B Growing up, I remember my father as a silent, serious man — not the sort of person around whom one could laugh. As a teenager arriving in America, knowing nothing, I wanted a father who could explain the human journey. In college, when friends called home for advice, I would sink into deep depression for what I did not have. Today, at twenty-seven, I have come to rediscover them in ways that my teenage mind would not allow — as adults and as friends with their own faults and weaknesses. One night after my move back home, I overheard my father on the telephone. There was some trouble. Later, Dad shared the problem with me. Apparently my legal training had earned me some privileges(特权) in his eyes. I talked through the problem with Dad, analyzing the purposes of the people involved and offering several negotiation skills. He listened patiently before finally admitting, “I can’t think like that. I am a simple man.” Dad is a brilliant scientist who can deconstruct(解构)the building blocks of nature. Yet human nature is a mystery to him. That night I realized that he was simply not skilled at dealing with people, much less the trouble of a conflicted teenager. It’s not in his nature to understand human desires. And so, there it was — it was no one’s fault that my father held no interest in human lives while I placed great importance on them. We are at times born more sensitive, wide-eyed, and dreamy than our parents and become more curious and idealistic than them. Dad perhaps never expected me for a child. And I, who knew Dad as an intelligent man, had never understood that his intelligence did not cover all of my feelings. It has saved me years of questioning and confusion. I now see my parents as people who have other relationships than just Father and Mother. I now ignore their many faults and weaknesses, which once annoyed me. I now know my parents as friends: people who ask me for advice; people who need my support and understanding. And I’ve come to see my past clearly. 4．What was the author’s impression of her father when she was a teenager? A．Friendly but irresponsible. B．Intelligent but severe. C．Cold and forceful. D．Caring and communicative. 5．Why did the author feel depressed when her friends called home? A．She did not have a phone to call home. B．Her father did not care about her human journey. C．Her father was too busy to answer her phone. D．Her father couldn’t give her proper advice. 6．After the author overheard her father on the telephone, ______. A．he blamed her for impoliteness B．he rediscovered human nature C．he consulted with her about his problem D．he changed his attitude towards the author 7．The author realized that ______. A．her father had too many faults and weaknesses B．her father was not as intelligent as she had thought C．her father was not good at interpersonal relationships D．her father placed too much importance on social activities C Baseball has served as more than just a sport throughout its history. One such period is the Great Recession (大衰退) of 2008, a time marked by financial hardship, unemployment, and uncertainty. Baseball, however, managed not just to survive but to provide hope, entertainment. and even a sense of normality to many. As the Great Recession spread around the world starting in 2008, every sector faced significant challenges. For Major League Baseball (MLB), the impact was visible. Fans found themselves tightening their belts. Teams began offering flexible ticket pricing and promotions to families and individuals hit hardest by the economic downturn. “Dollar Night” promotions became more common, offering affordable entrance fees and snacks to ensure family visits remained possible. While the Great Recession posed numerous challenges, it also coexisted with a technological transformation (转变) that reshaped how fans engaged with baseball. MLB made use of the digital wave, enabling fans worldwide to watch games live. Moreover, the rise of social media allowed for more personalized and immediate fan engagement. Teams and players used platforms to communicate directly with fans through platforms, sharing behind-the-scenes content, hosting live Q & A sessions, and offering insights into players’ life off the field. These innovations further increased the role of baseball as a comforting, unifying force even during economic hardship. Baseball’s influence as a cultural and social entity (实体) remained deep during the Great Recession. The 2008 World Series, for instance, offered a rare moment in economic recession. As the Philadelphia Phillies won the game and kept their title, the win symbolized championship and community spirit, encouraging far beyond the city and showing baseball’s ability to inspire unity across different backgrounds and challenges. As we reflect on the interaction between baseball and economic crises, from the Great Recession to today’s economic landscape, it becomes clear that the sport stands as a remarkable proof to adaptation and cultural permanence. 8．Why did people go watch baseball games in the crisis? A．They were little affected by the crisis. B．It provided inspiration to people. C．They didn’t work so they had time. D．It was the only amusement at that time. 9．How did MLB attract audiences during the Great Recession? A．By providing free snacks to fans. B．By reducing the number of games. C．By increasing face-to-face interactions. D．By adopting family-friendly promotions. 10．What did the social media bring to baseball? A．Increasing fans’ engagements. B．Organizing larger fan events. C．Broadcasting games in real time. D．Establishing a special community. 11．What’s the best title for the text? A．The Impacts of Sports on the Social Culture. B．The Adjustment of MLB in the Great Recession. C．The Role of Baseball During Economic Crises. D．The Importance of Unity Spirit During Hardship. D Electronic waste, or e-waste, has reached levels that cannot be continued. More efforts are needed to take precious metals from abandoned laptops and smartphones. Research shows that over 57 million tons of e-waste was created worldwide in 2021 and people are frustrated about the lack of options to recycle their tech. Building a low-carbon economy will depend on battery technology for electric vehicles and energy storage. Taking the elements from used batteries will be an environmental necessity. Lithium-ion (锂离子) batteries also contain cobalt (钴) and copper (铜), but as mining for these metals creates poisonous pollution that can ruin the environment, so too can battery recycling if not done properly. It’s a problem that needs to be solved quickly. Another strong pressure in mining e-waste for recycled materials is that supplies could stop entirely. Up to 30 different elements are used in smartphones, and six of them are predicted to run out in the next century. “Developing a circular economy where minerals used in tech devices are saved and repurposed could help us to bypass supply chain issues in the future while also helping to reduce environmental impacts,” said RSC president Tom Welton. “It is essential that governments and businesses urgently do more to deal with the world’s growing e-waste crisis and ease the worry on supply chains.” The US generates more than six million tons of e-waste each year and recycles only15 per cent. So there is a huge need to increase and regulate recycling instead of shipping waste abroad, where it is taken apart or made into pieces, releasing poison that can expose workers, including children, to diseases like cancer. Vast quantities are simply burned or buried in landfill to pollute the air, soil and water. Electronic equipment is forecast to generate nearly 75 million metric tons of e-waste annually by 2030—almost double what was created in 2014. Less than 20per cent of global e-waste is currently recycled and that needs to change. 12．What’s the author’s attitude towards the future supplies of certain elements? A．Concerned. B．Satisfied. C．Objective. D．Uncertain. 13．What does Tom Welton suggest? A．Regulating local recycling. B．Boosting efforts to take metals. C．Increasing global e-waste recycling. D．Developing a circular economy for tech minerals. 14．Why does the author mention the US e-waste in the fifth paragraph? A．To show the focus on the problem from the government. B．To make a further prediction about worsening problems. C．To illustrate the seriousness of the problem. D．To find a solution to the problem. 15．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．Mining’s environmental impact. B．Lack of recycling options for tech devices. C．Need for a circular economy in tech devices. D．Growing e-waste crisis and supply chain effects. 第二节：七选五（12.5分） Personal Development For Teens Teenagers may face many challenges unique to them. Below are some steps to help you evolve and be a better person in your teens. Learn new skill Sometimes, a side-skill you have gained along the way turns out the very thing that creates an opportunity for success. 16 You shouldn’t be forced to determine your future based on your grades and choices in high school, so learning new skills will definitely come in handy later. Try to socialize more 17 Wherever you go and whatever you do, the ability to blend in and communicate with others can save you in tough times. Socializing, making friends, and forming healthy relationships can help you learn things you could never find out on your own. Have a better lifestyle.

Take care of your health Without health, it is almost impossible to enjoy life to its fullest. Money, grades, or events are replaceable; your health is not. And while it is very important to maintain good physical health, we cannot forget about our mental health. 19 Embrace positivity Try to avoid people who ruin everything with negativity and befriend those who give you positive vibes (感应). 20 How can you improve your yourself if your surroundings keep telling you that changing for the better is useless? Negative people give up quickly because they can never see the light in the darkness. Every teenager should be taught and reminded of ways to improve themselves so that they can see a clearer picture of their future. A．Grasping new skills is an easy job. B．You need people who make you feel good about life. C．Force yourself to socialize—even if you don’t want to. D．Proper communication is crucial if you want to be a better person. E．Our mind is just as important, and we should give it the same amount of attention. F．Also, when you are in your teens, you hardly know what you want to do with your life. G．When you’re at peace with how you live your days, you can focus on improving yourself. 二、完形填空 I had never picked up a camera before my freshman year in 2012, when my journey to an artist began.

Because we had just moved into the neighborhood, I couldn’t imagine who it would be. Opening the door, an old man stood there, who was dressed in dirty clothing and wearing dirty rubber boots. His hand hung a plastic bag. “Can I help you?” I asked. “Would you like to buy some fresh garden vegetables?” His blue eyes were hopeful. “Are they from your garden?” I looked inside his plastic bag and saw some carrots with soil. “Yes,” his voice was soft. “And I can get some apples from a tree in my yard. Would you like some of those, too?” My heart softened, and I wondered if he was badly in need of money. With a sigh, I said, “Please step inside and I’ll get my money.” The next day, he knocked at our door again. This time, my little four-year-old daughter got there first. “Oh, hello. Would you like to come in for some tea?” Without a second thought, the old man stepped inside and held out a broken basket with several apples. “From my tree,” he said, removing a worn cap. “You might like to make a pie.” The three of us sat at the kitchen table and drank our tea. It was obvious that my daughter liked hosting a visitor in her never-ending questions. “What is your name? Where do you live? Why are your clothes so dirty?”        The homeless-looking man laughed as he answered each question. His name was Mr. Locket and he lived around the corner. His wife had passed away several years ago, and his children all lived far away. He was lonely. His need for company had sent him door to door selling fruit and vegetables. Ours was the only door opened to him that day. 注意：1. 续写词数应为100左右； 2. 开头已给出。 Paragraph 1: When he finished the tea, he said he had to go home and promised to return the next day. _______________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Several years later, a small envelope was delivered to our home—a letter from the old man’s daughter. _______________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 石嘴山市第一中学2024-2025学年高二年级期中考试 英语答案 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 C A D B D C C B D A 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 C A D C D F D G E B 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 B C C A D A A B C B 题号 31 32 33 34 35 答案 B C A D D 1．C 2．A 3．D 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了2025年哈佛艺术节的相关信息。 1．细节理解题。根据Apply to Perform部分中“Final deadline: January 29, 2025 (最终截止日期：2025年1月29日)”可知，申请独奏表演的最晚日期是2025年1月29日。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据Apply to Perform部分中“Each individual artist may perform in up to 3 Performance Fair chances.

trying to improve it. Here are my findings. Most students often recite excellent compositions, which can help develop a sense of language. Some like writing diaries every day, while others sometimes write letters to foreign e-friends. I think these are all good ways to improve English writing ability as long as they suit us. Whatever ways we choose, we all need to be careful. In my opinion, besides those ways, we can contribute regularly to the school English newspaper. While we practice writing, we should also listen, speak and read more, because all skills reinforce each other. 【导语】本篇书面表达是一篇说明文。你的外教让你调查你班学生在课外提高英语写作能力的方法。请以“Practicing Writing After Class”为题写一篇短文，根据题目所给要求介绍你的调查结果。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 优秀的：excellent→ outstanding 帮助：help→assist 方法：way→method 观点：opinion→view 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Writing is one of the English skills, so the students in our class are trying to improve it. 拓展句：Since writing is one of the English skills, the students in our class are trying to improve it. 【点睛】[高分句型1] Most students often recite excellent compositions, which can help develop a sense of language.（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] Whatever ways we choose, we all need to be careful.（运用了whatever引导的让步状语从句） 47．Paragraph 1: When he finished the tea, he said he had to go home and promised to return the next day.

But before long, he had to move to live with his daughter and we hadn’t seen him ever since. Paragraph 2: Several years later, a small envelope was delivered to our home—a letter from the old man’s daughter. She informed us that our dear old friend had passed away and sent us another letter written by the old man, which said, “Thank you for all your kindnesses to an old man.
