第二段中的“EdgarfoundoutthatLosAngeleswouldbethehostofthe2028SummerOlympicGames.Knowingthestateofthenationalforestatthetime,hefearedthatitsground

ct.(Edgar发现洛杉矶将是2028年夏季奥运会的主办城市。考虑到当时国家森林的状况，他担心满是垃圾的地面会让这座城市成为一个’全球的尴尬’，所以他决定把清理垃圾作为自己的新爱好项目。）”可知，提到2028年夏季奥运会是为了介绍激发Edgar开始他的项目的原因。故选C。2

5.A。推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Rainorshine,Edgarheadedovertocarryouthistask.Heworkedthroughconditionslikesnowstorms,arecordheatwave,andevenaforestfireontheopp

ositesideofthepark.（无论晴雨，Edgar都会去执行他的任务。他在暴风雪中、创纪录的热浪中，甚至是在公园森林另一边大火的条件下工作。）”以及第五段“Themorehedid,themoretreasureshediscovered.Inadditiontoa

natetononprofits.（他做的越多，发现的宝藏就越多。除了很多旧手机和罐头，Edgar还收集了足够的可回收物品，每几周就能赚30美元左右，再捐给非营利组织。）”可知，Edgar不管什么天气都坚持捡垃圾，并且会把通过捡垃圾赚到的钱捐给

慈善机构。由此可以推理出Edgar是一个有决心的、关心他人的人。故选A。26.C。细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“EdgarplanstoreturntoEatonCanyontwoorthreetimesaweektokeepupwiththemaintenance,butheise

xcitedtostartexpandinghisreachtonewlocations.(Edgar计划每周回EatonCanyon两到三次以保持维护，但他也很兴奋地开始将他的影响力扩展到新的地点。）”可知，Edgar的

下一步计划是清理国家森林的其他部分。故选C。27.A。主旨大意题。根据第一段“20-year-oldEdgarMcGregordecidedtovisithislocalpark,EatonCanyon,dayinand

dayouttopickupasmuchlitterashecouldfitintwobuckets（提桶）.Now,over589daysand19,000Twitterfollowerslater,heismorepas

有了19000名粉丝，他对拯救地球的任务比以往任何时候都更有热情！）”可知，这篇文章主要介绍了一个环保英雄的故事。故选A。【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了社交媒体的流行以及对人们生活的影响，并提醒人们用正确的心

态去对待社交媒体所展示的内容。28.C。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Researchersobservedindividuals’moodsbeforeandafterplatforminteractionsandfoundthatthemoretimepeoples

pentonsocialmedia,themoreunhappytheyfelt.（研究者观察了人们在社交媒体互动前后的情绪，并发现人们在社交媒体上花费的时间越长，他们就越感到不快乐。）”可知，如果人

ethertheyarepopularenough.Onlinebullyingmakesthingsworse,withpeoplebeingmeanandhurtfulintheircomments.（即便是那些分享积极内容的人也会担心和焦虑自己能得到多少点赞和评论，

以及他们是否足够受欢迎。网络欺凌让情况变得更糟，有些人在评论中表现出刻薄和伤人的态度。）”可知，发布积极内容的人们也会害怕遭遇其他人的网络欺凌。故选C。30.B。推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Thisoutcomehasseveralreasons.”可知，本段主要介绍了人们使用社交媒体时间越长

就越不开心的原因，即作者是通过给出原因来展开第三段的。故选B。31.D。写作目的题。根据最后一段中的“Researchemphasizesfindingabalancebetweenourdigitala

生活。）”可知，作者写这篇文章是为了主张读者平衡线上和线下生活，这是很重要的。故选D。【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了奥运会的观众人数正在减少，因此奥运会推出了新的项目。文章讲述了人们对新项目的反应和将电子竞技纳入奥运会的潜在好处。32.D。推理判断题。根

据第一段中的“However,theyfaceanagingaudienceanddecliningviewership.ThemedianageofAmericanviewerswas39inthe1992BarcelonaOlympics

,risingto53bythe2016RiodeJaneiroOlympics.TheTokyo2021viewershipdroppedbyathirdcomparedto2008.（然而，奥运会面临着观众老龄化和收视率下降的问题。美国观众的中位年

龄在1992年巴塞罗那奥运会时是39岁，到了2016年里约热内卢奥运会时上升到了53岁。与2008年相比，2021年东京奥运会的收视率下降了三分之一。）”可知，奥运会在美国越来越不受欢迎。故选D。33.B

。细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Toattractyoungeraudiencesandstayrelevant,theInternationalOlympicCommittee(IOC)Presiden

tThomasBachhasacknowledgedtheneedfortheOlympicstoevolve,adding‘youth-based’sports.[为了吸引年轻观众并保持与社会的联系，国际奥委会(IOC)主席托马斯·巴赫(Thoma

sBach)承认奥运会需要与时俱进，因此奥运会正在扩展，增加了‘以年轻人为基础’的体育项目。]”可知，奥运会通过增加更多吸引年轻一代的运动项目来与社会保持联系。故选B。34.D。观点态度题。根据倒数第二

段中的“Theinaugural（首次的）OlympicEsportsWeekinSingaporeinJune2023wasmetwithconfusionamongfans,witheventslikearcheryand‘Just

Dance’notreflectingasexpected,attractingapeakviewershipofonly22,000.(2023年6月在新加坡举行的首届奥林匹克电子竞技周遭遇了粉丝的困惑，像

射箭和‘JustDance’这样的项目并没有像预期的那样引起共鸣，最高观看人数仅为22000。）”可知，观众对首届奥运会电子竞技周不感兴趣。故选D。35.C。段落大意题。根据最后一段“Recognizingesports’potential,theIOChasofficiallyin

cludedesportsintheOlympicMovementwiththeOlympicEsportsGamesinSaudiArabiain2025.Thisdecisionisinlinewithth

可知，最后一段主要讲将电子竞技纳入奥运会的潜在好处。故选C。【语篇导读】本文是一篇议论文，主要介绍了学校是否应该禁止使用手机。36.C。根据下文“Somepeopledoubtwhetherstudentsarefocuse

dontheirlessonsorareinsteaddistracted（使分心）bytheirdevices,textingoreventryingtocheatbytakingphotosoftests.There’salsoachancethey’re

ntshavegrownupwithmobilephones.（这些学校的老师认为学生们是伴随着手机长大的。）”可知，有的学校没有禁止学生上课使用手机，D项“然而，一些学校仍然没有选择禁止使用手机。”符合语境，故选择D项。40.B。细节理解题

。根据上文“Teachersthinkit’stheirjobtoteachstudentshowtousemobilephonestherightwayasalearningtool.Theyalsoteachabouthowtousephonesproperl

y,includinghowtoberesponsiblewithsocialmediaandtheinternet.（教师们认为，教导学生如何正确地将手机作为一种学习工具使用是他们的职责。他们还教授如何恰当地使用手机，包括如何负责任地使用社交媒体和互联网。）”可知，这里表达的观点是支持使用

手机的，B项“他们认为这是改变孩子教育的一部分”，选项中的they指代空格前的teachers，符合语境，故选择B项。【语篇导读】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了体育锻炼帮助Hall走出抑郁，让她找到自信并改变了人生态度的故事。41.C。
