Eventually came the day.We stepped onto the stage and started our performance. We played probably the best show of our lives.We hardly missed a note on any of our songs,even the ones that we'd only recently-learned.Everything was perfect.However, we couldn't enjoy our performance.As each song finished,there was a short pause. This was the time when the audience would normally applaud.We didn't expect thundering applause or standing cheers.But polite applause is usually a given,even if the audience doesn't like you.We were getting nothing.After forty-five minutes we decided to end our set early. The entertainment director,however,insisted we finish.She explained that most audience were suffering from severe physical or mental disabilities and many of them were elders,in their sixties or seventies.They didn't know or couldn't clap.Though none of us really believed her,we returned to the stage,deciding to honor our word and finish the show.Eventually,the show came to an end and we gratefully packed up our instruments.We had still received no applause,not even when we said good night While we were packing,the director asked us to go back to the hall.We didn't want to do it,but we felt obligated.After all,it was a charity event.To my surprise,at least fifty people,ranging in age from ten to seventy,had gathered by the stage.They wanted to thank us.Some shook our hands,and one small girl even asked me for my 高二英语试题第2页（共12页) signature.Several told us that we were the best band that had played for them in years. We couldn't believe it.They loved us! Though I quit music later,no cheering crowd ever matched the quiet gratitude of that night.The silence was not a sign of dislike but of awe and enjoyment.It was a lesson I never forgot. fode9 hoinil o neg 947.B4,96 4.What does the word"ecstatic"probably mean in Para.1? 400的i张c9性 A.Excited.B.Impatient.C.Nervous. 501幅 D.Curious. 5.Why did the band decide to end their performance early? 01i51125电-m A.They didn't perform very well.

This hypothesis sugeststhatover-ependen on digita devices weakens conitive( )abilities,particularly in older adults.However,the study,conducted by neuropsychologists Jared Benge and Michael Scullin,found no evidence to support this hypothesis.Instead,it revealed that the use of computers,smartphones,and the Internet among individuals over 50 is associated with a reduced risk of cognitive decline. The study employed a meta-analysis approach,combining data from 57 previous studies involving over 411,000 adults.It found that higher technology use was linked to a 58%reduction in the risk of cognitive decline,even when the effect of other things known to contribute to cognitive decline,such as socioeconomic status and other health factors were taken into account.Meanwhile,this benefit is comparable to or stronger than other known protective factors,such as physical activity and maintaining healthy blood pressure. These findings are encouraging.But we still can't say technology use causes better cognitive function.More research is needed to see if these findings can be applied to different groups of people,especially those from low and middle income countries,and to understand why this relationship might occur.Meanwhile,with our interaction with technology constantly changing,future research will need to address both the benefits and potential downsides of technology,especially for younger generations,to ensure that we can take full advantage of its advantages while minimizing risks. 12.What can be inferred about the term"digital dementia"based on the text? A.It is a proven consequence of natural aging processes. B.It refers to cognitive decline caused by overuse of digital devices. C.It describes technology's ability to enhance memory in older adults. D.It highlights better cognitive function caused by social media overuse. 13.What do the results of the new study indicate? A.Younger generation benefits more from technology use. B.Technology use in the old works well in reducing cognitive decline. C.Technology use is the most effective way to prevent cognitive decline. D.Physical activity is less important than technology use for cognitive health. 14.What is the author's attitude towards the new study? A.Objective. B.Positive.C.Doubtful. D.Negative. 15.What is the author's purpose to write the text? A.To explore the influence of digital technology on life. B.To argue against the use of technology in older adults. C.To discuss how technology can support cognitive health in aging. D.To compare the different methods of maintaining cognitive abilities. 高二英语试题第5页（共12页) 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10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 Art of Balanced Living In a time controlled by quick solutions and popular trends,real health lies in balancing the care of body,mind and spirit through lasting habits.Here's how to build a healthy lifestyle.

Mindful Technology Use:The Final Piece 20,like creating"tech-free zones"during meals or using apps to track screen time.This full integration (reshapes daily habits.A 2023 Stanford experiment showed participants avoiding screens 2 hours before bed had 31%less stress-eating, linking less device use to better eating habits. A.Using technology thoughtfully means efficiency B.Using technology mindfully means setting limits C.One of them is to create a"digital break"before bed D.This hormone helps lower blood pressure and improve heart health E.A balanced approach means enjoying different foods without strict rules F.Extreme workouts are proven to burn more calories than moderate exercise G.But many people focus on intense workouts while ignoring daily movement 高二英语试题第6页（共12页) 第三部分语言运用（共六节，满分50分） 第一节完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 闲读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处 的最佳选项。 The Lighthouse Keeper's Gift Onafogymoming,l7-yearoldClaasetoutophotogreapholdiehausasaoag the Maine Her od camera,21from herateather, passedown for yars,had ord famousplaces worwide.But hisriu teach her that true discovery lies beyond the lens(镜头)， As Clara 22 the rocky path to Windward Lighthouse,thick mist made her ose her way.Her phone died,and the tide began to23 Panicking,she oiced faint candlelight in an old cottage.An elderly man appeared,his face24 with deep wrinkles like lines carved in wood.
