But as a recent TikTok video showed, a 12-year-old isn’t going to let his muscular dystrophy (肌肉萎缩) stop him from rolling up his sleeves and getting dirty. John Ray was born with a rare muscular disease that causes muscles to weaken. “When he was born his prospect was not good. The doctors said they didn’t expect him to live long,” shared John’s mother, Trina Reid with Ontario Farmer. Thankfully, however, John has proved doctors wrong by living life to the full, so much that he’s able to lend a much needed hand to his father, Donny Ray on the farm. Young John used to be brought to a specific area of the farm to work, but his regular wheelchair wasn’t suitable for farm life, so the family tried their best to adapt to their son’s needs. One day Donny came across an Action Trackchair wheelchair. Unfortunately the chair came with a high price tag that the family couldn’t afford. With the help of Donny’s employer, Wallenstein Feed& Supply Ltd., the family were able to buy the impressive piece of equipment. Donny made a few adaptions so John could help with the feeding in the barn (谷仓). Over the next two months he’s even been out in the fields helping with the potato planting. Donny shared “No disabilities here, only new abilities. We get to see a very hard-working John: in the barn and out in the fields.” So with the love, support, and determination of John’s family, the youngster’s future farming career is definitely looking hopeful. And as his mom shares: “If John has taught me anything, it’s that perseverance (毅力) is everything. There is nothing he says he can’t do.” 4. What did John Ray desire to do? A. To live a long life. B. To cure his disease. C. To work on the farm. D. To get family support. 5. Why did Donny change the Action Trackchair wheelchair? A. To receive a donation from a charity. B. To reduce the price of the equipment. C. To make John adapt to the wheelchair. D. To help John with more farm activities. 6. What can be inferred from Donny Ray’s words in paragraph 5? A. John’s disabilities limit his capabilities. B. John’s life on the farm is extremely tough. C. John’s condition has improved significantly over time. D. John has developed new abilities despite his condition. 7. What is the main message the author wants to convey in the text? A. The huge challenges of finding a rewarding career. B. Overcoming physical limitations to achieve one’s dreams. C. Modern equipment is essential for people with disabilities. D. The importance of family support in living independently. C New Scientist magazine’s chief reporter Adam Vaughan recently published “How your day will look in a carbon-neutral(碳中和) world.” Here, he imagines what a typical day would be like in the future-through the eyes of Isla, “a child in 2050”-after we’ve cut carbon emissions(排放). Vaughan acknowledges the writing is out of imagination but it is concluded by research, expert opinion, and experiments happening right now. Isla lives in the United Kingdom— will it still be a united kingdom in 2050? -and her life looks pretty much like life does today: She has a house, a car and a job. There are forests, and giant machines taking carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) out of the atmosphere. It all sounds like a green and pleasant land, but it didn’t sound like the future to me. It’s just like the life we are living now. It’s an interesting exercise, imagining what it will be like in about 30 years. I thought I would give it a try: Here is my story about Edie, living in Toronto, Canada in 2050. Edie’s alarm goes off at 4:00 a. m. She gets up, folds up the bed in the garage that is her apartment and workshop. She considers herself to be very lucky to have this garage. The only people that live in houses these days are multi-millionaires from all over the world, especially from Arizona and other southern states, wishing to move to Canada with its cooler climate and plentiful water. They can afford the million-dollar immigrant visa fee. At that time, there are no office or industrial jobs anymore: Artificial Intelligence and robots will take care of that. The few jobs left are in service, culture or health care. Luckily, Edie has her job. She checks the balance in her Personal Carbon Allowance (PCA) account to see if she has enough to buy another battery for her e-bike. If she doesn’t have enough then she will have to buy carbon credits, and they. are expensive. She sets her alarm for 6:00 p. m. when the streets of Toronto will come alive again on this hot November day. 8. What can we know about Adam Vaughan’s passage? A. It is about creative imagination. B. It mainly describes advance in science. C. It focuses on solutions to carbon emissions. D. It is his vision of the future. 9. What does the author think of Isla’s life? A. Frightening. B. Ordinary. C. Ideal. D. Pleasant. 10 Why do people like Canada according to Edie? A. People want to get better education. B. The living expense there is rather low. C. It has a cool and comfortable temperature. D. The water in Canada hasn’t been polluted. 11. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Two women’s entirely different lives. B. What our life will be like in 2050. C. A look into Adam Vaughan’s Life. D. How we can handle our account well. D When traveling to foreign countries, mastering the art of body language is key for perfect travel experience. As a body language expert, it’s easy for me to see how we communicate with those around us without even saying a word. I especially believe the importance of the universal language of body talk. At most times when traveling abroad, it is the only way that connects every human being, no matter the geographic location. A simple custom or sign of respect is vital to understand before taking flight to your desired destination. For example, it is customary to simply eat the food that you have before you when we are out at a business lunch. In Asian customs, business lunches are strict. Finishing your plate or eating most of the food you ordered is considered rude in Asian culture. “Body language teaches us everything about a person,” says Benjamin Wey, a professor at two European universities. “My professional career would be entirely different if it were not for body language and my understanding of it.” Frequently visiting both Europe and the US, Wey has come to understand that internationally, our ability to actively respect cultural customs becomes the currency within business. One key element that Wey has taken away from his travels abroad is “that all people want to be treated with respect.” So, show your respect-and learn more about the local customs and traditions or the spots on your route. Gather an understanding of what gestures or expressions are considered useful, and avoid those that may be offensive to your new friends. Though we started with one language in common-body language, the cultures of the world have evolved (演化). It is important to be able to identify and appreciate these differences; it will make our world smaller as a result. 12. Why does the author think body language is important? A. It makes different cultures getting more alike. B. It can effectively show your respect to others. C. It allows us to connect with people anywhere. D. It replaces the need for verbal communication. 13. What does the passage advise travelers to do to improve their travel experience? A. Avoid making any gestures at all. B. Finish the food you order in the plate. C. Learn to use the local language fluently. D. Show respect by following local customs. 14. What does the underlined word “offensive” mean in paragraph 5? A. Rude. B. Similar. C. Awesome. D. Practical. 15. What is the best title of the text? A. Cross-cultural Body Language B. The Traditional Cuisine Culture C. A Perfect Travel Experience Abroad D. A Good Way to Learn Foreign Cultures 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Brain exercises to improve memory Memory is an intellectual ability to collect, store and recall events that people have experienced in the past.

They shared everything—from secrets to lunches—and were inseparable. One sunny afternoon, as they walked in the nearby park, chatting about their plans for the future, they saw an injured dog. Without hesitation, Lily and Susan decided to help the poor little dog. They carefully held it and rushed to the nearest vet (兽医) clinic. The vet assured them that the dog would be fine with some rest and medicine. Relieved, they decided to name the dog Lucky and take turns to care for it until it recovered. Their act of kindness brought them even closer, and they spent many joyful hours playing with Lucky in the park. However, as high school progressed, their interests started to diverge (出现分歧) . Lily became passionate about painting, spending hours in the art room perfecting her art works, while Susan developed a deep interest in science, joining the school’s science club and taking part in various competitions. As time passed, they found themselves with less and less in common. One day, a misunderstanding occurred when Lily blamed Susan for ignoring Lucky because of her busy schedule. Susan felt hurt and believed that Lily didn’t understand the pressure she was under with her studies and extra-curricular activities. They argued, and for the first time, their friendship seemed strained. Feeling disheartened, both girls went their separate ways. But despite their differences, they couldn’t shake off the memories of better times and the close relationship they once shared. One evening, as Lily walked home from an art class, she noticed Susan sitting alone on the side of the road, looking deep in thought. She hesitated but then gathered up the courage to approach her. “Mind if I sit down?” she asked softly. Susan looked up, surprised but not unwelcoming. “I was just thinking about old times,” she admitted. “Me too,” Lily said quietly. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150个左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 They sat in silence for a while, both lost in their thoughts. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After talking, they came up with a plan to rebuild their relationship. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024—2025学年高二期中考试 英语试题 考生注意： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 考试时间为120分钟，满分150分 第一部分听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

Firstly, they must be curious, always eager to explore unknown fields. Secondly, they should be persistent, never giving up in the face of difficulties. Also, they need to be creative to make breakthroughs. The spirit of curiosity drives scientists to continuously expand the boundaries of human knowledge. Persistence enables them to persevere through the toughest challenges and achieve their goals. Creativity allows them to come up with novel ideas and solutions that can change the world. These spirits not only inspire us to pursue knowledge and overcome difficulties but also encourage us to think differently and contribute to the progress of society. That’s all.

Suddenly, Susan said, “I don't know why we argued, and it was all because of some small things.” “And, I care about Lucky. It’s the cutest little dog in the world,” Susan added. Lily smiled and said, “Of course, we’re still good friends.” The two girls talked a lot, as if unaware of the passage of time. They were happy to be able to bridge the gap between each other. After talking, they came up with a plan to rebuild their relationship. Susan decided to try to understand painting, while Lily decided to try to understand science. After school, they went home together. On weekends, they took Lucky to the park for a walk, which made them feel excited. When encountering disagreements, they would analyze rather than argue. True friends will not be separated by minor conflicts. True friends understand and support each other. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
