Forests: Maximizing Urban Yields to Feed More
D .A New Concept to Enhance Community Food Security
D
A common cultural concept holds that repetition is a skill widely used in music and a wide
range of other art forms. Language expert Jay Keyser’s research reveals that repetition is not mere copying but a deliberate artistic technique that makes art strike a chord deeply with human brains. He terms this unique skill “same/except” — repeating core elements steadily while introducing
delicate subtle variations, and he finds this artistic rule commonly applied across music, painting, design and other creative fields.
Jazz legend Duke Ellington masterfully employs this artistic rule in his classic work Satin Doll: the basic rhythm repeats consistently throughout the piece, yet melodic notes shift gently
between high and low registers, and the lyrics perfectly mirror this unique rhythmic pattern to
create a harmonious feeling. Similarly, Andy Warhol’s iconic Campbell’s Soup Cans seem
completely identical at first casual glance, but a closer look shows that each can bears tiny but
unique differences in color, text details and printing traces. This perfect balance of familiarity and novelty brings a sense of pleasure in the brain, as humans are born to seek stable patterns and
delight in discovering hidden small connections.
Advertisers, for their own reason, exploit repetition, simply repeating brand names and
classic slogans steadily to build customer trust and deepen memory. Artists, meanwhile,
frequently apply repetition for their part: it creates a sense of comfort while inviting audiences to take closer inspection of variations, turning passive viewing or listening into active and thoughtful engagement. Keyser’s research work perfectly bridges art and neuroscience, showing that great art always agrees with the cognitive (认知的) processing of our minds — longing for stable order,
anticipating familiar patterns, and finding pure joy in subtle but meaningful changes.
Critics once casually dismissed repetitive art as dull and shallow, but Keyser’s findings
redefine it as a complex and thoughtful craft. By studying how different artists use “same/except” across various creative mediums, we gain a brand-new lens to appreciate the universal language of creativity. This inspiring research reminds us that art’s lasting power lies not just in unique
originality, but in how it speaks to the fundamental workings ofthe human brain and touches our inner emotions.
12 .How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1
A .By presenting a popular belief. B .By quoting an artistic comment.
C .By referring to a research subject. D .By describing a typical phenomenon.
13 .What is people’s inner reason for appreciating the “same/except” skill
A .It simplifies cognitive processing.
B .It perfects familiarity and novelty.
C .It secures people against uncertain changes.
D .It meets the need to find hidden association.
14 .Why does the author mention “advertisers” in paragraph 3
A .To contrast with artists’ use of repetition.
B .To show “same/except” in different fields.
C .To indicate the impact of repetition in daily life.
D .To stress the link between repetition and brand loyalty.
15 .In the author’s opinion, the technique of“same/except” in art is .
A .a complex skill to attract viewers B .a reflection of artists’ creative insights
C .a skill consistent with human cognition D .a smart way to replace the original ideas

47 .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。
Like many senior high school students, I used to be totally addicted to takeout food. Buried under mountains of heavy schoolwork every day, I regarded takeout as the most effortless and
time-saving solution for meals. Every noon, I would casually drag an oily takeout box from my schoolbag, gobbling (狼吞虎咽) down my meal at the desk while buried in my textbooks, never sparing a thought for its lack of nutrition. I was firmly convinced that cooking was a troublesome chore that would just waste my precious study time, so I stubbornly refused to step into the
kitchen.
One day, just as I was about to lift open the oily lid of my lunch box, covered in heavy
sauces, my best friend Mia approached. She eyed the heavily seasoned food with a slight frown,
her eyes clouded with genuine concern. She gently tapped my arm and whispered softly, her voice brimming with care, “Eating too much takeout is really bad for your health. You look so worn out and sleepy lately.”
I just gave a faint smile and replied absent-mindedly, “It’s so convenient, so I don’t mind at all.”
Mia shook her head gently, her gaze fixed on me sincerely. “Cooking isn’t difficult or boring at e to my house this weekend. We can cook together. It’ll be fun, warm, and much healthier!” Captivated by her warm and bright smile, I agreed without hesitation.
On Saturday morning, I arrived on time. Her kitchen was bathed in sunlight, bright and
cozy, with fresh vegetables, eggs, and tender meat neatly arranged on the table. She handed me a lovely apron (围裙) and taught me patiently, step by step. I began to wash the vegetables carefully and tried to cut them slowly. My hands were clumsy but my heart filled with excitement. Soon,
sweet smoke curled into the air, and we started cooking together happily.
注意:
1 .续写词数应为 150 字左右。
2 .请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
We were absorbed in cooking, laughing and chatting happily all the time.

这篇文章主要讲述了加拿大短道速滑运动员弗洛伦斯天生左手残疾,2022 北京奥运失利后刻苦训练,最终在 2026 米兰冬奥摘银,她的坚韧与决心激励了全世界无数人。
4.细节理解题。根据第一段中“What made her victory extraordinary was not just the medal itself, but the journey that led her there — a journey defined by resilience in the face of unimaginable
physical challenges.( 她的胜利之所以非凡,并不仅仅是因为那枚奖牌本身,而是她所经历的那段旅程——这段旅程充满了在难以想象的体能挑战面前展现的坚韧精神。)” 以及第二段中“Born with only two functional fingers on her left hand, Florence faced skepticism from coaches
and competitors alike from a young age.(弗洛伦斯出生时左手仅有两个能正常使用的手指,从很小的时候起,她就面临着教练和对手们的质疑。)”可知,弗洛伦斯·布鲁内尔在奥运会上的胜利之所以令人瞩目是因为她在身体残疾的情况下所展现出的坚韧精神。
5 .细节理解题。根据第三段中“Her path was far from smooth. At the 2022 Beijing Olympics, a costly mistake in the qualifying round led to her being disqualified, crushing her dream of
competing in the final.(她的道路并不平坦。在 2022 年北京奥运会上,资格赛中的一次严重失误导致她被取消资格,粉碎了她参加决赛的梦想。)”可知,2022 年北京奥运会上,弗洛伦斯她因严重失误而错过了决赛。
6.细节理解题。根据第三段中“Instead, she returned to the ice with a renewed sense of purpose. She spent countless hours refining her technique, adapting her grip (抓地) to make up for her hand,
and building mental toughness through demanding training.(相反,她带着重新燃起的使命感重新回到了冰场。她花费了无数的时间来磨练自己的技巧,调整抓地的方式以弥补自己的缺陷,并通过高强度的训练来培养内心的坚韧。)”可知,关于弗洛伦斯,我们可以了解到她根据自身身体状况调整了技巧。

8 .B 9 .D 10 .D 11 .B
这篇文章主要介绍了美国城市兴起的食物森林,它模仿自然生态系统,能大幅提高单位面积产量、实现生态可持续,还能凝聚社区,促进粮食自给自足。
8 .推理判断题。根据第一段“Food forests, also known as forest gardens or edible (可食用的) forests, are appearing in urban settings across the US as a unique way to help food-insecure
communities. They imitate the structure and functioning of natural forest ecosystems that produce various edible plants for the community, which reduces reliance on external food sources and
promotes food self-sufficiency.( 食物森林,又称森林果园或可食用森林,正在美国的多个城市出现,成为帮助那些食品供应不足的社区的一种独特方式。它们模仿了自然森林生态系统的特点和运作方式,为社区提供各种可食用植物,从而减少了对外部食物来源的依赖,并促进了食品的自给自足。)”可知,第一段开篇即指出“食物森林正出现在美国各地的城市环境中,作为帮助粮食不安全社区的独特方式” ,随后解释了其定义、运作原理和核心价值。由此可知,这是在向读者介绍一种已经在实施的实际做法。
9 .词句猜测题。根据第二段中“In a regular garden, you’re probably only planting vegetables
along the ground. While this can provide a great harvest, it leaves a lot of space unused. Now
imagine you are planting a fruit tree. On the shady side, you add some shade-tolerant berries, and on the sunny side you add some sun-loving berries. At the base of the sun-loving berries, you
plant some annual vegetables and herbs.( 在常规的花园里,你可能只是沿着地面种植蔬菜。虽
然这能带来不错的收成,但会留下大量未利用的空间。现在想象一下,你正在种植一棵果树。在阴凉的一侧,你添加一些耐阴的浆果,而在阳光充足的一侧,你添加一些喜阳的浆果。在喜阳的浆果的根部,你种植一些一年生的蔬菜和香草。)” 以及划线单词句中“This food forest would result in a truly splendid harvest that would …what a regular garden the same size could
provide.( 这样的食物森林将带来极其丰硕的收成,远远 同样大小的常规花园所能提供的产量。)”可知,第二段核心对比了普通花园和食物森林的产量差异:普通花园只利用地面空间,而食物森林采用多层立体种植(果树→浆果→蔬菜香草),能最大化单位面积产量。
故可猜测 dwarf 在此处为动词,意为“使 相形见绌;远超” ,与 D 选项 outweigh“超过;比 更重要/更多”含义一致。
10.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Food forests require ongoing care and maintenance, which often involves the participation of community members. This cooperative effort develops a sense of
shared responsibility and brings people together to work towards a common munity
members can come together to learn about planting techniques, sustainable gardening practices,
and the benefits of native plants.( 食物森林需要持续的照料和维护,这通常需要社区成员的参与。这种合作努力培养了共同的责任感,并将人们聚集在一起为共同的目标而努力。社区成员可以聚集在一起学习种植技术、可持续的园艺实践以及本土植物的益处。)”可知,持续维护食物森林的核心社会效益是增强社区凝聚力。
11.主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“Food forests, also known as forest gardens or edible (可食用的) forests, are appearing in urban settings across the US as a unique way to help
food-insecure communities. They imitate the structure and functioning of natural forest
ecosystems that produce various edible plants for the community, which reduces reliance on
external food sources and promotes food self-sufficiency.( 食物森林,又称森林果园或可食用森林,正在美国的多个城市出现,成为帮助那些食品供应不足的社区的一种独特方式。它们模仿了自然森林生态系统的特点和运作方式,为社区提供各种可食用植物,从而减少了对外部食物来源的依赖,并促进了食品的自给自足。)”可知,这篇文章主要介绍了美国城市兴起的食物森林,它模仿自然生态系统,能大幅提高单位面积产量、实现生态可持续,还能凝聚社区,促进粮食自给自足。由此可知,这篇文章的最佳标题是“食物森林:模仿自然,造福社区”。

文章主要介绍语言专家 Jay Keyser 的研究发现,即重复并非简单复制,而是
“same/except”这一独特艺术技巧,且与人类认知相关。
12 .推理判断题。根据第一段“A common cultural concept holds that repetition is a skill widely used in music and a wide range of other art forms. Language expert Jay Keyser’s research reveals that repetition is not mere copying but a deliberate artistic technique that makes art strike a chord deeply with human brains.(一种常见的文化观念认为,重复是一种广泛应用于音乐和其他多种艺术形式的技巧。语言专家杰伊·凯泽的研究表明,重复并非仅仅是复制,而是一种经过深思熟虑的艺术技巧,能让艺术深深触动人类大脑)”可知,作者通过提出一种普遍的文化观念,进而引出 Jay Keyser 的研究,以此来引入话题,所以是通过呈现一种流行的观点来引入。
13 .细节理解题。根据第二段“This perfect balance of familiarity and novelty brings a sense of pleasure in the brain, as humans are born to seek stable patterns and delight in discovering hidden small connections.(这种熟悉与新奇的完美平衡在大脑中带来一种愉悦感,因为人类生来就寻求稳定的模式,并乐于发现隐藏的小联系)”可知,人们欣赏“same/except”技巧是因为它满足了人们发现隐藏联系的需求。
14 .推理判断题。根据第三段“Advertisers, for their own reason, exploit repetition, simply
repeating brand names and classic slogans steadily to build customer trust and deepen memory.
Artists, meanwhile, frequently apply repetition for their part: it creates a sense of comfort while
inviting audiences to take closer inspection of variations, turning passive viewing or listening into active and thoughtful engagement.(广告商出于自身目的,刻意利用重复手法,不断反复强调品牌名称与经典宣传标语,以此建立消费者信任、强化记忆。 与此同时,艺术家也常常在创作中运用重复:它能营造安稳舒适的氛围,引导观众细细品味细节差异,将被动的观赏与聆听,转化为主动思考、深度投入的审美体验)”可知,作者提到广告商运用重复的例子,是为了与艺术家对重复手法的运用形成对比。
15 .细节理解题。根据第三段“Keyser’s research work perfectly bridges art and neuroscience,
showing that great art always agrees with the cognitive(认知的) processing of our minds —
longing for stable order, anticipating familiar patterns, and finding pure joy in subtle but
meaningful changes.(凯泽的研究完美地架起了艺术与神经科学之间的桥梁,表明伟大的艺术总是与我们大脑的认知处理相一致——渴望稳定的秩序,期待熟悉的模式,并在微妙但有意义的变化中找到纯粹的快乐)”可知,作者认为艺术中的“same/except”技巧与人类认知相一致。

本文给出 INTP 人格保持健康生活的建议:读懂并管理情绪、建立自信、告别拖延、
整理生活,同时学会理性平衡冲突、礼貌表达自我。
16 .根据上文“INTP, one of the 16 types in the Myers-Briggs personality classification system,
stands for “introversion (内向型), intuition (直觉力), thinking, and perceiving.”(INTP 是迈尔斯- 布里格斯人格分类体系中 16 种类型之一,其含义为“ 内向型、直觉力、思考、感知”)” 以及 后文“Yet, as one of the most uncommon types, if you’re an INTP, you might struggle to find your place in the world. Thankfully, we’ve got tons of tips to help you live a fulfilling life.(然而,作为最罕见的类型之一,如果你是 INTP 类型的人,你可能会难以在世上找到自己的位置。幸运的是,我们有大量实用的建议可以帮助你过上充实的生活)”可知,前文介绍 INTP 人格定义,后文转折说这类人群难融入外界。F 项“INTP(内向直觉思考者)以强烈的好奇心、源源不断的创意和卓越的思维而著称”介绍 INTP 典型优点,承上铺垫转折。
17 .根据上文“As an INTP, you may find yourself ignoring or not understanding your
emotions.(作为一名 INTP 类型的人,你可能会发现自己忽视或无法理解自己的情绪)”可知,前文提到 INTP 常会忽视、看不懂自身情绪;C 项“你的情绪甚至可能显得超凡脱俗且令人 困惑”承接说明情绪陌生又令人困惑,衔接紧密。
18 .根据上文“Your personality type makes you both analytical and critical. If you spend too
much time criticizing yourself, you could damage your self-esteem. Take time to remind yourself of your positive qualities.(你的性格使你兼具分析能力和批判精神。如果花太多时间自我批评,可能会损害你的自尊心。花些时间提醒自己身上的优点吧)”可知,前文提醒正视自身优点, E 项“在办公桌上贴上鼓励自己的便签,提醒自己有多么了不起!”举例贴鼓励便签自我肯定,贴合段落主旨。
19 .根据上文“As an INTP, you might struggle to complete tasks that don’t interest you. Tasks
like tidying up may also fall by the wayside. Be aware of your tendencies and make time to clean and organize your living and work spaces.(作为一个 INTP 类型的人,你可能会难以完成那些不让你感兴趣的任务。比如整理家务这类事情也可能被你忽略掉。要留意自己的这种倾向,并抽出时间来整理和整顿你的生活和工作空间)”可知,本段的建议是拒绝拖延。D 项“把一直拖延的项目当作优先事项去处理”承接上文,符合语境。
20 .根据后文“As an INTP, you likely have a tendency to be a peace-maker. Or, you may tend to argue in order to prove your point. Aim for a balance here — don’t avoid conflicts altogether, but don’t start them unnecessarily. Work on speaking up in a polite, respectful manner when
something bothers you. Use “I” statements to tell others how you feel while avoiding blaming
them.(作为一个 INTP 类型的人,你可能倾向于充当和平调解者的角色。或者,你可能会倾
向于通过争论来证明自己的观点。在此要寻求一种平衡——不要完全回避冲突,但也不要无
端挑起争端。当有事情让你感到困扰时,试着以礼貌、尊重的方式表达自己的看法。使用“我”语句来向他人传达你的感受,同时避免指责他们)”可知,本段围绕冲突处理、温和表达观点
展开,A 项“提升自己处理冲突的能力”作为小标题,统领全段。

46 .A Successful First-Aid Drill
Last Friday, our school organized a first-aid drill on campus, aiming to raise students ’ safety awareness and teach us basic lifesaving skills.
At the activity, professional instructors first gave a brief lecture on common emergencies. Then they demonstrated practical first-aid methods, such as treating burns, stopping bleeding and doing CPR. As we watched the demonstration closely, we students practiced first-aid skills in
groups under their guidance.
The drill turned out to be highly rewarding. We mastered useful first-aid skills and knew
how to respond to emergencies properly. All of us benefited a lot from this meaningful activity.
47.We were absorbed in cooking, laughing and chatting happily all the time. Mia gently corrected my awkward cutting posture and taught me how to stir-fry without splashing oil everywhere. We shared funny stories about our classmates as the rich aroma of tomato eggs and green vegetables
filled the sunlit kitchen. I completely forgot my old prejudice that cooking was a waste of time; instead, it felt like a peaceful escape from my stressful study routine. In no time, two simple but appetizing dishes were ready to serve.
Seated side by side at the table, I took a tentative bite of the dish we had created together.
The fresh, natural flavor burst in my mouth, nothing like the heavy, greasy takeout I used to rely on. A warm sense of accomplishment washed over me. This experience completely changed my
mind. I started learning basic cooking skills at home, and gradually cut down on takeout. Not only did I feel more energetic and focused in class, but I also discovered the simple joy of preparing
healthy meals for myself.
