人与自然 自然 环保意识 「2026重庆合川中学教共体月考」
Have you ever thought about how your daily choices, like what to eat or what to buy, can be part of a bigger global change? In 2025, people around the world are discussing just that—how to make sustainable lifestyles available to everyone.
The idea is simple: we need to live in a way that protects our planet for the future. This means making choices that are better for the environment, like reducing plastic waste, saving energy, and choosing greener products. However, for many people, sustainable options can be too expensive or hard to find. The goal for 2025 is to remove these barriers and make the healthy, eco-friendly choice also the easy and affordable one for all consumers.
This global conversation touches many parts of our lives. It’s about the food we eat and the health of our soil. It’s also about how cities can become greener and how we can protect workers from the increasing heat caused by climate change. These are not just environmental issues; they affect our economy, health, and social progress.
Young people play a key role. By being thoughtful consumers—choosing products with less packaging, saving water and electricity, and learning about these issues—you are already contributing. The shift to a sustainable future starts with small, smart decisions in our everyday lives.

[语篇解读] 本文主要探讨了2025年全球范围内关于可持续生活方式的讨论,旨在让可持续生活方式变得对每个人都容易且负担得起,同时强调了年轻人在这一全球可持续运动中的重要作用。
21.B 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The goal for 2025 is to remove these barriers and make the healthy, eco-friendly choice also the easy and affordable one for all consumers.”可知,2025年可持续生活的主要目标是让健康、环保的选择对所有消费者来说都变得容易且负担得起。故选B。
22.C 词义猜测题。根据第二段中的“However, for many people, sustainable options can be too expensive or hard to find.”和“The goal for 2025 is to remove these barriers”可知,对于许多人来说,可持续的选择可能太贵或难以找到,2025年的目标是消除这些障碍。由此推断,barriers指的是使做某事变得困难的事情。故选C。
23.C 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“年轻人发挥着关键作用,通过成为有思想的消费者——选择包装更少的产品,节约水电,以及了解这些问题——你已经做出了贡献”可推知,年轻人的日常选择对于可持续的未来也很重要。故选C。
24.D 标题归纳题。文章主要讨论了全球可持续运动中个人的选择,包括如何让可持续生活方式变得对每个人都容易且负担得起,以及年轻人在这一运动中的重要作用。因此,选项D“全球可持续运动中的个人选择”最能概括文章主旨。故选D。
