2025年高考英语全国一卷 短文

Good evening. Tonight, I'll continue to share how we can use art to spread the word about the changing climate.

晚上好。今晚我将继续分享如何用艺术传播气候变化议题。

In our day-to-day lives, climate change can be hard to see.

日常生活中，气候变化往往难以察觉，

But some places will feel the changes sooner than others.

但某些地区会更快感受到其影响。

The city I live in is very flat and close to the waterline.

我居住的城市地势平坦且靠近海平面，

And rising sea levels are already creating floods.

海平面上升已引发洪水灾害。

So, I decided to do something to make it impossible to ignore.

为此我决定采取行动，让这个问题无法被忽视——

I started an art project called Underwater Homeowners Association and painted numbers onto thousands of large signs.

我启动了名为"水下房主协会"的艺术项目，在数千块大型标牌上绘制数字。

Each number showed how high someone's house was above sea level.

每个数字代表房屋高出海平面的英尺数：

A “1” would mean that if the sea level rose one foot, the building would flood.

若标着"1"，意味着海平面上升1英尺就会淹没建筑。

I gave the signs to homeowners who put them in their yards.

我将标牌分发给房主们，他们将其竖立在自家院落。

Kids painted more signs and put them near their schools and along busy roads.

孩子们也绘制更多标牌，放置在学校周边和繁忙道路旁。

The project has already had a real-world effect.

这个项目已产生实际影响

The people who put the signs in their yards created a real homeowners association to address climate change in their communities.

竖立标牌的房主们成立了真正的业主协会，共同应对社区面临的气候变化问题。
