For book lovers and history enthusiasts, visiting ancient libraries offers a unique opportunity to connect with humanity’s intellectual heritage. Here are highlights from three of the world’s most remarkable libraries. The Great Library of Alexandria established during Egypt’s Ptolemaic dynasty, was a center for ancient scholarship. Though its destruction remains unknown in mystery, its legacy as a repository (储藏室) of universal knowledge continues to inspire modern libraries. Trinity College Library in Dublin houses the famous Book of Kells, a 9th-century illuminated manuscript. Its iconic Long Room, built in the early 18th century, contains over 200,000 ancient volumes, making it a must-see destination for visitors to Ireland. China’s Tianyi Pavilion in Ningbo, constructed during the Ming Dynasty, is the country’s oldest surviving private library. With 300,000 volumes including 80,000 rare books, its classical architecture and tranqui l Moon Lake setting reflect traditional Chinese scholarly ideals. These libraries, along with four others featured in the original list, demonstrate how different cultures have preserved knowledge throughout history. These libraries share common values despite their geographical and cultural differences. They demonstrate how various societies developed systems to protect knowledge through wars, natural disasters, and political changes. More than just book repositories, they stand as monuments to human curiosity and our endless pursuit of understanding. 1. What is the main purpose of the article? A. To promote international library tourism. B. To introduce historically significant libraries. C. To compare library architectures across countries. D. To analyze ancient book preservation techniques. 2. What makes Tianyi Pavilion unique? A. It was built by a famous emperor. B. It’s the world’s largest university library. C. It is the oldest private library still in existence in China. D. It collected knowledge from various disciplines. 3. What common theme do these libraries share? A. They were destroyed and rebuilt. B. They are located in capital cities. C. They focus exclusively on scientific works. D. They represent cultural efforts to preserve knowledge. B Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959), widely regarded as America’s greatest architect, pioneered the philosophy of “organic architecture” that revolutionized modern design. His innovative approach emphasized creating structures that existed in harmony with their natural surroundings, a concept that grew from his childhood experiences in rural Wisconsin. Born to a Welsh family, Wright spent his formative years immersed in the natural beauty of the Wisconsin landscape. These early experiences fundamentally shaped his architectural vision. After briefly studying civil engineering at the University of Wisconsin, he moved to Chicago in 1887 to apprentice (学徒) with the renowned architect Louis Sullivan. From Sullivan, Wright adopted the method “form follows function,” which became a cornerstone of his design philosophy. Wright’s breakthrough came with his development of the Prairie School style, characterized by horizontal lines, open floor plans, and integration with the environment. His residential designs like the Robie House (1909) showcased these innovative concepts. Wright’s career was marked by both triumph and tragedy — his Imperial Hotel in Tokyo famously survived the 1923 Great Kanto Earthquake. while his personal residence Taliesin suffered two disastrous fires. Remarkably productive in his later years, Wright designed nearly one-third of his 1,100 projects after turning 70. His final masterpiece, New York’s Guggenheim Museum, remains an iconic example of his spiral (螺旋) design concepts. Beyond buildings, Wright established the Taliesin Fellowship to train future architects and authored influential works like An Autobiography (1932). Today, eight of Wright’s buildings are designated UNESCO World Heritage Sites, recognizing his enduring influence on sustainable architecture and urban planning concepts that were decades ahead of their time. 4. What most fundamentally influenced Wright’s architectural vision? A. His design of the Robie House. B. His apprenticeship with Louis Sullivan. C. His early years spent in the countryside of Wisconsin. D. His study of civil engineering at the University of Wisconsin. 5. Why is the Imperial Hotel mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To demonstrate its fire resistance. B. To explain Wright’s early career struggles. C. To highlight the luxurious style of Wright’s architecture. D. To show Wright’s ability to design earthquake-resistant buildings. 6. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. Wright designed the Guggenheim Museum when he was 70． B. Wright’s Prairie School style features spiral design concepts. C. Wright established the Taliesin Fellowship to design buildings. D. Eight of Wright’s structures have been listed among UNESCO World Heritage Sites. 7. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The concept of “organic architecture”. B. The development of the Prairie School style. C. The life and achievements of Frank Lloyd Wright. D. The influence of Frank Lloyd Wright on classical architecture. C For centuries, humans have wondered if animals can communicate across species. Recent research offers fascinating insights into this question. Research published in Current Biology shows that migratory songbirds can interpret alarm calls from different bird species. These birds often travel alone over long distances making it crucial to detect potential threats. Scientists found that when a songbird hears another species’ alarm call, it responds appropriately — either by freezing or fleeing — even though the call is not part of its own natural repertoire (本领). Dr. Benjamin Van Doren, who led the study, explained, “This suggests that birds can generalize the meaning of certain sounds, regardless of which species produces them.” This cross-species understanding likely helps migratory birds survive in unfamiliar environments where they encounter many different animals. One of the most fascinating examples comes from fork-tailed drongos in Africa. These clever birds follow meerkats and other animals to steal their food. At first, drongos use their own alarm calls to scare meerkats away from their meals. However, when the meerkats learn to ignore these calls, the drongos change their approach. Remarkably, drongos begin mimicking the alarm calls of other species — sometimes even perfectly copying the meerkats’ own warning signals. By rotating through different calls, they keep their victims uncertain and maintain their food-stealing strategy. Dr. Thomas Flower, who studied this behavior, noted, “Drongos don’t just mimic randomly; they choose calls that are most likely to work in each situation.” These examples show advanced communication skills. However, scientists debate whether this demonstrates true intentional deception (欺骗) or simply learned behavior. Young drongos, for instance, start by mimicking sounds without understanding their purpose. Only through trial and error do they learn which calls are effective. New technologies, such as AI-powered bioacoustic (生物声学) analysis, are helping scientists decode animal communication more precisely. Future studies may reveal whether some species can engage in true two-way communication with others — a discovery that would revolutionize our understanding of animal cognition. 8. What is the main focus of the research mentioned? A. Documenting bird migration patterns. B. Studying cross-species communication. C. Comparing human and animal languages. D. Exploring animals’ food-seeking strategies. 9. Why is cross-species communication important for migratory songbirds? A. It helps them find mates during migration. B. It enables them to imitate other birds’ alarm call. C. It allows them to recognize dangers in new areas. D. It helps them locate food more efficiently over long distance. 10 What remains uncertain about drongos’ behavior? A. How far they travel daily. B. How many calls they can memorize. C. Whether they recognize human speech. D. Whether they deliberately deceive other animals. 11. How might future technologies contribute to this field of research? A. By reducing the need for field observations. B. By preventing animals from mimicking each other. C. By teaching animals human languages more precisely. D. By aiding in the better understanding of animal communication. D Can people truly forget their native language? Linguists have identified a phenomenon called “native language attrition”, which refers to the gradual decline of one’s first language proficiency due to limited use. This is particularly common among individuals who move to a country where another language is dominant. Research shows that the extent of attrition depends heavily on age. Young children are particularly vulnerable to complete native language loss. A groundbreaking 2003 study published in Cerebral Cortex examined Korean children adopted by French families before age 8．Remarkably, by age 30, these individuals showed no better understanding of Korean than native French speakers who had never been exposed to the language. In contrast, teenagers and adults are far less likely to forget their native language. According to Professor Laura Dominguez, a linguistics expert, this is because older individuals have a more solid foundation in their first language. After puberty (青春期), the brain becomes less adaptable, making it harder to lose established language skills. Of all linguistic elements, vocabulary suffers the most from attrition. An English student returning from Spain might temporarily struggle to recall certain native expressions. Dominguez compares this to searching through “a filing cabinet of two vocabularies” — the words aren’t lost, just slower to retrieve. Grammar, particularly tense usage, shows more adaptability. A 2023 study confirmed Spanish speakers in England maintained proper present tense usage after 15 years, despite English influence. The phenomenon also appears differently in special populations. Bilingual individuals with dementia (痴呆)often experience “language reversion,” unexpectedly returning to their native tongue despite decades of using another language. This suggests childhood language acquisition creates deep neurological connections that persist throughout life. Interestingly, the attrition process can be reversed through re-immersion in the native language environment. The brain demonstrates remarkable plasticity in reactivating seemingly “forgotten” language knowledge, though recovery time varies by individual and circumstances. 12. According to the passage, what is “native language attrition”? A. The complete loss of one’s first language. B. A brain disorder affecting language processing. C. The gradual weakening of native language skills. D. A temporary difficulty in speaking any language. 13. Who is most likely to forget their native language completely? A. A 10-year-old immigrant. B. A college exchange student. C. A bilingual business executive. D. A 5-year-old international adoptee. 14. What does the underlined word “retrieve” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Call up. B. Bring in. C. Go away. D. Take off. 15. What does “language reversion” in bilingual dementia patients suggest? A. Dementia improves language flexibility. B. Attrition is unavoidable in elderly populations. C. Patients intentionally reject their second language. D. Childhood language learning creates lasting brain connections. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The path to becoming emotionally intelligent is very tough and not everyone is able to do it.

As I handed in my final assignment and saw it was graded A, a sense of pride and satisfaction washed over me. Little did I know that my accomplishments had not gone unnoticed by my families, who had been closely observing my progress. At the first day of summer vacation, my mother told me excitedly that we would pay a visit to Marco the next day to cheer for my progress in academic study. When I got the good news, I felt on top of the world and could not hold back my high spirits. As I lay in bed that night, a mix of anticipation and delight welled up in my heart, and I slid into a dream-filled sleep, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the coming adventure. After we arrived in Marco, my parents said that we would first visit the Marco tower. Marco Tower, built in the late 19th century, is a historic landmark that showcases the rich architectural heritage of the city. It is also considered one of the top tourist attractions in the region. Upon hearing the inspiring news, I bounced up and down with joy. But then I felt a bit uneasy because of my fear of heights. Inside the lift, my palms grew sweaty as the anxiety consumed me. I paced back and forth in the tower lift, unsure of whether I would have the courage. After the lift reached the specific floor, I gasped (倒吸一口气) in horror. The floor here was made of glass, so one could appreciate the height of the tower and take a real adventure. Seeing my family both take out their phones to shoot the grand views, I felt under pressure. Then my mother smiled at me and said delightedly, “Just take it easy and you can do it.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I didn’t know whether to stay or not. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was totally struck by the height of the tower. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2024—2025学年度下学期期中考试高二试题 英语 考试时间：120分钟 满分：150分 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 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．What color is Amy’s hair?
