"It's beautiful here,"I said to Bill,pointing out the wildflowers.The road turned suddenly, revcaling a charming downtown.We drove a bit farther and saw a subdivision(建房土地)under construction in the suburbs of the town.We didn't intend to buy a new home but surprisingly,we parked and took a tour of the unfinished houses. "I don't know about you,"Bill said,"but there's something about this place that calls to me."I felt it too.As if we belonged there.Numerous times in our marriage,Bill and I have acted on faith,even when we didn't immediately understand where we were being led or why.By nightfall,we signed a contract for a house.Three months later,we moved in. My aunt called one day,"You moved to Anna!What a small world it is!Didn't you know that your great-great-grandmother,Rebecca,moved to Anna at the end of the 1800s?"Bill was as astonished as I was. Three years later,a historical marker was placed near our home,noting that the land was the original homestead ()of Collin McKinney,a pioneer who'd helped draft the Texas Declaration of Independence.We knew of him as my husband's great-great-great-grandfather,but we had no idea we were living on a piece of land that was once his homestead. It all made sense now.The Lord led us to move to Anna,the land of our ancestors,so we could feel rooted,connected to our heritage.No wonder we're so at home here! 24.Why did the author mention their exploration ten years ago? A.To recall their impressive adventure. B.To show their familiarity with the land. C.To present the ideal home in their heart.

A.A Land of Wonder B.A Mystcrious Way Homc C.An Unforgcttable Journcy D.An Adventurc of Sccking Truth A 13th-century Italian mathematician called Leonardo of Pisa penned one of the world's most famous sequences of numbers,the Fibonacci sequence.It is a series where each number is the sum of the two numbers before it:0,1,1,2,3,5,8,13,21,34,etc.When you divide any number above five by the number before it,,the result approaches about I.618,known as the“golden ratio(黄金比例)" Leonardo,also called Fibonacci,included the sequence in the book Liber Abaci,intended for tradesmen to track their finances.In this,he uses an unrealistic example of rabbits reproducing to explain the sequence,where one rabbit pair produces a single young each month that mates with another rabbit to produce a single rabbit the following month.Each month,the number of rabbits increases by the same number in the Fibonacci sequence.Leonardo is often credited with discovering the sequence. However,it has been used in the Hindu-Arabic numeral system since at least 200 BCE. The "golden"quality of the ratio seemingly shows up everywhere,which early scholars saw as the presence of universal order.For cxample,it has bcen seen in the spirals (of some seashells,or seeds on sunflower heads.Fibonacci numbers determine cven proportions (in the human body. Artists have used the famous ratio to producc appealing works of art,such as the Mona Lisa.The golden ratio makes many appearances throughout thc songs of some of the great musicians.Mozart used the golden ratio while composing.Lady Gaga's hit song Perfect lllusion,has a dramatic key change at the 1IIth second of the 179-sccond song,ncarly the golden ratio. While humans love to scc patterns,somc pcople in the scientific community suggest there are many examples of nature not following the rule.However,the Fibonacci sequence and golden ratio 高二期中联考英语试卷另6页共12页 扫描全能王创建 highlight the intcrconncctcdncss of math,sciencc,and creativity.They remind us that patterns- whcther in sunflower sccds,or musical rhythms-invite us to uncover the hidden rules shaping our world. 28.What defincs the Fibonacci sequence?

D In many cultures,saying someone else's given name is disrespectful,especially if they have higher status than you.Even your parents might never call your name.It's not that they don't remember what their friends and relatives are called.Rather,saying names makes them feel anxious,uneasy,or simply awkward. In 2023,a group of psychologists called this phenomenon "Alexinomia",and those who feel it most severely might avoid addressing anyone by their name in any case."Aexinomia"is strongest around those they are closest to,so some people can't bring themselves to say the name of their wife or 高二期中联考英语试卷第7页共12页 扫描全能王创建 best fricnd. Steven Clayman,a sociology professor,explained in one of his books,"People with Alexinomia arc likcly to have this intuition (that to use a name is to take a stand and to do something they don't intend to do."Actually,Alexinomia is a mostly harmless quirk (of the human experience. However,if we always avoid saying the names of those closest to us,it can distort (how they feel about us. Namcs are always optional in a conversation because they aren't grammatically necessary. However,if you can call others'names at a right moment,their social function will shine through obviously.For example,American salespeople are trained to say customers'names over and over again, which is also a common tactic for building a close relationship in business,during telemarketing calls and on first dates. As Dale Carnegie wrote,"a person's name is the sweetest and most important sound in any language to that person."Learning to overcome the discomfort and say their names can remind your loved ones that you care,even though the process of change is challenging. 32.Which of the following can best describe"Alexinomia"? A.A disorder making people mistake others'names. B.A communication style stressing titles over names. C.A discomfort of calling names when communicating. D.A dilemma of using nicknames instead of real names. 33.Why do some people suffer from"Alexinomia"? A.They try to take a stand in certain cases. B.They feel stressed for being called names publicly. C.They think naming is grammatically wrong in talks. D.They sense using names may cause undesirable results. 34.What does the underlined word"tactic"in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Preference B.Strategy C.Sense D.Alternative 35.What might the following paragraphs focus on? A.The necessity of calling names. B.The causes leading to Alexinomia. C.The significance of people's names. D.The solutions to overcoming Alexinomia. 高二期中联考英语试卷第8页共12页 扫描全能王创建 第二节（共5个小题：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，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everyone occasionally has disagreements with friends or family members.While disagreements can be uncomfortable,here are some steps you can take to make conversations more civil and productive. 36 Even if you don't share someone's point of view,you can still listen to what they have to say.Show that you're paying attention by listening carefully without interrupting.Think about how their life experiences may be different from yours,which gives them a perspective different from yours too. Another way to show that you're listening is by asking questions or repeating what they said. Use respectful language 37 That is true especially if it's on a subject you're passionate about.Some people shoot down others'opinions by using sarcasm (or attacking the person's judgment.Avoid using rude words,like"stupid",or"foolish".Instead,focus on speaking calmly.38For example, you might lead your opinion with“I feel'"or“I see this another way”. Stick to the facts If you have a strong opinion,you can make a better case for it with facts instead of feelings.Start by asking if you can share your opinion.Then,relax your shoulders and say what you would like to say in a calm voice.If you get interrupted,gently remind the person that you gave them a turn to speak and now you would like to speak. 39 Find common ground You may find that you can't change the other person's mind,and they may not change yours. 40 You may also gain a better understanding of each other's opinion.In the end,it's worth the effort because healthy communication builds strong relationships and communities. A.Accept their opinion B.See their perspective C.Then give the person a chance to respond. D.You can still look for points you do agree on. E.Start your statements with"I"rather than"You".
